Thujone's mechanism of action on the brain is not fully understood although
certain structural similarities between thujone and tetrahydrocannabinol (the
active component in marijuana) led to some speculation in the 1970's that both
substances have the same site of action in the brain. Doubt was cast on this
hypothesis almost immediately, and more recent scientific research has
completely discredited this idea.
