OMIA:000267-9986 : Delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol seizure in Oryctolagus cuniculus (rabbit)

Categories: Nervous system phene

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific symbol: thc

Species-specific description: Fish et al. (1981): "Delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major psychoactive ingredient of marijuana, causes nonfatal convulsions in rabbits of a closed colony of New Zealand White rabbits (Uaz: NZW). The convulsive phenotype appears to be associated with homozygous expression of a single autosomal recessive gene with full penetrance."
