Abstract/OtherAbstract:
It is very important to interpret the molecular interactions in Chinese herbal medicine. That will help to understand the molecular mechanisms of Traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) and predict the new pharmacological effects of TCM. But now we still lack a method which could integrate the concerned pieces of parsed knowledge about TCM. To solve the problem, a new method was proposed in the present article. This method is based on the entity grammar systems and explores the possibilities to study the interactions of TCM at the molecular level. Because this method is proposed to study TCM, we call it TCM grammar system for convenient. While we use Herba Ephedrae Decoction (HED) as an example to represent the application of TCM grammar systems and illustrate the feasibility of this method.
