Is cB2 cannabinoid receptor involved in the anti-inflammatory effects of leptin in a model of traumatic brain injury?
Since some of the beneficial effects of leptin were not evident in the presence of AM630, our results suggest that CB2 receptor might be involved in the full expression of the neuroprotective effects of the hormone. These findings open new avenues for the study of leptin as a therapeutic treatment for TBI and enhance the importance of CB2 receptor in TBI pathophysiology and recovery.
The Moodle platform is feasible and effective, enthusing medical students to learn, improving immersion in the urology clinical rotation and encouraging the spontaneous peer assisted learning. Future studies should expand objective evaluations of knowledge acquisition and retention.
