Differential effects of gestational Cannabis smoke and phytocannabinoid injections on male and female rat offspring behavior.
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry
January 2025
Our understanding of the implications of gestational Cannabis exposure (GCE) remains unclear as Cannabis use increases worldwide. Much of the existing knowledge of the effects of GCE has been gained from preclinical experiments using injections of isolated Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) at relatively high doses. Few investigations of the effects of GCE to smoke from the whole Cannabis flower have been conducted, despite this being the most common mode of human consumption.

- It is important to trace and understand the connections between different communities and animal remains like bones.
- Recognizing these links can enhance our understanding of cultural practices and historical contexts.
- Recommendations suggest prioritizing these relationships in research and conservation efforts.
Article Synopsis
- - The new pump-probe system uses a 60-MHz dual-comb oscillator and ultra-low noise supercontinuum to improve measurement speed and reduce complexity, especially for low excitation fluences.
- - This setup is capable of operating in different modes and allows for detailed study of excited-state dynamics, specifically of the non-fullerene electron acceptor Y6, which is important for solar cell technology.
- - The system achieves high sensitivity in differential transmission measurements and aims to enhance ultrafast spectroscopy research.
Background: Small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer (SCNC) is a rare aggressive type of neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) characterized by aggressive clinical course and lack of response to hormone therapy.
Case Description: We present a case report of a 60-year-old man diagnosed with a histologically confirmed primary metastatic (bone, lymph nodes and visceral) SCNC with small components of an adenocarcinoma with clinical symptoms mimicking an acute prostatitis. Of note, serum based neuroendocrine markers (carcinoembryonic antigen, chromogranin A) were negative and the patient had a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) elevation.
The fish's genomes change so slowly that species separated since the dinosaurs can produce fertile hybrids today.

While the role of the NAc core in reward and effort-based decision making is well established, its role in working memory (WM) processes is incompletely understood. The odor span task (OST) has been proposed as a measure of non-spatial working memory capacity (WMC) as it requires rodents to select a novel odor from an increasing number of familiar odors to obtain a food reward.
