✨Exciting to see clinical efficacy of peripheral #CB1R antagonism with #monlunabant. It will expand armamentarium for #obesity with a different mechanism than incretins (#GLP1 #GIP) ⚡️Similar efficacies in all tested oral doses encourage testing lower doses to optimize safety.

Our research shows anandamide in blood has biomarker functions in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. It not only captures early stage fibrosis progression in lung but also informs on therapeutic effect for CB1R antagonism.This may help to design effective anti-fibrotic therapy @CureHPS
Anandamide Is a Potential Blood Biomarker of Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome Pulmonary Fibrosis This study suggests that circulating anandamide levels begin to increase with the fibrotic lung process even at subclinical stages @resatcinar @IRPatNIH 🔗 tinyurl.com/2p9nrru7

Congrats to @pommerollelenny and @ctm_dijon team for this impactful work! This work not only endorsed CD206 expressing macrophages as a profibrotic macrophages in progressive #pulmonaryfibrosis but also elegantly provides an imaging tool to use biomarker function of CD206 imaging
