  • Effects of Levodopa on Endocannabinoid Levels in Rat Basal Ganglia: Implications for the Treatment of Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesias
    European Journal of Neuroscience, Vol. 18, pp. 1607±1614, 2003 ß Federation of European Neuroscience Societies Effects of levodopa on endocannabinoid levels in rat basal ganglia: implications for the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesias Belen Ferrer,1 Nick Asbrock,2 Satish Kathuria,2 Daniele Piomelli2 and Andrea Giuffrida3 1Fundacion Hospital Carlos Haya, 29010 Malaga, Spain 2Department of Pharmacology, University of California at Irvine, 360 Medical Surge II, Irvine, California 92697, USA 3Department of Pharmacology, University of Texas Health Science Center, San Antonio, Texas 78229, USA Keywords: 2-arachidonylglycerol, 6-hydroxydopamine, anandamide, cannabinoid, fatty acid ethanolamides Abstract The majority of Parkinson's disease patients undergoing levodopa therapy develop disabling motor complications (dyskinesias) within 10 years of treatment. Stimulation of cannabinoid receptors, the pharmacological target of D9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is emerging as a promising therapy to alleviate levodopa-associated dyskinesias. However, the mechanisms underlying this bene®cial action remain elusive, as do the effects exerted by levodopa therapy on the endocannabinoid system. Although levodopa is known to cause changes in CB1 receptor expression in animal models of Parkinson's disease, we have no information on whether this drug alters the brain concentrations of the endocannabinoids anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol. To address this question, we used an isotope dilution assay to measure endocannabinoid levels in the caudate±putamen, globus pallidus and substantia nigra of intact and unilaterally 6-OHDA-lesioned rats undergoing acute or chronic treatment with levodopa (50 mg/kg). In intact animals, systemic administration of levodopa increased anandamide concentrations throughout the basal ganglia via activation of dopamine D1/D2 receptors. In 6-OHDA- lesioned rats, anandamide levels were signi®cantly reduced in the caudate±putamen ipsilateral to the lesion; however, neither acute nor chronic levodopa treatment affected endocannabinoid levels in these animals.

  • Nabilone for Chronic Pain Management: a Review of Clinical Effectiveness, Safety, and Guidelines
    TITLE: Nabilone for Chronic Pain Management: A Review of Clinical Effectiveness, Safety, and Guidelines DATE: 11 November 2011 CONTEXT AND POLICY ISSUES Cannabis sativa is a flowering plant that has long been used as a recreational drug, and for medicinal purposes.1,2 The main psychoactive component of cannabis is delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinol (∆9-THC).2 Nabilone (Cesamet®) is an oral synthetic cannabinoid, which is licensed in Canada for treating patients with severe nausea and vomiting related to chemotherapy for cancer and who have failed to respond adequately to conventional antiemetic treatments.2-4 Clinical trials and anecdotal reports have suggested that the use of nabilone in other medical conditions, such as appetite stimulation, anxiety, spasticity, and pain.1,5 Chronic pain affects approximately one in five people in developed countries and two in five in less well-resourced countries. In many circumstances, the patient’s quality of life is poor due to persistent pain caused either by an ongoing illness or nerve damage caused by the disease after resolution or cure of the disease.6 Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease, and is the most common cause of neurological disability in young people, with an average age of onset around 30 years and a prevalence of about 120 per 100,000 individuals in North America. The majority of patients with MS display symptoms, such as fatigue, muscle stiffness or spasticity, pain, memory problems, balance trouble, tremors, urinary disturbance, and sexual dysfunctions.2,7 The purpose of this review is to assess the evidence of benefits and harms related to the use of nabilone in management of chronic pain, including patients with MS.

  • Medicinal Chemistry Endeavors Around the Phytocannabinoids
    CHEMISTRY & BIODIVERSITY – Vol. 4 (2007) 1707 REVIEW Medicinal Chemistry Endeavors around the Phytocannabinoids by Eric Stern and Didier M. Lambert* Drug Design and Discovery Center and Unite´ de Chimie pharmaceutique et de Radiopharmacie, Ecole de Pharmacie, Faculte´ de Me´decine, Universite´ catholique de Louvain, Avenue E. Mounier 73, U.C.L. 73.40, B-1200 Bruxelles (phone: þ3227647347; fax: þ3227647363; e-mail: [email protected]) Over the past 50 years, a considerable research in medicinal chemistry has been carried out around the natural constituents of Cannabis sativa L. Following the identification of D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC) in 1964, critical chemical modifications, e.g., variation of the side chain at C(3) and the opening of the tricyclic scaffold, have led to the characterization of potent and cannabinoid receptor subtype-selective ligands. Those ligands that demonstrate high affinity for the cannabinoid receptors and good biological efficacy are still used as powerful pharmacological tools. This review summarizes past as well as recent developments in the structure–activity relationships of phytocannabinoids. 1. Introduction. – Despite the wide uses of preparations of the hemp Cannabis sativa L. during the History, the modern pharmacology of natural cannabinoids has been hampered by the slow progress in the elucidations of the chemical structures of its major components. Indeed, it is nowadays known that more than 70 compounds derived from a diterpene structure are present in the plant [1], and this fact may explain the difficulty to obtain pure chemical entities in the past. In addition, the medicinal research for more than a half century has been driven by the search for the components responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis, this era in the history of the chemical research on cannabinoids have been recently reviewed [2][3].

  • 2 Spice English Presentation
    Spice Spice contains no compensatory substances Специи не содержит компенсационные вещества Spice is a mix of herbs (shredded plant material) and manmade chemicals with mind-altering effects. It is often called “synthetic marijuana” because some of the chemicals in it are similar to ones in marijuana; but its effects are sometimes very different from marijuana, and frequently much stronger. It is most often labeled “Not for Human Consumption” and disguised as incense. Eliminationprocess • The synthetic agonists such as THC is fat soluble. • Probably, they are stored as THC in cell membranes. • Some of the chemicals in Spice, however, attach to those receptors more strongly than THC, which could lead to a much stronger and more unpredictable effect. • Additionally, there are many chemicals that remain unidentified in products sold as Spice and it is therefore not clear how they may affect the user. • Moreover, these chemicals are often being changed as the makers of Spice alter them to avoid the products being illegal. • To dissolve the Spice crystals Acetone is used endocannabinoids synhtetic THC cannabinoids CB1 and CB2 agonister Binds to cannabinoidreceptor CB1 CB2 - In the brain -in the immune system Decreased avtivity in the cell ____________________ Maria Ellgren Since some of the compounds have a longer toxic effects compared to naturally THC, as reported: • negative effects that often occur the day after consumption, as a general hangover , but without nausea, mentally slow, confused, distracted, impairment of long and short term memory • Other reports mention the qualitative impairment of cognitive processes and emotional functioning, like all the oxygen leaves the brain.
