Investigating the anti-lung cancer properties of Zhuang medicine Cycas revoluta Thunb. leaves targeting ion channels and transporters through a comprehensive strategy

Cycas revoluta Thunb., known for its ornamental, economic, and medicinal value, has leaves often discarded as waste. However, in ethnic regions of China, the leaves (CRL) are used in folk medicine for anti-tumor properties, particularly for regulating pathways related to cancer. Recent studies on ion channels and transporters (ICTs) highlight their therapeutic potential against cancer, making it vital to identify CRL's active constituents targeting ICTs in lung cancer.
