The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health is offering a grant to study minor cannabinoids and terpenes in the cannabis plant for their analgesic properties. This grant aims to support research on the potential of cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, and terpenes like myrcene and limonene to alleviate pain and improve function in patients. Interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged to explore the mechanisms underlying the pain-relieving effects of these compounds in various pain conditions. Applications should focus on basic and mechanistic studies in model organisms or human subjects to advance the understanding of minor cannabinoids and terpenes in pain management.

Description: | Through this funding opportunity announcement (FOA), the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) solicits grant research applications to study minor cannabinoids and terpenes in the cannabis plant as it relates to pain and nociception. Minor cannabinoids are defined as any and all cannabinoids from the cannabis plant other than ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol (?9-THC). Cannabinoids and terpenes of particular interest include the following: Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabigerol (CBG), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Myrcene, ?-caryophyllene, Limonene, ?-terpineol, Linalool, ?-phellandrene, ?-pinene, ?-pinene, ?-terpinene, and ?-humulene. This initiative intends to support highly innovative basic and/or mechanistic studies in appropriate model organisms and/or human subjects aiming to identify, describe and determine whether minor cannabinoids and/or terpenes can help treat pain. The mechanisms and processes underlying potential contribution of minor cannabinoids and terpenes to pain relief and functional restoration in patients with different pain conditions may be very broad. This initiative encourages interdisciplinary collaborations by experts from multiple fieldspharmacologists, chemists, physicists, physiologists, neuroscientists, psychologists, endocrinologists, immunologists, geneticists, behavioral scientists, clinicians, and others in relevant fields of inquiry. |
