hey there...
I just found a very short article on the implication of endocannabinoids, or rather a lack thereof, in depression, and how this might be a new pathway leading to novel antidepressant treatment.
this is apparently still in very early stages, but it's by scientists from, among others, McGill and Vanderbilt..http://www.cell.com/trends/pharmacological-sciences/abstract/S0165-6147(09)00121-7
finally the confirmation of what I have always been suspecting or what I have experienced actually.. it's sad it will take the regular time of developing a drug + the "bad receptor" delay.. seeing how long it took for thc in pain management it may actually be quite long, but maybe we are a step further today.. I sure hope so..
