Abstract:
Myocardial fibrosis is the pathological basis of hypertensive heart disease, which is the key to control cardiovascular complications. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the advantage of targeting many components of a system and providing more integrated regulation than modern medicine. While, modern medicine tends to target a single pathological link. This study was aimed to investigate effects and mechanisms in the treatment of myocardial fibrosis in hypertension with TCM from a different perspective, which provided references for clinical treatment.
