$IMLFF announced progress today on its R&D program in the use of cannabinoids for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In June, 2015 InMed initiated its COPD program using its bioinformatics analysis tool to identify the targets and potential active compounds that can be useful for the treatment of COPD. Subsequently, with in vitro assays using human lung fibroblasts (HFL-1 cell line), InMed has demonstrated that certain cannabinoid compounds are capable of affecting a specific protein in the biochemical pathway relevant to healing and fibrosis in the lung.
