BRAIN INJURIES and the NEUROPROTECTANT Properties and Therapeutic Effects of Medical Cannabis Marijuana Cannabinoids Tetrahydrocannabinol THC and Cannabidiol CBD


Tetrahydrocannabinol THC and Cannabidiol CBD

Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants United States Patent #6630507
 AbstractCannabinoids have been found to have antioxidantproperties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new foundproperty makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Thecannabinoids are found to have particular application asneuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia. Nonpsychoactivecannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactivecannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention. A particular disclosed class of cannabinoids useful asneuroprotective antioxidants is formula (I) wherein the R group is independently selected from the group consisting of H, CH.sub.3, andCOCH.sub.3. ##STR1##
