Cannabidiol inhibits the hyperlocomotion induced by psychotomimetic drugs in mice

Moreira, Fabrício A., Guimarães, Francisco S.·2005·European Journal of Pharmacology

Abstract

Cannabidiol is a non-psychotomimetic compound from Cannabis sativa. It is proposed as a possible antipsychotic drug, since it can prevent some psychotomimetic-like effects of Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol or apomorphine. Therefore, the aim of this work was to test the hypothesis that cannabidiol would inhibit the hyperlocomotion induced by two psychotomimetic drugs, D-amphetamine or ketamine. Male Swiss mice received i.p. injections of haloperidol (0.15-0.6 mg/kg), clozapine (1.25-5 mg/kg) or cannabidiol (15-60 mg/kg) followed by D-amphetamine (5 mg/kg) or ketamine (60 mg/kg). Thirty minutes after the first injection, the distance moved in circular arena was measured during 10 min. In another group of experiments, catalepsy was measured 30 min after haloperidol, clozapine or cannabidiol injections. Cannabidiol, like clozapine but unlike haloperidol, inhibited hyperlocomotion without inducing catalepsy. Moreover, cannabidiol itself, unlike haloperidol and clozapine, did not decrease locomotion. In conclusion, cannabidiol exhibits an antipsychotic-like profile without inducing extrapyramidal-like effects.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
