Announcement
Artelo Biosciences announced the presentation of compelling new preclinical data on its Cannabidiol (CBD) and Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) cocrystal drug candidate, ART12.11, at the 35th Annual International Cannabinoid Research Society (ICRS) Symposium, taking place July 6–10 in Bloomington, Indiana.
AI Summary
Artelo Biosciences presented new preclinical data on its patented CBD and tetramethylpyrazine cocrystal drug candidate, ART12.11, at the 35th Annual International Cannabinoid Research Society Symposium in Bloomington, Indiana (July 6–10). The data show that ART12.11 has strong antidepressant-like effects in stressed animal models. In a 28-day study, the drug candidate restored normal behavioral patterns, such as pleasure and social interaction, to levels similar to those seen with the established antidepressant sertraline. Unlike sertraline, ART12.11 also improved spatial and short-term memory, suggesting added benefits for those suffering cognitive issues.
This dual-action profile positions ART12.11 as a promising next-generation treatment for depression, potentially addressing both mood and cognitive challenges in the mental health field.

Announcement
Artelo Biosciences, announced the presentation of preclinical data in an osteaoarthritis (OA) pain model on its lead fatty acid binding protein 5 (FABP5) inhibitor, ART26.12, at the 35th Annual International Cannabinoid Research Society (ICRS) Symposium, being held July 6–10 in Bloomington, Indiana.
AI Summary
Artelo Biosciences presented new preclinical data at the 35th Annual International Cannabinoid Research Society (ICRS) Symposium in Bloomington, Indiana. The data focused on its lead FABP5 inhibitor, ART26.12, which aims to treat osteoarthritis (OA) pain. The study, led by Dr. Martin Kaczocha of Stony Brook University, showed that ART26.12 significantly reduced OA pain in animal models. The research revealed that daily treatment with ART26.12 increased plasma levels of endocannabinoids such as 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and Oleoylethanolamide (OEA), which were closely linked to improved weight-bearing capacity on the affected joint. Furthermore, ART26.12 maintained its pain-relieving effects over four weeks, performing comparably to naproxen but without the tolerance issues commonly seen with chronic treatments. These promising results suggest that ART26.12 may offer a safer, long-term alternative to traditional NSAIDs for managing osteoarthritis pain.

EXCLUSIVE: Artelo Biosciences Tells Benzinga Co. Announces Publication Of New Peer-Reviewing Research Demonstrating ART26.12's Effectiveness In Treating Psoriasis
AI Summary
Artelo Biosciences recently announced an exclusive update to Benzinga regarding new peer-reviewed research published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology. The study shows that ART26.12, the company’s orally active small-molecule inhibitor of Fatty Acid Binding Protein 5 (FABP5), effectively treats psoriasis. In both laboratory (in vitro) and animal (in vivo) models, ART26.12 demonstrated results comparable to powerful immunomodulatory drugs, while potentially avoiding some of their serious side effects.
Lead scientist Dr. George Warren highlighted that the research findings support FABP5 as a promising target for psoriasis treatment. The study suggests that inhibiting FABP5, which is overexpressed in psoriasis, could reduce inflammation and abnormal skin cell growth. This new data presents ART26.12 as a potentially safer, more cost-effective option for managing psoriasis, offering hope for patients in need of alternative therapies.

AI Summary
Artelo Biosciences recently published an article in the peer-reviewed journal Drug Discovery Today titled “The emerging role of fatty acid binding protein 7 (FABP7) in cancers.” The article discusses the role of FABP7, a protein that helps transport and store fats in cells, in various types of cancer such as breast, brain, and kidney cancers. Studies highlighted in the article show that high levels of FABP7 are often linked to poorer patient outcomes. Researchers also found that both genetic and pharmacological methods to block FABP7 can reduce tumor growth, cell migration, and invasion. These findings suggest that targeting FABP7 could be a promising new approach in treating cancer. The article underlines the importance of further research on FABP inhibitors and supports Artelo Biosciences’ commitment to developing innovative therapies for cancer and other serious conditions.
