Don and Erigeron breviscapus (vant) Hand.-Mazz. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that scutellarin has a good anti-tumor effect. According to the literature review at home and abroad, scutellarin can inhibit the growth and metastasis of tumor cells, block the cell cycle at various stages, induce apoptosis and autophagy, interfere with tumor metabolism, reverse drug resistance of tumor cells and enhance the sensitivity of chemotherapy drugs. In this paper, the anti-tumor mechanism of scutellarin was reviewed, and the shortcomings of current studies and future research directions were analyzed, so as to provide a basis for further exploration of the anti-tumor potential of scutellarin and its further development and utilization.
