Popis: The endocannabinoid (eCB) system plays a key role in regulating stress. Dysregulation of the eCB system is implicated in stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression, PTSD). Despite optimism that eCBs may be a potential biomarker for stress-related disorders and target for intervention, results have been inconsistent across studies. This project will systematically review the literature on the role of eCBs—specifically anandamide (AEA) and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)—at rest or in response to acute psychosocial stress in individuals with and without stress-related disorders (SRDs).
