The gene expression profiles in response to 102 traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) components: a general template for research on TCMs

Abstract Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) have important therapeutic value in long-term clinical practice. However, because TCMs contain diverse ingredients and have complex effects on the human body, the molecular mechanisms of TCMs are poorly understood. In this work, we determined the gene ex...
