Beyond the metabolic functions, the liver recently has been defined as an organ of immune system (IS), which have central regulatory role for innate and adaptive immunity. The liver keeps a delicate balance between hepatic screening of pathogenic antigens and immune tolerance to self-antigens. Herbal treatments with immunological effects have potential to alter this hepatic immune balance towards either therapeutic side or diseases side by inducing liver injury hepatotoxicity or initiation of autoimmune diseases. Most commonly known herbal treatments, which have therapeutic effect on liver and IS, have proven , , and/or clinical studies were summarized in this review.
除了代谢功能外，肝脏最近被定义为免疫系统（IS）的一个器官，它对先天性免疫和适应性免疫具有核心调节作用。肝脏在对病原性抗原的肝脏筛选和对自身抗原的免疫耐受之间保持着微妙的平衡。具有免疫作用的草药治疗有可能通过诱导肝损伤、肝毒性或引发自身免疫性疾病，使这种肝脏免疫平衡朝着治疗或疾病方向改变。本文综述了最常见的、对肝脏和免疫系统有治疗作用的草药治疗，这些治疗已得到证实、[此处可能有缺失内容]和/或临床研究。
