DHA may potentiate synaptic plasticity (and cognition) via retrograde CB1 signaling.

Use omega 3 (DHA) fatty acids as substrate for docosahexaenoylethanolamide (DHEA) hydrolysis
Protect the hippocampus and neurons from stress induced damage.
CB1: A synaptogenic receptor

Protocol:

Cannabinoids and hippocampal neurogenesis:

DHA:

Anandamide signaling:

FAAH (fatty acid amide hydrolase):

Introduction to fatty amides:

Synaptic Plasticity:

hippocampus, anandamide, FAAH, fatty acids, THC, neurogenesis, synaptogenesis
