Is cancer of the body’s blood-forming tissues, including the bone marrow and the lymphatic system. Many types of leukemia exist. Some forms of leukemia are more common in children. Other forms of leukemia occur mostly in adults. Leukemia usually involves the white blood cells.
In 2002, Targeting CB2 cannabinoid receptors as a novel therapy to treat malignant lymphoblastic disease. Using adult mice. Background: In the current study, they demonstrated that THC and other cannabinoids can induce apoptosis in murine and human leukemia and lymphoma cell lines as well as primary ALL cells. Responded to CB2 not CB1. You can read .. Read More
In 2005, a study of THC on CB2 receptor‐induced apoptosis of human leukaemia cells. BACKGROUND: This study has investigated the effects of THC on a panel of leukemic cell lines. CB1-R and CB2-R levels and their role in cytotoxicity have also been studied, as have the effects of THC on the cell cycle, induction of .. Read More
in 2005, Investigated the role of the CB-Rs in mediating apoptosis in 3 leukemic cell lines and performed microarray and immunoblot analyses to establish further the mechanism of cell death. Background: Developed a novel flow cytometric technique of measuring the expression of functional receptors and used combinations of selective CB1-R and CB2-R antagonists and agonists to .. Read More
In 2013, a case study of a 14-year-old patient diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia demonstrated complete disease control due to cannabis. BACKGROUND: Due to three factors, namely frequency of dosing, amount given and the potency of the cannabis strains You can read the full article here => https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3901602/
In 2019, THC (Dronabinol) has preferential antileukemic activity in acute lymphoblastic and myeloid leukemia with lymphoid differentiation patterns. BACKGROUND: We have anecdotal evidence that THC may have contributed to disease control in a patient with acute undifferentiated leukemia.

In 2006, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol-Induced Apoptosis in Jurkat Leukemia T Cells Is Regulated by Translocation of Bad to Mitochondria. BACKGROUND: investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying apoptosis induced by THC, specifically addressing the role of MAPK signaling.

In 2017, Herb provided a guide to understanding cannabis and cancer treatment. Background: Here’s a guide to give an understanding of cannabis and cancer treatment. Covering the Top 10 cancers – Brain cancer, Breast cancer, Colon cancer, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Leukemia, Liver cancer, Lung cancer, Prostate cancer, Stomach cancer & Skin cancer.
