TCM History
 The history of TCM can be summarized by a list of
important doctors and books.
 Unknown, Huángdì nèijīng (黃帝內經/黄帝内经) (Yellow
Emperor's Inner Canon) - Sùwèn (素问/素問) and
Língshū (灵枢/靈樞). The earliest classic of TCM passed
on to the present.
 Warring States Period (5th century BC to 221 BC): Silk
manuscripts recording channels and collaterals, Zubi
shiyi mai jiu jing (足臂十一脉灸经/足臂十一脈灸經)
(Moxibustion Classic of the Eleven Channels of Legs and
Arms), and Yinyang shiyi mai jiu jing (阴阳十一脉灸经/陰
陽十一脈灸經) (Moxibustion Classic on the Eleven Yin
and Yang Channels). The latter was part of a cache of
texts found in Mawangdui in the 1970s.
TCM History
 Han Dynasty (206 BC–AD 220) to Three Kingdoms
Period (220 - 280 AD):
 Zhenjiu zhenzhong jing (针灸枕中经/鍼灸枕中經) (Classic of
Moxibustion and Acupuncture Preserved in a Pillow) by Huà Tuó
(华佗/華佗).
 Shanghan zabing lun (伤寒杂病论/傷寒雜病論), which has since
been split into two texts: the Shānghán lùn (伤寒论/傷寒論)
("Treatise on Cold Damage [Disorders]" - focusing on febrile
conditions attributed to "Cold") and the Jingui yaolue (金匱要略)
("Essentials of the Golden Cabinet" - focusing on "miscellaneous
illnesses") by Zhāng Zhòngjǐng (张仲景/張仲景).
 Jìn Dynasty (265-420): Zhēnjiǔ jiǎyǐ jīng (针灸甲乙经/鍼
灸甲乙經) (Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and
Moxibustion) by Huángfǔ Mì (皇甫谧/皇甫謐).
TCM History
 Tang Dynasty (618–907)
 Beiji qianjin yaofang (备急千金要方/備急千金要方) (Emergency
Formulas Worth a Thousand in Gold) and Qianjin yifang (千金翼
方) (Supplement to the Formulas Worth a Thousand in Gold) by
Sūn Sīmiǎo (孙思邈/孫思邈).
 Waitai miyao (外台秘要/外臺秘要) (Arcane Essentials from the
Imperial Library) by Wang Tao (王焘/王燾).
 Song Dynasty (960 – 1279):
 Tóngrén shūxué zhēnjiǔ tújīng (铜人腧穴针灸图经/銅人腧穴鍼灸
圖經) (Illustrated Manual of the Practice of Acupuncture and
Moxibustion at (the Transmission) (and other) Acu-points, for use
with the Bronze Figure) by Wáng Wéiyī (王惟一).
 Yuan Dynasty (1271 to 1368): Shísì jīng fāhuī (十四经发
挥/十四經發揮) (Exposition of the Fourteen Channels) by
Huá Shòu (滑寿/滑壽).
TCM History
 Ming Dynasty (1368 to 1644): golden age of acupuncture
and moxibustion. Many famous doctors and books. To
name only a few:
 Zhēnjiǔ dàquan (针灸大全/鍼灸大全) (A Complete Collection of
Acupuncture and Moxibustion) by Xu Feng (徐凤/徐鳳).
 Zhēnjiǔ jùyīng fāhuī (针灸聚英发挥/鍼灸聚英發揮) (An Exemplary
Collection of Acupuncture and Moxibustion and their Essentials)
by Gāo Wǔ (高武).
 Zhēnjiǔ dàchéng (针灸大成/鍼灸大成) (Compendium of
Acupuncture and Moxibustion) by Yáng Jìzhōu (杨继洲/楊繼洲),
completed in 1601.
 Běncǎo gāngmù (本草纲目/本草綱目) (Compendium of Materia
Medica) by Lǐ Shízhēn (李时珍/李時珍), the most complete and
comprehensive pre-modern herbal book (completed in 1578).
 Wenyi lun (温疫论/溫疫論), by Wu Youxing 吴有性 (1642).
TCM History
 Qing Dynasty (1644-1912):
 Yizong jinjian (医宗金鉴/醫宗金鑒) (Golden Mirror of the Medical
Tradition) compiled by Wu Qian (吴谦/吴謙) under imperial
commission.
 Zhenjiu fengyuan (针灸逢源/鍼灸逢源) (The Source of
Acupuncture and Moxibustion) by Li Xuechuan (李学川/李學川).
 Wenre lun (温热论/溫熱論), by Ye Tianshi (叶天士/業天士).
 Wenbing tiaobian (温病条辨/溫病條辨) (Systematized
Identification of Warm-factor disorders) compiled by Wu Jutong (
吴鞠通) in 1798.

Pharmacological Effects
Possibly Linked to Interior Warming
Vasodilation and its Relation to Interior Warming
• Common mode of action
(except Hua Jiao)
– Inhibit Ca2+ influx
• Other Modes of actions
– Increase NO
– Increase cGMP
– Activate TRPV1
– Alpha-adrenoceptor
blockade
1Rang
• Why vasodiation produces
warming effect or
sensation?
– Blushing
• A result of vasodilation
• Warm feeling
– Cold extremeties due to loss
of beta-adrenoceptor
mediated vasodilation
– Increased lumen size of
blood vessels
• More blood brought to
vasodilated area
•  Warm sensation

Churchill Livingstone, 2003
Pharmacological Effects
Possibly Linked to Interior Warming
TRPV1 Agonism and its Relation to Interior Warming
• Transient receptor potential ion channel of vanilloid type 1
– Highly expressed in a subset of primary sensory neurons of the
trigeminal, vagal and dorsal root ganglia
– Non-neuronal cells1
• Activation leads to many effects
– Burning sensation
– Vasodilation
• via release of Calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP)
– Inhibit gastric leisions
– Thermogenesis
• Piperine, 6-gingerol, 10-gingerol, 6-shogaol
Associated with
vasoconstriction
1Geppetti
P, Materazzi S, Nicoletti P. Eur J Pharmacol 2006;533(1-3):207-14.
TRPV1 Agonism and its Relation to Interior Warming
•
Dual actions leading to the
same warming effect or
sensation?
1. TRPV1 causes both
vasodilation and
vasoconstriction under
different conditions1
– Directly induce vascular
smooth muscle
contraction, linked to
thermogenesis that is
abolished by
vasodilators
– But release
neuropeptides e.g.
CGRP that causes
vasodilation

– Not truly ‘therapeutic’
