Abstract excerpt

Beta-elemene has recently raised interest in P.R. China as a novel antitumor plant drug isolated from the Chinese medicinal herb Zedoary. To explore potentially useful combinations of beta-elemene with taxanes in the clinic, we characterized the effects of beta-elemene combined with taxanes in human lung cancer cells using a median effect analysis, micronucleus assay, apoptotic detection, and determination of...
