Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The synthetic cannabinoid AM-2201, which has been abused worldwide, was chronically administered to drug-naive ICR male mice (6-week, n=6) for 7 days. After chronic administration, the cerebrum specimens were collected by dissection under anesthesia, and mass-spectrometry based metabolome analysis and gene expression analysis using real-time qPCR were executed. Metabolome analysis revealed that AM-2201 administered and control groups were unsatisfactory separated in PCA score plots: chronic administration of AM-2201 did not cause energy metabolism disruption, contrary to the acute toxic effect of AM-2201 which has been show to alter energy metabolism in the cerebrum. In addition, four genes related to energy metabolism were not significantly expressed in the chronically administered mice. These results suggests that energy metabolism of the chronically administered mice recovered to their original state by tolerance due to chronic administration of AM-2201.
