Cannabidiol enhances the inhibitory effects of delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol on human glioblastoma cell proliferation and survival.

abstract：:Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) have emerged as important therapeutic targets. Pharmacologic inhibitors of these kinases function to inhibit cell-cycle progression and exert other important effects on the tumor and host environment. Because of their impact on the cell cycle, CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) have ...
