Cannabidiol Modulates Neuroinflammatory Markers in a PTSD Model Conducted on Female Rats
Portugalov A, Peled G, Zorin S, Akirav I
Biomolecules . 2024 Nov; 14(11). PMID: 39595561
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating neuropsychiatric condition closely linked to neuroinflammation, with a higher prevalence in women. Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown promise as a potential...

FAAH Inhibition Reverses Depressive-like Behavior and Sex-Specific Neuroinflammatory Alterations Induced by Early Life Stress
Portugalov A, Akirav I
Cells . 2024 Nov; 13(22). PMID: 39594629
Early life stress (ELS) increases predisposition to major depressive disorder (MDD), with neuroinflammation playing a crucial role. This study investigated the long-term effects of the fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH)...
3.
Early life stress induces decreased expression of CB1R and FAAH and epigenetic changes in the medial prefrontal cortex of male rats
Demaili A, Portugalov A, Maroun M, Akirav I, Braun K, Bock J
Front Cell Neurosci . 2024 Nov; 18:1474992. PMID: 39503008
Several studies in both animal models and in humans have provided substantial evidence that early life stress (ELS) induces long-term changes in behavior and brain function, making it a significant...

Epigenetic (re)programming of gene expression changes of CB1R and FAAH in the medial prefrontal cortex in response to early life and adolescence stress exposure
Demaili A, Portugalov A, Dudai M, Maroun M, Akirav I, Braun K, et al.
Front Cell Neurosci . 2023 Mar; 17:1129946. PMID: 36909279
Environmental factors, including stress, that are experienced during early life (ELS) or adolescence are potential risk factors for the development of behavioral and mental disorders later in life. The endocannabinoid...

FAAH Inhibition Restores Early Life Stress-Induced Alterations in PFC microRNAs Associated with Depressive-Like Behavior in Male and Female Rats
Portugalov A, Zaidan H, Gaisler-Salomon I, Hillard C, Akirav I
Int J Mol Sci . 2022 Dec; 23(24). PMID: 36555739
Early life stress (ELS) increases predisposition to depression. We compared the effects of treatment with the fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor URB597, and the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor paroxetine,...

Do Adolescent Exposure to Cannabinoids and Early Adverse Experience Interact to Increase the Risk of Psychiatric Disorders: Evidence from Rodent Models
Portugalov A, Akirav I
Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Jan; 22(2). PMID: 33450928
There have been growing concerns about the protracted effects of cannabis use in adolescents on emotion and cognition outcomes, motivated by evidence of growing cannabis use in adolescents, evidence linking...

Inhibition of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase (FAAH) During Adolescence and Exposure to Early Life Stress may Exacerbate Depression-like Behaviors in Male and Female Rats
Alteba S, Portugalov A, Hillard C, Akirav I
Neuroscience . 2020 Dec; 455:89-106. PMID: 33359656
Early-life stress (ELS) is associated with later onset of depression. Early cannabis use may be a risk factor that interacts with environmental factors to increase the risk of psychopathologies. We...
