In vitro studies
Year Author Cannabinoid type Findings
2013 Ramot et al. 21 ACEA and AM251 Keratin 6, a protein which regulates keratinocyte migration, is altered by CB1 agonists and antagonists
2015 Styrczewska et al. 22 Flax fiber extract: CBD, phytosterol, and unsaturated fatty acids Flax fiber extract showed improved wound healing, decreased inflammation, and promotion of the extracellular matrix after scratch test assays on human skin cells
2017 Bort et al. 23 JWH015 CB2 agonist reduced proinflammatory markers, increased anti‐inflammatory markers, and led to faster scratch gap closure
2018 Ruhl et al. 24 CBD Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells treated with CBD showed reduced oxidative stress
2019 Sangiovanni et al. 25 CBD and cannabis sativa extract Skin cells treated with these compounds showed decreased proinflammatory cytokine release and downregulation of genes which were overexpressed with TNF‐α treatment
2020 Ruhl et al. 26 WIN55,212‐2 and JWH133 Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells treated with a nonspecific CB receptor ligand and a CB2 agonist had varying effects on their differentiation which, in turn, may affect wound healing
2020 Correia‐Sa et al. 27 N/A Obtained skin samples from patients who underwent body contouring surgery: noted lower levels of anandamide found in patients who developed hypertrophic scars
2021 Ruhl et al. 28 anandamide, 2‐arachidonoyl‐glycerol, and JWH133 Macrophage and mesenchymal stromal cells treated with endocannabinoids showed downregulation of their inflammatory responses
2021 Correia‐Sa et al. 29 ACEA and AM251 Skin samples from abdominoplasty patients treated with CB1 agonist and antagonist noted that the agonist showed increased collagen deposition and reepithelialization
2021 Correia‐Sa et al. 29 JWH133 and AM630 Fibroblast cells treated with a CB2 agonist and antagonist showed varying effects on collagen deposition depending on whether cells were treated with TGF‐β
2021 Atalay et al. 30 CBD Keratinocytes treated with H2O2 led to a proinflammatory state which was partially attenuated by CBD
2021 Miller et al. 31 THC and CBD Multiple cells lines treated with THC and CBD showed improved cell migration and specifically porcine primary fibroblasts showed faster wound closure
2021 Antezana et al. 32 Cannabis sativa extract Collagen hydrogels loaded with silver nanoparticles and C. sativa extract provided a matrix for tissue growth and showed improved biocompatibility compared to similar products without C. sativa extract

Abbreviations: TGF, transforming growth factor; TNF, tumor necrosis factor.
