Sex‐dependent effects of maternal deprivation and adolescent cannabinoid treatment on adult rat behaviour
TLDR
The present results indicate that early MD and adolescent cannabinoid exposure exerted distinct sex‐dependent long‐term behavioural and physiological modifications that could predispose to the development of certain neuropsychiatric disorders, though no synergistic effects were found.
Possible involvement of endocannabinoids in the increase of morphine consumption in maternally deprived rat
Adolescent exposure to nicotine and/or the cannabinoid agonist CP 55,940 induces gender-dependent long-lasting memory impairments and changes in brain nicotinic and CB1 cannabinoid receptors
TLDR
Both, nicotine and cannabinoid treatments induced a long-lasting increase in CB1 receptor activity (CP-stimulated GTPγS binding) in male rats and the nicotine treatment also induced a decrease in nicotinic receptor density in the prefrontal cortex of females.
PROTECTIVE EFFECT OF CELECOXIB ON NICOTINE TOXICITY AND ALTERATIONS IN TRACE ELEMENT LEVELS
TLDR
It was found that weights of the liver in the nicotine group were significantly lower than that in the control group, and increases of tissue Cu and Zn levels and serum ZN levels may depend on stimulation of defence system against nicotine exposure.
Adolescence is a period of development characterized by short- and long-term vulnerability to the rewarding effects of nicotine and reduced sensitivity to the anorectic effects of this drug
Efficacy of a dose range of surinabant, a cannabinoid receptor blocker, for smoking cessation: a randomized controlled clinical trial
TLDR
Surinabant did not improve smoking cessation rates compared with placebo, but had a small effect on reducing post-cessation weight gain.
Cannabinoid effects on CB1 receptor density in the adolescent brain: An autoradiographic study using the synthetic cannabinoid HU210
TLDR
The pattern of CB1 receptor downregulation was similar to that observed in adults treated with cannabinoids in previous studies; however, its magnitude was smaller in adolescents, which may contribute to some acute behavioral effects, the pharmacological cross‐tolerance and the long‐lasting, adverse psychological consequences of cannabinoid exposure during adolescence.
Effects of chronic nicotine on food intake and anxiety-like behaviour in CB1 knockout mice
Cigarette smoking may modify the association between cannabis use and adiposity in males
Activation of the cholinergic antiinflammatory pathway ameliorates obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance.
TLDR
It is shown that adipose tissue possesses a functional cholinergic signaling pathway that is important in mediating the antiinflammatory effect of nicotine, and inactivating this pathway in α7KO mice results in significantly increased adipOSE tissue infiltration of classically activated M1 macrophages and inflammation in α 7KO mice than their WT littermates.

Nicotine, body weight and potential implications in the treatment of obesity.
TLDR
A better understanding of the regulatory mechanisms underlying the pharmacological effects of nicotine on body weight will provide insights in identification of potential targets for the development of appropriate medicines in the treatment of obesity.
Effects of Rimonabant (SR141716) on Fasting-Induced Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis and Neuronal Activation in Lean and Obese Zucker Rats
TLDR
It is demonstrated that CB1 blockade does not prevent the hypersensitivity to food deprivation occurring at the level of HPA axis and ARC activation in the obese Zucker rats, and CB1 antagonism from exerting beneficial effects on energy and glucose metabolism.

TLDR
In Sardinian alcohol--preferring rats, in the alcohol-naive state, SR-147778 slowed the development of a preference for alcohol, and when alcohol-experienced sP rats are deprived of alcohol for 15 days, there is a large intake of alcohol on reintroduction ofcohol, and this response was almost abolished by treatment with SR- 147778.

Cannabinoid receptor signaling directly inhibits thermogenesis and alters expression of adiponectin and visfatin.
TLDR
Here, the first evidence for direct Cb1 receptor-mediated actions in brown and white adipocytes is presented, which negatively impacts thermogenesis in brown adipocytes while favoring a positive energy balance by differentially regulating the novel adipokine visfatin as well as adiponectin in white adipocyte.
Nicotinic receptor-mediated effects on appetite and food intake.
TLDR
An overview of the literature at, or near, the interface of nicotinic receptors and appetite regulation is presented and the hypothesis that the lateral hypothalamus is a particularly important locus of the anorectic effects of nicotine is presented.

Cannabinoids and the regulation of ingestive behaviour.
TLDR
The cannabinoid system appears to have an important role in the regulation of ingestive behaviour in man and animals and a number of pharmaceutical companies are developing selective CB(1) receptor antagonists for the treatment of obesity.
