The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol reduces lesion expansion and white matter damage after spinal cord injury
A series of pathological events secondary to spinal cord injury (SCI) contribute to the spread of the damage, which aggravates neurological deficits. Here we report that a single dose of the neuroprotective endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) administered early after SCI reduces lesion ex...
