Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and other traditional or ethnomedicinal systems, investigating their therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms for various diseases and conditions. Studies explore the efficacy of herbal decoctions, extracts, and isolated compounds in preclinical models, often employing modern analytical techniques and molecular biology approaches. The scope includes the study of anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, neuroprotective, gastroprotective, and anti-hypoxic effects, as well as applications in metabolic diseases, wound healing, and autoimmune disorders. Research also examines the chemical composition, toxicity, and processing of traditional medicines, and their impact on gut microbiota and immune responses.
