Figure Legend Snippet: Co-administration of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and GABA A receptor antagonist pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) affects the THC-induced behavioral stereotypy in adult zebrafish. ( A ) At 1.5 mM PTZ with 1 μM THC the THC-induced Repetition Index (RI), calculated as a mean ± SEM, was not statistically different from the controls (EtOH) (ns p = 0.1578). ( B ) 1.5 mM PTZ and 1 mM PTZ with 1 μM THC caused significant increases in swimming velocity compared to controls (EtOH) (* p < 0.05). Controls EtOH (0.0015%) (n = 19), 1 μM THC (n = 23), 1.5 mM PTZ (n = 12), 0.2 mM PTZ + 1 μM THC (n = 6), 1 mM PTZ + 1 μM THC (n = 5), 1.5 mM PTZ + 1 μM THC (n = 12) and 2 mM PTZ + 1 μM THC (n = 6). Mean RI values of 0.2 mM PTZ (n = 6) and 2 mM PTZ (n = 6), were similar to 1.5 mM PTZ. Values without a letter in common are statistically different to the control condition ( p < 0.05, Kruskal–Wallis and Dunn's multiple comparisons test).

Figure Legend Snippet: Potential mechanisms underlying the associations between Cannabis consumption and risks of psychosis/schizophrenia-like symptoms, with the current study’s pharmacological approaches. Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) reduces N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) release via NMDA receptor antagonism. THC also inhibits γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) release from interneurons in the prefrontal cortex, potentiating dopamine release. Both NMDA receptor hypoactivity and heightened dopaminergic signaling are hallmarks of schizophrenia. Pentylenetetrazol (PTZ).
