Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Approach to Reveal the Underlying Mechanisms of Isorhamnetin in the Treatment of Lymphangitis Carcinomatosis
Abstract: Objective: Lymphangitic carcinomatosis (LC) is a tumor that spreads through lung lymphatics and is most commonly seen secondary to adenocarcinoma. In the majority of cases, LC is a result of tumor cells spreading through the lymphatic system. However, approximately 20% of LC cases can be attributed to lymphangitis caused by tumors obstructing lymphatic drainage. This blockage commonly occurs near the lung hilum, where a centrally located mass can cause inflammation …
