The result showed 9 extracts having MDR reversal activity. They were the extracts of Fructus Lagenariae Sicerariae, Radix Glycyrrhizae, Poria, Herba Andrographitis, Radix Sophorae Tonkinensis, Caulis Mahoniae, Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Rhizoma Curcumae, Fructus Cnidii. Other 5 extracts showed cytotoxic on KBV200 cell line. $$$$展开更多

They can produce a synergistic effect when used together with surgery, radio- and chemotherapy. In analyzing the relationship between the factors that affect the distant metastasis, the authors strongly recommend that the FDM-survival rate be used, i.e. the survival rate free from distant metastasis as suggested by Hong Minghuang et al in their article. An analysis based on FDM-survival rate in a duration of three or five years with the data treated with the Kaplan-Meier and/or Life Table would be rational and convincible.展开更多
