Microinjections of cannabidiol (CBD) into lateral hypothalamus (LH) would activate neurons placed into nucleus accumbens (AcbC) leading to an enhancement in the dopamine (DA) contents as well as an increase in wakefulness. Further studies will be needed to address this putative neurobiological mechanism of action of CBD on the sleep-wake cycle.
