Methods: Sixty patients with diagnosis of CHD-UAP confirmed and differentiated to be Qi-deficiency and blood stasis by TCM were randomly divided into two groups and treated, on the basis of Western drug-therapy, with Tongxinluo capsule (通心络胶囊, TXL) and Huoxue Tongmai capsule (活血通脉胶囊, HXTM) respectively by way of oral taking three times a day, 3 capsules every time, with 1 month as one therapeutic course. The number of CEC in patients' blood circulation was counted before and after treatment. Besides, the number of CEC in 30 healthy persons was also counted for control. Results: The number of CEC in CHD-UAP patients was significantly higher than that in the healthy persons (P<0.01). After the patients were treated with CH, either TXL or HXTM, it significantly decreased (P<0.01)with insignificant difference between the two treated groups. Conclusion: CEC in CHD-UAP patients is severely damaged and endothelial function in disorder, Chinese herbs have protective effect on patients' CEC.展开更多

Mitophagy can selectively remove damaged organelles, and has a role in maintaining the homeostasis of myocardial cells and protecting ischemic myocardium. Significance. More and more studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine can improve ischemic damage of cardiomyocytes by regulating mitochondrial function and autophagy. Using mitochondria as the target of traditional Chinese medicine in cardiomyocytes to explore the treatment of ischemic Effective measures for heart disease have become a hotspot for related Chinese medicine workers. Based on the above background, this article outlines the main regulatory pathways of mitochondrial autophagy, and reviews related researches on traditional Chinese medicine of benefiting qi and activating blood and mitophagy in this field.展开更多
