However, the drug delivery systems(DDSs) for TCMs remains major challenges due to the characteristics of multi-components including alkaloids, flavones, anthraquinones, glycosides,proteins, volatile oils and other types. Therefore, the novel preparations and technology of modern pharmaceutics is introduced to improve TCM therapeutic effects due to instability and low bioavailability of active ingredients. Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, the radix and rhizomes of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge(Danshen in Chinese), is a well known Chinese herbal medicine for protecting the cardiovascular system, with active ingredients mainly including lipophilic tanshinones and hydrophilic salvianolic acids.In this review, this drug is taken as an example to present challenges and strategies in progress of DDSs for TCMs. This review would also summary the characteristics of active ingredients in it including physicochemical properties and pharmacological effects. The purpose of this review is to provide inspirations and ideas for the DDSs designed from TCMs by summarizing the advances on DDSs for both singleand multi-component from Danshen.展开更多
丹参(Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma)是唇形科、鼠尾草属多年生直立草本植物,其干燥根和根茎常用于心血管疾病的治疗,为我国传统医学中的常见药材。研究结果表明,丹参提取物及主要活性成分丹酚酸、丹参酮等通过调节炎症、过...丹参(Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma)是唇形科、鼠尾草属多年生直立草本植物,其干燥根和根茎常用于心血管疾病的治疗,为我国传统医学中的常见药材。研究结果表明,丹参提取物及主要活性成分丹酚酸、丹参酮等通过调节炎症、过氧化等多靶点多信号途径改善糖脂代谢。本文梳理了近年来的研究成果,总结丹参及其活性物质调控糖脂代谢的作用与机制研究进展,以期为丹参应用于糖尿病与肥胖等代谢性疾病的防治提供参考。展开更多
