Using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology, proteomics and experiments were used to verify the effect of Yigu decoction (YGD) on the expression of key genes in osteoporotic mice
Background Yigu decoction (YGD) is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription for the treatment of osteoporosis, although many clinical studies have confirmed its anti-OP effect, but the specific mechanism is still not completely clear.Methods In this study, through the methods of network pharmacol...

description | Background Yigu decoction (YGD) is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription for the treatment of osteoporosis, although many clinical studies have confirmed its anti-OP effect, but the specific mechanism is still not completely clear.Methods In this study, through the methods of network pharmacology and molecular docking, the material basis and action target of YGD in preventing and treating OP were analyzed, and the potential target and mechanism of YGD in preventing and treating OP were clarified by TMT quantitative protein and experiment.Results Network pharmacology and molecular docking revealed that the active components of YGD were mainly stigmasterol and flavonoids. Molecular docking mainly studied the strong binding ability of stigmasterol to the target. Animal proteomics verified the related mechanism of YGD in preventing and treating OP. Based on the KEGG enrichment of network pharmacology and histology, our animal experiments in vivo verified that YGD may play a role in the treatment of OP by mediating hif1- α/vegf/glut1 signal pathway.Conclusions YGD prevention and treatment of OP may be achieved by interfering with multiple targets. This study confirmed that it may promote osteoblast proliferation and protect osteoblast function by up-regulating the expression of proteins related to HIF signal pathway. |
