Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To optimize the heart-nourishing granule extraction process by network pharmacology and Box-Behnken response surface method. METHODS The active ingredients of heart-nourishing granule were excavated through network pharmacology and their mechanism of action in the treatment of coronary heart disease was preliminarily explored. Molecular docking technology was used to predict the binding ability of the active ingredients to the main targets. At the same time, based on the compatibility relationship between the monarch, minister, assistant and guide of the prescription, the pharmacological effects of the ingredients, and the content determination index components of each medicinal flavor in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, the process evaluation index components of heart-nourishing granule were further determined. In addition, combined with the analytic hierarchy process to determine the weight of each component, the Box-Behnken response surface method was used to optimize the extraction process of heart-nourishing granule. RESULTS The main active components of heart-nourishing granule screened were catalpol, Rhmannioside D, acteoside, ferulic acid and lobetyolin. By acting on core targets such as AKT1, IL-6, IL-1b, VEGFA, JUN and MAPK3, they regulated lipid and atherosclerosis, MAPK signaling and other pathways played a role in the treatment of coronary heart disease. Molecular docking results showed that the binding energies of active components and core targets predicted by network pharmacology were all < -5.0 kJ·mol-1. Five components catalpol, Rhmannioside D, acteoside, ferulic acid and lobetyolin were calculated by analytic hierarchy process method. The weight coefficients of arginyl glycosides were 0.329 7, 0.329 7, 0.164 8, 0.109 9, and 0.065 9, respectively. The Box-Behnken response surface method obtained the optimal water extraction process: 10 times the amount of water was used to extract twice, and each time was decocted for 1.5 h. The verification test showed that the contents of the five components were consistent with the predicted values, and the RSD values were all <5%. CONCLUSION The extraction process of heart-nourishing granule based on network pharmacology and Box-Behnken response surface methodology is stable and feasible, which provided an experimental basis for its further quality improvement.
