THC-MEDIATED INDUCTION OF ΔFOSB AND ITS MODULATION OF CB1R SIGNALING AND ADAPTATION
… mediated through cannabinoid type 1 receptors (CB1Rs). The therapeutic uses of THC are mitigated by the development of tolerance to these therapeutic effects, whereas tolerance does not readily develop to some of the side-effects of THC, like motor impairment and reward. The development of …

Cannabinoid CB1R Receptor Mediates Metabolic Syndrome in Models of Circadian and Glucocorticoid Dysregulation
<p>The most recent projections in the growing obesity rates across the nation show an increase to 60% by the year 2030. These growing rates of obesity are paralleled by an increased rates of depressive conditions, anxiety, and sleep loss, often with environmental factors at the root of the cause. …

CANNABINOID RECEPTOR INTERACTING PROTEIN 1A (CRIP1A): EFFECTS ON CB1 RECEPTOR FUNCTION AND CELLULAR REGULATION
… the United States. The CB1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1R) has been extensively studied since the initial characterization of its involvement in mediating the psychotropic effects of marijuana. CB1R is one of the most abundantly expressed G protein coupled receptors (GPCR) in the CNS and has been …

Cannabinoid regulation of excitatory synaptic transmission at hippocampal synapses
… their biological effects via activation of CB1R and CB2R subtypes (Battista et al., 2012), however in the CNS, the predominant cannabinoid receptor is CB1R. In the hippocampus, varying results have been obtained on the extent and site of cannabinoid-mediated actions on excitatory synaptic …

La signalisation du recepteur cannabinoïde de type-1 et son role dans la regulation de la dynamique du lactate cerebral chez la souris en libre mouvement [Il recettore cannabinoide di tipo 1 nella modulazione delle dinamiche del lattato cerebrale in topi in libero movimento]
… il recettore dei cannabinoidi di tipo 1 (CB1R) nella regolazione del metabolismo astrocitario. L’attivazione persistente dei CB1R mitocondriali (mtCB1R) negli astrociti per 24 ore è stata associata a una riduzione della produzione di lattato. Al contrario, lavori recenti del nostro …

Role of the ventral tegmental area, cannabinoid receptors and GABA neurons in motor activity
… site of action for cannabinoid receptors (CB1R) and provide the first detailed analysis of the distribution of CB1R throughout the various subnuclei and across the rostrocaudal extent of the VTA. We demonstrated that CB1R populations have postsynaptic localization in the VTA, and a …

Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor Expression and Localization in the Dorsal Horn of Male and Female Human and Rat Spinal Cord Tissue
… expression of the cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R) across dorsal horn laminae and cell populations in male and female adult rats and humans. Qualitatively, we observed increased neuropil immunostaining in the SDH of rats and humans, and somatic staining in deeper laminae. Quantitative results …

Role of the Endocannabinoid System in Behavioral Reactions in a Depressive-Like Condition // Роля на ендоканабиноидната система в поведенчески реакции при депресивно-подобно състояние
… ролята на селективни агонисти и антагонисти на CB1R върху механизмите на развитие на депресивни разстройства. МЕТОДИ. Върху плъхове с модел на двустранна олфакторна булбектомия (ОВХ) беше изследвано действието на HU 210 – агонист и SR 141716A – антагонист на CB1R, инжектирани …

Multifunctional Polymer Fiber Probes for Biomedical Application
… (LFP) while manipulating cannabinoid receptors (CB1R; microfluidic agonist delivery) and CA1 neuronal activity using optogenetics. Focal infusion of CB1R agonist downregulated theta and sharp wave-ripple oscillations (SPW-Rs). Furthermore, we found that CB1R activation reduces sharp wave-ripples …

Effect of Cannabinoids and Stress on Motor Maps and Behaviour
… study determined that cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) signaling dampened motor map expression and that both anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) contributed to this effect. Activation of CB1R signaling did not affect skilled reaching task performance. However, a lack of cannabinoid …

Effects of alcohol and ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol on energy balance and cognitive behaviors
… activates cannabinoid subtype 1 and 2 receptors (CB1R and CB2R) to modulate many behavioral and metabolic processes, including feeding and glucose homeostasis. For several reasons, reports on the long-term effects of alcohol and THC use on energy balance, glucose homeostasis, and cognitive …

Effect of cannabinoids on pain-stimulated and pain-depressed behavior in rats
… and acid-depressed ICSS included: mixed CB1R/CB2R agonists THC and CP55940, drugs that modulate levels of the endogenous cannabinoid agonist anandamide (URB597 and PF3845), and a selective CB2R agonist, GW405833. THC was also tested in assays of LPS-stimulated mechanical allodynia and …

Cannabinoids and Psychosis – Cause and Treatment
… THC stimulates the endocanabinoid CB1 receptor (CB1R). However, beyond CB1Rs, the mechanism underlying the pro-psychotic effects of THC is unknown. <em>The ecploration of candidate mechanisms was the first major theme in this thesis</em>. In Study 1 the pro-psychotic properties of intravenous …
