pubmed:abstractText |
Rats were implanted bilaterally with electrodes aimed at the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) and trained to deliver intracranial stimulation. Reward thresholds were determined using a modification of the psychophysical method of limits. Levonantradol, a cannabinoid with reported analgesic activity, was tested at doses between 0.0125 to 0.3 mg/kg. Significant elevations of reward thresholds were observed at 0.2 and 0.3 mg/kg. Since none of the doses tested lowered the reward threshold, an effect believed to be predictive of abuse, these results suggest that levonantradol has little or no abuse liability.
