Abstract:

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder and is characterised by social communication difficulties. Inflammation and immune system activation is reported as pathogenicity of ASD. It has been demonstrated that cannabis consumption improves interpersonal communication and reduces hostile feelings. In this study, we evaluated the beneficial effect of Δ۹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on ASD’s inflammatory factors with bioinformatic tools. Molecular docking showed THC interact with ASD’s inflammatory factors specially IL۱۲B and RELA. It seems that THC alleviates inflammation in ASD by targeting ASD’s inflammatory factors.
