New thoughts on antitumor functional material base and mechanism of Pinelliae Rhizoma-Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex couplet medicines / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Chinese materia medica (CMM) is the product of clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine. Due to the complexity of the chemical composition of CMM and human body, the functional material base and its mechanism researches were facing a dilemma. In this paper, the chemical composition, antitumor material base, and related mechanism of Pinellia Rhizoma and Magnolia Officinalis Cortex were summarized and analyzed, and the existing problems were found. In order to better elucidate the functional material base and mechanism of the antitumor effects of Pinellia Rhizoma-Mangnolia Officinalis Cortex couplet medicines and reveal the scientific connotation of couplet medicines compatibility, the research thoughts of metabonomics combined with network pharmacology were proposed. With a view to providing theoretical basis and suggestion for the further research on the compound compatibility law.
