Natural Product Therapy Against H. pylori

As outlined in the preceding chapters, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), including single herbal medicine and compound formulas, has accumulated a wealth of effective drug resources and treatment strategies for Helicobacter pylori infection in long-term clinical practice. However, the complex composition, variations in quality, and difficulty in fully elucidating the compound mechanism of TCM pose challenges to its modernization and promotion. In this context, the isolation and identification of natural products (NPs) with clear pharmacological activities from TCM has emerged as a pivotal pathway bridging traditional experience with modern drug development.
