Evaluating the effect of Tetrahydrocannabinol (∆9-THC) extracted from Cannabis sativa plant on spatial memory consolidation in rats
Background As the point of physiology, memories form changes in the conducting message in the neural webs. These changes cause the formation of long-term potentiation. Δ9-THC is a psychotropic component of Cannabis sativa plant. Studies show this matter can bind Cannabinoid receptor in CA1 area of Hippocamp. Thus the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of aqua extraction Cannabis sativa...
متن کاملCannabis sativa (Hemp) Seeds, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol, and Potential Overdose
Introduction:Cannabis sativa (hemp) seeds are popular for their high nutrient content, and strict regulations are in place to limit the amount of potentially harmful phytocannabinoids, especially Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC). In Canada, this limit is 10 μg of Δ9-THC per gram of hemp seeds (10 ppm), and other jurisdictions in the world follow similar guidelines. Materials and Methods: We inv...
متن کاملEffects of gibberellic acid on primary terpenoids and delta-tetrahydrocannabinol in Cannabis sativa at flowering stage.
Plants synthesize an astonishing diversity of isoprenoids, some of which play essential roles in photosynthesis, respiration, and the regulation of growth and development. Two independent pathways for the biosynthesis of isoprenoid precursors coexist within the plant cell: the cytosolic mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway and the plastidial methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway. However, little is ...
متن کاملMydriasis induced by tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in rats.
Male albino rats, injected intravenously or intracerebroventricularly with delta 1-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), develop mudriasis. The median effective dose of the intravenous administration group was 5 mg/kg THC, whereas that for the intracerebroventricular route was 150 microgram/kg THC. Sympathectomy significantly decreased the THC-induced mydriasis. The mydriatic effect was not influenced by...
متن کاملChronic cannabis abuse, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol and thyroid function.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to obtain rather rare information about the influence of chronic cannabis abuse on thyroid function. METHODS Thyroid function tests (TSH, total T3, free T4) of 39 chronic cannabis-dependent subjects (ICD-10) were determined at admission (for in-patient detoxification). In a subgroup, serum levels of thyroid hormones were correlated with the serum levels of ...
