This study aims to investigate the medication rules of patented traditional Chinese medi-cine(TCM)compound formulas and molecular mechanisms of core drugs for treating sepsis using data mining and network pharmacology approaches.In the present study,we first searched the PubMed database,Web of Science database,and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)since the establishment of the library to April 30,2024 for the relevant literature on the treatment of sepsis by traditional Chinese medicine.The prescriptions were then statistically ana-lyzed for drug frequency and association analysis to obtain the core drugs.Then we screened the ef-fective active ingredients of the core drugs by TCMSP and other database platforms,obtained sep-sis-related genes in GeneCards and other databases,and statistically intersected targets,and predic-ted the mechanism of action of the core TCMs by subjecting the intersected targets to PPI analy-sis,GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis.Finally,the relationship between key tar-gets and herbal components was examined in reverse by molecular docking method.The results showed that 64 compound formulas were obtained,with a total of 150 Chinese medicines,which were mostly sweet in taste,cold in nature,and belonged to the spleen,stomach and intestinal me-ridians.According to the association rules,the core drugs were identified as"mirabilite-peach ker-nel-rheum officinale".There were 79 intersecting targets between the core drugs and sepsis,with core targets such as IL-1β,EGFR and SRC.MAPK,TNF,IL-17 and other signaling pathways are involved to mediate inflammatory responses,apoptosis and other biological processes to exert ther-apeutic effects on sepsis.The molecular docking results indicated that the docking activity of the key targets with the main components of the drug,and sennoside E_qt has the lowest binding ener-gy and the best docking activity with SRC.In conclusion,this study showed that the prescription of Chinese medicine for sepsis is mostly based on tonifying the spleen and clearing heat.The mecha-nism of action of the core drug"mirabilite-peach kernel-rheum officinale"in the treatment of sep-sis is multilevel and multifaceted,which provides a certain theoretical basis for the treatment of sepsis by traditional Chinese medicine.

Danggui Buxue decoction(DBD)is a classic prescription with immunomodulatory and hematopoietic effects.Previous studies have shown the DBD has potential to be used as an oral im-mune booster.However,its immunomodulatory effects and mechanism of action have not been thoroughly studied,especially the protective mechanism of immunomodulatory regulation in the state of immunosuppressive is still unclear.The aim of this study was to explore the protective mechanism of DBD in the immunosuppressive state using network pharmacology combined with animal experiments verification.The active components,core targets and signaling pathways of DBD in treating immunosuppression were obtained using network pharmacology tools.On this ba-sis,the active components of DBD were identified using HPLC-MS,and in vivo studies were con-ducted at the same time.The key active components of DBD obtained using network pharmacology included quercetin,kaempferol and formononetin.The core targets included TP53,RELA,TNF,AKT1,and IL-6.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)-protein kinase B(AKT)may play an important role in the treatment of immunosuppres-sive diseases using DBD.Molecular docking confirmed that each core target had good binding activ-ity with its corresponding compounds.Animal experiments showed that after DBD intervention,the mRNA gene and protein expression of RELA,TNF,and IL-6 in the serum was significantly down-regulated.The mRNA expression of PI3K and AKT in the ileum and PI3K protein expression were also downregulated.In conclusion,DBD exerts its role in treating immunosuppressive diseases by regulating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

This study was aimed at predicting and analyzing the structural and functional properties of the persistence-associated secretory protein PaaX in Mycobacterium tuberculosis(M.tb),identifying its interacting partners,and elucidating its biological roles.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that PaaX comprises 240 amino acids with a molecular mass of 26.54 kDa(C1158H1866N354O334S14).The protein lacks transmembrane domains but contains a signal peptide.Its secondary structure is dominated by α-helices(53.33%),fol-lowed by random coils(36.25%)and extended strands(10.42%),thereby forming a homotetrameric spatial configuration.Potential PaaX-interacting proteins,including Rv0406c,EchA4,EchA5,HsaE,FadE8,LpqP,and End,were predicted.These candidate genes and the paaX gene were cloned into bacterial two-hybrid vectors and co-transformed into Escherichia coli BTH101 cells.Colony PCR and sequencing confirmed the accuracy of the recombinant constructs.Bacterial two-hybrid assays demonstrated direct interac-tions of PaaX with EchA4,HsaE,FadE8,and LpqP.Moreover,gradient dilution experiments indicated that the strongest binding af-finity occurred between PaaX and EchA4.AlphaFold 3 modeling further validated these interactions,thus providing high-confidence predictions of binding interfaces.Our findings revealed that PaaX,a secreted α-helix-rich protein,engages in specific interactions with key metabolic enzymes(EchA4,HsaE,and FadE8)and a lipoprotein(LpqP),thus suggesting its potential involvement in lipid metabolism,stress adaptation,and host-pathogen interactions.This study provides novel insights into PaaX's contribution to M.tb per-sistence and pathogenicity,and highlights its value as a potential target for tuberculosis diagnostics and therapeutic development.
