Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 16242629
Year 2005
Title Decreased endocannabinoid levels in the brain and beneficial effects of agents activating cannabinoid and/or vanilloid receptors in a rat model of multiple sclerosis

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression down-regulation
Risk type Disease risk
Result We recorded a marked reduction of both anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol in motor related regions (striatum, midbrain) but also in other regions such as the brainstem, diencephalon, hippocampus, limbic forebrain, and cerebral cortex.
Mechanism/Pathway a reduction of CB1 receptor binding and mRNA levels, mainly in the basal ganglia , and a region-dependent down-regulation of endocannabinoid transmission in EAE rats
