| Summary: | Recent research has demonstrated the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and its active compounds in combating cancer, leading to an increasing utilization of TCM as adjunctive therapy in clinical oncology. However, the optimal dosage of TCM remains unclear, and excessive use may result in cardiotoxicity, which poses a significant health concern for patients undergoing systemic treatment. Therefore, elucidating the underlying mechanisms of cytotoxicity induced by TCM can provide valuable insights for clinical management. In this study, we employed a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis to present sequencing data obtained from AC16 myocardial cells treated with two bioactive derived from botanical drugs: Matrine and Evodiamine. We aim to investigate the dysregulated signaling pathways associated with cardiotoxicity induced by these compounds. Based on our sequencing results, we observed consistent patterns of gene expression and epitranscriptome regulation (m6A and A-to-I modifications) across various drugs-treated AC16 cells when analyzed using KEGG pathway enrichment and gene ontology analyses. Furthermore, m6A writers VIRMA and A-to-I writers ADARB1 is consistent target of Evodiamine and Matrine. In general, our findings suggest that different Chinese botanical drugs induced cardiotoxicity may share common therapeutic strategies. |
