摘要
Currently, a pandemic swine influenza A virus infection causes a huge negative impact on human beings all over the world. However, the methods of treatment are not satisfactory; therefore it is urgent for us to set up new theory and practice to fight against the intractable virus. Terminalia chebula Retz, as a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, widely distributes and has multiple pharmacological effects. Evidences in laboratory and clinic practice confirm us to the potential of Terminalia chebula Retz inhibiting influenza A virus infection. We thus hypothesize that acetone extracts (tannic acids, A) of Terminalia chebula Ret may as a new alternative treat influenza A infection based on holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine principle.
