We report a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies that assessed the antinociceptive efficacy of cannabinoids, cannabis-based medicines, and endocannabinoid system modulators on ...pain-associated behavioural outcomes in animal models of pathological or injury-related persistent pain. In April 2019, we systematically searched 3 online databases and used crowd science and machine learning to identify studies for inclusion. We calculated a standardised mean difference effect size for each comparison and performed a random-effects meta-analysis. We assessed the impact of study design characteristics and reporting of mitigations to reduce the risk of bias. We meta-analysed 374 studies in which 171 interventions were assessed for antinociceptive efficacy in rodent models of pathological or injury-related pain. Most experiments were conducted in male animals (86%). Antinociceptive efficacy was most frequently measured by attenuation of hypersensitivity to evoked limb withdrawal. Selective cannabinoid type 1, cannabinoid type 2, nonselective cannabinoid receptor agonists (including delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha agonists (predominantly palmitoylethanolamide) significantly attenuated pain-associated behaviours in a broad range of inflammatory and neuropathic pain models. Fatty acid amide hydrolase inhibitors, monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitors, and cannabidiol significantly attenuated pain-associated behaviours in neuropathic pain models but yielded mixed results in inflammatory pain models. The reporting of criteria to reduce the risk of bias was low; therefore, the studies have an unclear risk of bias. The value of future studies could be enhanced by improving the reporting of methodological criteria, the clinical relevance of the models, and behavioural assessments. Notwithstanding, the evidence supports the hypothesis of cannabinoid-induced analgesia.
The mCAT-1 gene encodes a basic amino acid transporter that also acts as the receptor for murine ecotropic leukemia viruses. Targeted mutagenesis in embryonic stem cells has been used to introduce a ...germ-line null mutation into this gene. This mutation removes a domain critical for virus binding and inactivates amino acid transport activity. Homozygous mutant pups generated from these cells were approximately 25% smaller than normal littermates, very anemic, and died on the day of birth. Peripheral blood from homozygotes contained 50% fewer red blood cells, reduced hemoglobin levels, and showed a pronounced normoblastosis. Histological analyses of bone marrow, spleen, and liver showed a decrease in both erythroid progenitors and mature red blood cells. Mutant fetal liver cells behaved normally in in vitro hematopoietic colony-forming assays but generated an anemia when transplanted into irradiated C.B.-17 SCID mice. Furthermore, reconstitution of the white cell compartment of SCID mice by mutant fetal liver cells was less complete than that observed with a mixed population of wild-type and heterozygous fetal liver cells. Primary embryo fibroblasts from mutant mice were completely resistant to ecotropic retrovirus infection. Thus, mCAT-1 not only appears to be the sole receptor for a group of murine ecotropic retroviruses associated with hematological disease but also plays a critical role in both hematopoiesis and growth control during mouse development.
