Exploretion on the relationship between mitochondrial homeostasis and chronic heart failure and progress of TCM treatment based on"Qi is responsible for managing streaming"
"Qi"is a subtle substance that runs continuously in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and it is a basic factor to main-tain life activities.Mitochondria are the core organelles that supply energy to the human body and participate in various life processes.The"Qi"in traditional Chinese medicine and mitochondria are similar in source,connotation and function.The incidence of chronic heart failure has been increasing in recent years.Mitochondrial homeostasis is closely related to the occurrence and progression of chronic heart failure.This paper discusses the relationship between mitochondrial homeostasis and chronic heart failure based on the theory of"Qi is responsible for managing streaming",and the progress of TCM regulation of mitochondrial homeostasis in the treatment of chronic heart failure.It aims to provide a new perspective and theoretical support for the treatment of chronic heart failure.
