Marsicano, Giovanni

Giovanni Marsicano is a researcher in the field of neuroscience. His primary area of study is the endocannabinoid system and its role in learning and memory. He has published numerous articles on this topic, including one that shows how acute cannabinoid-induced memory impairment requires activation of hippocampal mtCB1 receptors, which signal through intra-mitochondrial Gαi protein activation and consequent inhibition of soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC), leading to decreased cellular respiration. Marsicano's work has been published in prestigious scientific journals such as Nature and Cell.
