This study shows that prenatal THC exposure affects repetitive behavior and PFC neuronal excitability in male rats, with no change in dopamine transmission but altered gene expression and sex differences in Netrin-1.

This study investigates sex-specific effects of prenatal THC exposure on stress-induced dopamine dysfunction and sensorimotor gating in rats, showing a role for HPA axis and dopamine signaling.

This study shows that prenatal THC exposure in male rats increases vulnerability to addiction-like behaviors by enhancing cue-driven dopamine responses and striatal encoding during reward seeking.

The paper shows that a gene-environment interaction involving MAO A gene variants and early life stress increases vulnerability to cocaine sensitization through endocannabinoid-dependent changes in GABAergic transmission in dopamine neurons.
