Abstract:
Objective To explore the key molecular targets and possible mechanisms of Aidi injection in the treatment of ovarian cancer using network pharmacology and cell experiments.Methods TCMSP database was used to screen the active ingredients and tar-gets of Aidi injection,and the abnormal expressed genes of ovarian cancer were screened,and the possible targets of Aidi injection in o-varian cancer were obtained after intersection analysis.Then,protein-protein interaction analysis,drug-compact-target network con-struction and enrichment analysis of possible targets were performed.The target was further screened,and the key genes related to the prognosis of ovarian cancer were experimentally verified.After treated with 50mg/ml Aidi injection,the cell proliferation ability was ob-served by CCK-8 assay,and the expression of core target genes was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results A total of 13 possible targets of Aidi injection in ovarian cancer were screened.These targets were mainly enriched in signaling pathways closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors,such as apoptosis,platinum resistance and interleukin-17.Among the 13 genes,claudin 4(CLDN4),secretory leukocyte peptidase inhibitor(SLPI)and baculoviral IAP repeat containing 5(BIRC5)were associated with the prognosis of ovarian cancer.Cell experiments showed that Aidi injection significantly inhibited the proliferation of ovari-an cancer cell,promoted the expression of BIRC5,a protective target of ovarian cancer,while significantly decreased the levels of ovarian cancer risk factors CLDN4 and SLPI.Conclusion Aidi injection may achieve multi-component,multi-target and multi-pathway anti-ovarian cancer and combination chemotherapy by affecting the expression of CLDN4,SLPI and BIRC5.
