the cannabinoidergic system acquired a reputation as the most abundant g-protein coupled receptor in the cns that acts as retrograde modulator of neurotransmitter release. recently, endocannabinoids (ecbs) have been highlighted as neurodevelopmental signaling cues that exert a regulatory role in brain development. the interruption in ecb system elements (including receptors and enzymes of synth...

The pharmacological interaction between cannabinoidergic system and vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) channels has been investigated in various conditions such as pain and anxiety. In some brain structure including hippocampus, CB1 and TRPV1 receptors coexist and their activation produces opposite effect on excitability of neurons. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that TRPV1 channel is involved i...

The molecular composition of the cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptor complex beyond the classical G-protein signaling components is not known. Using proteomics on mouse cortex in vivo, we pulled down proteins interacting with CB1 in neurons and show that the CB1 receptor assembles with multiple members of the WAVE1 complex and the RhoGTPase Rac1 and modulates their activity. Activation levels of ...

OBJECTIVES Opioids and cannabinoids are two important compounds that have been shown to influence the activity of magnocellular neurons (MCNs) of supraoptic nucleus (SON). The interaction between opioidergic and cannabinoidergic systems in various structures of the brain and spinal cord is now well established, but not in the MCNs of SON. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, whole cell patch ...
