RESUMO
In traditional Chinese medicine， it is believed that the spleen is the foundation of acquired nature and the source of Qi and blood. All life activities of a person since birth depend on the water and grain essence transported by spleen and stomach. The liver helps the spleen to strengthen the movement， the liver and spleen cooperate with each other. The liver and the spleen are invigorated， so that the Qi and blood are sufficient. The external energy can nourish the limbs， muscles and fur. The Qi and blood can be supplied to the internal organs， meridians and bones， and the body can be nourished both inside and outside to strengthen the acquired foundation. Emotional dissatisfaction can lead to stagnation of liver Qi， loss of spleen Qi， failure to dredge Qi， and deficiency of spleen Qi， forming the syndrome of liver depression and spleen deficiency. Its clinical manifestations include the symptoms of liver Qi stagnation such as depression， stamina， and chest fullness， as well as symptoms of spleen deficiency such as anorexia， abdominal distension， loose stools. Xiaoyaowan is an effective classic prescription for the treatment of liver stagnation and spleen deficiency syndrome， which is based on the dosage form of Xiaoyaosan in Prescriptions of the Bureau of Taiping People's Welfare Pharmacy. It has the effect of relieving depression， nourishing blood and invigorating spleen. In modern research， it has been found that Xiaoyaowan has good curative effect in the treatment of endocrine diseases， liver diseases， immune diseases， and neurological diseases， etc. It was praised by the famous medical scientist YE Tian-shi in the Qing Dynasty as "the holy medicine for women"， with a wide range of significant curative effects gynecology. Progress has been also made in pharmacological research. In this article， we have searched and consulted the relevant literature reports of Xiaoyaowan in recent years， summarized the key directions of the pharmacological research literature， and proposed deficiencies to provide relevant basis for the in-depth study of Xiaoyao pill in the future.
RESUMO
Mineral Chinese medicine is an indispensable part in traditional Chinese medicine, with a history of several thousand years in research and utilization of medicinal mineral resources. It is a summary of the medical experience accumulated in numerous trials,observations and practices during the survival process of people of all nationalities, showing distinctive characteristics. At present,the scope of mineral medicine treatment involves internal medicine,surgery,gynecology,pediatrics,facial features and so on. The mineral Chinese medicine has broad clinical application in many kinds of hemorrhagic diseases,with rich experience in medication and remarkable curative effects. However, there are few papers in modern research, mainly concentrated in the 1970s-1990s. In this paper, the pharmacology and clinical application of mineral Chinese medicine with hemostatic effects in the last 40 years were reviewed, aiming to provide references for its clinical rational use in bleeding diseases,further development and utilization of mineral Chinese medicine resources of traditional Chinese medicine,in-depth study of material basis and action mechanism,and further exploration of mineral Chinese medicine resources. According to the statistics of the major Chinese medicine works,27 kinds of mineral drugs have hemostatic effects. The researches on hemostatic pharmacology of mineral Chinese medicine mainly focus on the analysis of mineral medicine elements and the effect of related elements on hemostasis,as well as the pharmacological experimental study on hemostasis, but the research is not deep-going and comprehensive. The clinical application of mineral Chinese medicine for hemostasis mainly includes digestive tract hemorrhage,hemoptysis,epistaxis,gingival hemorrhage,cerebral hemorrhage,post-abortion hemorrhage,metrorrhagia,uterine bleeding,hematochezia and external hemostasis.
RESUMO
Yangjing Zhongyu Tang, from FU Qing-zhu Nvke, is a famous classical formula of clinical value for treating blood deficiency syndrome of female infertility in the Qing dynasty. The prescription seems plain, but it is rigorous and effective with high research value. In this paper, the ancient books and modern documents of Yangjing Zhongyu Tang were analyzed from the aspects of traceability of Chinese materia medica in the formula, pharmacological research, clinical research, etc. It could be concluded that the pharmacological studies of this formula were mostly to investigate the mechanism and efficacy of its treatment for infertility, but there was a lack of comprehensive interpretation of the structure, function and principle of pharmacodynamic substance in this formula. In this paper, combined with the contents of supramolecular imprinting template and network pharmacology, the new direction of pharmacological research of Chinese medicine compound was put forward. Quality control of Yangjing Zhongyu Tang mostly based on small molecule compounds, so it was suggested to break the inherent thinking, and increase the detection of macromolecule compounds and supramolecular of Chinese materia medica. The druggability of this formula involved in the preliminary study of decoctions, plasters and granules. Considering the quality stability of Chinese materia medica in the formula and the scientificity of druggability of this formula, the compatibility principle of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and modern supramolecular chemistry theory could be combined to study the change law of druggability of TCM before and after compatibility, so as to provide new reference materials for the follow-up clinical application and development of Yangjing Zhongyu Tang.

Thus, Xiangsha-Liujunzi decoction could be used for gastrointestinal diseases and tumor postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by radiation and chemotherapy.
RESUMO
This study was aimed to carry the post-marketing revaluation on classical Tibetan medicine of the Seven-ty-flavor Pearl Pill, which will help improve its scientificity, safety and standardization in order to promote its indus- trial development. Literature mining method was used to summarize research information of the Seventy-flavor Pearl Pill, such as the clinical pharmacy sorting. Meanwhile, the successful example of Padma-28 was referred in the analysis of deficiencies in the indications of Seventy-flavor Pearl Pill. The results showed the present situation of clinical combination therapy, pharmacology and toxicology study of Seventy-flavor Pearl Pill. It was concluded that the building of new model of post-marketing revaluation on the Seventy-flavor Pearl Pill can provide re-evaluation scientific basis for Tibetan medicine on its clinical effectiveness and safety.
RESUMO
This study was aimed to investigate the antitussive, expectorant and antiasthmatic effects of aqueous extracts and the chemical split fractions ofMori Cortex. Cough mice models induced by ammonia water were used to observe the effect on arresting cough. The phenol red expectoration method in mice was used to observe the effect on expelling phlegm. Histamine and acetylcholine mixture induced asthma model was used to observe the effect on relieving asthma. Isolated trachea model was used to observe the effect on relieving spasm. Compared with the control group, the low, medium and high doses of aqueous extracts ofM. Cortex can obviously decrease the frequency of cough, increase phenol red output of trachea in mice, prolong the latent period of asthma in guinea pigs, and increase the antispasmodic rate. The medium dose had the best effect. The comparison between different chemical split fractions ofM. Cortex and the control group showed that the 30% and 50% ethanol fraction ofM. Cortex can obviously decrease the frequency of cough and prolong the latent period of cough induced by ammonia water in mice, increase phenol red output of trachea in mice (P<0.05 orP<0.01); and 30% ethanol fraction and fatty oil fraction can prolong the latent period of asthma in guinea pigs (P< 0.05 orP<0.01). In addition, 30% ethanol fraction can obviously reduce the degree of tracheal contraction. It had certain effect of relieving spasm. It was concluded that aqueous extracts ofM. Cortex had better effects on relieving cough, expectorant and antiasthma. The effective part was the 30% ethanol fraction, which was the dose equivalent of 1/3 of the medium dose. It had significant effect on relieving cough, expectorant and antiasthma. The effect was equivalent to the medium dose of aqueous extracts of M. Cortex.

Merely having complete sequences of genomes is not sufficient to elucidate biological function. Proteomics is complementary to genomics because it focuses on the large scared gene products, which are the active agents in cells. As almost all the drugs are directed against proteins, proteomics have been widely used in pharmacological research.Proteomics profiling in drug target identification, toxicological and drug resistances research was reviewed.
RESUMO
Transgenic animals are those in which recombinant DNA technology is used to remove a gene or a specific part of DNA with exogenous DNA, which is hereditable and can be expressed stably. Transgenic rodent technology, first demonstrated by Gordon in 1980,opened the door to the next step in biotechnology and gene regulation, which has been used to reproduce or mimic a part of a human disease in a complex cellular environment by creating in vivo models with germ line transmission of the introduced genetic regulatory elements. Animal models for drug discovery are developing increasingly, which is promoting the research and development new drugs greatly. The use and development of transgenic animals in pharmacological research is reviewed in this article.
