中药现代化是中药走出国门、为国际所认可和接受的必要基础,是振兴传统中药产业的必经之路。在中药现代化进程中存在着各种挑战:重金属超标、有效成分含量低、创新性弱、中药资源利用与保护间的矛盾等。如何应用生命科学的新理论、新技术来解决这些问题已成为当务之急。近年研究发现,内生真菌在药用植物生长发育等过程中发挥着不可替代的积极作用,对中药材生产的质和量影响较大。故该文对内生真菌在揭示药用植物道地性、中药材栽培种植、资源保护和开发利用等方面的作用进行阐述,探讨其在中药现代化中的应用前景,以期为促进中药现代化的发展提供新思路、新动力。
The modernization of traditional Chinese medicine( TCM) is a foundation of TCM to go abroad and get international recognition. It is the only way to revitalize the TCM industry. But in the process of it,we are facing various challenges: heavy metal contamination,low content of active ingredients,less innovation,the contradiction between resource utilization and protection,and so on.How to apply new technology and new theory of life science to solve these problems becomes an urgent matter. In recent years,the studies found that endophytic fungi played an irreplaceable positive role in the growth and development of herbal medicine,and had great impact on the quality of traditional Chinese medicine. Therefore this paper introduces the effect of endophytic fungi on genuine traditional Chinese medicines,cultivation of TCM,development and protection of TCM,et al,and explores its applicative prospect,providing new idea and new power for promoting the development of modernization of TCM.
