Gliomas are aggressive brain tumors with poor prognosis, and new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. This study used a combined in silico (computer modeling) and in vitro (laboratory cell) approach to evaluate whether compounds from Cannabis sativa—including cannabichromene (CBC) and cannabigerol (CBG)—as well as related natural molecules, may inhibit the growth of malignant glioma cells.

Cannabinol (CBN) May Support Brain Health and Memory in Aging (pub. May 2025)
As people age, changes in the brain can lead to declines in memory, learning, and overall cognitive function. In this study, researchers explored whether cannabinol (CBN)—a lesser‑known cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant—might help protect brain cells and improve cognitive performance in older animals. The research focused on how CBN affects synaptic function (the connections […]
CBD Demonstrates Neuroprotective Effects in Neurodegenerative Disease Research (pub. July 2024)
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, multiple sclerosis, and ALS involve the progressive loss of neurons, leading to declines in memory, movement, and overall brain function. These conditions are linked to factors like aging, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and abnormal protein buildup in the brain. Traditional treatments often provide only short‑term symptom relief and […]
