Newest firstAbstract The use of Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ8-THC) has become increasingly prevalent in the United States but its metabolic pathways remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to identify the key enzymes responsible for the 11′-hydroxylation of Δ8-THC, its primary metabolic pathway, and assess the effect of metabolizing enzyme genotype on this activity. The intrinsic clearance of recombinant (r) CYP2C9 was >…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabis products that contain the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) cannabinoid are emerging as promising therapeutic agents for the treatment of medical conditions such as chronic pain. THC elicits psychoactive effects through modulation of dopaminergic neurons, thereby altering levels of dopamine in the brain. This case report highlights the complexity associated with medicinal cannabis and the health risks associated…
Open article record in new tab ↗While the impact of genetic polymorphisms on the metabolism of various pharmaceuticals is well known, more data are needed to better understand the specific influence of pharmacogenetics on the metabolism of delta 9-tetrahydocannabinol (Δ9-THC). Therefore, the aim of the study was to analyze the potential impact of variations in genes coding for phase I enzymes of the Δ9-THC metabolism. First, a multiplex assay fo…
