Research progress of metabonomics in compatibility of seven emotions of Chinese materia medica / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Seven emotions of Chinese materia medica (CMM) is the main compatibility form. Metabonomics is mainly to study the differences of metabolic spectrum, analyze the relationship between pathway and physiological and pathological changes of organisms after drug use through the analysis of metabolites, and explain the mechanism of drug action and the function relationship of compatible drugs. The author summarized the characteristics of increasing efficiency, detoxification, drug property changes and action mechanism from the compatibility forms of using a single drug, mutual reinforcement, mutual assistance, mutual restraint, mutual suppression, mutual inhibition and antagonism in the application of CMM by using metabonomics in recent years, in order to provide a basis for the objective interpretation of the compatibility of seven emotions of CMM.
