Journal Article
Karwad, M. A., Couch, D. G., Theophilidou, E., Sarmad, S., Barrett, D. A., Larvin, M., …O'Sullivan, S. (2017). The role of CB1 in intestinal permeability and inflammation. FASEB Journal, 31(8), 3267-3277. https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.201601346R

The endocannabinoid system has previously been shown to play a role in the permeability and inflammatory response of the human gut. The goal of our study was to determine the effects of endogenous anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) o... Read More about The role of CB1 in intestinal permeability and inflammation.

Oleoylethanolamine and palmitoylethanolamine modulate intestinal permeability in vitro via TRPV1 and PPAR? (2016)
Journal Article
Karwad, M. A., Macpherson, T., Wang, B., Theophilidou, E., Sarmad, S., Barrett, D. A., …O'Sullivan, S. (2017). Oleoylethanolamine and palmitoylethanolamine modulate intestinal permeability in vitro via TRPV1 and PPARα. FASEB Journal, 31(2), 469-481. https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.201500132

Cannabinoids modulate intestinal permeability through cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1). The endocannabinoid-like compounds oleoylethanolamine (OEA) and palmitoylethanolamine (PEA) play an important role in digestive regulation, and we hypothesized they w...
