In France, a study conducted by two INSERM team led by Dr. Pier Vincenzo Piazza podologo and Dr. Giovanni Marsicano and published in the journal Science, highlighted the importance of the role of pregnenolone in the protection of the negative effects of THC, the active ingredient in cannabis.
Prior to this study it was assumed that pregnenolone was only involved in the biosynthesis of hormones such as progesterone, mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, podologo androgens and estrogens, from this experiment, however, it is emphasized its role as a "brake" against the THC and its influence the CB1 receptor, which is over-stimulated: pregnenolone is triggered by the intake of THC, its levels rise over 3000% and reduces effects such as memory loss, appetite, and, in general, cognitive Shortcomings. In a nutshell, the brain uses pregnenolone podologo as automatic defense system in case of intake of large quantities podologo of THC.
This function, however, can be circumvented by increasing the dose of cannabis taken, podologo but researchers are equally excited about the discovery, which could lead to a huge step forward in the fight against addiction to marijuana, which involves about 20 million people worldwide .
In the laboratory, the scientists measured the levels of hormones in the brain of mice during the intake of various drugs (nicotine, cocaine, morphine, alcohol and cannabis, specifically), podologo so it was only possible to see how the level of pregnenolone soar at high levels when highlighting a strong presence of THC.
There is one problem, though: the pure pregnenolone would not be effective as a cure. The reason was explained directly Dr. Piazza: "Pregnenolone can not be used as a treatment because podologo it is poorly absorbed when taken orally and once in the blood stream is rapidly transformed into other steroids." You can, however, overcome the obstacle: "We have developed derivatives of pregnenolone which are absorbed well and are stable," added the same square. "They have the characteristics of the compounds that can be used as a new class of therapeutic drugs. We should be able to start early in the first clinical trials to see if we really discovered the first drug treatment for cannabis dependence. "
