Abstract excerpt
Background: The cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2R), a cannabinoid receptor primarily expressed in immune cells, has been found in the brain, particularly in the hippocampus, where it plays crucial roles in modulating various neural functions, including synaptic plasticity, neuroprotection, neurogenesis, anxiety and stress responses, and neuroinflammation. Despite this growing understanding, the intricate...
