Cannabinoid CB2 receptors are involved in the regulation of fibrogenesis during skin wound repair in mice.

“Studies have shown that cannabinoid CB2 receptors are involved in wound repair, however, its physiological roles in fibrogenesis remain to be elucidated.

In the present study, the capacity of cannabinoid CB2 receptors in the regulation of skin fibrogenesis during skin wound healing was investigated.

These results indicated that cannabinoid CB2 receptors modulate fibrogenesis and the TGF‑β/Smad profibrotic signaling pathway during skin wound repair in the mouse.”
