Abstract:
Objective To study the potential molecular biological mechanism of Wuzi decoction on polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)by using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology.Methods TCMSP database and literature survey were used to screen the active ingredients of Wuzi decoction and related target proteins,and the target protein names were translated into target gene names.Key genes of PCOS disease were queried in the database,cross analysis of genes and visual networks were generated.The interaction network between drugs and disease targets were establish,key target proteins were conducted by gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analysis,and molecular docking validation of the proteins were encoded by the active components and the selected core target genes.Results According to the set conditions,81 active ingredients were found from the drug Wuzi decoction and a total of 221 targets genes were detected.A total of 151 TCM and disease interaction targets were obtained by using PCOS as the search term.The target genes were compared and analyzed,and the number of main core targets was 93.NPM1,HSPA5,YWHAZ,HNRNPA1,HNRNPK,MCM2,HSPA8,EEF1A1,VCP,and HSP90AB1 may be the main core targets for the treatment of PCOS.GO was used for analysis,and 376 enrichment results were obtained.A total of 102 related pathways were identified in the KEGG analysis.Corresponding active drug ingredient was docked with the core target protein molecule and shows good.Conclusion Wuzi decoction can play a role in the prevention and control of PCOS,and the mechanism of action involves multiple targets and signaling pathways.
