摘要：
The research investigates the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on cognitive and neurochemical deficits caused by adolescent exposure to Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in male rats. Findings indicate that NAC effectively prevents THC-induced impairments in social behavior, memory, and cognitive flexibility, while also normalizing neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission. This study underscores the therapeutic potential of NAC in addressing the neuropsychiatric risks associated with adolescent cannabis use, emphasizing the need for interventions targeting oxidative stress mechanisms.

关键证据
NAC treatment prevents cognitive, synaptic, neuronal and neurochemical deficits induced by adolescent THC.
The findings highlight the critical role of THC-induced oxidative stress as a contributing factor to neuropsychiatric risk.
NAC is identified as a novel antioxidant treatment candidate for the prevention and/or reversal of THC-related pathophysiological outcomes.
