Over the past several episodes, we have presented how cannabis affects cancer cells: they are hunted by the body's immune system, they commit suicide, they lose their blood vessels, and they are prevented from being born. Cancer cells contain cannabinoid receptors, and it is for this reason that the endocannabinoid system is an attractive target for pharmacological intervention in the treatment of cancer.
In this episode of CNT, we highlight the effects of cannabinoids on cancer migration and invasion, stopping the spread throughout the body. The only question remaining is, why aren't we using these compounds in every cancer treatment?
