Pili are responsible for virulence in the pathogenic strains of many bacteria, including E. coli, Vibrio cholerae, and many strains of Streptococcus. [27] [28] This is because the presence of pili greatly enhances bacteria's ability to bind to body tissues, which then increases replication rates and ability to interact with the host organism. [27]
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid, one of 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants, along with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and accounts for up to 40% of the plant's extract. [16] Medically, it is an anticonvulsant used to treat multiple forms of epilepsy. [4]
Canarium ovatum, the pili (Central Bikol and Filipino: pili, / ˈ p iː l iː / PEE-lee;), is a species of tropical tree belonging to the genus Canarium. It is one of approximately 600 species in the family Burseraceae .

[59] Blue Goo Industry trade name for sativa-dominant hybrid strain, a mix of Blue Dream and Agoo, a combination of which gives it ...
CBD is a 5-HT 1A receptor agonist, which is under laboratory research to determine if it has an anxiolytic effect. [145] It is often claimed that sativa strains provide a more stimulating psychoactive high while indica strains are more sedating with a body high. [146] However, this is disputed by researchers. [147]
Synthetic cannabinoids, or neocannabinoids, are a class of designer drug molecules that bind to the same receptors to which cannabinoids (THC, CBD and many others) in cannabis plants attach. [1] These novel psychoactive substances should not be confused with synthetic phytocannabinoids (obtained by chemical synthesis ) or synthetic ...
Cannabis strains is a popular name to refer to plant varieties of the monospecific genus Cannabis sativa L..They are either pure or hybrid varieties of the plant, which encompasses various sub-species C. sativa, C. indica, and C. ruderalis.
However, other research has found that CBG does inhibit FAAH and DGL, as well as monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), although it is less potent as an inhibitor of FAAH than cannabidiol (CBD). Aside from endocannabinoid-metabolizing enzymes, CBG is a weak inhibitor of the cyclooxygenase COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes (30% inhibition of each at 25,000 nM). [1]
