[ 1 ] - Carbon nanotubes provide longer lasting gastroprotective effects for anandamide in stress-induced gastric ulcer in rat
Introduction: Anandamide (AEA) has shown a wide spectrum of pharmacological activities including the effects against the peptic ulcer, meanwhile, the poor solubility or short half-life may negatively affect the effectiveness of this valuable cannabinoid. Based on the superior properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for controlled drug delivery, we aimed to prepare AEA-CNTs complex and evaluat...
[ 2 ] - Ferulic acid, a phenolic compound with therapeutic effects in neuropsychiatric disorders, stimulates the production of nerve growth factor and endocannabinoids in rat brain
Introduction: Ferulic acid, a phenolic phytochemical with neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, has shown promising antidepressant-like effects in behavioral studies; however, its mechanism(s) of action have not been fully understood. Based on the contribution of nerve growth factor (NGF) and endocannabinoid signaling (eCBs) to the emotional or antidepressant activ...
[ 3 ] - Aerosol delivery of ferulic acid-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers: A promising treatment approach against the respiratory disorders
Introduction: Treatment of lung diseases is one of the major healthcare challenges. Ferulic acid (FA), a phenolic compound with well-established antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown promising therapeutic potential against the pulmonary disorders; however, low bioavailability may negatively affect its efficiency. This, prompted us to incorporate FA into the nanostructured ...
[ 4 ] - Carbon nanotube-anandamide complex exhibits sustained protective effects in an in vitro model of stroke
Introduction: The therapeutic potential of anandamide (AEA) for the neurological disorders may be negatively affected by its short half-life or poor solubility. The superior properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for controlled drug delivery, prompted us to design AEA-CNTs complex and assess its effect in in vitro model of ischemic stroke. Methods: In this experimental study, a multi-walled CNT...
