Abstract:
Gastric cancer is one of the most com-mon malignant tumors in the digestive system,which often occurs in middle-aged and elderly peo-ple.Traditional Chinese medicine recognizes gastric cancer as a kind of tumor characterized by fluid de-ficiency,heat accumulation and the growing bind-ing of toxins in the stomach.It is commonly treated with heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs in clinical practice.Hedyotis diffusa-Scutellaria barbata herb pair(HS)has the effects of clearing heat and detoxi-fying,promoting blood circulation,resolving car-buncle and expulsing boil,anti-inflammatory and analgesic,which are consistent with the etiology and pathogenesis of gastric cancer,therefore,it can be used for the treatment of gastric cancer.Modern pharmacological researches have con-firmed that HS can play an anti-gastric cancer role by inducing cell apoptosis,inhibiting cell prolifera-tion,inhibiting angiogenesis,improving immune mi-croenvironment and down-regulating telomerase activity.Herein,this review summarizes the active ingredients and related mechanism responsible for the anti-gastric cancer effect of HS,which will pro-vide the theoretical basis for its clinical use and the development of new drugs against gastric cancers.
