Cannabinoid receptor type 2 agonist JWH-133 deteriorates the liver toxicity induced by cypermethrin
Abstract:IntroductionCYP is a synthetic type II pyrethroid insecticide widely used for the control of ectoparasites of domestic animals and home pest control owing to its high insecticidal potential and lower mammalian toxicity (1). CYP shows its effect via the voltage-dependent Na + and Ca 2+ channels in the membrane of nerve cells (2-4). There is an increasing amount of evidence suggesting toxic effects on nontarget organisms in chronic exposure of CYP (5,6). Several studies have shown that CYP causes oxidative stres… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
