    J Psychopharmacol 26:144-9. 2012
    ..These findings suggest that, unlike other drugs of abuse, a history of cannabis use is not associated with alterations in striatal dopamine D(2)/D(3) receptor availability...

    Paul R A Stokes
    Psychiatry Group, MRC Clinical Sciences Centre, Imperial College, Hammersmith Hospital Campus, London, UK
    Neuroimage 48:186-90. 2009
    ..In animals, Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) increases the rate of dopamine neuronal firing and release in the striatum. Thus cannabis use may increase dopamine release in the human striatum leading to vulnerability to psychosis...
