Abstract:
Bufalin is one of the major active components of Chan Su,a traditional Chinese medicine.Studies at home and abroad have confirmed that bufalin can inhibit cell proliferation significantly in many human leukemia and solid cancer cell lines by inhibiting endothelial hyperplasia and angiogenesis,and inducing cell differentiation and apoptosis. With the deepening of study,it is showed that bufalin has extensive anticancer activities and it has potential clinical value with very low drug concentration.
