摘要
The occurrence and development of colorectal cancer involve multiple genes and pathways as a result of accumulated mutations at several sites that control growth and differentiation.Baicalin is a flavonoid extracted from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi with antioxidant,anti-inflammatory and antiviral activities.Here,we discuss its possible clinical development and perspectives for future research.We also summarize the literature on colorectal cancer as well as the anticancer effect of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi in the last 20 years.As research progresses,the therapeutic effect of baicalin in combating colorectal cancer has gradually been recognized.Its impact on colorectal cancer and anticancer mechanism,such as blocking the tumor cell cycle,inducing tumor cell apoptosis,preventing and treating tumor metastasis and anti-inflammatory activity,have become new hot topics in the study of antitumor agents in Chinese medicine.The present review surveys and summarizes studies of baicalin in anti-colorectal cancer treatment to enhance the understanding of its tumoricidal mechanism and to provide new therapeutic options for colorectal cancer.
