Abstract EN
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are small subpopulations of neoplastic cells within a tumor, which have self-renewal and differentiation abilities and could generate new tumors with few cells.
Researches have showed that CSCs are considered the most likely reason for cancer recurrence and metastasis.
Accumulating evidences have showed that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has significant effect on CSCs.
It could inhibit the proliferation, self-renew, and multidifferentiation of CSCs.
We aimed to summarize the theories of CSCs in TCM, the inhibitory effect, and the pathway on CSCs of TCM.
This review will provide potential new strategies and alternative perspectives for CSCs treatments and basic research into complementary and alternative medicine.
