Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants
US 6630507 B1
Cannabinoids have been found to have
antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new
found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and
prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as
ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The
cannabinoids are found to have particular application as
neuroprotectants, 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. Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as
cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid
toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high
doses useful in the method of the present invention. A particular
disclosed class of cannabinoids useful as neuroprotective antioxidants
is formula (I) wherein the R group is independently selected from the
group consisting of H, CH
3, and COCH3
