CB1 antagonism increases excitatory synaptogenesis in a cortical spheroid model of fetal brain development
Abstract The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a complex role in the development of neural circuitry during fetal brain development. The cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) controls synaptic strength at both excitatory and inhibitory synapses and thus contributes to the balance of excitatory and inhi...
