Objective:To explore the mechanism of anti anxiety (AD) effect of Shenqi Schisandra chinensis using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology.Methods:The main active ingredients of S-Q-W-W-Z (Shenqi Schisandra chinensis) were screened through the TCMSP database. The corresponding targets of the active ingredients were obtained through the TCMSP database and SymMap database. The drug active ingredient target relationship network was visualized using Cytoscape. Utilize TTD, OMIM, NCBI, Drugbank, and GeneCards databases to directly identify potential targets for anxiety. We constructed interaction diagrams of potential targets based on the String database, and used Cytoscape tool to obtain key target proteins. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Tokyo Encyclopedia of Genomes (KEGG) signaling pathway analysis were used to identify key targets and signaling pathways for anti anxiety effects of Schisandra chinensis. AutodockTools software was used to perform molecular docking on key active ingredients and key target proteins, and their binding energies were calculated. The molecular docking results were visualized using PyMol software.Results:The 63 effective ingredients in Shen-Qi-Wu-Wei-Zi (Shenqi Schisandra chinensis) can act on anxiety disorder through 69 targets. Among them, quercetin, luteolin, and stigmasterol are the main active ingredients, and serine threonine protein kinase 1 (AKT1) protein and interleukin-6 (IL-6) protein are key target proteins. Molecular docking technology has verified the good binding ability between these key active ingredients and key target proteins. Shenqi Schisandra mainly exerted therapeutic effects on anxiety disorders by regulating Toll like receptor signaling pathways, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathways, cancer pathways, and other pathways.Conclusions:The Shenqi Schisandra may exert anti anxiety effects by regulating related targets such as AKT1 and IL-6, regulating inflammatory reactions, cell apoptosis, and other processes.

AIM: To detect the expression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium tissues and healthy conjunctival tissues, and to explore the relationship between the expression of P53 and mTOR, and the relationship between the expression of P53 and mTOR and the important clinical features of pterygium.METHODS: The surgical specimens of 43 patients(43 eyes)who underwent pterygium excision and autologous conjunctival transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University from November 2022 to May 2023 were collected. Healthy conjunctiva group was selected from the healthy conjunctival tissue that originated from the temporal conjunctiva of 13 patients. Totally 10 pterygium specimens and 6 normal conjunctival specimens were selected and the qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of P53 and mTOR in pterygium and normal conjunctival tissues. Another 33 cases of pterygium and 7 cases of normal conjunctival tissues were collected and the expression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium and normal conjunctival tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. IPP6.0 software was used to calculate the average optical density, the correlation between the expression levels of P53 and mTOR, and the correlation between the expression levels of P53 and mTOR and the important clinical features of pterygium were analyzed.RESULTS: According to qPCR results, the mRNA expression levels of TP53 and mTOR in the pterygium group were significantly higher than those in the healthy conjunctiva group(all P<0.05). According to the immunohistochemical staining results, the expression levels of P53 and mTOR proteins in the pterygium group were significantly higher than those in the healthy conjunctiva group(P<0.05). The expression of P53 was positively correlated with the expression of mTOR(r=0.417, P<0.05). The expression of P53 in the group of outdoor activity time > 3 h was higher than that in the group of outdoor activity time ≤3 h(P<0.05). The expression of P53 in the group of pterygium head invasive limbal distance > 2 mm was higher than that in the group of pterygium head invasive limbal distance ≤2 mm(P<0.05). There was no difference in the expression of pterygium between the two groups of patients aged > 40 years and ≤40 years(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of mTOR between the groups of outdoor activity time > 3 h and ≤3 h, the group of pterygium head invasion distance > 2 mm and ≤2 mm, and the group of > 40 years old and ≤40 years old(all P>0.05). The expression of P53 was positively correlated with the duration of outdoor activities(r=0.484, P<0.01)and the distance of limbal invasion(r=0.479, P<0.01). The expression of mTOR was not correlated with age, duration of outdoor activities, and distance of limbus invasion(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The overexpression of P53 and mTOR in pterygium showed a positive correlation, suggesting that the abnormal expression of P53 and mTOR may play a role in the pathogenesis of pterygium, which provides an experimental basis for further exploring the pathogenesis of pterygium; the expression of P53 is positively correlated with the time of outdoor activities and the distance of pterygium invasion. The P53 plays a role in evaluating the severity of pterygium, and provides new ideas for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pterygium.
