Myelin is the protective coating around nerve fibers that helps brain signals travel quickly and properly.
THC helped immature cells develop into oligodendrocytes, the cells that make myelin, and increased myelination in the central nervous system.
The effect involved CB1, CB2, and mTORC1 signaling, pointing to a direct role for cannabinoid pathways in myelin formation.
