The main psychotropic constituent of cannabis, 9-tetrahydrocannabinol THC ; , is lipophilic and accumulates in fat stores at relatively high concentrations. A number of medicolegal cases indicate that former long-term cannabis users may test positive for THC even though it was confirmed that they had not recently used the drug. It was noted that such users had been exposed to an intensely stressful situation or a regime of dramatic weight loss at the time of testing. Thus, we hypothesise that long-term stored THC in fat stores may be released under conditions promoting lipolysis. First a series of experiments were conducted using an in vitro model. Rat epididymal adipocytes were isolated and incubated with different doses of THC 1-10 M ; and further treated with adrenaline 10 M ; . dose-dependent passive release of THC was observed with this release being enhanced by adrenaline treatment. In a second study, an in vivo in vitro experiment was performed using epididymal adipocytes extracted from male rats exposed to THC 10 mg kg for 10 days ; and treated with adrenaline in culture. As expected an enhanced release of THC 252 106 ng ml ; was demonstrated which was well above the vehicle control 39 24 ng also conducted histological studies which showed a large difference in the overall surface area and cell number of adipocytes treated with THC S.A 6305 522 M2; C.N 12 2 cells ; compared to the vehicle control S.A 3211 377 M2; C.N 25.00 2.00 cells ; . Therefore, it is thought that THC may increase its own storage capacity by promoting lipogenesis. A third study involved a group of male rats being dosed with THC 10 mg kg ; for 3 days before being subjected to food deprivation for 30 h. Blood sample analysis via GC-MS of THC and the inactive metabolite THC acid THC-COOH ; revealed an elevation in THC-COOH 5 1 ng mL ; into food deprivation. Based on these preliminary findings, THC release from fat stores is enhanced under conditions of stress. More studies are required to confirm this phenomenon in vivo. In addition there needs to be an assessment on whether the THC concentrations released from fat stores would cause behavioral changes thus leading to a re-intoxicative effect and tamoxifen.
