Endocannabinoids in stressed humans
Rationale : The endocannabinoid system has been shown to be an important regulator of the stress response and adaptation to stressful situations and environments in animals.

Stress Promotes Drug Seeking Through Glucocorticoid-Dependent Endocannabinoid Mobilization in the Prelimbic Cortex [PDF]
Background Clinical reports suggest that rather than directly driving cocaine use, stress may create a biological context within which other triggers for drug use become more potent. We hypothesize that stress-induced increases in corticosterone “set the

The Role of the Endocannabinoid System in Learning-Induced Neurogenesis [PDF]
Though it was previously thought that the birth of new neurons stopped after development, we now know that neurogenesis continues throughout life in some areas of the brain (i.e. the olfactory bulb and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus).

Endocannabinoids and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
Non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has gained a lot of attention recently due to the increased prevalence of diabetes, obesity, and hyperlipedemia. The endogenous compounds, endocannabinoids (ECBs), bind to the same receptors as tetrahydrocannabinol ...
