Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoglyceride lipase (MGLL) are the major endocannabinoid metabolic enzymes. Owing to the importance of endocannabinoid system in addiction, the Pro129Thr polymorphism in the FAAH gene has reportedly been associated with substance abuse and dependence in a Caucasian population. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the single nucleodtide polymorphisms of the FAAH and...
