The role of endogenous cannabinoid and putative cannabinoid receptors in substance use disorders and in the modulation pain, anxiety and immune function.

Dr. Console-Bram’s previous research efforts focused on the elucidating the molecular mechanisms involved in signal transduction of established cannabinoid (CB1 and CB2), and putative cannabinoid receptors (GPR18 and GPR55), in addition to ligand development for the putative cannabinoid receptors. Her research contributed to the understanding of biased agonism and differential second messengers involved in established and putative cannabinoid receptor signaling. The physiologic roles of both established and putative cannabinoid receptors remain an ongoing research interest of Dr. Console-Bram with respect to pain, anxiety, substance use disorders and immune cell function.
