摘要:

文题释义:
网络药理学:以系统生物学为基础,对特定信号节点进行多靶点药物分子设计的新学科。强调药物的多分子多靶标多途径调节,提升药物疗效,降低毒副反应,从而提高新药研发效率,节省药物的研发费用。
补肾活血汤:出自《伤科大成》,由红花、当归、肉苁蓉、山茱萸、枸杞子、菟丝子、熟地黄、杜仲、没药、独活和补骨脂十一味中药组方而成,有补益肝肾、强筋壮骨、活血止痛之功效。

背景:有研究表明补肾活血汤在治疗股骨头坏死方面有着非常积极的作用,但复方中所含化学成分较为复杂,且在分子水平上治疗股骨头坏死的作用机制及其药理机制尚不明确,因此借助网络药理学和蛋白模块分析从分子靶点水平来阐释补肾活血汤治疗股骨头坏死的潜在活性成分及作用机制,为后期新药研发及更好应用于临床提供一定理论依据。
目的:通过网络药理学及蛋白模块分析探究补肾活血汤治疗股骨头坏死的分子靶点及机制。
方法:借助TCMSP和TCMID数据库检索补肾活血汤中红花、当归、肉苁蓉、山茱萸、枸杞子、菟丝子、熟地黄、杜仲、没药、独活和补骨脂中含有的化合物及其作用靶点;通过GeneCards和CTD数据库预测股骨头坏死的相关靶点;采用Cytoscape 3.7.2软件构建药物-归经-化合物-靶点网路,STRING数据库进行蛋白互作网络的构建与分析,Metascape数据库分析关键蛋白模块;利用DAVID数据库进行GO功能富集分析和KEGG通路富集分析。
结果与结论:①筛选得到补肾活血汤共167个药效成分和151个作用靶点,关键靶点包括过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体、血管内皮生长因子A、肿瘤坏死因子和表皮生长因子受体等;②股骨头坏死相关靶点8 817个;③蛋白互作核心网络共128个蛋白,分析得到5个蛋白模块;④获得289个GO生物过程,KEGG通路富集筛选得到110条相关信号通路,通路类型包括雌激素、磷酸肌醇-3激酶/蛋白激酶、环磷酸腺苷、Wnt信号、肿瘤坏死因子和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶等,这些通路均与股骨头坏死的发生发展相关;⑤结果证实,补肾活血汤可能通过调节细胞代谢、增殖与凋亡、脂代谢及促进血管生成等多种途径达到治疗股骨头坏死的目的,是多成分、多靶点和多通路相互作用的结果。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that Bushen Huoxue Decoction has a very active role in treating osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), but the chemical ingredients contained in the compound are more complicated. The action mechanism and pharmacological mechanism of the compound underlying the treatment of ONFH at the molecular level are not yet clear. Therefore, network pharmacology and protein module analyses are used to explain the potential active ingredients and molecular mechanism of Bushen Huoxue Decoction, and provide a certain theoretical basis for the later development of new drugs and better clinical application in the treatment of ONFH.   
OBJECTIVE: Through network pharmacology and protein module analysis to explore the molecular targets and mechanisms of Bushen Huoxue Decoction in the treatment of ONFH. 
METHODS: The compounds and their targets in Carthamus tinctorius, Angelica sinensis, Cistanche deserticola, Cornus officinalis, Chinese wolfberry, dodder, Radix Rehmanniae, Eucommia ulmoides, myrrh, Fructus psoraleae and Fructus psoraleae in Bushen Huoxue Decoction were searched by TCMSP and TCMID databases, and the related targets of ONFH were predicted by GeneCards and CTD databases. The drug-meridian-compound-target network was constructed by Cytoscape3.7.2, the protein-protein interaction network was constructed and analyzed by STRING database, and the key protein modules were analyzed by Metascape database. Gene ontology (GO) functional enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were carried out by using DAVID database. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 167 active components and 151 action targets of Bushen Huoxue Decoction were screened, with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, vascular endothelial growth factor A, tumor necrosis factor and epidermal growth factor receptor as key targets. There were 8 817 related targets of ONFH, 128 proteins in the protein-protein interaction core network, and 5 protein modules. A total of 289 GO biological processes were obtained, and 110 related signal pathways were obtained by enrichment and screening of KEGG pathway, including estrogen, phosphoinositide-3 kinase/protein kinase, cyclic adenosine phosphate, Wnt signaling, tumor necrosis factor and mitogen-activated protein kinase. These pathways were associated with the occurrence and development of ONFH. The results show that Bushen Huoxue Decoction may treat ONFH by regulating cell metabolism, proliferation and apoptosis, lipid metabolism and promoting angiogenesis, which is the result of the interaction of multi-components, multi-targets and multi-pathways.
