Activation of the Endocannabinoid System and Cognition

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2022
Recent data suggest that the cannabinoid-system is involved in stress regulation and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Low endocannabinoid signaling has been found in PTSD patients and might even present a precondition to develop PTSD after trauma. The aim of the current project is to investigate the impact of an activation of the cannabinoid system with an exogenous cannabinoid (dronabinol, i.e., delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) on fear conditioning.
