Effects of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol on delayed match to sample performance in rats: alterations in short-term memory associated with changes in task specific firing of hippocampal cells.
Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics 1993 C J Heyser, R E Hampson, S A Deadwyler
The effects of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC) were studied during performance of a delayed match to sample (DMTS) task in rats. Correlated hippocampal cellular activity was also assessed in terms of the effects of cannabinoids on well characterized task specific changes in firing rate which occurred during various phases of a DMTS trial. Results show a surprising correlation between...
