Newest firstBackground Recent preclinical studies have shown sex-dependent antidepressant-like responses of cannabidiol in adolescence, which were dependent on biological sex, early-life stress, and dose. In particular, cannabidiol (10 mg/kg) induced acute and sustained antidepressant-like responses in adolescent male rats, while it lacked efficacy in females. This follow-up study aimed at further characterizing cannabidiol's…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Few studies have previously evaluated the long-term impact of initiating the combined use of alcohol and cocaine early-in-life during adolescence. Our preclinical study characterized changes in affective-like behavior and/or voluntary ethanol consumption emerging later on in adulthood induced by a prior adolescent drug exposure, as well as tested therapeutical interventions (i.e., cannabidiol or ketamin…
Open article record in new tab ↗There is an urgent need for developing novel pharmacological treatment options for adolescent depression, and to ensure an optimal translational outcome to the clinic, sex should be included as a biological variable in preclinical studies. In this context, the present study compared the antidepressant-like potential of ketamine and cannabidiol, with the clinical standard fluoxetine, in adolescent rats exposed to m…
