Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major active component of marijuana, has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system during stress conditions, but the defence mechanism is still unclear. The present study was designed to investigate the central (CB1) and the peripheral (CB2) cannabinoid
The effects of pulmonary artery infusion of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9-THC), 0.5 mg/kg, have been studied in four pregnant sheep. Cardiac output (CO) decreased from a baseline of 4.49 +/- 0.91 l/min (mean +/- s.e.m.) to 4.19 +/- 0.87 at 3 min, 3.69 +/- 0.76 at 5 min, and 3.35 +/- 0.77 at
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the respiratory effects of cannabinoids and their influence on cardiovascular homeostasis.In spontaneously breathing urethane-anaesthetised rats, intravenous injection of the two synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists WIN55212-2 and CP55940
Cannabis use in pregnancy is associated with a range of obstetrical conditions. The molecular mechanisms underlying these effects have not been elucidated but are attributed to the actions of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta9-THC). In this study, concentrations of Delta9-THC equivalent to those
Prenatal cannabis exposure (PCE) influences human brain development, but it is challenging to model PCE using animals and current cell culture techniques. Here, we developed a one-stop microfluidic platform to assemble and culture human cerebral organoids from human embryonic stem cells (hESC) to
