[9] [10] Inside the transcriptomes of glandular trichomes in the cannabis plant, the pathway for cannabinoid production takes place. [9] Beginning with the formation of 3,5,7-trioxododecaneoyl-COA by the condensation reaction between hexanoyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA , catalyzed by type III polyketide synthase (PKS), the product is then used to form ...
Female cannabis plants contain at least 113 cannabinoids, [54] including cannabidiol (CBD), thought to be the major anticonvulsant that helps people with multiple sclerosis, [55] and cannabichromene (CBC), an anti-inflammatory which may contribute to the pain-killing effect of cannabis.
Laboratory experiments have suggested that cannabis and cannabinoids have anticarcinogenic and antitumor effects, [22] including a potential effect on breast- and lung-cancer cells. [23] While cannabis may have potential for refractory cancer pain or use as an antiemetic, much of the evidence comes from outdated or small studies, or animal ...
Cannabis plants can exhibit wide variation in the quantity and type of cannabinoids they produce. The mixture of cannabinoids produced by a plant is known as the plant's cannabinoid profile. Selective breeding has been used to control the genetics of plants and modify
The analysis showed that people with cannabis use disorder were about 2.5 times more likely to develop an oral cancer; nearly five times more likely to develop oropharyngeal cancer, which is ...
Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal published by Mary Ann Liebert since 2016 and "dedicated to the scientific, medical, and psychosocial exploration of clinical cannabis, cannabinoids, and the biochemical mechanisms of endocannabinoids".
Kief (from Arabic كيف kīf, "Joy, pleasure" [1] [2]), sometimes transliterated as keef, also known as "Dust" and "Chief" a.k.a cannabis crystals among other names, refers to the pure and clean collection of loose cannabis trichomes, which are accumulated by being sifted from cannabis flowers or buds with a mesh screen or sieve.
Hashish is a cannabis concentrate product composed of compressed or purified preparations of stalked resin glands, called trichomes, from the plant. It is defined by the 1961 UN Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs (Schedule I and IV) as "the separated resin, whether crude or purified, obtained from the cannabis plant".
