Discussion on "There Must Be Latent Yang Where There Are Fullness and Stasis" from Perspective of Tumor Microenvironment
"There must be latent yang where there are fullness and stasis"comes from The Essence of Synopsis of Golden Chamber and it has been widely used in the field of cancer in recent years.Most doctors believe that"fullness and stasis are the causes and latent yang is the result"in the occurrence and development of tumors,explaining the mechanism through which tumors obstruct qi movement and stagnate yang qi,leading to carcinogenic fever,cancerous pain,and adverse reactions after radiotherapy and chemo-therapy.Based on the theory of tumor microenvironment in western medicine,the author puts forward a new view of"latent yang is the cause,and fullness and stasis are the results",and believes that latent yang,as the initial factor,induces oxidative stress,activates immune escape,elevates interstitial hydraulic pressure,and releases inflammatory mediators to form tumor metabolic microenvironment,immune microenvironment,high-pressure microenvironment and inflammatory microenvironment,which ultimately leads to the occurrence of tumor.Therefore,the method of clearing obstructed latent yang and replenishing latent yang in the middle jiao can be used to reverse tumor microenvironment and inhibit tumor occurrence.
