Based on the existing literatures, we find (a) coptisine exerted potential to be an anti‐cancer, anti‐inflammatory, CAD ameliorating or anti‐bacterial drug through regulating the signalling transduction of pathways such as NF‐κB, MAPK, PI3K/Akt, NLRP3 inflammasome, RANKL/RANK and Beclin 1/Sirt1. Here, SIRT1 is linked to cancer.
