Uses of Chinese Herb as Adjuvants in Cancer Chemotherapy
Summary
One of the main reasons for failure in cancer chemotherapy is the selective growth of drug resistant cells during treatment. Agents that are non-toxic and can reverse this drug resistance is of great value to cancer chemotherapy. Rhizoma Alismatis, its extracts and fractions or chemicals isolated from the herb, were found to be able to reverse multidrug resistance in human cancer cells. The Rhizoma Alismatis preparations significantly increase the abilities of known cancer drugs to kill drug resistant cancer cells and a pharmacological synergism can be demonstrated when Rhizoma Alismatis preparations are mixed with a number of chemical cancer drugs.
