Mydriasis 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 کاملΔ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol Prevents Methamphetamine-Induced Neurotoxicity
Methamphetamine (METH) is a potent psychostimulant with neurotoxic properties. Heavy use increases the activation of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), production of peroxynitrites, microglia stimulation, and induces hyperthermia and anorectic effects. Most METH recreational users also consume cannabis. Preclinical studies have shown that natural (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, Δ9-THC) and synthe...
متن کاملCatechin attenuates behavioral neurotoxicity induced by 6-OHDA in rats
This study was designed to investigate the beneficial effect of catechin in a model of Parkinson's disease. Unilateral, intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned rats were pretreated with catechin (10 and 30 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection 2h before surgery and for 14 days afterwards. After treatments, apomorphine-induced rotations, locomotor activity, working memory and earl...
متن کاملDefault Mode Network in the Effects of Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on Human Executive Function
Evidence is increasing for involvement of the endocannabinoid system in cognitive functions including attention and executive function, as well as in psychiatric disorders characterized by cognitive deficits, such as schizophrenia. Executive function appears to be associated with both modulation of active networks and inhibition of activity in the default mode network. In the present study, we ...
متن کاملHigh-throughput toxicological analysis of Δ9-THC and 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-THC by LC/MS/MS
A new high-throughput liquid chromatography / tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantification of Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in suspect plant material and of its principal metabolite, 11-nor-9carboxy-Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH), in human urine was developed and validated. The separation was performed on a Zorbax SB-C18 column under isocratic conditions using a mixture o...
