for each cannabinoid receptor or for the proteins involved in endocannabinoids inactivation. The generation of genetically modified mice with selective mutations in these endocannabinoid system components has now provided important advances in establishing their specific contribution to drug addiction. These genetic tools have identified the particular interest of CB1 cannabinoid receptor and endogenous anandamide as potential targets for drug addiction treatment. Novel genetic tools will allow determining if the modulation of CB2 cannabinoid receptor activity and 2-arachidonoylglycerol tone can also have an important therapeutic relevance for drug addiction.

Anokhin Research Institute of Normal Physiology, Moscow, 125009, Russia Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which a-synuclein (a-syn) toxic aggregates specifically from the synuclein protein family and neurotransmitters such as dopamine (DA) play a critical role. a-Syn itself is known to be natively unstructured but it is in equilibrium with subpopulations of more compact structures and it is these aggregates that are thought to be linked to amyloid formation. In this respect, there are elevated autoantibody serum titers to a-synuclein monomers, oligomers and fibrils which appear to reach a zenith in Parkinsonian patients at the 5-year disease stage (Gruden et al., 2011). We have also demonstrated that in vitro, a-syn can form 18
