Información sobre este audiolibro

Have you ever wondered how your body defends you from disease? It happens because we have the immune system. And what is the immune system? The immune system is a network of interconnected organs, tissues and cells whose mission is to protect us against foreign agents. In this way it is possible to have a defense response against an infectious agent. It is located in the bone marrow, thymus, tonsils, adenoids, Peyer's patches, liver, spleen and lymph nodes, among others.

How does it work? Through the detection of pathogens and its response to eliminate them. The success of maintaining health can be attributed to the ability of the immune system to recognize and consequently respond against microbes or substances in a targeted manner.

At this moment you must be wondering What is the relationship between cannabinoids and the immune system? There is a reason for the relationship. Cannabinoids have been used for many years for different purposes. Recently, discoveries have emerged about their mechanisms of action and therapeutic targets, as well as the alterations in the endocannabinoid system observed in various diseases and conditions that manifest with pain, inflammation, autoimmune pathologies and different organ-specific disorders. In addition, fundamental elements of the endocannabinoid system are found in the cells of the immune system and you will learn about this in detail in this audiobook.

A lot of questions, right? These and other questions will be solved with this audiobook that Pharmacology University brings to you.
