Researchers continue exploring how hemp-derived cannabinoids may interact with cellular stress and inflammatory pathways involved in disease progression. In the study “Cannabigerol induces endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis and ferroptosis via the IRE1α-XBP1 axis in human pancreatic cancer cells,” scientists investigated how cannabigerol (CBG) affected human pancreatic cancer cells in laboratory models. The findings showed that […]

Cannabidiol (CBD) Shows Antitumor Activity in Melanoma Through Gene-Regulation Mechanisms (pub. Feb 2026)
Melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, largely due to its ability to grow rapidly and spread to other parts of the body. In this study, researchers investigated how cannabidiol (CBD) affects melanoma progression by examining its influence on gene-regulation pathways involved in cancer cell survival and metastasis. Using laboratory experiments […]
Cannabidiol (CBD) Enhances Anticancer Effects of Targeted Therapy in Colorectal Cancer Study (pub. Aug. 2025)
Colorectal cancer remains one of the most common and challenging cancers to treat, especially when tumors develop resistance to targeted therapies. In this study, researchers explored whether cannabidiol (CBD) could improve the effectiveness of a fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor, a type of targeted cancer therapy. Using laboratory models of colorectal cancer cells, scientists […]
