OBJECTIVE To explore the potential mechanism of Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula(YSQLF)in treating chronic kidney disease fibrosis in rats based on UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS technology and network pharmacology.METHODS UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS was used for qualitative analysis of Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula-containing serum.Targets of the plasma constituents and the disease were retrieved from SwissTargetPrediction,OMIM,GeneCards,and other databases.Then the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network was constructed and core targets were screened for GO term enrichment and KEGG pathway enrichment.Cytoscape software was em-ployed to construct the"drug-compound-core target-pathway"network and the targets and signaling pathways of Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula against fibrosis were predicted.A model of renal fibrosis was established to verify the core targets and pathway proteins.RE-SULTS A total of 56 constituents migrating to blood of Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula were identified.97 common targets of the constit-uents and the disease and 33 core targets were screened out.KEGG enrichment and PPI network analysis showed that Yishenqingli-huoxue Formula may play a role in the treatment of fibrosis through PI3K/Akt and other pathways.Furthermore,the results of animal experiments showed that Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula could reduce the levels of Scr and BUN,improve fibrosis areas,inhibit the acti-vation of the PI3K/Akt pathway,and reduce the protein expression of TNF-α.CONCLUSION Yishenqinglihuoxue Formula may play a role in the treatment of fibrosis by inhibiting PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and inhibiting TNF-α expression.
