IMLFF Research Published in the European Journal of Pain

Preclinical stage biopharmaceutical company InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CSE: IN) (OTCQB: IMLFF) this morning announced the publication of company-sponsored research in the European Journal of Pain. The article, titled ‘Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol decreases masticatory muscle sensitization in female rats through peripheral cannabinoid receptor activation’, highlights results from a study co-sponsored by InMed and the MITACS Elevate Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. “Developing a topically-applied product that can provide localized relief of chronic and/or acute severe pain, without central side effects, remains one of the ‘holy grails’ in the field of analgesia,” Dr. Sazzad Hossain, chief scientific officer of InMed, stated in the news release. “This study sets the stage for advanced work in various pain models to explore the role of several cannabinoid compounds, applied as topical agents, to target the CB1 and other pain-related receptors.” The study results, which can be reviewed at http://nnw.fm/lRwM5, suggest that peripheral application of cannabinoids targeting the natural endocannabinoid receptor system may provide a valuable approach in treating severe pain.
