Application

Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol solution has been used to study its effects on schizophrenia-related behaviors in a developmental mouse model of schizophrenia.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol or Δ9-THC is a psychoactive ingredient in marijuana that is known to function as a neuroprotective antioxidant21. In vivo microdialysis studies have reported that Δ9-THC can enhance extracellular dopamine efflux in the nucleus accumbens of conscious, freely-moving rats22.
Agonist at CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors. Hallucinogen; major psychoactive component of marijuana from Cannabis sativa.
