Our knowledge about the consumption of cannabinoids during pregnancy lacks consistent evidence to determine whether it compromises neurodevelopment. Addressing this task is challenging and complex since pregnant women display multiple confounding factors that make it difficult to identify the real effect of cannabinoids’ consumption. Recent studies shed light on this issue by using pluripotent stem cells of human origin, which can recapitulate human neurodevelopment. These revolutionary platforms allow studying how exogenous cannabinoids could alter human neurodevelopment without ethical concerns and confounding factors. Here, we review the information to date on the clinical studies about the impact of exogenous cannabinoid consumption on human brain development and how exogenous cannabinoids alter nervous system development in humans using cultured pluripotent stem cells as 2D and 3D platforms to recapitulate brain development.
