Daily News @ http://RevolutionNews.US ~ Guillermo Velasco and colleagues, at Complutense University, Spain, have provided evidence that suggests that cannabinoids such as the main active component of marijuana (THC) have anticancer effects on human brain cancer cells.

In the study, THC was found to induce the death of various human brain cancer cell lines and primary cultured human brain cancer cells by a process known as autophagy.

Consistent with the in vitro data, administration of THC to mice with human tumors decreased tumor growth and induced the tumor cells to undergo autophagy. As analysis of tumors from two patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (a highly aggressive brain tumor) receiving intracranial THC administration showed signs of autophagy, the authors suggest that cannabinoid administration may provide a new approach to targeting human cancers.

Cannabinoid action induces autophagy-mediated cell death through stimulation of ER stress in human glioma cells

  • Time to legalize. This is about personal freedom. whether healthy or not, although it is much safer than all the legal vices, is not the point.

    If someone drinks bleach I'm sure they will end up in a hospital or dead. You don't make bleach illegal. If someone drinks 2 bottles of bourbon they will also end up in a hospital or dead but we wouldn't make bourbon illegal. If someone smokes 2 pounds of weed, they will eat a bucket of kfc, watch lots of tv, and fall asleep, why put them in prison?

see all

  • The government laugh @ 0:49

  • The governements care more about money than curing cancer, i was skeptical to start with , but ive seen this information under so many reliable sources now, but it never makes it to mainstream media( much of the reason for others being skeptical) .... but who do you think controls mainstream media. :)

  • Schedule 1...yeah dangerous to cancer "research"

  • @Th3h4dz But the people running the show don't give a shit about the truth. They'd probably seriously tell you that milk is a gateway drug if they could make money that way.

  • If it kills cancer cells and is illegal then I guess Smoking and alcohol must be the healthiest wonder drugs the world has ever known

  • Out of every 104 people who use marijuana 1 goes on to try cocaine and less than one goes on to try heroin, and everyone who tries marijuana has drank alcohol or smoked a cigarette so should they be illegal. The gateway hypothesis is idiotic anyway. I've drank milk and then i drank alcohol... milk is a gateway drug!!!

  • @b4df1sh44 Gee, thanks for letting me know, I hadn't noticed.

  • @jerseygrl5 the ancient greeks are dead

  • cannabis oil cures cancer FACT

  • @Ertmantis lol maby you were born with the perfect amount of brain cells but normal human beings create new brain cells (and others die) every single day :)
