Basic principles of the compatibility theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the research and development process of the natural anti-tumor drug elemene under the guidance of this principle are introduced. In addition, the traditional extraction and separation of elemene and the new biosynthesis technology developed by the author's team are described. Then, the systematic anti-tumor mechanism research of elemene are introduced, including unique multi-target and comprehensive anti-tumor mechanisms and detailed mechanisms for treating specific tumors.
Under the guidance of compatibility theory, clinical research on the combined application of elemene and different chemotherapeutic drugs has been further carried out, achieving positive results in clinical practice. Finally, the book also introduces the research and exploration of new drug delivery systems of elemene, as well as the structural modification and drug discovery progress taking elemene structure as the lead compound.
