Here's a really good article from the Journal of The Endocrine Society. It's quite heavy reading, but I linked it here for anyone interested in how cannabinoids interact with the reproductive system.
An excerpt:
Mammalian reproduction is a complicated process designed to diversify and strengthen the genetic complement of the offspring and to safeguard regulatory systems at various steps for propagating procreation. An emerging concept in mammalian reproduction is the role of endocannabinoids, a group of endogenously produced lipid mediators, that bind to and activate cannabinoid receptors. Although adverse effects of cannabinoids on fertility have been implicated for years, the mechanisms by which they exert these effects were not clearly understood. With the identification of cannabinoid receptors, endocannabinoid ligands, their key synthetic and hydrolytic pathways, and the generation of mouse models missing cannabinoid receptors, a wealth of information on the significance of cannabinoid/endocannabinoid signaling in spermatogenesis, fertilization, preimplantation embryo development, implantation, and postimplantation embryonic growth has been generated...

ReplyDeleteThis was very interesting, but maybe you should point out that Cannabinoids are just a class of chemicals and not only to do with cannabis (although obviously Cannabis contains alot of them), I mean there's at least one cannabanoid in chocolate

ReplyDeleteAs a psych major, this does go more than a little over my head, though.
I'm looking forward to your next post!
ReplyDeletetoo much for me dexters lab.
ReplyDeleteI've always felt the effects of Cannabinoids are 'over-studied', if you will. Look hard enough into anything and you'll find stuff that seems related.
ReplyDeleteJust use everything in moderation and there shouldn't be too many problems.
