Brain tumours and Endocannabinoids

Massive increased levels of endocannabinoids were found in the tissue of two brain tumours (glioblastoma and meningioma) compared with human healthy brain tissue. The researchers concluded that the enhanced level of endocannabinoids "detected in the two types of tumour tissue may possibly act as endogenous anti-tumour mediators by stimulation of both cannabinoid and non-cannabinoid receptor-mediated mechanisms."
