Therefore, the investigation of the metabolism of compound Chinese drugs by modern analytical techniques, such as LC/MSn, may play important roles as follows in the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine: to study the characteristics of in vivo metabolism and explore the functional mechanisms and compatibility principles of compound Chinese drugs;
With the development of modern comminution technology and equipment, the comminution of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has become a very important content of modernization of TCM.
Objective To provide thoughts and methods for the study on the material foundation of the medicinal effectiveness of the compound prescriptions of the Chinese medicine so as to promote the modernization of TCM.
Gene and protein expression can be taken as the indexes,so we try to reveal the compatibility rule of complex prescription on molecular biology level and try to accelerate the TCM modernization.
One of strategic target of TCM modernization is to provide TCM with the standard criterion accepted by the international, only with the modern evaluation system of TCM quality has been constitute and consummate.
It will play an important role in TCM modernization to establish DNA microarray technology platform which aims to explore the molecular mechanism for TCM.
