Acute inhibition of MAGL attenuated some stress-related responses in msP rats but not voluntary alcohol drinking. Our results provide new insights into the sex dimorphism documented in stress-induced responses and suggest that sex-specific endocannabinoid-based approaches should be considered in the clinical development of therapeutics.
