Effects of cannabidiol on biomineralization and inflammatory mediators expression in immortalized murine dental pulp cells and macrophages under pro-inflammatory conditions.

Objectives: This study investigated the in vitro effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on dental pulp cells and macrophages under pro-inflammatory conditions.

Materials And Methods: Mouse dental pulp cells (OD-21) were pre-stimulated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (10 ng/mL) or left untreated, then exposed to CBD at concentrations of 0.01 µM, 0.

Cannabigerol Mitigates Haloperidol-Induced Vacuous Chewing Movements in Mice.

Chronic use of typical antipsychotics can lead to varying motor effects depending on the timing of analysis. Acute treatment typically induces hypokinesia, resembling parkinsonism, while repeated use can result in tardive dyskinesia, a hyperkinetic syndrome marked by involuntary orofacial movements, such as vacuous chewing movements in mice. Tardive dyskinesia is particularly concerning due to its potential irreversibility and associated motor discomfort.

Acute cannabidiol treatment reverses behavioral impairments induced by embryonic valproic acid exposure in male mice.

Cannabidiol (CBD), the major non-psychotomimetic compound of the Cannabis sativa plant, has shown promising effects in addressing various symptoms associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This neurodevelopmental disorder typically impacts cognitive, behavioral, social communication, and motor skills domains. However, effective treatments for the wide range of symptoms associated with the disorder are limited and may trigger undesirable effects.

Cannabidiol exerts antipyretic effects by downmodulating inflammatory mediators in LPS-induced fever.

Contrasting to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD) has virtually no psychoactive effects and thus presents a minor risk for abuse. Furthermore, emerging preclinical and clinical evidence indicates that CBD exerts several beneficial pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Even though fever is one of the responses associated with systemic inflammation, no previous study assessed the putative impact of CBD on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced fever.
