Endocannabinoid modulation of dopaminergic motor circuits

Endocannabinoid modulation of dopaminergic motor circuits

There is substantial evidence supporting a role for the endocannabinoid system as a modulator of the dopaminergic activity in the basal ganglia, a forebrain system that integrates cortical information to coordinate motor activity regulating signals. In fact, the administration of plant-derived, synt...
