Involvement of the endocannabinoid system in alcohol dependence: the biochemical, behavioral and genetic evidence.

Drug and alcohol dependence - 1 Sept 2011

Erdozain Amaia M, Callado Luis F

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent advances in the understanding of alcohol dependence suggest that the endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a key role in the neurobiological mechanisms underlying this pathology. METHODS: The aim of the present review is to show the currently available biochemical, behavioral and genetic evidence on the involvement of the ECS in alcohol dependence. DISCUSSION: Firstly, biochemical studies have...
