Abstract EN
Xihuang pill (XH) is a complementary and alternative medicine that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for the treatment of tumors since the 18th century.
XH has clinical effects on non-Hodgkin lymphoma, breast cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, and bone metastasis.
XH can also inhibit the growth of tumor cells and cancer stem cells, prevent tumor invasion and angiogenesis, and regulate the tumor microenvironment.
XH is composed of Ru Xiang (olibanum), Mo Yao (Commiphora myrrha), She Xiang (Moschus), and Niu Huang (Calculus bovis).
Some of the compounds found in these ingredients exert multiple antitumor effects and may synergize with the other ingredients.
We aimed to summarize the clinical applications and molecular mechanisms of XH and its chemical composition.
This review will provide potential new strategies and alternative perspectives for tumor treatments and basic research into complementary and alternative medicine.
