Journal Article
Brookes, A., Kindon, N., Scurr, D. J., Alexander, M. R., Gershkovich, P., & Bradshaw, T. (2024). Cannabidiol and fluorinated derivative anti-cancer properties against glioblastoma multiforme cell lines, and synergy with imidazotetrazine agents. BJC Reports, 2, Article 67. https://doi.org/10.1038/s44276-024-00088-0

Background
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive cancer with poor prognosis, partly due to resistance to the standard chemotherapy treatment, temozolomide (TMZ). Phytocannabinoid cannabidiol (CBD) has exhibited anti-cancer effects against G...
