ABSTRACT
The treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has many advantages, such as the overall regulation of multiple targets, less side effects, stable curative effect and so on. This paper mainly summarizes and analyzes the research progress of TCM treatment of UC in the experiment from two aspects: One is from the perspective of the therapeutic method and principle of Chinese medicine; The other is from the view of Chinese materia medica (CMM) compounds, single Chinese herbs and the active ingredients of CMM, which lay a foundation for the treatment of UC in interpreting the mechanism of TCM. This paper attempts to provide a better treatment for clinic on the basis of the two aspects to analyze the existing problems in the current researches and the direction of future development.
ABSTRACT
Nanotechnology has broad prospects and great potential in improving the druggability of active ingredients of Chinese materia medica (CMM). This article systematically summarized the methods and advantages of nanotechnology in improving oral absorption, changing the distribution in the body, increasing the targeting ability, and improving transdermal and mucous membrane absorption of active ingredients of CMM. In addition, we analyzed the problems in the development of improving the druggability of active ingredient of CMM by nanotechnology, put forward the strategies for solving these problems, and discussed the research prospects.
