Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are crucially involved in various biological processes because of their self-renewal, multi-differentiation, and immunomodulatory activities. Some ADSC's characteristics have been associated with the basic theory of Chinese medicine (CM), especially the Meridian theory. CM can improve the biological properties of ADSCs to facilitate their use in injury treatment, restore immune homeostasis, and inhibit inflammatory responses. Therefore, the combination of CM and ADSCs may be a new promising research direction in integrative medicine of China. This review summarizes the association between CM and ADSCs to assess the potential application value of their combination against various diseases.
脂肪组织来源的间充质干细胞（ADSCs）因其自我更新、多向分化和免疫调节活性而在各种生物学过程中发挥关键作用。ADSCs的一些特性与中医（CM）的基础理论相关，尤其是经络理论。中医可以改善ADSCs的生物学特性，以促进其在损伤治疗中的应用，恢复免疫稳态并抑制炎症反应。因此，中医与ADSCs的结合可能是中国中西医结合医学中一个新的有前景的研究方向。本文综述了中医与ADSCs之间的关联，以评估它们联合应用对抗各种疾病的潜在应用价值。
