Abstract:
Objective:To summarize Chinese materia medica with estrogen-activity based on data mining and analyze their characteristics.Methods:Literature was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, Chongqing VIP, CBM, PubMed and Web of Science from the establishment of the databases to June 30, 2024, and Chinese materia medica with estrogenic activity were screened. Excel 2021 and KH Coder 3.0 software were used to perform statistical and network co-occurrence analysis on the efficacy classification of Chinese materia medica, properties, tastes and meridians, screening methods for estrogen activity, and applications.Results:Totally 121 kinds of Chinese materia medica with estrogen-activity were included in total. The efficacy classifications were mostly tonic medicines, heat-clearing medicines and blood circulation promoting drugs. The properties were mainly warm and neutral, the tastes were mainly sweet and bitter, and the meridians were mainly the liver, kidney and spleen meridians. The network co-occurrence analysis of the efficacy classification, properties, tastes and tropism meridians showed that the clustering relationship of tonic medicine-neutral-sweet-liver-kidney was the most obvious. The screening methods mainly included MCF-7 cell proliferation and uterine weight gain experiments. Their applications mainly covered osteoporosis, perimenopausal syndrome, lipid metabolism disorder, and premature ovarian failure, etc.Conclusions:Chinese materia medica with estrogen-activity or their components act on estrogen target cells or organs to exert estrogen-like or antagonistic estrogenic effects. This kind of Chinese materia medica can regulate the body's qi, blood, yin and yang, the function of organs and the fullness of Tiangui, as well as the Chong meridian and Conception Vessel, thus improving human growth and development, reproduction and aging. In the future, it is suggested to explore their effective components, mechanisms, bidirectional effect and safety on the basis of guiding clinical medication with the theory of TCM, combining with modern medical research techniques and evidence-based medical research.
