The Cannabis Papers: A citizen’s guide to cannabinoids (2011)
By Publius

Cancer research awareness and the cannabinoid system (CS) are the focus of May’s health update from Publius and The Cannabis Papers: A citizen’s guide to cannabinoids (2011). This month: PubMed CS science on preventing skin and colon carcinogenesis, phototherapy, melanomas, eicosands, gliomas, mitochondria and the omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA.

2014 ~ Skin Carcinogenesis, Inflammation and the CS
“Cancer is an environmental disease and skin cancer (melanoma and non-melanoma) is the most common of all cancers.”
The role of inflammation in skin cancer.
Maru GB, Gandhi K, Ramchandani A, Kumar G.
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2014;816:437-69. doi: 10.1007/978-3-0348-0837-8_17.
PMID: 24818733 [PubMed - in process]

2014 ~ CB2 and Antitumor (Phototherapy)
“Moreover, CB2R appears to have great potential as a phototherapeutic target for cancer treatment.”
Cannabinoid CB2 Receptor as a New Phototherapy Target for the Inhibition of Tumor Growth.
Jia N, Zhang S, Shao P, Bagia C, Janjic JM, Ding Y, Bai M.
Mol Pharm. 2014 May 8. [Epub ahead of print]
PMID: 24779700 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

2014 ~ CB2 Receptor and Melanoma
“Extravasation of leukocytes through the BBB [blood-brain barrier] is decreased by the activation of type 2 cannabinoid receptors (CB2); therefore, in the present study we sought to investigate the role of CB2 receptors in the interaction of melanoma cells with the brain endothelium. … Our data identify CB2 as a potential target in reducing the number of brain metastastes originating from melanoma.”
CB2 Receptor Activation Inhibits Melanoma Cell Transmigration through the Blood-Brain Barrier.
Haskó J, Fazakas C, Molnár J, Nyúl-Tóth A, Herman H, Hermenean A, Wilhelm I, Persidsky Y, Krizbai IA.
Int J Mol Sci. 2014 May 8;15(5):8063-74. doi: 10.3390/ijms15058063.
PMID: 24815068 [PubMed - in process] Free Article

2014 ~ Colon Carcinogenesis and CBD ~ Botanical Drug Substance
“CBD BDS [botanical drug substance] attenuates colon carcinogenesis and inhibits colorectal cancer cell proliferation via CB1 and CB2 receptor activation.”
Inhibition of colon carcinogenesis by a standardized Cannabis sativa extract with high content of cannabidiol.
Romano B, Borrelli F, Pagano E, Cascio MG, Pertwee RG, Izzo AA.
Phytomedicine. 2014 Apr 15;21(5):631-9. doi: 10.1016/j.phymed.2013.11.006. Epub 2013 Dec 25.
PMID: 24373545 [PubMed - in process]
Related citations

2014 ~ Eicosands, 2-AG and Cancer
“While THC and its derivatives have garnered notoriety in the eyes of the public, the endocannabinoid system consists of two endogenous signaling lipids, 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide), which activate cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 in the nervous system and peripheral tissues.”
Chemical approaches to therapeutically target the metabolism and signaling of the endocannabinoid 2-AG and eicosanoids.
Kohnz RA, Nomura DK.
Chem Soc Rev. 2014 Mar 28. [Epub ahead of print]
PMID: 24676249 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
Related citations

2014 ~ Antitumor (Gliomas) and the CS
“These findings indicate that cannabinoids are promising compounds for the treatment of gliomas.”
Systematic review of the literature on clinical and experimental trials on the antitumor effects of cannabinoids in gliomas.
Rocha FC, Dos Santos Júnior JG, Stefano SC, da Silveira DX.
J Neurooncol. 2014 Jan;116(1):11-24. doi: 10.1007/s11060-013-1277-1. Epub 2013 Oct 20.
PMID: 24142199 [PubMed - in process]
Related citations

2013 ~ Anticancer Effects of CBD
“Thus, VDAC1 [voltage-dependent anion channel 1] seems to serve as a novel mitochondrial target for CBD. The inhibition of VDAC1 by CBD may be responsible for the immunosuppressive and anticancer effects of CBD.”
Direct modulation of the outer mitochondrial membrane channel, voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) by cannabidiol: a novel mechanism for cannabinoid-induced cell death.
Rimmerman N, Ben-Hail D, Porat Z, Juknat A, Kozela E, Daniels MP, Connelly PS, Leishman E, Bradshaw HB, Shoshan-Barmatz V, Vogel Z.
Cell Death Dis. 2013 Dec 5;4:e949. doi: 10.1038/cddis.2013.471.
PMID: 24309936 [PubMed - in process] Free PMC Article
Related citations

2010 ~ Preventing Carcinogenesis and the CS
“Our findings suggest that the expression of cannabinoid receptors and of FAAH in some tumour cells could well influence the effectiveness of DHA and EPA or their ethanolamide derivatives as anticancer agents.”
Cannabinoid receptor-dependent and -independent anti-proliferative effects of omega-3 ethanolamides in androgen receptor-positive and -negative prostate cancer cell lines.
Brown I, Cascio MG, Wahle KW, Smoum R, Mechoulam R, Ross RA, Pertwee RG, Heys SD.
Carcinogenesis. 2010 Sep;31(9):1584-91. doi: 10.1093/carcin/bgq151. Epub 2010 Jul 25.
