ABSTRACT
The universality of anti-inflammation in moxibustion is analyzed in this article from its adaptation disease and ancient documentary records. The specificity of anti-inflammation in moxibustion is pointed out from its disease series research and scientific fact that moxibustion could be used for heat syndrome. The integrity of anti-inflammation in moxibustion is explained by series research result that four basic circulations of moxibustion for chronic inflammation are all effective. The two-way characteristic of moxibustion anti-inflammation is explained from the fact that moxibustion has regulation function both for excess and insufficiency of inflammation to demonstrate the effect mechanism of warming-dredging in moxibustion lies in its anti-inflammation. At last, the relevant possible mechanism between moxibustion anti-inflammation and transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) is proposed. The effect mechanism of warming-dredging in moxibustion lies in anti-inflammation, which could provide theoretic basis for prevention and treatment of moxibustion for serious diseases.
