Abstract: Cold atmosphere plasma (CAP) is the fourth state substance produced by gas thermal unbalanced ionization, which can influence tumor biological behavior by regulating a series of related genes and cell signaling pathways. CAP has the chemotherapeutic sensitization and is closely related to the characteristic of selective anti-tumor effect, which may become a very effective new treatment in the future

Key words: Neoplasms, Reactive oxygen species, DNA, Cold atmosphere plasma
