Cannabidiol partially blocks the excessive sleepiness in hypocretindeficient rats: Preliminary data.

Murillo-Rodríguez E, Millán-Aldaco D, Palomero-Rivero M, Morales-Lara D, Mechoulam R, Drucker-Colín R (2019) Cannabidiol partially blocks the excessive sleepiness in hypocretindeficient rats: Preliminary data. CNS Neurol Disord Drug Targets 18(9):705-712. doi: 10.2174/1871527318666191021143300

Objective: To determine whether the systemic injection of CBD (5 mg/kg, i.p.) would block the excessive sleepiness in a narcoleptic model.

Summary: Preliminary findings suggest that CBD might prevent sleepiness in narcolepsy.

Usage: Orexin-SAP (490 ng/0.5 μL, n= 10) was bilaterally injected into the LH of rats to eliminate HCRT leading to the establishment of narcoleptic-like behavior.
