Cannabidiol Administered During Peri-Adolescence Prevents Behavioral Abnormalities in an Animal Model of Schizophrenia, Fernanda F. Peres et al., 2018

Cannabidiol Administered During Peri-Adolescence Prevents Behavioral Abnormalities in an Animal Model of Schizophrenia Fernanda F. Peres, Mariana C. Diana, Raquel Levin, Mayra A. Suiama, Valéria Almeida, Ana M. Vendramini, Camila M. Santos, Antônio W. Zuardi, Jaime E. C. Hallak, José A. Crippa and Vanessa C. Abílio Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018, 9, article 901.

Cannabidiol attenuates haloperidol-induced catalepsy and c-Fos protein expression in the dorsolateral striatum via 5-HT1A receptors in mice, Andreza B. Sonego et al., 2016

Cannabidiol attenuates haloperidol-induced catalepsy and c-Fos protein expression in the dorsolateral striatum via 5-HT1A receptors in mice Andreza B. Sonego; Felipe V. Gomes; Elaine A. Del Bel; Francisco S. Guimaraes Behavioural Brain Research, 2016, 21. Doi : 10.1016/j.bbr.2016.04.042   Highlights  Cannabidiol (CBD) attenuated haloperidol-induced catalepsy.  CBD reduced c-Fos protein expression in the dorsal striatum induced by haloperidol.  CBD effects were blocked by 5-HT1A receptor antagonist.   Abstract Cannabidiol (CBD) is a major non-psychoactive compound from Cannabis sativa plant. Given that CBD reduces psychotic symptoms without inducing extrapyramidal motor side-effects in animal models and schizophrenia patients, it has been proposed to act as an atypical antipsychotic. In addition, CBD [...]

Cannabidiol Improves Cognitive Impairment and Reverses Cortical Transcriptional Changes Induced by Ketamine, in Schizophrenia-Like Model in Rats Ewa Kozela & Martyna Krawczyk & Tomasz Kos & Ana Juknat & Zvi Vogel & Piotr Popik Molecular Neurobiology, 2019, Doi : 10.1007/s12035-019-01831-2   Abstract Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychotropic cannabinoid, demonstrates antipsychotic-like and procognitive activities in humans and in animal models of schizophrenia. The mechanisms of these beneficial effects of CBD are unknown. Here, we examined behavioral effects of CBD in a pharmacological model of schizophrenia-like cognitive deficits induced by repeated ketamine (KET) administration. In parallel, we assessed transcriptional changes behind CBD activities in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), the [...]

6 variétés de cannabis pleines de THCV, Aurélien BERNARD, Newsweed.fr, 30 janvier 2020

6 variétés de cannabis pleines de THCV Aurélien BERNARD Newsweed.fr, 30 janvier 2020 https://www.newsweed.fr/5-varietes-cannabis-thcv/ À mesure que les connaissances scientifiques sur le cannabis se développent, la composition chimique du cannabis et la manière dont il interagit avec le corps se dévoilent. Et si le CBD ou le THC sont largement étudiés, certains cannabinoïdes plus rares comme le THCV (tetrahydocannabivarine) intéressent de plus en plus les scientifiques. Au cours de la dernière décennie, des études sur des humains et des animaux ont identifié le potentiel du THCV pour réduire l’appétit chez les personnes qui luttent pour perdre du poids, réguler la glycémie chez les personnes atteintes [...]

Sense of reality, metacognition and culture in schizophrenic and drug-induced hallucinations, Martin Fortier, 2018

Sense of reality, metacognition and culture in schizophrenic and drug-induced hallucinations :  An interdisciplinary approach Martin Fortier In J. Proust & M. Fortier (Eds.) : "Metacognitive Diversity : An Interdisciplinary Approach", 2018. Oxford/New York, Oxford University Press.   Abstract Hallucinations possess two main components : (i) a sensory content; and (ii) a sense that the sensory content is real. Influential models of schizophrenic hallucination claim that both the sensory content and the sense of reality can be explained in terms of metacognitive dysfunction. This chapter assesses whether such a claim holds for schizophrenic and drug-induced hallucinations; it further attempts to determine the actual role of metacognition [...]
