RESUMEN
Jia-mo Chen who was a Xinan medical scientist put forward the theory of “Salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian” recorded in “Enlightening Primer of Materia Medica”, which has great significance for the clinical application of Chinese medicine processing excipients. In recent years, scholars have done a lot of research work on the chemical composition and pharmacological effect changes of Chinese medicines and related prescriptions before and after salt-processing, and preliminarily explained the scientific connotation of the processing theory of “salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian” of Chinese materia medica (CMM). According to the literatures of recent years studies, the research progress on processing theory of “Salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian” of CMM was summarized and concluded from the perspective of chemical composition and pharmacological effects changes, and the problems of the present study were analyzed, which put forward new research idea for the theory of “salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian” combined with modern research methods.
RESUMEN
"Salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian" is one of the basic theories to guide the processing of Chinese materia medica (CMM). In recent years, scholars have done a lot of research work on salt-processing, which has effectively promoted the scientific explanation of the theory. In this paper, recent researches of salt-processed CMM from the perspective of "salt-processing enhancing drug into kidney meridian" were reviewed. Based on the analysis of the existing problems, this review provides a new idea for the mechanism study of salt-processing.
