Gene technique and modern Chinese materia medica / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Chinese materia medica (CMM) has double complexity in bioactive ingredient and its mechanism. It is difficult to explain by the modern biomedicine theory So it seriously restricts the modernization of CMM The modern CMM should have the high quality standard to meet the needs of international standard It can be guaranteed by spreading the GAP for Chinese medicinal materials and GMP for standard production The mechanism depends on using the DNA microarray to set up “the gene expression difference chart”, to study on the combination of CMM and gene expression difference chart Meanwhile, we can establish a totally new method of screening modern CMM based on the gene expression difference chart, it can really make the modernization and internationalization of CMM
