Abstract:
Kidney deficiency syndrome is a common clinical syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). With the progress of science and technology, clinical and animal experiments on kidney deficiency syndrome have made remarkable progress. Research on kidney deficiency and the nature of "kidney" involves a large number of physiological and pathological bases, which are closely related to physiological and pathological links in the human body, among which the neuroendocrine-immune network shares the closest relationship. However, there are still many challenges in modern research on kidney deficiency syndrome, such as expert consensus on clinical diagnostic criteria and evaluation indexes and optimization of animal experimental models. In the past decade, a large number of clinical and animal experiments have been reported in the literature on kidney deficiency syndrome, among which the literature focusing on the combination of disease and syndrome is predominant, and most of them focus on kidney Yang deficiency and kidney Yin deficiency, involving the exploration of many pathological mechanisms. Research on the mechanisms related to kidney deficiency syndrome encompasses multiple signaling pathways and various biochemical indicators, including the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/nuclear factor-erythroid 2-relatedfactor-2(PI3K/Akt/Nrf2) signaling pathway, the Toll-like receptor 4/myeloid differentiation factor88/nuclear factor-κB(TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB) signaling pathway, the Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway, Osteoprotectin/nuclear factor-κB receptor activator ligand/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (OPG/RANKL/RANK) signaling pathway. The biochemical indicators cover the cyclic adenosine monophosphate/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cAMP/cGMP) ratio, Na+-K+-ATPase activity, Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase activity, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), polycorticosterone (CORT), 17-OHCS, and other sex hormone indicators, providing crucial reference values for diagnosing kidney Yang deficiency or kidney Yin deficiency. The literature related to kidney deficiency syndrome over the past decade was collated and excavated, with a view to providing a reference for research on kidney deficiency syndrome.
