Marijuana is a commonly used substance in the United States for both recreational and medicinal purposes. Detrimental health-related effects of marijuana continue to be a source of controversy.We describe a case of a woman who presented to the emergency

Tetrahydrocannabinol induces brain mitochondrial respiratory chain dysfunction and increases oxidative stress: a potential mechanism involved in cannabis-related stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cannabis has potential therapeutic use but tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), its main psychoactive component, appears as a risk factor for ischemic stroke in young adults. We therefore evaluate the effects of THC on brain mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, key factors involved in stroke. Maximal

Pulmonary and systemic hemodynamic effects of delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol in conscious and morphine--chloralose-anesthetized dogs: anesthetic influence on drug action.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary and systemic hemodynamic effects of delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9-THC) in conscious dogs and in those anesthetized with morphine (3 mg/kg, i.m.) plus alpha-chloralose (100 mg/kg i.v.) were evaluated in this study. A decrease in the heart rate, cardiac output (PBF) and a concomitant

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the In Vivo Haemodynamic Effects of Δ⁸-Tetrahydrocannabinol.

Only registered users can translate articles

∆⁸-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has complex effects on the cardiovascular system. We aimed to systematically review studies of THC and haemodynamic alterations. PubMed, Medline, and EMBASE were searched for relevant studies. Changes in blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), and blood flow (BF) were

A randomised controlled cross-over double-blind pilot study protocol on THC:CBD oromucosal spray efficacy as an add-on therapy for post-stroke spasticity.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Stroke is the most disabling neurological disorder and often causes spasticity. Transmucosal cannabinoids (tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol (THC:CBD), Sativex) is currently available to treat spasticity-associated symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis. Cannabinoids are being

Cannabinoids in experimental stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cannabinoids (CBs) show promise as neuroprotectants with some agents already licensed in humans for other conditions. We systematically reviewed CBs in preclinical stroke to guide further experimental protocols. We selected controlled studies assessing acute administration of CBs for experimental

Therapeutic Potential of Non-Psychotropic Cannabidiol in Ischemic Stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cannabis contains the psychoactive component delta⁸-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta⁸-THC), and the non-psychoactive components cannabidiol (CBD), cannabinol, and cannabigerol. It is well-known that delta⁸-THC and other cannabinoid CB₁ receptor agonists are neuroprotective during global and focal

Spice, pot, and stroke.

The endocannabinoid system includes 2 types of G-protein coupled receptors: CB1 (mostly in the brain) and CB2 (in peripheral lymphoid tissue). The major cannabinoid ligands are arachidonylethanolamine ("anandamide," the Sanskrit word for bliss) and 2-arachidonylglycerol ("2AG"). It is by binding to

Treatment of human spasticity with delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol.

Only registered users can translate articles

Spasticity is a common neurologic condition in patients with multiple sclerosis, stroke, cerebral palsy or an injured spinal cord. Animal studies suggest that THC has an inhibitory effect on polysynaptic reflexes. Some spastic patients claim improvement after inhaling cannabis. We tested muscle

Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and AM 404 protect against cerebral ischaemia in gerbils through a mechanism involving cannabinoid and opioid receptors.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE It has been suggested that the endocannabinoid system elicits neuroprotection against excitotoxic brain damage. In the present study the therapeutic potential of AM 404 on ischaemia-induced neuronal injury was investigated in vivo and compared with that of the classical cannabinoid

Cerebellar infarction in adolescent males associated with acute marijuana use.

OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the clinical characteristics, radiologic findings, and neuropathological features of tetrahydrocannabinol-related posterior fossa ischemic stroke in adolescent patients. METHODS A retrospective case and chart review of 3 cases encountered at a tertiary care institution over

Towards a therapeutic use of selective CB2 cannabinoid receptor ligands for atherosclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Atherosclerosis remains the primary cause of heart disease and stroke, causing approximately 50% of all deaths in Western countries. The identification of promising novel anti-atherosclerotic therapies is therefore of great interest and represents a continued challenge to the medical community.

[Therapeutic applications and biomedical effects of cannabinoids; pharmacological starting points].

Only registered users can translate articles

A broad range of therapeutic applications has been suggested for cannabis or its pharmacologically active compound (tetrahydrocannabinol; THC) in many publications. Psychotropic side effects and the anecdotal character of the research have limited the pharmacotherapeutic use of THC until now.
