Effects of cannabidiol on miRNA expression in naïve mice
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The non-psychotomimetic phytocannabinoid cannabidiol (CBD) has shown anticonvulsant effects in several seizure models in rats and mice. However, the mechanisms by which CBD exerts its antiepileptic effects are not fully elucidated. MicroRNAs (miRNA) are short non-coding RNAs which regulate protein expression. Dysregulation of miRNAs can contribute to the pathology of various diseases, including epilepsy. This could indicate that the modulation of miRNAs is a potential mechanism of action for the therapeutic effects of CBD. Therefore, we sequenced hippocampal samples from CBD or vehicle treated naive mice to see the effects of CBD on miRNA expression.
