Abnormal developmental of hippocampal subfields and amygdalar subnuclei volumes in young adults with heavy cannabis use: A three-year longitudinal study
The current findings suggest that long-term heavy cannabis use impacts maturational process of the amygdala and hippocampus, especially in subregions with high concentrations of cannabinoid type 1 receptors (CB1Rs) and involvement in adult neurogenesis.
