The Interplay between cancer biology and the endocannabinoid system - significance for cancer risk, prognosis and response to treatment

The various components of the endocannabinoid system (ECS), such as the cannabinoid receptors (CBRs), cannabinoid ligands, and the signalling network behind it, are implicated in several tumour-related states, both as favourable and unfavourable factors. This review analyses the ECS's complex i...
