Abstract
⺠Endocannabinoids modulate the strength of glutamate synapses in the dorsal raphe via CB1 receptors. ⺠Dorsal raphe serotonin neurons release endocannabinoids “on demand”. ⺠The release of endocannabinoids from serotonin fine tune synaptic transmission in the dorsal raphe. ⺠The cross talk between endocannabinoids and the serotonin system regulates stress responses.
