RESUMO
Breast cancer is currently one of the caneers with the highest incidence.Clinically, most breast eaneer patients often die due to distant metastasis.In the complex easeade of metasta¬sis, the formation of the pre-metastasis niche ( PMN) has been considered to he cnrcial in the process of distant metastasis of tumors in recent years.Tumors at the primary site secrete tumor- derived secretory factors (TDSF) , extracellular vesicles ( EV) and so on to metastasize target organs.thereby changing the mi- croenvironment of the target organs to adapt to the subsequent distant metastasis of the tumor.Breast cancer is a kind of cancer number of studies have revealed the mechanism of the breast cancer pre-metastatic niche, showing that inhibiting the PMN can reduce breast cancer metastasis.The multi-target and multi- component features of traditional Chinese medicine have been re¬ported to effectively interfere with the formation of PMN.This review summarizes the breast cancer's mechanism of lung pre- metastatic niche formation and traditional Chinese medicine in¬tervention.
