摘要

Inflammation is a common disease involved in the pathogenesis, complications, and sequelae of a large number of related diseases, and therefore considerable research has been directed toward developing anti-i nflammatory drugs for the prevention and treatment of these diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used to treat inflammatory and related diseases since ancient times. According to the re-view of abundant modern scientific researches, it is suggested that TCM exhibit anti-i nflammatory effects at different levels, and via multiple pathways with various targets, and recently a series of in vitro and in vivo anti-i nflammatory models have been developed for anti-i nflammation research in TCM. Currently, the reported classic mechanisms of TCM and experimental models of its anti-i nflammatory effects pro-vide reference points and guidance for further research and development of TCM. Importantly, the research clearly confirms that TCM is now and will continue to be an effective form of treatment for many types of inflammation and inflammation- related diseases.
