衰老机理的五脏相关性探讨

Exploration of Five-zang-organ Correlation in Traditional Chinese Medical Pathogenesis of Aging

衰老是生命发展过程中的必然规律,是一个全身性的、缓慢的、渐进的、十分复杂的退化过程。中医学历来认为五脏虚损是衰老的主要机理,而肾虚又是衰老之本,衰老与五脏关系密切,是五脏功能逐渐衰退的结果。在对历代关于五脏衰老机理的研究和现代研究成果的基础上,对五脏衰老机理及其相关性进行了探讨。

Aging is a necessary process of life,which is shown as general,slow,moderately advanced and complicated degeneration.It is indicated that deficiency of five zang-organs is contributed to the main pathogenesis of aging,and kidney deficiency is the root cause.The gradual degeneration of five zang-organs results in aging.In this article,the aging mechanism and the correlation of aging with five zang-organs are discussed on the basis of ancient Chinese medical literature and modern research results.
