Transgenerational effects of perinatal cannabis exposure on female reproductive parameters in mice

Abstract The use of cannabis during pregnancy and nursing is a growing public health concern, and the multigenerational impacts of perinatal cannabis exposure remain largely unknown. To address this knowledge gap, we sought to examine the long-term consequences of perinatal cannabis use on reproductive function and how it might impact subsequent generations. Pregnant female mice were exposed to control vehicle or cannabis extract [25, 100, or 200 mg/ml Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in the cannabis extract] from gestational day 1 to postnatal
