Abstract

We studied the ontogenetic response to cannabinoid receptor ligands by measuring motor activity and analgesia in response to anandamide or delta 9-THC from day 6 of age. No response to anandamide was observed up to the age of weaning (day 23), while a nonsignificant response to delta 9-THC was observed starting between days 15 and 20. This is compatible with observations that children respond to the antiemetic effects of THC without psychotropic side effects.
