Article Synopsis
  • LSD is a hallucinogen that influences brain neuroplasticity, and the study explores how its exposure during periadolescence impacts brain structure and behavior in mice.
  • Researchers administered LSD to mice and evaluated cognitive and motor functions, using advanced MRI techniques to analyze changes in brain structure and connectivity.
  • The results indicated that while overall cognitive and motor behavior remained unaffected, multiple doses of LSD led to significant alterations in gray matter microarchitecture, particularly in regions like the thalamus and sensory cortices, suggesting potential long-term effects on brain development.
