Newest firstAbstract The endocannabinoid (eCB) system has been proposed as a potential target for developing new medications for opioid use disorder (OUD). However, the status of the eCB system, specifically brain cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) in OUD, is unknown. In this study, CB1R availability was measured in males with OUD on stable opioid agonist treatment (OAT) (n = 10) versus healthy controls (HC) (n = 18), using H…
Open article record in new tab ↗Abstract Early life adversity has a lasting impact on the endocannabinoid (eCB) system based on animal models. However, the impact of early life adversity such as childhood trauma (CT) on the eCB system has not been thoroughly studied. We assessed the availability of cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) in individuals with CT compared to healthy controls without CT (HCs). Cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) availabil…
Open article record in new tab ↗RationaleRecent reports have shown increased cannabis use among women, leading to growing concerns about cannabis use disorder (CUD). Some evidence suggests a faster progression to addiction in women, known as the "telescoping effect." While there is preclinical evidence suggesting biological sex influences cannabinoid effects, human research remains scant. We investigated sex differences in the response to oral t…
BACKGROUND: Alcohol and marijuana are the two most abused substances in US colleges. However, research on the combined influence (cross sectional or longitudinal) of these substances on academic performance is currently scant. METHODS: Data were derived from the longitudinal 2-year Brain and Alcohol Research in College Students (BARCS) study including 1142 freshman students who completed monthly marijuana use and…
