Core Tip Drinking during pregnancy leads to severe neurobiological consequences in the fetus and results in a variety of morphological and neurobehavioral ab-normalities including mental retardation. One of the promising neurobiological mechanisms that can explain fetal alcohol spectrum disorder as discussed in this editorial is that of the possible role of alcohol-induced alteration in the levels of bioactive endogenous cannabinoids (eCBs) that are derived from membrane lipids and eCB signaling. Further studies exploring dietary supplementation with unsaturated fatty acids that can regulate the levels of the eCBs and testing of the drugs targeted against the eCB signaling, may have significant therapeutic value.
