Endocannabinoids as a novel therapeutic platform
The neuropsychological aspects of endocannabinoid based neuroprotection has emerged as a mature research area. My current research aim to investigate methods for exploiting the endocannabinoids platform for neurocognitive therapy.
Intracellular delivery of synaptamide to neurons by endocannabinoids
This notebook propose a experimental method for delivery of DHA to hippocampal stem/progenitor cells using endocannabinoid-mediated retrograde signaling.
Synaptogenic effects of DHA on neurotransmission, a putative endocannabinoid induced by THC
P2X7 receptor mediate synaptogenic DHA signaling and intracellular signal transduction pathways relevant to PPAR-induced neural differentiation. Hence, intracellular THC delivery may induce PPAR-dependent pathways for DHA-mediated neural differentiation and proliferation of hippocampal progenitor cells through modulation of P2X7 receptor.
