Definitions

  • the present invention relates to herbal medicinal compositions and extracts thereof for inhibiting growth of cancer cells and, more particularly, to herbal medicinal compositions and extracts thereof for inhibiting growth of lung cancer cells.
  • Cancers have been one of ten leading causes of death in the last continuous 27 years.
  • the main cause of cancer is abnormality of cells which undergo self-division continuously to form more and more abnormal cells, i.e., cancers.
  • cancer stem cells In common tumor cells, some cancer cells have characteristics of stem cells. Although such cancer cells are in a small number, they can undergo cell division and differentiation continuously, similar to stem cells, and thus are so called “cancer stem cells”. Since cancer stem cells have extremely high drug resistance, it is difficult for chemotherapeutic agents of modern (Western) medicine to exterminate them. Accordingly, it is often heard that cancer recurrence happens in many patients post-chemotherapy. In addition, standard therapies currently known in biomedical science are still unable to kill such cancer stem cells.

  • cancer stem cells are those exhibiting characteristics of stem cells in cancer cells. Therefore, if treatment focuses on common cancer cells, cancer stem cells may still survive in a treated tumor. Owing to characteristics of stem cells, the cancer stem cells which survive still can differentiate into commons cancer cells and even form a malignant tumor, resulting in cancer recurrence after treatment. However, if treatment can focus on cancer stem cells, tumors have no survivor of cancer stem cells which can differentiate to supply the number of common cancer cells, and thus can be inhibited.
