Terminology
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) Axis: Neuroendocrine central stress system, responsible for creation of cortisol. Also plays a role in mood, digestion, and immune function
Cortisol: Primary stress hormone. End product of the HPA axis’ stress response
Endocannabinoid System (eCB or ECS): Our endogenous cannabinoid system, located diffusely throughout the body
- "Almost all body processes can involve endocannabinoid signaling” - Piazza et al., 2017
- Helps us “relax, eat, sleep, forget, & protect” - Di Marzo et al., 1998
Chronic pain: Pain that lasts longer than 3-6 months, becomes its own disease state

Terminology cont.
Cannabinoid Receptors: Both G protein-coupled receptors
- CB1R: Widespread, common in CNS, psychoactivity, pain relief, modulates neurotransmission throughout the body, responsible for THC “high”
- CB2R: Mainly on immune cells, anti-inflammation, muscle relaxant, less understood
Endocannabinoids: The body’s naturally occurring cannabinoids
- AEA (Anandamide): Primarily activates central CB1, weak peripheral CB2- 2-AG (2-Arachidonoylglycerol): Full agonist of CB1 & CB2, primary ligand of CB2
Phytocannabinoids: Primary cannabinoids present in cannabis sativa
- THC: Primary psychoactive component in cannabis. Effective in reducing pain, nausea, and inflammation. Increases appetite, anxiety at high doses. CB1R & CB2R agonist
- CBD: Non-intoxicating. Reduces THC-high, muscle tension, anxiety, and convulsions

HPA axis & the stress response
1.First, a stressor causes the hypothalamus to release corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)
2.CRF binds to receptors in the anterior pituitary gland, causing release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
3.ACTH binds to receptors in the adrenals (kidneys) that generate cortisol
4.Cortisol finally acts back on the hypothalamus, downregulating the system and hopefully returning it to equilibrium. Negative feedback loop

HPA axis dysfunction
▪ Prolonged and repeated stressors create a constant “fight or flight” response usually meant for short bursts
▪ Chronic stress weakens the immune system, strains the circulatory system, and puts constant cognitive strain on individuals
▪ Stress-induced dysregulation and sensitization of HPA axis similar across PTSD, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, and IBS

Understanding the problem: Over 58 million Americans suffer
from anxiety disorders1
2019 North American Cannabis Summit 8
● Only 36.9% of this population seek and receive treatment 1
● 20% of American adults feel they do not do enough to manage their stress 2
● Gen Z and Millennials reported highest levels of stress 2
● Gen Z (youngest generation) most likely to report poor mental health 2

CB1 receptors are present throughout the HPA axis

● Depending on the dosage, ratio, & situation, cannabinoids can be anxiolytic or anxiogenic● Low doses of endocannabinoids dull stress, while high doses of ECBs increase stress● Larger doses of THC => more anxiety

ECS & stress
▪ We will see how eCB signaling generally reduces anxiety, fear responses, and provides buffering from chronic stress
▪ eCB activity dulls anxiety in less stressful situations to help prevent chronic stress
▪ During highly stressful stimuli, the ECS can increase anxiety responses

eCBs & stress
▪ Chronic stress reduces the # of CB1 receptors, although it can recover after a few days
▪ Loss of CB1Rs is likely due to activation of glucocorticoid receptors, because a glucocorticoid antagonist (RU486) blocks reduction in CB1Rs
▪ In all populations, lower levels of circulating AEA correlate with higher anxiety

CB1 & the HPA axis
▪ eCBs regulate unnecessary glucocorticoid secretion in response to chronic homotypic stress
▪ This plays a protective role against developing chronic stress syndrome
▪ “In more general terms, the hypothesis can be put forward that the eCB system facilitates the activation of resilience factors during and/or after stress exposure." - Russo et al., 2012

ECS at CB1 functions as stress-recovery system
2019 North American Cannabis Summit 17
● eCB system regulates habituation to homotypic stressors, not heterotypic ones○ Homotypic Stressors: Stressors of the
same variety vs. a barrage of many different kinds of stressors (ex: Marital problems, work problems, health, poverty)
● 2-AG release increased in response to repeated stress (Patel et al., 2005b, Rademacher et al., 2008)

eCB system the “gatekeeper” of the HPA axis
2019 North American Cannabis Summit 18
● A disrupted endocannabinoid system is associated with failure to adapt to chronic stress
● Data suggests deficient eCB system may be implicated in affective disorders such as depression
● CB1 antagonists increase corticosterone secretion and enhance neuronal activity in the PVN, indicating higher stress responses in the HPA-axis
● Typical antidepressants have a downstream effect on eCB signaling in the limbic brain and that alteration contributes to their effectiveness

Acute vs. chronic stress
▪ In response to acute stress, 2-AG levels do not tend to change much
▪ Repeated stress exposure, or chronic stress, causes an increase in 2-AG and downstream reduction in amygdala fear activity, driving habituation to stress.‒ A similar phenomenon happens in fear
extinction, which has also been shown to be mediated by the ECS

Chronic stress, the hippocampus, & eCBs
▪ Chronic stress conditions causes significant downregulation of CB1 and decreases 2-AG content in the hippocampus
▪ This creates deficits in behavioral flexibility in rodents, ‒ This signals a potential role in
pervasive and unhealthy behaviors in mental health conditions including anxiety & depression

Cannabinoids & resilience
▪ eCBs regulate HPA axis’ long-term response to stress, improve coping, and improve stress habituation
▪ Deficient eCB systems increases risk of developing PTSD & depression
▪ CB1R agonists in vmPFC help reduce anxiety, fear expression, and active coping responses to stress.

Pain: the biological
▪ Pain is first sensed by nociceptors throughout the body▪ The signal travels through the spinal cord, crossing to
the opposite side of the body▪ Afterwards, the signal travels through multiple lower
levels of the brain until it is projected to the primary sensorimotor cortex via the thalamus
▪ The limbic system mediates emotional and rewarding properties of pain
▪ Takeway: pain is in and always from the brain▪ Nonetheless, biology alone cannot explain all of the
variance in pain

Medical cannabis as medicine, not recreation
Misconceptions:
▪ Not just another excuse to get high. The high is not the point
▪ Most medical doses do not need to cause prolonged intoxication, especially after tolerance is built
▪ “Sativa,” “indica,” and “hybrid” are a taxonomy that inadequately describe variance in cannabis
▪ THC-induced high and side effects can be reduced by including CBD

Cannabis dosing strategies for stress
▪ Start low, go slow, stay low▪ Cannabis medicine is individualized; dose finding
and adjustments are common▪ CBD is consistently anxiolytic, doses of 5-10mg,
starting once daily, up to 3x a day ▪ Lower amounts of THC can also be anxiolytic (1-
5mg). ▪ Be sure to combine THC & CBD for maximal
anxiety relief and attenuated high▪ Tinctures & edibles for long-term relief (4-8 hours,
15-90 min onset), vaporization for immediate relief (2-4 hours, 5-10 min onset)
