THC,CBN | pain in mice | delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabinol Activate Capsaicin-Sensitive Sensory Nerves via a CB1 and CB2 Cannabinoid Receptor-Independent Mechanism | June 2002 |
Action Pathway: extracellular calcium Here, we show that THC and cannabinol induce a CB1/CB2 cannabinoid receptor-independent release of calcitonin gene-related peptide from capsaicin-sensitive perivascular sensory nerves. Other psychotropic cannabinoids cannot mimic this action. | |||
THC | cancer,blood cancer in vitro | Targeting CB2 cannabinoid receptors as a novel therapy to treat malignant lymphoblastic disease. | Jul 2002 |
Action Pathway: CB2 Exposure of murine tumors EL-4, LSA, and P815 to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in vitro led to a significant reduction in cell viability and an increase in apoptosis. | |||
THC | addiction,opioid in rats via experiment | Attenuation of precipitated abstinence in methadone-dependent rats by delta 9-THC | Jan 1975 |
Abstinence scores in animals pretreated acutely with 10 mg/kg delta 9-THC one hour before naloxone were significantly less than those of a vehicle control group, and wet shakes and gastrointestinal signs of abstinence were blocked. These results extend previous observations of morphine abstinence attenuating properties of delta 9-THC to effects on animals dependent on methadone. | |||
THC,WIN55,HU-210 | cancer in vitro | Cannabinoids induce cancer cell proliferation via tumor necrosis factor alpha-converting enzyme (TACE/ADAM17)-mediated transactivation of the epidermal growth factor receptor. | Mar 2004 |
Negative Taken together, our data show that concentrations of THC comparable with those detected in the serum of patients after THC administration accelerate proliferation of cancer cells instead of apoptosis and thereby contribute to cancer progression in patients. | |||
THC | cancer,leukemia in vitro | Cannabis-induced cytotoxicity in leukemic cell lines: the role of the cannabinoid receptors and the MAPK pathway. | Feb 2005 |
We have shown that THC is a potent inducer of apoptosis, even at 1 x IC(50) (inhibitory concentration 50%) concentrations and as early as 6 hours after exposure to the drug. These effects were seen in leukemic cell lines (CEM, HEL-92, and HL60) as well as in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. | |||
THC | cancer,breast cancer in mice | Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol enhances breast cancer growth and metastasis by suppression of the antitumor immune response. | Mar 2005 |
Action Pathway: CB2 Negative Furthermore, exposure of mice to Delta9-THC led to significantly elevated 4T1 tumor growth and metastasis due to inhibition of the specific antitumor immune response in vivo. The suppression of the antitumor immune response was mediated primarily through CB2 as opposed to CB1. | |||
THC | addiction,opioid via review | Endocannabinoid system and opioid addiction: behavioural aspects. | Jun 2005 |
The current review examines progresses in the past few years in the elucidation of cannabinoid-opioid interactions in drug abuse and dependence, focusing on recent findings from behavioural studies using different animal models of addiction. Specifically, here we review data on the behavioural aspects (i.e., drug abuse, dependence, tolerance, sensitization, relapse and drug vulnerability) of the specific, often reciprocal, cross-talk between cannabinoids and opioids with particular reference to the role of the endocannabinoid system in opioid addiction. | |||
THC | cancer,breast cancer in vitro | Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits cell cycle progression in human breast cancer cells through Cdc2 regulation. | Jul 2006 |
Here, we show that Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), through activation of CB(2) cannabinoid receptors, reduces human breast cancer cell proliferation by blocking the progression of the cell cycle and by inducing apoptosis. | |||

THC | arthritis,ra via review | The endocannabinoid system and its therapeutic implications in rheumatoid arthritis. | May 2015 |
Action Pathway: CB2 In particular, specific activation of CB2 may relieve RA by inhibiting not only the production of autoantibodies, proinflammatory cytokines, and MMPs, but also bone erosion, immune response mediated by T cells, and the proliferation of FLSs. In this review, we will discuss the possible functions of the endocannabinoid system in the modulation of RA, which may be a potential target for treatment. | |||
THC | ptsd in mice | Tetrahydrocannabinol alone and combined with cannabidiol mitigate fear memory through reconsolidation disruption. | Jun 2015 |
Ingestion Method: 0.3-10mg/kg, i.p. Action Pathway: CB1 We report that THC (0.3-10mg/kg, i.p.) was able to disrupt the reconsolidation of a contextual fear memory, resulting in reduced conditioned freezing expression for over 22 days. This effect was dependent on activation of cannabinoid type-1 receptors located in prelimbic subregion of the medial prefrontal cortex and on memory retrieval/reactivation. | |||

THC | appetite boost in humans via placebo trial (n=17) | Effect of acute delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol administration on subjective and metabolic hormone responses to food stimuli and food intake in healthy humans: a randomized, placebo-controlled study. | Apr 2019 |
Positive THC increased "liking" (P = 0.031) and "wanting" ratings (P = 0.0096) of the high-calorie, but not the low-calorie images, compared with placebo. Participants consumed significantly more milkshake after THC than after placebo during oral intake (P = 0.0005), but not intragastric infusion, of milkshake. | |||
THC | opioid in rats via experiment | delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol attenuates oxycodone self-administration under extended access conditions. | Jun 2019 |
Ingestion Method: 0.15 mg/kg/infusion and 0-10 mg/kg, i.p. Fewer oxycodone infusions were obtained by rats following vaporized or injected THC compared with vehicle treatment prior to the session. Follow-up studies demonstrated parallel dose-dependent effects of THC, i.p., on self-administration of different per-infusion doses of oxycodone and a preserved loading dose early in the session. | |||
THC,CBD | driving in humans via placebo trial (n=14) | Cannabidiol (CBD) content in vaporized cannabis does not prevent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-induced impairment of driving and cognition | May 2019 |
Ingestion Method: vaporzation 11% thc vs 11% thc+11%cbd Negative Both active cannabis types increased lane weaving during a car-following task but had little effect on other driving performance measures. Active cannabis types impaired performance on the Digit Symbol Substitution Task (DSST), Divided Attention Task (DAT) and Paced Auditory Serial Addition Task (PASAT) with impairment on the latter two tasks worse with THC/CBD equivalent cannabis. Subjective drug effects (e.g., stoned) and confidence in driving ability did not vary with CBD content. Peak plasma THC concentrations were higher following THC/CBD equivalent cannabis relative to THC-dominant cannabis, suggesting a possible pharmacokinetic interaction. | |||
cannabis,THC | pregnancy in vitro | delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol leads to endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in human BeWo trophoblasts. | May 2019 |
Negative Collectively, these findings indicate that delta-9-THC can directly augment ER stress resulting in aberrant placental gene expression and impaired mitochondrial function. | |||
THC,CBN | alzheimers in model via model | Efficacy of Cannabinoids in a Pre-Clinical Drug-Screening Platform for Alzheimers Disease | May 2019 |
Positive Pairwise combinations of THC and CBN lead to a synergistic neuroprotective interaction. Together, these results significantly extend the published data by showing that non-psychoactive cannabinoids are potential lead drug candidates for AD and other neurodegenerative diseases. | |||
THC,THC-OH,THC-COOH | metabolism in humans via experiment | Minimal Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model of Intravenously and Orally Administered Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol in Healthy Volunteers. | May 2019 |
Ingestion Method: oral 10, 25 and 50 mg THC, 0.1 mg/kg IV When administered via the IV or inhalation routes, induction or inhibition of CYP2C9 should be non-contributory as the elimination of THC is dependent only on liver blood flow. THC-OH is also a high extraction ratio drug, but its hepatic clearance is significantly impacted by the hepatic diffusional barrier that impedes its access to hepatic CYP2C9. THC-COOH is glucuronidated and renally cleared; subjects homozygous for CYP2C9*3 have reduced exposure to this metabolite as a result of the polymorphism reducing THC production, the hepatic diffusional barrier impeding egress from the hepatocyte, and increased renal clearance. | |||
THC,CBD | sedative in humans via review | The use of cannabinoids for sleep: A critical review on clinical trials. | May 2019 |
Positive Many of the reviewed studies suggested that cannabinoids could improve sleep quality, decrease sleep disturbances, and decrease sleep onset latency. | |||
THC | gender differences in rats via experiment | Age-related differences in delta-?-tetrahydrocannabinol-induced antinociception in female and male rats. | May 2019 |
On the tail withdrawal test, THC was significantly more effective in middle-aged adult than in young adult rats and significantly less effective in adolescent than in young adult rats. Similar but smaller age-related differences were observed on the paw pressure test. Sex differences in THC's antinociceptive effects were consistent across the 3 ages examined, with greater THC effects observed in females than males of each age. | |||
THC,CBD | cancer in mice via experiment | In vivo effects of cannabinoids on macromolecular biosynthesis in Lewis lung carcinomas. | 1977 |
These drugs inhibit thymidine-3H incorporation into DNA acutely, but did not inhibit leucine uptake into tumor protein. At 24 h after treatment, cannabinoids did not inhibit thymidine-3H incorporation into DNA, leucine-3H uptake into protein or cytidine-3H into RNA. | |||
CBC,THC | pain in mice | Neurobehavioral actions of cannabichromene and interactions with delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol. | 1983 |
CBC had a weak analgetic action in mice; THC had a moderate and lengthy effect, which was potentiated at 2 hr by concurrent CBC. Both CBC (10-75 mg/kg, i.p.) and THC (20 mg/kg) reduced motility of mice, the THC equalling the highest dose of CBC. | |||
THC,CBD | EB in humans via trial (n=3) | Combined THC and CBD to treat pain in EB | Apr 2019 |
Ingestion Method: THC+CBD oil Positive All three participants reported a significant reduction in pain levels experienced whilst undergoing CBM oil treatment relative to their previous drug regime. An additional benefit was reduction in itching. | |||
cannabis,THC | pain in humans via study (n=2987) | The effectiveness of self-directed medical cannabis treatment for pain | Jul 2019 |
The average cannabis user experiences a momentary pain intensity reduction of roughly 3 points on a 0-10 pain scale following cannabis consumption. The results suggest that Cannabis flower with moderate to high levels of tetrahydrocannabinol is an effective mid-level analgesic. | |||
THC,CBD | tourettes in humans via case study (n=1) | Pure delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol and its combination with cannabidiol in treatment-resistant Tourette syndrome: A case report. | Mar 2019 |
