The hedonic properties of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) were assessed in place and taste conditioning paradigms in both Lewis and Sprague-Dawley rat strains. THC produced place avoidance, taste avoidance, and aversive taste reactivity responses in both strains. The Lewis strain displayed more aversive taste reactions and a stronger taste avoidance when conditioned with lower doses of THC than did the Sprague-Dawley strain of rats. THC is an anomalous drug of abuse that appears to be aversive to rats when assessed by these measures.
在Lewis和Sprague-Dawley两种品系的大鼠中,通过位置条件化和味觉条件化范式评估了δ-9-四氢大麻酚(THC)的享乐属性。THC在两种品系中均产生位置回避、味觉回避和厌恶味觉反应。与Sprague-Dawley品系的大鼠相比,Lewis品系在用低剂量THC进行条件化时表现出更多的厌恶味觉反应和更强的味觉回避。当通过这些指标进行评估时,THC是一种异常的滥用药物,对大鼠似乎具有厌恶作用。
