Aberrant inhibitory processing in the somatosensory cortices of cannabis-users.

We observed impaired gating of redundant somatosensory information and altered spontaneous activity in the same cortical tissue in cannabis-users compared to non-users. These data suggest that cannabis use is associated with a decline in the brain's ability to properly filter repetitive information and impairments in cortical inhibitory processing.
