Research progress in application of real-time cell-based assay (RTCA) / 中国药学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for further application of RTCA in the field of TCM(traditional Chinese medicine) development, and summarize the RTCA technology application progress in recent years. METHODS: The RTCA technology principles, characteristics and applications are summarized based on referring to the related literature in recent years. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: RTCA is a kind of unmarked, non-invasive real-time cell electronic analysis method. It is recently used in drug screening, toxicology evaluation, cell growth, division and death mechanism research. The dynamic real-time analysis of cell is more and more concerned. The RTCA technology application prospects in the field of traditional Chinese medicine and compound are demonstrated. It is hoped to provide reference for further application of RTCA in the field of pharmaceutical development.
