目前，对糖尿病的治疗仍以西药为主。西药治疗糖尿病存在低血糖等多种不良反应，不能阻止胰岛功能的进行性衰竭，部分药物还存在继发性失效的情况。近年来，一些中药被发现具备降糖作用，对胰岛功能具有一定的保护作用，且不良反应较轻，易于被患者接受，因此临床对中药治疗糖尿病寄予厚望。文中根据中药对胰岛功能保护的机制，从减少氧化应激，增加胰岛β细胞数量及促进β细胞分泌，减轻胰岛素抵抗、增进胰岛素敏感性等方面进行综述，阐述中药在糖尿病治疗中的独特作用。

So far, the major therapeutic drugs of diabetes are western medicine , but side effects of hypoglycemic western med-icine are large and not easy to take for a long time .In recent years , we found the side effects of some kind of hypoglycemic Chinese herbal medicine were small , much easier to be accepted by the patients .Thus, the clinical treatment of diabetes may have new meth-ods.According to the mechanisms of Traditional Chinese Medicine for protection of islet function , this review will discuss them from re-ducing oxidative stress , increasing the number of islet cells and promoting βcells to secrete, relieving insulin resistance , increasing in-sulin sensitivity and so on .All of these aspects reflect the unique role of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the treatment of diabetes and protection of islet function .
