从“玄府-隐窝”视域辨治溃疡性结肠炎肠屏障受损

Treatment of Intestinal Barrier Dysfunction in Ulcerative Colitis from the Perspective of“Xuanfu-crypt”

“玄府”作为中医藏象理论的微观结构遍布于人体各部,急性溃疡性结肠炎微观病变表现为结肠隐窝脓肿甚至结构紊乱。其湿热蕴结大肠,肠道因实而闭的发病特点与“玄府”贵开忌阖、贵通忌闭的理念契合。肠道隐窝机械屏障与黏液屏障功能与“玄府”推陈出新、气液宣通的特点有共通之处,可为肠“玄府”理论提供形态学依据。清开玄府法能够抑制湿热郁腐之物蕴结、肠道郁闭不通导致的肠“玄府闭阖”状态,推动“玄府-隐窝”学说在治疗溃疡性结肠炎早期隐窝病变的指导作用和理论支撑。

“Xuanfu”,as the microscopic structure in TCM theory of visceral manifestations,spreads all over the human body.The microscopic pathological changes of acute ulcerative colitis are manifested as cryptic abscesses or even structural disorders of the colon.Its damp heat accumulates in the large intestine,and the pathogenic characteristics of the large intestine coincides with the concept of“Xuanfu”that likes opening and avoiding closing.The functions of the mechanical barrier and mucus barrier in the intestinal crypt are very similar to the characteristics of the“Xuanfu”,which can provide morphological basis for the“Xuanfu”theory of the intestine.The method of clearing away and opening the“Xuanfu”can inhibit the“Xuanfu closed”state of the intestine caused by the accumulation of damp and heat,and promote the guiding role and theoretical support of the“Xuanfu-crypt”theory in the treatment of early crypt lesions of ulcerative colitis.
