Researchers from Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich Detail Findings in Hypertrophy.

Researchers from Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich conducted a study on the effects of cannabis on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. The research found that cannabinoid signaling may interfere with cardiomyocyte contractility and hypertrophy. The study, funded by Fritz Thyssen Stiftung, suggests that GPR55 plays a crucial role in regulating cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and homeostasis, particularly in females. This research has been peer-reviewed and provides valuable insights into potential targets for addressing maladaptation in the hypertrophied heart. [Extracted from the article]
