Neuroprotective Actions of Cannabinoids in the Bovine Isolated Retina: Role of Hydrogen Sulfide by Leah Bush, Anthonia Okolie, Jenaye Robinson, Fatima Muili, Catherine A. Opere, Sunny E. Ohia, Ya Fatou Njie Mbye

“…<b>Purpose:</b> The aim of the present study was two-fold: (a) to examine the neuroprotective action of cannabinoids [methanandamide and 2-arachidonyl glycerol (2-AG)] against hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)-induced oxidative damage in the isolated bovine retina and (b) to evaluate the role of endogenously biosynthesized hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) in the inhibitory actions of cannabinoids on the oxidative stress in the bovine retina. …”
