Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Endocannabinoids act as retrograde messengers thus controlling many synapses in the postnatal brain. In contrast, the concept that endocannabinoid functions are pivotal to fundamental developmental processes, including progenitor proliferation and fate specification, lineage segregation, neuronal migration, differentiation and survival, in the embryonic brain has just begun to emerge. Understanding the basic developmental and signaling principles controlled by endocannabinoids is pertinent to defining the molecular mechanisms establishing functional neuronal circuits with particular emphasis on synapse specification and functional diversification. Deciphering the spatial and temporal context of endocannabinoid signaling will also reveal the molecular substrates of permanent modifications to cellular structure and functions imposed by in utero cannabis exposure. Here, we review the ontogeny and recently identified functions of the endocannabinoid system with emphasis on the neuronal lineage during brain development, and discuss how fetal cannabis exposure may modify neuronal networks such that longterm changes to cognitive functions manifest in the affected offspring.
