  • Régulation De L'inflammation Par Les Lipides Bioactifs : Interactions Biosynthétiques Et Fonctionnelles Entre Les Endocannabinoïdes Et Les Éicosanoïdes
    Régulation de l'inflammation par les lipides bioactifs : interactions biosynthétiques et fonctionnelles entre les endocannabinoïdes et les éicosanoïdes Thèse Caroline Turcotte Doctorat en microbiologie-immunologie Philosophiæ doctor (Ph. D.) Québec, Canada © Caroline Turcotte, 2019 Régulation de l’inflammation par les lipides bioactifs : interactions biosynthétiques et fonctionnelles entre les endocannabinoïdes et les éicosanoïdes Thèse Caroline Turcotte Sous la direction de : Nicolas Flamand, directeur de recherche Marie-Renée Blanchet, codirectrice de recherche Résumé Les maladies inflammatoires chroniques sont un fardeau de santé important à travers le monde. Les traitements actuellement disponibles soulagent la douleur et l’inflammation, mais leurs effets secondaires rendent leur utilisation à long terme risquée. À la lumière de cette problématique, la communauté scientifique s’intéresse au potentiel d’anti-inflammatoires naturels comme les endocannabinoïdes. Les endocannabinoïdes sont des lipides endogènes qui activent les récepteurs cannabinoïdes (CB1 et CB2). Ils régulent ainsi divers processus physiologiques tels l’appétit, l’adipogénèse et la nociception. Les deux endocannabinoïdes les mieux caractérisés, le 2-AG et l’AEA, peuvent également moduler l’inflammation en activant le récepteur CB2 à la surface des cellules immunitaires. Les souris déficientes pour le récepteur CB2 présentent un phénotype inflammatoire exacerbé, suggérant que ce récepteur est anti-inflammatoire. Cependant, le rôle des endocannabinoïdes dans l’inflammation est beaucoup plus complexe puisqu’ils peuvent être métabolisés en une grande variété de médiateurs lipidiques de l’inflammation. Leur voie de dégradation principale est leur hydrolyse en acide arachidonique (AA), qui sert de précurseur à la biosynthèse d’éicosanoïdes pro-inflammatoires comme le leucotriène B4 et la prostaglandine E2. Ils peuvent également être métabolisés directement par certaines enzymes impliquées dans la synthèse d’éicosanoïdes, pour générer des médiateurs comme les prostaglandines-glycérol (PG-G).

  • An in Vivo Examination of the Differences Between Rapid
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN An in vivo examination of the diferences between rapid cardiovascular collapse and prolonged hypotension induced by snake venom Rahini Kakumanu1, Barbara K. Kemp-Harper1, Anjana Silva 1,2, Sanjaya Kuruppu3, Geofrey K. Isbister 1,4 & Wayne C. Hodgson1* We investigated the cardiovascular efects of venoms from seven medically important species of snakes: Australian Eastern Brown snake (Pseudonaja textilis), Sri Lankan Russell’s viper (Daboia russelii), Javanese Russell’s viper (D. siamensis), Gaboon viper (Bitis gabonica), Uracoan rattlesnake (Crotalus vegrandis), Carpet viper (Echis ocellatus) and Puf adder (Bitis arietans), and identifed two distinct patterns of efects: i.e. rapid cardiovascular collapse and prolonged hypotension. P. textilis (5 µg/kg, i.v.) and E. ocellatus (50 µg/kg, i.v.) venoms induced rapid (i.e. within 2 min) cardiovascular collapse in anaesthetised rats. P. textilis (20 mg/kg, i.m.) caused collapse within 10 min. D. russelii (100 µg/kg, i.v.) and D. siamensis (100 µg/kg, i.v.) venoms caused ‘prolonged hypotension’, characterised by a persistent decrease in blood pressure with recovery. D. russelii venom (50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg, i.m.) also caused prolonged hypotension. A priming dose of P. textilis venom (2 µg/kg, i.v.) prevented collapse by E. ocellatus venom (50 µg/kg, i.v.), but had no signifcant efect on subsequent addition of D. russelii venom (1 mg/kg, i.v). Two priming doses (1 µg/kg, i.v.) of E. ocellatus venom prevented collapse by E. ocellatus venom (50 µg/kg, i.v.). B. gabonica, C. vegrandis and B.

  • Regulation of Brain Reward by the Endocannabinoid System: a Critical Review of Behavioral Studies in Animals
    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014, 20, 000-000 1 Regulation of Brain Reward by the Endocannabinoid System: A Critical Review of Behavioral Studies in Animals S. Vlachou2 and G. Panagis1,* 1Laboratory of Behavioral Neuroscience, Department of Psychology, School of Social Sciences, University of Crete, 74100 Rethym- non, Crete, Greece; 2School of Nursing and Human Sciences, Faculty of Science and Health, Dublin City University, Glasnevin, Dub- lin 9, Ireland Abstract: The endocannabinoid system has been implicated in the regulation of a variety of physiological processes, including a crucial involvement in brain reward systems and the regulation of motivational processes. Behavioral studies have shown that cannabinoid re- ward may involve the same brain circuits and similar brain mechanisms with other drugs of abuse, such as nicotine, cocaine, alcohol and heroin, as well as natural rewards, such as food, water and sucrose, although the conditions under which cannabinoids exert their reward- ing effects may be more limited. The purpose of the present review is to briefly describe and evaluate the behavioral and pharmacological research concerning the major components of the endocannabinoid system and reward processes. Special emphasis is placed on data re- ceived from four procedures used to test the effects of the endocannabinoid system on brain reward in animals; namely, the intracranial self-stimulation paradigm, the self-administration procedure, the conditioned place preference procedure and the drug-discrimination pro- cedure. The effects of cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptor agonists, antagonists and endocannabinoid modulators in these procedures are examined. Further, the involvement of CB1 and CB2 receptors, as well the fatty acid amid hydrolase (FAAH) en- zyme in reward processes is investigated through presentation of respective genetic ablation studies in mice.
