AR and lung carcinoma: It is worth noting that the screening results show that calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, ononin, calycosin, astragaloside IV, astragaloside II, cycloastragenol, and formononetin may be effective components of AR in the treatment of lung cancer, and which is consistent with the previous research results of AR in the prevention and treatment of cancer (He et al., 2013; Cheng et al., 2016; Xu et al., 2018).
