Cannabidiol Decreases Metalloproteinase Activity and Normalizes Angiogenesis Factor Expression in UVB-Irradiated Keratinocytes from Psoriatic Patients

Figure 6

The level of growing factors and markers of angiogenesis (angiopoietin-2, TNFα, HGF, VEGF, PDGF, FGF) in medium of keratinocytes isolated from psoriatic patents () or healthy subjects () and cultured following UVB irradiation (60 mJ/cm2) for 24 h with or without cannabidiol (CBD, 4 μM). are presented. x statistically significant differences vs. non-treated group (control or psoriatic, respectively), ; y statistically significant differences between psoriatic and respective-treated control group, ; z statistically significant differences between UVB + CBD and only UVB-treated group, .
