Background: Cannabis use has been associated with abnormalities in cerebellar mediated motor and non-motor (i.e. cognition and personality) phenomena. Since the cerebellum is a region with high cannabinoid type 1 receptor density, these impairments may reflect alterations of signaling between the cerebellum and other brain regions. Aims: We hypothesized that cerebellar-cortical resting-state...
Central cannabinoid receptors are thought to mediate neural oscillations and are localized to brain regions implicated in auditory P50 sensory gating, including the hippocampus and neocortex. The current study therefore examined if neural oscillations evoked by the paired clicks (S1, S2) are associated with impaired P50 gating reported in cannabis users. Seventeen heavy cannabis users and 16...
