Abstract:
Based on network pharmacology and in vitro assays,we conducted a collaborative investi-gation into the protective effects of ginsenosides Rg1 and Re on LPS-induced damage of porcine je-junal epithelial cells IPEC-J2.Network pharmacology was used to obtain and screen the intersec-ting targets of Rg1 and Re to alleviate intestinal barrier damage,and molecular docking technique was used to verify the predicted results of network pharmacology.The experiment included the Control group,LPS group,Rg1 group,and Re group.The effects of different concentrations of Rg1 and Re on cell survival rate,apoptosis rate,TEER value,FD4 permeability,and inflammatory fac-tors of IPEC-J2 were observed,and the effects of different concentrations of Rg1 and Re on the mRNA expression levels of apoptosis-related genes were also detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The results of network pharmacology showed that the prevention of intestinal barrier damage by Rg1,Re mainly involved the processes of PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways.The molec-ular docking results showed that the binding energy of Rg1 to all intersecting targets was less than 0,while that of ginsenoside Re to SRC targets only was less than 0.In vitro experiments showed that pretreatment with different concentrations of Rg1 and Re increased the survival rate and TEER value of LPS-treated IPEC-J2 to varying degrees,and reduced the apoptosis,the decrease of FD4 permeability,and the secretion of inflammatory factor TNF-α,suggesting that Re and Rg1 prevented the intestinal barrier from damage.It was shown that Re and Rg1 could effectively re-duce the effects of LPS treatment on IPEC-J2 cells.Rg1 significantly upregulated the mRNA ex-pression levels of MAPK8,MAPK10,HRAS,and significantly down-regulated the mRNA expres-sion levels of MAP2K1,PIK3CG,IL-2 and SRC;and Re significantly upregulated the mRNA ex-pression levels of MAPK8,MAPK10,HRAS,and PIK3R1,BCL2 gene mRNA expression levels.These results suggest that ginsenosides Rg1,Re and ginsenoside products containing Rg1 and Re deserve further investigation in preventing intestinal barrier damage in piglets.
