Expression of Cannabinoid Receptor GPR55 in Human Gingival Fibroblasts and Anti-inflammatory Effects of Cannabidiol via GPR55

Cannabidiol (CBD) in cannabis has an anti-inflammatory effect, and its receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55), has been suggested to be involved in the regulation of inflammation. Here, we investigated GPR55 expression in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and anti-inflammatory effects of CB...

Zusammenfassung:Cannabidiol (CBD) in cannabis has an anti-inflammatory effect, and its receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55), has been suggested to be involved in the regulation of inflammation. Here, we investigated GPR55 expression in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and anti-inflammatory effects of CBD via GPR55.GPR55 expression and localization were confirmed in control, LPS-stimulated (LPS), CBD-treated and LPS-stimulated (CBD+LPS), and CBD-treated (CBD) groups. We also compared interleukin (IL) -6 and IL-8 protein production in each group.GPR55 expression levels were significantly reduced in the LPS and CBD+LPS groups (p
