Overview

This investigation refers to the study of the cannabinoids dronabinol and cannabidiol (CBD) by the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), specifically for their acute effects on patients with bipolar disorder. Dronabinol is a synthetic form of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that acts as a partial agonist at the Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) and Cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2), mimicking the psychoactive and therapeutic effects of natural cannabis. Cannabidiol is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid with a complex pharmacological profile, acting as a negative allosteric modulator of CB1 and an agonist at the 5-HT1A receptor. The UCSD clinical program (NCT02432313) utilized a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover design to evaluate how these substances influence cognitive performance and circulating endocannabinoid levels in individuals with bipolar disorder compared to healthy volunteers.
