Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Neural endocannabinoid function appears to be involved in schizophrenia. Two endocannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2, are found in the brain and elsewhere in the body. We investigated roles of CB2 in schizophrenia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An association study was performed between tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CNR2 gene encoding the CB2 receptor and schizophrenia in two independent...
