OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to investigate the metabolome disruption in the rat cerebrum induced by the recently abused synthetic cannabinoid MAM-2201. METHODS MAM-2201 was intraperitoneally administered to 6-week Wistar rats at 5 or 15mg/kg (n=5), and the cerebrum metabolome alteration was

BACKGROUND Although cannabinoid effects on motor function have been extensively studied in rodents, the role of cannabinoids in regulating behavior in primates is relatively unknown. OBJECTIVE We compared the effects of cannabinoid agonists and dopamine antagonists on unconditioned behaviors in

Cannabinoid-based medicines have been proposed as clinically promising therapies in Parkinson's disease (PD), given the prominent modulatory function played by the cannabinoid signaling system in the basal ganglia. Supporting this pharmacological potential, the cannabinoid signaling system

Marijuana is popular in the United States and is being widely legalized for recreational and medicinal purposes. It remains a Schedule 1 substance without fully proven risks and benefits; yet, it is increasingly available in many US states and territories. Cannabis might have medicinal efficacy in

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder with a heterogeneous clinical picture and a variable rate of progression. PD is characterized by degeneration of the pigmented neuromelanin bearing cells of the pars compacta of the substantia nigra that leads to a severe

Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by bradykinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. Non-motor symptoms, including pain, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, and depression to name a few, are increasingly recognized and often just as disabling

OBJECTIVE The use of cannabis as a therapeutic agent for various medical conditions has been well documented. However, clinical trials in patients with Parkinson disease (PD) have yielded conflicting results. The aim of the present open-label observational study was to assess the clinical effect of

Most of cases of Parkinson's disease (PD) have a sporadic origin, with their causes mostly unknown, although overexposure to some environmental factors has been found to occur in some cases. Other forms of parkinsonism are the consequence of dominant or recessive mutations in specific genes, e.g.

Recent evidence suggest that the blockade of cannabinoid CB1 receptors might be beneficial to alleviate motor inhibition typical of Parkinson's disease (PD). In the present study, we have explored the motor effects of rimonabant, a selective antagonist of CB1 receptors, in a rat model of PD

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a slow insidious neurological disorder characterized by a loss of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain. Although several recent preclinical advances have proposed to treat PD, there is hardly any clinically proved new therapeutic for its cure. Increasing evidence suggests
