I need an answer NOW! Why doesn't CBD hurt normal cells?

I've been searching for an answer online, and all I can find is that CBD triggers apoptosis in cancerous cells after binding to the CB2 receptor, but doesn't trigger apoptosis in normal cells. They don't say why though. Does anyone know WHY CBD kills cancer cells, but not healthy ones? Is it perhaps because cancer cells transcribe the sequences coding for CB2 receptors more than healthy cells do, meaning they have more CB2 receptors on their surface?

If "they" knew the answer to that they would patent the technology and work for a variance in pot laws to exploit it. So why freak?

Im a pushy jerk because I ask a question in a forum and say that I need replies sooner rather than later because of a school deadline?

What gives you the right to judge someone you've never even met? And let me get this straight, you know the answer to my "queston" and don't want to tell me (which is fine), but then you actually take the time out of your day to insult a random stranger? That's sad...

welcome to the internet.. imo, it's just the way the question was worded that put some people off to it...

and i don't think that person knows the answer and simply won't tell you, they're just playing games with you imo. :D

Because normal cells have their CBD radios tuned to channel 420 and can ease off the hammer where the bears are about, good buddy. Cancer cells don't have the "Breaker, breaker" gene any more and end up getting Safe Driver certificates by the roving bears a'biting. Jmo. cn

Um the day before something is due is not the time to do the research lol.

It's not like I STARTED my research the day before it was due...this is just one last loose end that I did not have an explanation for. Asking here was a last resort measure.

I didn't expect him to actually know...I also didn't expect RUI to be THIS full of trolls (not talking about you obviously)...only got one response that was actually on topic.

RE: Budman111- "If i was you i would have found the answer via google before you even had a reply here. "


*rolls eyes* Read the thread before making sarcastic remarks...I HAVE been searching online, and did not find the answer. Asking here was a last resort. If you think it's so easy, let's see you do it!

were you not able to contact them here?


[h=3]Physicians - Contact the Society of Cannabis Clinicians[/h] A growing group of doctors have educated themselves by listening to Cannabis-using patients, keeping up with the medical and scientific literature, and attending conferences and/or meetings of the Society of Cannabis Clinicians (SCC). The SCC holds quarterly meetings to share findings and observations. The Dec. 11 SCC meeting in San Francisco featured a talk by Sean McAllister, PhD, on the potential of CBD in treating breast cancer. The next meeting will be in Los Angeles March 26, 2011.

The SCC is planning a rigorous data-collection effort to assess the safety and efficacy of CBD-rich Cannabis. To learn more, contact Stacey Kerr, MD here.

Actually, I just found my answer on that site. From what I understand, the phosphorylated alpha subunit of the G-protein coupled to the CB2 receptor either activates or stimulates (not sure which) the production of mitogen activating kinases, which upon prolonged exposure trigger apoptosis.

thanks for the help
 
It is my understanding that cannabis has that ability to stabalize your chemical/nuro response. In a way nothing else we know of does. Sort of like you have cancer because of a faulty signal to your cells. The consumption of cannabis resets the signal to it's proper cordinates.
