Cannabis smoke’s effects on brain markers vary by age in mice
A 30-day experiment in 40 younger and older mice found age-dependent effects on inflammatory markers largely restricted to one brain region.A 30-day experiment in 40 younger and older mice found age-dependent effects on inflammatory markers largely restricted to one brain region.
Mouse study · 40 miceMechanisms
Who was studied40 younger and older C57Bl/6J mice, against placebo cigarette smoke
What changedCannabis smoke raised hippocampal inflammatory markers in younger mice but lowered them in older mice compared with placebo smoke
The catchBrain marker effects relative to clean air were not measured; controls received placebo smoke
