  • Cannabinoids and omega-3/6 endocannabinoids as cell death and anticancer modulators (2013)

    Currently cannabinoids are used only in cancer treatment for nausea associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy and pain associated with cancer. There have also been trials on brain tumors in patients, but more studies are needed to determine the real potential of these compounds in cancer therapy. View study

  • Cannabinoids as therapeutic agents in cancer: current status and future implications (2014)

    Cannabinoids derived from different sources can regulate different signaling pathways, modulate different types of tumor cells and the physiological system of the host. View study

  • Cannabinoids for Cancer Treatment: Progress and Promise (2008)

    Studies conducted on cannabinoids have reported that these can be useful adjuvants for conventional chemotherapeutic regimens, preventing nausea, vomiting, reducing pain and stimulating appetite. Cannabinoids are proving to be unique in terms of their specific action on cancer cells and their ability to preserve normal cells. However, more studies and tests are needed to determine with complete certainty if cannabinoids could be used to inhibit the growth of tumors in a clinical setting. View study

  • Cannabinoids induce apoptosis of pancreatic tumor cells via endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes (2006)

    Cannabinoids have the property of causing the death of pancreatic tumor cells through a CB2 receptor. This and other findings in this study can help establish the basis for a new type of therapy for pancreatic cancer. View study

  • Cannabinoids Protect Astrocytes from Ceramide-induced Apoptosis through the Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Protein Kinase B Pathway (2002)

    Cannabinoids protect astrocytes from cell death induced by ceramide, which is an important evidence of the astrofringent role of cannabinoids. View study

  • Cannabinoids selectively inhibit proliferation and induce death of cultured human glioblastoma multiforme cells (2005)

    D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC) can decrease cell proliferation and increases cell death of gliobastoma multiforme (GBM) cells in humans more rapidly and effectively than the synthetic cannabinoid agonist WIN 55,212-2. View study

  • Cannabinoids, Endocannabinoids and Cancer (2012)

    Cannabinoids are involved in the reduction of tumor growth and metastasis, and the induction of apoptosis. This study demonstrates that combination therapy that uses both traditional chemotherapeutics and molecules targeted to the endocannabinoid system can be an excellent next-generation treatment for cancer. View study

  • Cannabinoids: potential antitumoral agents (2006)

    Cannabinoids have properties with positive effects in the treatment against cancer. They inhibit nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy while stimulating appetite and reducing pain. It has also been shown to inhibit tumor growth in laboratory animals. These findings can lay the foundation for future trials aimed at evaluating the possible anti-volume activity of cannabinoids in humans. View study

  • Cannabis and Cannabinoids (PDQ�): Health Professional Version (2019)

    In this PDQ summary, information on cancer was given to health professionals showing comprehensive, peer-reviewed and evidence-based information on the use of cannabis and cannabinoids in the treatment of people with cancer. View study

  • Cannabis Extract Treatment for Terminal Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with a Philadelphia Chromosome Mutation (2013)

    Cannabinoids have antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory properties that can help fight cancer. In this case study, a treatment with scalable doses of cannabinoids was administered to a 14-year-old patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The results indicate a certain level of control of the disease according to the dose of cannabinoids administered. However, more studies, research and laboratory tests are needed. View study

  • Cannabis in Cancer Care (2015)

    Numerous studies have shown that cannabinoids (active components of Cannabis sativa) can have positive effects in cancer treatment, in addition to alleviating the effects of attrition of chemotherapies, such as pain and loss of appetite. However, its medical use is limited due to its psychoactive effects and limited bioavailability. View study

  • Cannabis use among a nationally representative cross-sectional sample of smokers and non-smokers in the Netherlands: results from the 2015 ITC Netherlands Gold Magic Survey. (2019)

    The purpose of this analysis was to examine the predictive factors of current cannabis use and characterized the methods of consumption between smokers and non-smokers in a context where cannabis use is legal. View study
