The Antigastric Cancer Activity of San Leng Powder Extract Induces Apoptosis in BalbC Bearing-SGC-7901 Mice

Abstract EN

San Leng powder extract has been used as medicinal compound for the prevention and treatment of cancers.

The antitumor activity of SLPE was determined by treating BALB/C mice harboring a human gastric cancer xenograft with SPLE for 17 days.

Mice were also treated with fluorouracil (5-Fu, 25 mg/kg) or a combination of SLPE and 5-Fu.

Our results indicate that the inhibition of tumor growth by SLPE might be due to a block in the cell cycle and the induction of apoptosis.

These results suggest that SLPE might be useful in the treatment of gastric cancer.
