Laboratory research has shown promising results for using plant-derived, synthetic or endogenous cannabinoids for analgesia. However, human studies are few and far between and have been held up by the law and the lack of standardised extracts. This paper considers these drugs' potential uses in pain management.

Our knowledge about the consumption of cannabinoids during pregnancy lacks consistent evidence to determine whether it compromises neurodevelopment. Addressing this task is challenging and complex since pregnant women display multiple confounding factors that make it difficult to identify the real effect of cannabinoids' consumption. Recent studies shed light on this issue by using pluripotent stem cells of human origin, which can recapitulate human neurodevelopment.

To evade legal controls, new psychoactive substances (NPS), which have been designed as substitutes for traditional and synthetic drugs, are gradually dominating the drug market. Synthetic cannabinoids (SCs), which account for the majority of NPS, are rapidly being derivatized; consequently, controlling increasing abuse by merely listing individual compounds is difficult. Therefore, China has included the entire SC category of SCs listed as legal controlled substances since July 1, 2021.

Background: Synthetic cannabinoids are one of the most identified abused drugs nowadays. Their popularity is due to their psychoactive effects, which resemble delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol. This study investigates the genotoxic potential of three synthetic cannabinoids of indazole-passed drugs, AB-Fubinaca, AMBFubinaca, and EMB-Fubinaca (at a final concentration of 200 nM).
