Research progress in the mechanism of TCM intervention in anti-tumor effect of A549 cells in human lung adenocarcinoma / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) exerts anti-tumor effects by intervening in A549 cells of human lung adenocarcinoma, mainly including activating or inhibiting downstream target proteins of Bcl-2 and Bax, or forming RIP1/RIP3/MLKL complex bodies by affecting pathways such as PI3K/Akt, thereby inducing apoptosis in A549 cells of lung adenocarcinoma; blocks the cell growth phase, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells; inhibits invasion and metastasis of A549 cells by affecting the MMPs pathway, STAT3 pathway, and regulating epithelial mesenchymal transition related factors; suppresses or activates the expression of related proteins or affect related signaling pathways, thereby reversing the resistance of lung cancer A549/DDP cell lines to cisplatin and paclitaxel.
