Principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prescriptions usually contain several herbs called a
“fufang”. This formulation is based on the principle of “Jun-Chen-Zuo-Shi(君-臣-佐-使)”.

Jun(emperor) treats the main cause of the disease.

Chen(minister) enhances the actions of “Jun” or treats accompanying symptoms.
Zuo(adjuvant) reduces or eliminates possible toxic effects of the Jun or Chen herbs but also
treats accompanying symptoms.
Shi(courier) helps to deliver or guide the other herbs to the target organs.

Background
The advantage of Multi-target
The shortage of single-target drugs
At the beginning, the antibacterial effect of Penicillinis very good. Thousands of soldiers were saved by
Penicillinis during the World War II.

Dr. Fleming's discovery of penicillin occurred in 1928.

In 1940, Howward Walter Florey from Australia and Boris Ernst Chain from England succeeded in separating the pure
products.
Penicillin was used to treat infections in 1943.
The three men won the Nobel Prize.

Background
The advantage of Multi-target

Why is the antibacterial effect not as good as it used to be?

A single compound acts on a single target.
Bacterias have evolved to become resistant, they can produce an enzyme which can
hydrolyzes the active structures of penicillin.

Background
The advantage of Multi-target

Radix isatidis——A representative TCM

It has not been reported to be resistant to antiviral or antimicrobial
action for hundreds of years.
The reason is the multimolecular interaction in Chinese medicine.
Multi-targets attack and inhibit on bacteria.
So it is difficult for bacteria or viruses to establish resistance to multi-
molecule, multi-target drugs.
