Many nongenotoxic hepatocarcinogens can induce cell proliferation, and inhibit apoptosis and gap-junctional-intercellular communication (GJIC). GJIC, the movement of small molecules (less than 1.2 kD) through membrane channels, is important in regulating cellular homeostasis and differentiation. The
Many tumor promoters suppress the immune system; however, the direct effect of immunosuppressants on the tumorigenic pathways of nonimmune cells in solid tissue has not been well documented. Cannabinoids were chosen to explore this question further. Cannabinoids are immune modulators that affect spe
