A recent study conducted at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia, examined the effects of prenatal opioid exposure on the development of astrocytes and synaptic circuitry in the central nervous system. The researchers found that opioids have detrimental effects on neurons and glia in the CNS, and prenatal opioid exposure disrupts the structural maturation of astrocytes and promotes the accumulation of lipid droplets. The study suggests a complex neuroadaptive response in the event of impaired astrocyte signaling. This research provides valuable insights into the impact of prenatal opioid exposure on brain development. [Extracted from the article] |
