Research progress in pharmacological action and mechanism of Chinese medicine against ionizing radiation
Traditional Chinese medicine is characterized by its high efficiency,low toxicity,multiple targets and strong specificity,as well as its unique advantages in radiation protection.Based on radiation damage to cells and their pathways in the immune system,hematopoietic system and reproductive system,as well as DNA damage and antioxidant stress,this paper reviewed recent research progress in the pharmacological action and mechanism of anti-radiation in traditional Chinese medicine.Chinese medicine compounds over the past decades are reviewed and the existing problems are presented to provide a reference for the development of new radiation protection agents in Chinese medicine products.
