title: Effects of delta 9-THC on human platelet phospholipids.
abstract: The possible change in Platelet lipids after smoking delta 9-THC was studied in chronic hashish users. The fluctuations of total phospholipid content is related to alterations of individual phospholipids. Changes in phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine are discussed in relation to membrane derangement leading to the increased rate of platelet lysis and aggregation under high doses of the drug.
