Figure 6. Effects of novel C. sativa extracts and cannabinoids on the levels of ACE2 in the EpiAirway-FT (A) and EpiAirway (B) tissue models upon induction of inflammation by treatment with TNFα/IFNγ. Three tissue samples were used per treatment group. Protein extracts were prepared from each sample, and equal amounts of each sample in each group were pooled together. Each bar is an average (with SD) from three technical repeat measurements. * - p<0.05, Student’s t-test.
