Astroglial CB1 Cannabinoid Receptors Mediate CP 55,940-Induced Conditioned Place Aversion Through Cyclooxygenase-2 Signaling in Mice
Cannabinoids (CBs), such as phytocannabinoids, synthetic CBs, and endogenous CBs, can be neuroprotective, rewarding, or aversive. The aversive effects of CBs may hinder their medical and recreational applications. It is unknown which type of CB receptors mediates the direct aversive effects of synth...

These findings conclude that CPA effect of CP 55,940 is mediated by the astroglial CB1Rs through COX-2 signaling, suggesting that selective COX-2 inhibition or precise isolation of astroglial CB1R activity may be the strategy for treating aversive response of medical and recreational administrations of marijuana.Jin CongKangrong LuWenjie ZouZiming LiZhipeng GuoXiangzhen TongJiawei ZhengJiawei ZhengJianping ZhuShuji LiWangming ZhangYanwu GuoTian-Ming GaoTian-Ming GaoRongqing ChenRongqing ChenRongqing ChenFrontiers Media S.A.articleastrocytecannabinoidcannabinoid receptorconditioned place aversioncyclooxygenase-2Neurosciences.
