Oculomotor Effects of delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol in Humans: Implications for the Functional Neuroanatomy of the Brain Cannabinoid System
2002
Cerebral Cortex
The significance of cannabinoid signaling for human cognition and motor control is still poorly understood. Here, we have investigated acute behavioral effects of oral δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) with oculomotor paradigms in 12 healthy human subjects. Compared to baseline testing: (i) THC increased latencies of reflexive visually guided saccades, while their accuracy was not affected; (ii) latencies of memory-guided saccades were unaffected, but THC modulated accuracy of these eye movements
