Insights into the Molecular Mechanisms of Bushen Huoxue Decoction in Breast Cancer
Article in Current computer-aided drug design, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimsBreast cancer (BC) is by far seen as the most common malignancy globally, with 2.261 million patients newly diagnosed, accounting for 11.7% of all cancer patients, according to the Global Cancer Statistics Report (2020). The luminal A subtype accounts for at least half of all BC diagnoses. According to TCM theory, Bushen Huoxue Decoction (BSHXD) is a prescription used for cancer treatment that may influence luminal A subtype breast cancer (LASBC).
objectivesTo analyze the clinical efficacy and underlying mechanisms of BSHXD in LASBC. MATERIALS AND
methodsNetwork pharmacology and
resultsAccording to the bioinformatics analysis, BSHXD induced several proliferation and apoptosis processes against LASBC, and the presumed targets of active components in BSHXD were mainly enriched in the HIF-1 and PI3K/AKT pathways. Flow cytometry assay and western blotting results revealed that the rate of apoptosis enhanced in a dose-dependent manner with BSHXD concentration increasing, respectively. BSHXD notably downregulated the expressions of HIF-1α, P-PI3K, PI3K, P-AKT and AKT proteins. However, adding an HIF-1α agonist restored those protein levels.
conclusionThe study proved that the mechanism of BSHXD in LASBC may be connected to suppressing proliferation by inhibiting the activity of the HIF-1α/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and promoting apoptosis via the Caspase cascade in LASBC cells.
