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 ↗The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a critical role in fear learning and maintenance and may, therefore, be implicated in the pathophysiology of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The exact role of cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R), a key component of the ECS, remains unclear. Although preclinical studies largely suggest CB1R downregulation in PTSD, the only prior study of CB1R availability in individuals with P…
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…
