Extracellular Vesicles and Endocannabinoid Signaling in Patients with COVID-19

Conclusions: EVs carry immunologically functional endocannabinoids in COVID-19 along with miRNAs which may regulate the expression of mRNA transcripts involved in the regulation of endocannabinoid signaling and metabolism. This mechanism could fine-tune and adapt endocannabinoid effects in recipient cells in relationship to the present biological context.PMID:37713293 | DOI:10.1089/can.2023.0040
