中医药表型组学相关术语释义与应用

中医药表型组学是研究传统中医药学的新兴学科。“表型”“表型组”和“表型组学”等作为舶来术语名词，与传统中医药学原创术语的结合衍生出中医表型、证候表型、证候表型组、证候表型组学、复方药物表型组学、方剂组学等新术语。近年来，学者们在中医药表型组学研究中对相关术语进行了概念诠释，同时也产生了一些概念错位、术语误用、观点各异等问题，故为了构建中医药表型组学研究体系，有必要对中医药表型组学相关术语释义与应用进行正本清源与深度剖析，以期在学科发展之初即建立统一的概念及术语，为中医药表型组学的学科发展奠定坚实基础。

Interpretation and Application of Terms Related to Phenomics of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Phenomics has been emerging as a new discipline for the study of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), including zhenghou patterns and fang-ji. As imported terms, "phenotype", "phenome", and "phenomics" combined with the original TCM terms have derived new terminologies such as TCM phenotype, zhenghou phenotype, zhenghou phenome, zhenghou phenomics, fu-fang pharmacophenomics, fangjiomics etc. In recent years, investigators have made conceptual interpretations of relevant terms of TCM phenomics to develop a research system of TCM phenomics. However, this also resulted in problems and confusions with the misalignment of concepts, misuse of terms, and view discrepancies. It is therefore necessary to clarify the original sources of terminologies and analyze the terminologies in-depth to establish unified concepts and terminologies at the beginning of the development of the discipline and lay a solid foundation for the development of the discipline of TCM phenomics.
