#AntiCancer Potential of #Cannabinoids, #Terpenes, and #Flavonoids Present in 🌱 #Cannabis

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7409346/

In #cancer, the #endocannabinoidsystem is altered in numerous types of #tumours and can relate to cancer prognosis and disease outcome. Additionally, cannabinoids display anticancer effects in several models by suppressing the proliferation, migration and/or invasion of cancer cells, as well as tumour angiogenesis.

So apple pie is a mood enhancer. That tracks.

New publication: Foliar Herbivory Suppresses Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Colonisation by Weakening Symbiosis Signalling in Root Exudates. #arbuscularmycorrhizalfungi #flavonoids #insectherbivory #biodiversity #rootexudates

A cohort study of approximately 125,000 people found that both the quantity and diversity of dietary flavonoids were independently associated with lower incidence of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, respiratory disease, neurodegenerative disease, and all-cause mortality.

"The #cannabis plant contains hundreds of chemical compounds. Among them #Cannabinoids , #flavonoids and #terpenes are the most relevant. Delta-nine #THC and #CBD are the most abundant cannabinoids and therefore the most studied.

However there are other minor cannabinoids such as delta-eight THC, #thca THCV, CBG, #cbn CBC which have been investigated to have therapeutic value (Izzo et al. 2009).

Although the compounds may have therapeutic effects taken alone (as in HEMP-derived isolate), their combined action when present together in whole plants (actually complete flower) extracts, is GREATER ( up to 6x more potent according to recent studies) than the sum of their individual effects. This enhanced and synergistic response is known as the #entourage effect.

The combined action of cannabinoids and other molecules in the plant may present clinical advantages such as lower adverse effects and greater efficacy on the therapeutical management of several conditions, such as #anxiety , #depression , #pain , #inflammation , #cancer and bacterial / fungi #infectiousdiseases

If other forms of healing, not just masking symptoms with synthetic proprietary mono-molecules, interest you, please go here for a more up-to-date text on cannabis and the entourage effect:

"We examined how these #flavonoids are #oxidized by human #P450 family 1 and 2A #enzymes. Naringenin was principally oxidized at the 3′-position to form eriodictyol by CYP1 enzymes more efficiently than by CYP2A enzymes, and the resulting eriodictyol was further oxidized to two penta-hydroxylated products. In contrast to plant P450 enzymes, these human P450s did not mediate the desaturation of naringenin and eriodictyol to give apigenin and luteolin, respectively."

In a new article, we write about how the phenomenon of #weeds acquiring #herbicide #resistance can lead to positive effects when these weeds are plants of #phytomedical importance and important in #food #technology.

#Cornflower is such a plant, and its herbicide-resistant biotypes have much higher levels of #polyphenols, #flavonoids and free radical scavenging activities - i.e. better #health-promoting properties than herbicide-sensitive biotypes
