Researchers have identified three distinct genetic pathways that explain how Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) leads to psychosis. By analyzing over 500 genetic markers and the role of the glutamate system, which is heavily impacted by THC, the team has laid the groundwork for precision models to identify high-risk users and develop targeted treatments for cannabis-related mental health disorders.
