Researchers from the Universidade do Porto have identified promising anti-cancer properties in four lesser-known cannabinoids: cannabigerol (CBG), cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabinol (CBN), and cannabichromene (CBC). The study, published in Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) – Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, finds that these cannabinoids may play a potential role in treating estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast …

Study: Cannabinol (CBN) May Support Neuronal Health and Reduce Cell Stress
New research finds that cannabinol (CBN), a lesser-known compound found in marijuana, could play a protective role in treating neurodegenerative diseases by reducing cell stress and promoting neuronal survival. The study, conducted by scientists from the University of Eastern Piedmont and the University “G. d’Annunzio” Chieti-Pescara and published in the journal Antioxidants, explored the effects …
Study: Combining CBGA and Terpenes in Nanoparticle Form May Boost Pain Relief While Lowering Dose Requirements
A study published in the International Journal of Pharmaceutics suggests that combining cannabinoid and terpene nanoparticles could offer enhanced pain-relief effects while requiring lower doses. For the study, researchers encapsulated cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) and three cannabis-derived terpenes—myrcene, nerolidol, and caryophyllene—into biodegradable nanoparticles, then tested them alone and in combination for their ability to activate the …
