Exogenous cannabinoids reduce responsiveness to noxious thermal, chemical and mechanical stimuli in rats.

Items with high missing values or ceiling/floor effects (>90% of the ratings in the highest vs. lowest response categories) were excluded from the subsequent analysis since they may reduce the sensitivity and responsiveness of the scale [ 28].

We have shown a significant decline in IL10 production by B cells in old donors upon LPS stimulation and a reduction in TLR4 expression on aged CD19+CD24hiCD38hi and CD19+CD5+CD1dhi B cells that may contribute to reduced responsiveness to LPS, which is also seen in monocytes and DCs with age (Qian et al., 2012).
