Integrating Network Pharmacology and Traditional Chinese Medicine for Effective Inflammation Treatment

Inflammation is a common condition in the human body that significantly impairs immune function. Network pharmacology, with its strengths in bioinformatics and biomedical fields, offers a powerful tool for exploring the complex interactions involved in inflammation. By using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as a carrier, network pharmacology helps elucidate specific molecular mechanisms and biological processes, and identifies effective TCM components for targeting and treating inflammation. This review summarizes recent advancements in the application of network pharmacology for the treatment of inflammation using TCM. It highlights the progress and mechanisms by which TCM addresses inflammation, providing valuable insights for future research in this area.
