Our findings indicate that CBD possesses neuroprotective properties that significantly counteract the neurodevelopmental impairments induced by neonatal hypoxia in rats. This study not only supports the therapeutic potential of CBD in managing conditions characterized by neurodevelopmental challenges due to hypoxia but also underscores the necessity for further investigation into the specific molecular mechanisms driving CBD's neuroprotective effects. Further research is essential to explore CBD's clinical applications and its potential role in treating human neurodevelopmental disorders.
