Abstract:
The nephrotoxicity of Chinese materia medica (CMM) can’t be ignored so that it needs effective monitor and prevention. Recently, the determination of biochemistry and pathology indexes is the most important means of research with low sensitivity and trauma. In recent years, metabolomics has shown broad prospects in CMM nephrotoxicity studies due to its systematic advantages, and also achieved remarkable success. However, large clinical sample studies are still needed to realize the clinical transformation of research results. Thus, the application of metabolomics in the toxicology, assessment biomarkers and mechanism of CMM nephrotoxicity are reviewed in this paper, in order to provide references for further research.
