Scientists have identified three acidic cannabinoids in cannabis that reduces seizure activity in mouse models of Dravet syndrome.
New findings reveal exercise increases levels of endocannabinoids in the body. The findings may explain some of the beneficial effects of exercise on the brain and body.
Cannabidiol (CBD) simultaneously acts on two targets in pain-sensing neurons. Researchers are developing new drugs that have similar actions to CBD that may be better absorbed by the body.
Cannabidiol treatment helped reduce anxiety severity by, on average, 42.6% in young adults with treatment-resistant anxiety, a new study reports.
Study finds no evidence that cannabidiol (CBD) reduces the negative effects of cannabis.
Cannabidiol, or CBD, blocks the ability of lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) to amplify neural signals in the hippocampus. LPI weakens the signals that counter seizures, further explaining the value of CBD to treat epilepsy.
Compounds based on CBD can reduce fentanyl opioid binding and boost the effects of naloxone, a fast-acting opioid antidote.
