Abstract
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.
