Abstract
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), psilocybin, and psilocin are being evaluated as potential therapeutics for various psychiatric illnesses.
- Pre-clinical investigations in rodent models focus on the effects of these compounds on behavior and stress responses.
- Research has explored areas such as anxiety, depression-like behavior, and substance use.
- Three knowledge gaps have been identified for further research: sex differences, oral dosing, and chronic dosing regimens.
- A thorough understanding of the in vivo pharmacology of these compounds could enhance their clinical application.
