Abstract:
:The cataleptogenic effect of delta 9-THC was compared to its discriminative stimulus effects in rats. The ED50s for the discriminative stimulus and catalepsy were 0.8 and 4.0 mg/kg, respectively, while their time courses were very similar. The ED50 of delta 9-THC for catalepsy in experimentally naive rats was not different from that in rats trained with the drug discrimination procedure, indicating that the cataleptogenic effect was not appreciably attenuated by long-term exposure to low doses of delta 9-THC. Pharmacologically, the catalepsy produced by delta 9-THC more closely resembled that of haloperidol than of morphine, since anticholinergic pretreatment eliminated the delta 9-THC-induced catalepsy while pre-treatment with naloxone had no effect. Although the cataleptogenic effect of delta 9-THC could be pharmacologically manipulated by anticholinergic pre-treatment, its discriminative stimulus effects were not changed in the same animals. These results demonstrate that distinctive mechanisms of action exist for these cannabinoid-induced behaviors.
