Cannabidiol modulation of immune cell function: in vitro insights and therapeutic implications for atopic dermatitis

Abstract Introduction: Cannabidiol (CBD) exhibits neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties, making it a promising candidate for addressing inflammatory skin disorders like atopic dermatitis. Aim: This study aimed to (i) investigate CBD’s impact on lymphocyte proliferation and lymphocyte viability; (ii) assess in vitro cytotoxicity U937 cells (a human promonocytic cell line) of CBD/cytotoxicity of CBD on U937 cells; (iii) provide insights into CBD immunomodulatory potential, and (iv) evaluate suitability of CBD for treating inflammatory skin conditions. Material and methods: To this
