A role for the endocannabinoid system in hepatic steatosis Sistema endocanabinoide y desarrollo de esteatosis hepática
(Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2014)
The endocannabinoid system (SEC) is an important modulator of several metabolic functions. This system is composed by cannabinoid receptors type 1 and 2 (RCB1 and RCB2), their endogenous ligands, known as endocannabinoids, ...
Role of polyunsaturated fatty acids, the precursors of endocannabinoids, in human obesity and diabetes development
(Bioscience Research Institute, 2010-03)
The essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) serve as precursors of the endocannabinoids (EC), bioactive lipids molecules. This article reviews the functions of the endocannabinoid system (ECS), and their relationship ...
Hyperactivity induced by the dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonist quinpirole is attenuated by inhibitors of endocannabinoid degradation in mice
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-04)
The present study was designed to investigate the effect of pharmacological inhibition of endocannabinoid degradation on behavioural actions of the dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonist quinpirole in male C57Bl/6J mice. In ...
Participación del sistema endocanabinoide en el desarrollo de obesidad

Key Aspects to Consider about Beneficial and Harmful Effects on the Central Nervous System by the Endocannabinoid Modulation Linked to New Cardiovascular Therapies
(Remedy Publications, 2019-12)
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is closely related to the central nervous system (CNS) and exerts a promising therapeutic potential on the cardiovascular system, mainly through its neuromodulatory, neuroprotective, and ...
Fibronectin modulates the endocannabinoid system through the cAMP/PKA pathway during human sperm capacitation
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2019-02)
Fibronectin (Fn) enhances human sperm capacitation via the cAMP/PKA pathway, and the endocannabinoid system participates in this process. Moreover, Fn has been linked to endocannabinoid system components in different ...
The Endocannabinoid System Is Present in Rod Outer Segments from Retina and Is Modulated by Light
(Springer, 2019-04-24)
The aim of the present research was to evaluate if the endocannabinoid system (enzymes and receptors) could bemodulated by light in rod outer segment (ROS) from bovine retina. First, we analyzed endocannabinoid ...
Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Differentially Modulate Cell Proliferation and Endocannabinoid System in Two Human Cancer Lines
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017-01)
Background and Aims Evidence suggests that quantity and quality of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) play a role in the development of cancer. However, the mechanisms involved in this interaction(s) are not clear. ...
