Cannabis use during pregnancy may cause fetal toxicity driven by in utero exposure to (-)-∆ -tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and its psychoactive metabolite, (±)-11-hydroxy-∆ -THC (11-OH-THC).

Therefore, we investigated whether THC and its metabolites are effluxed by placental transporters using the dual cotyledon, dual perfusion, term human placenta.
