Progress in research of single-flavor Chinese medicine extracts in treatment of non-small cell lung cancer

Lung cancer is one of the diseases with high morbidity and mortality,and non-small cell lung cancer accounts for a large proportion of it.Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history in treating tumors.More and more researchers have paid more attention to it.At present,many studies have proved that traditional Chinese medicine extracts such as astragalus,turmeric,ginseng,coix seed,and gallbladder can inhibit tumor cell proliferation,and have synergistic effects when used in combination with radiotherapy and chemotherapy Its mechanism of action is mostly related to regulating the cell cycle,inhibiting the expression of cancer-related genes,and inducing apoptosis.It is believed that with the development of purification technology,Chinese medicine extracts will play a greater role.
