PLOS ONE: Type-1 (CB1) Cannabinoid Receptor Promotes Neuronal Differentiation and Maturation of Neural Stem Cells

PLOS ONE: Type-1 (CB1) Cannabinoid Receptor Promotes Neuronal Differentiation and Maturation of Neural Stem Cells

"n conclusion, our study highlights a novel contribution of CB1 receptor to the regulation of NSC neuronal differentiation and maturation in vitro. In addition to the previously reported effects on NSC proliferation and migration [22], [50], our work suggests that eCBs may also support repair of brain injuries through the enhanced differentiation of precursor cells into mature neurons."
