Also accessible via the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and reported on by The Marijuana Herald, the peer-reviewed study revealed that CBD enhances the stem cell properties (stemness) of human mesenchymal stem cells while postponing cellular aging (senescence). This effect appears to occur primarily through the upregulation and activation of two major anti-aging pathways: Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and autophagy.
