Research progress on traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases based on TRPV1 signaling pathway

Transient receptor potential vanillic acid receptor 1(TRPV1)is a member of the(TRP)ion channel family of transient receptor potentials.Studies have shown that TRPV1 plays an important regulatory role in gastrointestinal diseases,especially in inflammatory pain,visceral pain and cancer pain-mediated diseases.In recent years,the active components of traditional Chinese medicine have been widely studied as drugs for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases,in which there is no lack of traditional Chinese medicine to explore the regulation of TRPV1 channels in order to be used as a new therapeutic target in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases.This article reviews the research progress on the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine and gastrointestinal diseases which regulate TRPV1 signal pathway as a therapeutic target.
