Immune Mechanism in Treating Vitiligo with Liver and Kidney Simultaneous Treatment Method Based on"Homology of Yi and Gui"
"Homology of Yi(Liver)and Gui(Kidney)"is closely related to the neuro-endocrine-immune network.Liver and Kid-ney reside in the Lower Jiao,Wei Qi defenses against external evil factors,warms the whole body,open and close the sweating pore,which is just like the case that modern immune function in balancing internal physiological environment and maintaining the inner ho-meostasis by protecting the body from foreign invasion.Vitiligo is rooted in the body's abnormal immune cells and immune environment(Liver and Kidney insufficiency,Essence deficiency and blood deficiency),by oxidative stress(external evil factors and emotional dis-orders)induced a series of immune reactions,the formation of an imbalance in the skin micro-environment of the tissue(Qi and blood disharmony),leading to the apoptosis of melanocytes,presenting abnormal white spots on skin.In order to"seek the root cause of the disease",the clinical evidence should start from"the simultaneous treatment of Liver and Kidney",give full play to the advantages of Chinese medicine of multi-targets,multi-pathways,through the neural-endocrine-immune network to regulate the immune cells and related cytokines,to improve the immune microenvironment,so as to achieve The immune balance of"Yin and Yang balance"is a-chieved,so that melanocytes can be restored and regenerated,and the disease can be cured.
