Working with a variety of THC and other Cannabinoids inhibit the activity of immune cells by the lymphocytes (T-and B-cells) and macrophages know that light, reversible immuno-suppressive effects of exercise may indicate. Mainly because the theoretical studies based on laboratory and animal imports of these effects to human health, get it, which is doubtful. According to a review by Dr. Leo Hollister
"Proof of [on immune suppression] has been made and more immunosuppression to a degree, only one in vitro studies considered supportive are contradictory. They produce severe immunosuppression drugs used to very high concentrations by were defective. Nearby experimental studies of real clinical situations as less compelling evidence has been. "
Immune suppression issue first research famous cannabophobe Dr. Gabriel Nahas, but was raised by the Reagan administration did not find anything alarming research a hurry. Rat spleen, in a recent discovery of cannabinoid receptors, where immune cells, the immune system, affecting the possibility of Cannabinoids do not apply to a kind of upgrades are available.
In fact, these effects may be useful for patients with auto-immune diseases such as multiple sclerosis has been suggested. However, a single letter of marijuana-induced immune deficiency has been no clinical or epidemiological in humans has been detected.
The one exception, the lungs, where chronic pot smoking and alveolar macrophages and other immune cells known as defense mechanisms have been shown to damage.
How much damage this is due to THC, can form all the smoke and most of them can be filtered out by waterpipes and other devices, other toxins, it is not clear to one against
For AIDS patients there are dangerous marijuana cigarette, no reason to think. On the contrary, many AIDS patients, marijuana report will help prevent deadly "wasting syndrome" by reducing appetite stimulant and nausea. Cannabinoids do not actually damage the T in patients with HIV who have run out of cells: A study has been even lower had been exposed to marijuana T-(object not AIDS patients) with T-cell counts increased number of cells found.
Epidemiological studies of marijuana cigarette or other drugs and AIDS have found a relationship between the use of development.
