摘要

Ovarian steroids, estrogen and progesterone, influence the sensitivity Of certain neural processes to cannabinoid treatment by modulation Of brain dopaminergic activity. We examined the effects of the active ingredient of cannabis. △~9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), on sexual behavior in female rats and its influence on Steroid hormone recep- tors and neurotransmitters in the facilitation of sexual receptivity. Our results revealed that the facilitatory effect of THC was inhibited by antagonists to both progesterone and dopamine D_1 receptors. To test further the idea that progesterone receptors (PR) and/or dopa- mine receptors (D_1R) in the hypothalamus are required for THC-' facilitated sexual behavior in rodents, antisense and sense oligonu- cleotides to PR and D_1R were administered intracerebroventricularly (ICV) into the third cerebral ventricle of ovariectomized, estradiol benzoate-primed rats. Progesterone- and THC-facilitated sexual be- havior was inhibited in animals treated with antisense oligonucleo- tides to PR or to D_1R. Antagonists to cannabinoid receptor-1 subtype (CB_l), but not to cannabinoid receptor-2 subtype (CB_2) inhibited progesterone- and dopamine-facilitated sexual receptivity in female rats. Our studies indicate that THC acts on the CB_1 cannabinoid receptor to initiate a signal transduction response that requires both membrane dopamine and intracellular progesterone receptors for effective induction of sexual behavior.
