The endocannabinoid 2-AG protects the blood–brain barrier after closed head injury and inhibits mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines

Endocannabinoids are involved in neuroprotection through numerous biochemical pathways. We have shown that the endocannabinoid 2- arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) is released in mouse brain after closed head injury (CHI), and…
