Cannabis use during adolescence has raised concerns about its potential impact on brain development. This paper delves into the mechanisms by which cannabis affects the developing brain, focusing on the role of astrocytes and their CB1 receptors in regulating brain plasticity. A recent study provides compelling evidence for the crucial role of astrocytic CB1 receptors in brain plasticity, highlighting the need for further research to understand the long-term consequences of cannabis use during adolescence.
