Abstract:
Disclosed are a cannabinoid composition and an application of the same in preparing a medicine for treating neurodegenerative diseases, so as to solve the drawbacks of conventional medicines such as serious side effects and degraded therapeutic effect after long-term administration. The cannabinoid composition includes: cannabidiol and cannabigerol, a mass ratio of the cannabidiol to the cannabigerol ranging from 1:1 to 1:10, or from 1:0.3 to 1:0.5, or from 1:0.5 to 1:0.7, or from 1:07 to 1:1. The present disclosure adopts the experimental method of inducing differentiation of fibroblasts to dopaminergic neurons, wherein by observing the cell morphology, quantity, and relative expression level of DA-related factor of the differentiation-induced and cultured fibroblasts, and screening various common cannabinoids and different combinations thereof based on their impacts on inducing differentiation of the fibroblasts into dopaminergic neurons, it was found that the CBD+CBG combination offered an optimal effect in improving viability and dopamine-secreting capability of the dopaminergic neuronal cells; besides, the CBD+CBG combination is free of the addictive substance THC, which thus significantly reduces side effects and may be applied to prepare medicines for treating neurodegenerative diseases.
