CB1 receptor levels correlate with survival. CB receptor cancer cell protein levels as well as whole tissue mRNA expression levels were evaluated. (a) Inverse correlation (p = 0.0011) of high CB1 levels of pancreatic cancer cells and worse (shorter) patient survival. (b) No such correlation was observed for CB2 receptor immunostaining intensities. (c) Confirmation of the IHC quantitation results in a second, larger (n = 53) cohort of patients using quantitative RT-PCR: high CB1 receptor mRNA expression is related to shorter survival of the patients (p = 0.026). (d) CB2 receptor mRNA expression is not related to survival (p = 0.195).
