Especially, atypical hyperplasia which belongs to the precancerous category, is the disease for class Ⅰ prevention of breast cancer. Therefore, advancing the clinical efficacy of MHP treatment is of critical importance. Chinese medicine (CM) and drugs show a peculiar effect in this field; the clinical or experimental researches concerning MHP treatment by CM compounds or patent drugs have been increasing gradually in recent years, but the thinking paths and methods for establishing the MHP animal model are divergent. Particularly, the disease/CM syndrome conjugated model (D/S model) has rarely been studied. For this reason, the pathogenetic mechanism, the establishment of an animal disease model, as well as the thinking paths and methods for establishing the D/S model of MHP are discussed and summarized preliminarily in this paper by the authors. This could provide a new way of thinking and method for creating the MHP model in modern medicine.展开更多
