class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In March 2024, 23-year-old Tu Bo-yu (\u6d82\u535a\u4fde) was admitted to Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital in eastern Taiwan with a diagnosis of adrenomyeloneuropathy\u2014a form of adrenoleukodystrophy, a rare genetic disorder that poses significant treatment challenges. His symptoms included bladder and bowel dysfunction, as well as paralysis below the chest. Lorenzo\u2019s oil has traditionally been used to manage symptoms, but recent advancements in gene therapy are now being explored. However, such treatment remains prohibitively expensive, and its efficacy is still under evaluation.<\/p><p>Adrenoleukodystrophy is caused by mutations in the <em>ABCD1<\/em> gene, leading to the build-up of very long chain fatty acids. Dr. Lin Shinn-zong (\u6797\u6b23\u69ae), superintendent of Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital and a specialist in neuroscience and neurosurgery, explained, \u201cThese fatty acids disrupt the myelin sheath\u2019s role in conducting nerve signals, preventing messages from the brain from reaching the hands and feet. Patients can deteriorate rapidly and may not survive for long.\u201d<\/p><p>Faced with this complex neurodegenerative disease, Dr. Lin has been actively seeking solutions. \u201cMaster Cheng Yen often reminds us that all forms of life in the world are interconnected and imbued with a life force,\u201d he said. \u201cFor every illness, nature offers a remedy. Since Western medicine has its limitations, we have enlisted the help of traditional Chinese herbal medicine while using molecular biology to explore methods that may help break down these fatty acids. Professor Chang Jan-gowth [\u5f35\u5efa\u570b], an expert in next-generation whole-genome analysis, has been providing invaluable insights.\u201d<\/p><p>In mid-February 2024, Taiwan\u2019s Ministry of Health and Welfare announced plans to include next-generation genome sequencing testing in National Health Insurance coverage. Following this announcement, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital established a molecular tumor committee on February 21. The committee combines multiple specialties from both Western and traditional Chinese medicine to provide more precise treatments for patients with cancer and rare diseases. The committee is chaired by Dr. Lin, with Professor Chang serving as vice chair. Professor Chang specializes in genetic diagnostics and in applying traditional Chinese medicine to cancer treatment.<\/p><p>Dr. Lin noted that the precision medicine team at the hospital employs gene testing to clearly identify the causes of diseases and find effective herbal remedies. This approach has produced significant results over the past six months. For adrenoleukodystrophy, Professor Chang has developed a strategy to identify compensatory genes similar to <em>ABCD1<\/em>. Dr. Lin explained, \u201cWe are targeting the normal <em>ABCD2<\/em> and <em>ABCD3<\/em> genes for therapy, after discovering Chinese herbs that can act on these two genes. Vice Superintendent Ho Tsung-jung [\u4f55\u5b97\u878d] has prescribed these herbal remedies to patients, and the effects have been impressive.\u201d Through their collective efforts, the team is overcoming traditional treatment bottlenecks through endogenous stem cell therapy, acupuncture, and herbal treatments.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-63979360 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"63979360\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2bce16aa\" data-id=\"2bce16aa\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2a7e235b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2a7e235b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Precision medicine<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-62f36e87 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"62f36e87\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Precision medicine employs advanced technologies, such as genetic sequencing, to develop treatment plans tailored to each patient\u2019s genetic profile, thereby improving cure rates and reducing side effects. Dr. Lin pointed out that this approach has evolved into personalized treatment. \u201cBy analyzing a patient\u2019s DNA and RNA, we can identify genetic deficiencies and apply the appropriate Western medicines,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat sets our team at Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital apart is that we\u2019re the only ones in the world using DNA and RNA analysis to pinpoint precise traditional herbal medicines for specific conditions.\u201d<\/p><p>Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital\u2019s commitment to researching traditional Chinese herbal medicine dates back to 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. As the outbreak unfolded, Master Cheng Yen pointed out that, in ancient times, when Western medicine was not widely available, people relied on traditional herbal remedies to combat epidemics. She expressed hope that Tzu Chi healthcare professionals would study herbal treatments for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.<\/p><p>Under Dr. Lin\u2019s leadership, the hospital developed Jing Si Herbal Tea, designed to deliver antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and anti-thrombotic benefits, thereby improving treatment outcomes for patients with mild to moderate COVID-19. The herbal tea can also serve as a daily health supplement. Building on this foundation of research into traditional herbal remedies, the team more recently extracted a small molecule called z-BP from the traditional Chinese herb <em>Angelica sinensis<\/em> to develop a new drug for malignant brain tumors. Clinical trials conducted on 20 brain cancer patients showed significant tumor reduction just one month after Angelica patches were implanted in their brain.<\/p><p>Reflecting on the public\u2019s fear during the pandemic and the high costs of Western treatments for cancer, degenerative diseases, and rare conditions, Dr. Lin expressed great hope for the integrated precision medicine efforts at the hospital: \u201cBy drawing on Professor Chang\u2019s expertise, we believe traditional Chinese medicine can also play a role in combating cancer and aging, offering patients renewed hope in their healing journey.\u201d<\/p><p>In the realm of innovative treatments, Dr. Lin Shinn-rong stands out as the first in Taiwan to successfully transplant embryonic neural stem cells into Parkinson\u2019s disease patients. He is also a global pioneer in using autologous peripheral blood stem cells for stroke treatment: \u201cIn the case of Parkinson\u2019s disease, each person\u2019s DNA and RNA variations are unique, necessitating tailored herbal treatments.\u201d<\/p><p>While Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine approach the diagnosis and treatment of diseases differently, integrating them can leverage advanced technologies\u2014such as genetic sequencing\u2014to analyze the characteristics of a particular disease and subsequently identify suitable herbal remedies. This integration is especially critical for rare genetic diseases, where small patient populations and limited treatment options pose significant challenges. Meanwhile, cancer presents a complex condition with its hundreds of genetic mutations, calling for a multifaceted approach.<\/p><p>Ho Tsung-jung, vice superintendent of Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital and director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, pointed out that, unlike Western medicine, there is no comprehensive database with information for traditional Chinese herbal remedies. Instead, the team must rely on the expertise of genetic researchers to identify precise herbal remedies.<\/p><p>Although Chinese herbal medicine has a rich history and is generally considered safe, each herb contains a variety of compounds. To fully understand how these medicines work, researchers need to analyze them in a manner similar to Western medicines. Chang Jan-gowth emphasized that the herbal medicine database is still incomplete and expressed his hope to develop a comprehensive one for Taiwan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5e14134 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5e14134\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5a425da\" data-id=\"5a425da\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab0db52 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ab0db52\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/138-32.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/138-32.jpg 960w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/138-32-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/138-32-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/138-32-768x1152.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8f56a01\" data-id=\"8f56a01\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ea14e67 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ea14e67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Chang Jan-gowth is a leading authority on whole-genome analysis in Taiwan, using next-generation gene sequencing to develop more effective treatment options for patients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61caaa0 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"61caaa0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4f946961 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4f946961\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5b0c94\" data-id=\"5b0c94\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27129931 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"27129931\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>From illness to rebirth<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-39f74496 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"39f74496\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In the past six months, a remarkable example of the successful integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine at Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital involved a 39-year-old patient from Hong Kong. Once an accomplished athlete in fencing and swimming, he was diagnosed in 2016 with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis\u2014better known as ALS or Lou Gehrig\u2019s disease. This progressive neurodegenerative disease left him unable to even lift his hands and reliant on a ventilator for survival.<\/p><p>In March of this year, he began treatment at Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital. A team of medical professionals began providing precision care that combines traditional Chinese and Western practices. The team includes Dr. Lin, Dr. Ho, Professor Chang, Neurosurgery Department Director Tsai Sheng-tzung (\u8521\u6607\u5b97), and Vice Director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Preventive Medicine Center Chen Jhong-kuei (\u9673\u4e2d\u594e). Their approach incorporates acupuncture, herbal medicine, endogenous stem cell therapy, adipose-derived stem cell treatment, and a personalized rehabilitation program. Within five months, the patient experienced obvious improvements in grip strength, enabling him to lift his phone and drink water independently.<\/p><p>Another inspiring story comes from Tu Bo-yu, the patient mentioned at the beginning of this article. In September, his mother, Liao Xing-jun (\u5ed6\u5e78\u541b), shared that after six months of treatment, her son had rediscovered his passion for painting and singing. His ability to create art, sing, and engage in limited movements greatly improved his quality of life, leaving everyone in awe.<\/p><p>Reflecting on this journey, Liao recounted the unpredictability of her son\u2019s condition after he fell ill. \u201cOne minute he could walk, and the next, he was completely paralyzed,\u201d she said. \u201cI often wondered if I\u2019d wake up to see him alive!\u201d Remembering the difficult days when his lung condition worsened and he struggled with a lack of appetite and could only communicate in fragments, she said, \u201cNow, seeing him speak fluently and draw makes me want to cry. Before, I cried because of his illness; now I cry out of joy.\u201d<\/p><p>Since his diagnosis, Tu Bo-yu has used social media to share his experiences, raising awareness about his rare condition and encouraging others facing similar challenges to find their strength. Dr. Lin Shinn-rong has been a source of encouragement, reminding him that there are still many things he can accomplish in life and urging him to keep striving, helping to instill hope in those who feel hopeless.<\/p><p>Liao expressed her deep gratitude, saying, \u201cMy son shares that while falling ill was unfortunate, he has met many kind people along the way, making him feel like the luckiest person. I am truly grateful to the medical team; meeting you all has been such a blessing!\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a293354 elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"a293354\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-687c5104\" data-id=\"687c5104\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7492213b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7492213b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1890\" height=\"1062\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6.png 1890w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6-1024x575.png 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/11\/PNG6-1536x863.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1890px) 100vw, 1890px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-629eaaf2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"629eaaf2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3afa4b4d\" data-id=\"3afa4b4d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ededd69 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6ededd69\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"189\" height=\"170\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/07\/\u82f1\u6587\u9801\u5c3e-2.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital provides precision medicine that integrates both traditional Chinese and Western medical \u2026 <a class=\"text-right\" href=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/?p=65339\"><span class=\"text\">Read More <\/span><span class=\"arrow\">\u00bb<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":65244,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"pmpro_default_level":0,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[2165],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.5 -
