PRIMARY STUDY
Potential use for chronic pain: Poly(Ethylene Glycol)-Poly(Lactic-Co-Glycolic Acid) nanoparticles enhance the effects of Cannabis-Based terpenes on calcium influx in TRPV1-Expressing cells
Key Findings: Resulting data led the authors to conclude that terpene-encapsulated poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (i.e., β-myrcene, β-caryophyllene, and nerolidol) may be novel therapeutics compounds in the treatment of chronic pain.
