Newest firstActivity-induced Long-Term Potentiation (LTP)-characterized as it is by rapid induction, synapse specificity, and remarkable persistence-has long been considered a primary substrate for memory encoding. There has however been considerable debate about the cellular mechanisms responsible for producing the potentiated state. It seems that much of the confusion can be traced to an implicit assumption that there is a…
Open article record in new tab ↗Recreational use of substances such as cannabis, MDMA and cocaine is thought to harm the neurotransmitter communication networks that coordinate many memory processes that support autobiographical memory (AM). Research on the impact of substance use on AM is limited and primarily focused on cannabis use or individuals with substance dependence. Additionally, previous studies mainly examined broad AM characteristic…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Preclinical and human studies suggest that adolescent cannabis use may be associated with worse cognitive outcomes than adult cannabis use. We investigated the associations between chronic cannabis use and cognitive function in adolescent and adult cannabis users and controls. We hypothesised user-status would be negatively associated with cognitive function and this relationship would be stronger in ad…
Open article record in new tab ↗The ratio of ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to cannabidiol (CBD) varies widely across cannabis strains. CBD has opposite effects to THC on a variety of cognitive functions, including acute THC-induced memory impairments. However, additional data are needed, especially under naturalistic conditions with higher potency forms of cannabis, commonly available in legal markets. The goal of this study was to collect preli…
