A clearer understanding of the mechanisms underlying the development and progression of diabetic neuropathy is likely to indicate new directions for the treatment of this complication of diabetes. In the present study we investigated the expression o... Read More about Expression of Cannabinoid CB1 receptors in models of diabetic neuropathy.

Cannabidiol lacks the vanilloid VR1-mediated vasorespiratory effects of capsaicin and anandamide in anaesthetised rats (2004)
Journal Article
McQueen, D. S., Bond, S. M., Smith, P. J., Balali-Mood, K., & Smart, D. (2004). Cannabidiol lacks the vanilloid VR1-mediated vasorespiratory effects of capsaicin and anandamide in anaesthetised rats. European Journal of Pharmacology, 491(2-3), 181-189. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejphar.2004.03.045

The results of vasorespiratory studies in rats anaesthetised with pentobarbital show that (±) cannabidiol, a cannabinoid that lacks psychotropic actions and is inactive at cannabinoid (CB) receptors, does not affect respiration or blood pressure when...

Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat. (2001)
Journal Article
Smith, P. J. W., Smith, P., & McQueen, D. S. (2001). Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat. British Journal of Pharmacology, 134(3), 655-663. doi:10.1038/sj.bjp.0704296

We tested the hypothesis that sensory nerves innervating blood vessels play a role in the local and systemic regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory (CVR) systems. We measured CVR reflexes evoked by administration of anandamide (86 – 863 nmo... Read More about Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat..
