Systematic Review of Basic Research on Alzheimer’s Disease with Shen Zhi Ling Oral Liquid

Abstract EN

Objective.

The present report systematically reviewed the basic research of Shen Zhi Ling oral liquid (Tiao Xin preparation) treatment on Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Methods.

CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP were searched, and the literature was selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Data were extracted, and descriptive analysis was used.

Results.

Twenty-four articles were included, all of which were published as “Tiao Xin preparation.” There were seven types of AD models involved.

The mechanism of action of Shen Zhi Ling oral liquid in the treatment of AD primarily included suppression of Aβ deposition and tau hyperphosphorylation, regulation of multiple neurotransmitters, improvement in energy metabolism, and promotion of the expression of autophagy-related and learning-memory-associated proteins.

Conclusions.

AD is a complex disease caused by multiple factors.

Shen Zhi Ling oral liquid exhibited multiple and multitarget effects and great potential for treating AD.

The continuous development of molecular biology and related disciplines will further elucidate the mechanism of Shen Zhi Ling oral liquid intervention in AD.
