| 1 | Effects of natural products on ischemic heart diseases and cardiovascular system显示文摘Ischemic heart diseases remain the leading cause of death in most developed countries as seen over the past quarter-century.Reducing the mortality rate and prevention of myocardial infarction (MI) are of utmost importance.The use of Western Medicinal drugs for the treatment of hypertension,congestive heart filure and post MI are widely accepted.Although some Traditional Chinese Medicines have been used in mainland,Hong Kong,Taiwan of China in clinics and other Chinese communities worldwide for centuries,our nuderstanding of the scientific principles of these herbal drugs is still far from satisfactory.As a result,their wide spread use in patients is limited throughout the world,especially in Western societies,although some of them could be used as complementary medicines in the treatment of Western medicines or tonics to maintain good health.The mechanisms of action and interaction,and the chemicals they contain remain undetermined in most Chinese traditional medicines,and need to be further elucidated using modem biological tools. | Benny KH TAN Matthew WHITEMAN | 2002 | Acta Pharmacologica Sinica2002，23，12： | 8 |
