Endocannabinoid system in neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]
Journal of Neurochemistry, 2017 AbstractMost neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs) are characterized by cognitive impairment and other neurological defects. The definite cause of and pathways underlying the progression of theseNDDs are not well‐defined. Several mechanisms have been proposed to contribute to the development ofNDDs.
