Abstract:
Shengmaiyin is widely used in the treatment of arrhythmia and has achieved a good effect. Due to the complexity of traditional Chinese medical formula, the pharmacological mechanism of Shengmaiyin in the treatment of arrhythmia is unclear. In this study, we used the internet-based Computation Platform (www.tcmip.cn) to explore the molecular mechanism. Shengmaiyin was found to treat the arrhythmia by modulating the pathway related to energy metabolism such as carbon metabolism, purine metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, or by regulating the level of ATP. In this study, we find that the main active drug component in Shengmaiyin may be ginseng.
