Dronabinol, a synthetic agonist at cannabinoid receptors, was reported to decrease the pruritus of cholestasis, in an uncontrolled observation. We hypothesized that the reported antipruritic effect of dronabinol might have resulted from an increased threshold to experience nociception (i.e.
OBJECTIVE
Several studies have reported that endogenous opioid and cannabinoid systems may be involved in some pathophysiological changes occurring in cholestatic liver disease. It is well known that endogenous opioids and cannabinoids alter the susceptibility of experimental animals to different
Bile acid-induced apoptosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cholestatic liver disease, and its prevention is of therapeutic interest. The aim of this study was to test whether the andrographolide limits the evolution of apoptosis in a murine model of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced
This study assessed the effect of stimulation of CB2 receptors or CB1 blockade on fibrosis and apoptosis in rats subjected to bile duct ligation (BDL). It was performed in sham and BDL rats for four weeks. Fibrosis-induced rats received a CB2 receptor agonist β-caryophyllene, CB1 receptor
