Cannabis-based treatment induces polarity-reversing plasticity assessed by theta burst stimulation in humans

Background: In animal models, the cannabinoid system has been convincingly implicated in the regulation of long-lasting synaptic plasticity. Both long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD) phenomena can be induced in the human motor cortex by transcranial magnetic theta burst stimulation (TBS...
