Jingfukang induces anti-cancer activity through oxidative stress-mediated DNA damage in circulating human lung cancer cells
Abstract Background Metastasis is the main cause of lung cancer death. As a seed of metastasis, circulating tumor cells are an important target for metastasis intervention. The traditional Chinese medicine, Jinfukang, has been clinically available for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSC...
