Metabolic Messengers: endocannabinoids
Résumé
The endocannabinoid system is considered one of the most important modulatory networks in the whole organism. Research has yielded great insight on the mechanisms that link endocannabinoids and several peripheral and brain metabolic functions. Here, we provide a brief overview of the metabolic roles of endocannabinoids in tissue-, cellular- and subcellular-dependent mechanisms. We highlight past discoveries and future open questions with a special focus on CB1 receptor-dependent astroglial and mitochondrial metabolic processes.
