Smad3-targeted therapy protects against cisplatin-induced AKI by attenuating programmed cell death and inflammation via a NOX4-dependent mechanism
Cannabinoid receptors are also activated by endogenous ligands, the en-docannabinoids, a family of endogenous arachidonic acid derivatives, including N-arachidonylethanolamide (anandamide) and the 2-arachidonoylglycerol which is synthesized by the cell membrane (Sugiura et al., 2002)
