Deciphering the potential mechanism of Siwu decoction for treating cancer-related anemia based on network pharmacology and molecular docking technology

Background:Siwu decoction(SWD)is a traditional Chinese herbal decoction commonly used for treating various symptoms of blood deficiency and blood stasis,including cancer-related anemia(CRA).However,due to its complex composition,the key active ingredients and underlying mechanisms of its therapeutic effects often remain unknown.This research aims to use network pharmacology and molecular docking technology to systematically elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying the efficacy of SWD in treating cancer-related anemia.Methods:The key constituents of SWD were procured from the TCMSP database.Leveraging the Swiss ADME and Swiss Target Prediction databases,potential targets were recognized.Disease-related targets were assembled via the GeneCards and DrugBank databases.Constructing the PPI network involved the utilization of the STRING database,followed by visualization through Cytoscape 3.9.1 software.Subsequently,GO and KEGG enrichment analysis was conducted utilizing the DAVID database,with visual analysis performed on the macrobiotic platform.For molecular docking,the Autodock software was employed,and the molecular docking outcomes were visualized using the PyMOL software.Results:In this investigation,a comprehensive revelation of 18 primary active compounds and 511 associated targets linked to CRA was accomplished.The outcomes of protein-protein interaction(PPI)analysis unequivocally identified AKT1,EGFR,SRC,VEGFA,HRAS,MAPK3,and STAT3 as pivotal proteins within the SWD’s framework for effective CRA intervention.Notably,signaling pathways such as the HIF-1,JAK-STAT,TNF-α,and PI3K-Akt pathways,intricately involved in hematopoietic stem cell proliferation,differentiation,and inflammatory response,emerged as closely intertwined with the therapeutic application of SWD for CRA treatment.The congruence between these potential targets and SWD’s primary therapeutic constituents for CRA treatment was substantiated by the outcomes of molecular docking analysis.Conclusion:This work provided a reference for further fundamental research by outlining the primary active ingredients and putative molecular mechanisms of SWD in the treatment of CRA.

Screening of active ingredients of Taohong Siwu Decoction on platelet membrane receptor

OBJECTIVE To screen the active ingredients preventing platelet aggregations from Taohong Siwu Decoction. METHODS Fresh blood from healthy adult volunteer was collected with vacuum tube for preparation of platelet suspension.

Research progress of Taohong Siwu Decoction and its modified prescription in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy

Western medicine mainly focuses on the conventional basic treatment of Diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN),such as blood glucose control,anti-oxidative stress,and nerve nutrition,but the efficacy and safety of the drugs cannot be guaranteed.As an important prescription for promoting blood circulation,removing blood stasis and nourishing blood,Taohong Siwu Decoction can not only promote cell proliferation and repair,reduce inflammatory factors in the blood,reduce the whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity,and has a good anticoagulation effect.Moreover,Taohong Siwu Decoction and its added or subtracted prescription,foot bath and combined acupuncture have the effect of regulating blood sugar,improving nerve conduction velocity and relieving clinical symptoms,without obvious adverse reactions.This article reviews Taohong Siwu Decoction and its addition and subtraction in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Taohong Siwu decoction(桃红四物汤)ameliorates atherosclerosis in rats possibly through toll-like receptor 4/myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88/nuclear factor-κB signal pathway

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Taohong Siwu decoction(桃红四物汤,TSD)on atherosclerosis in rats as well as investigate the underlying mechanism based on molecular docking.METHODS:Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats in each group:control group,model group,atorvastatin group(AT,2.0 mg/kg),and TSD groups(20,10,5 g/kg)after 7 d of acclimation.The model of atherosclerosis was successfully established except the control group by high fat diet(HFD)and vitamin D2.Biochemical analyzers were used to detect the levels of triglyceride(TG),total cholestero(TC),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDLC)and high density lipid-cholesterol(HDL-C)in blood lipid.The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Sudan IV staining and Hematoxylin and eosin staining(HE staining)were performed to observe the pathological changes in aortic tissue.Molecular docking technology was used to predict the best matching between the main components of TSD and the target proteins.The expression of target proteins was further detected by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction(q RTPCR)and Western blot analysis.RESULTS:The results showed that TSD restricted atherosclerosis development and decreased the inflammatory cytokines in plasma.Molecular docking results predicted that the main components of TSD showed a strong binding ability with toll-like receptor(TLR4),myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88(My D88),and nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB).The results of q RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that the m RNA and protein expressions of TLR4,My D88 and NF-κB p65 in the aorta were reduced in atorvastatin group and TSD group.CONCLUSIONS:TSD can ameliorate atherosclerosis in rats,and the underlying mechanism is supposed be related to the suppression of inflammatory response by regulating TLR4/My D88/NF-κB signal pathway.

Taohong Siwu Decoction:a classical Chinese prescription for treatment of orthopedic diseases

The pathogenesis of orthopedic diseases is intimately linked to blood stasis,frequently arising from damage to primary and secondary blood channels.This disruption can lead to“blood leaving the meridians”or Qi stagnation,resulting in blood stasis syndrome.Taohong Siwu Decoction(THSWD)is a renowned classical Chinese medicinal formula extensively used to promote blood circulation and mitigate blood stasis.Clinical studies have demonstrated its significant therapeutic effects on various orthopedic conditions,particularly its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties,as well as its efficacy in preventing deep vein thrombosis post-surgery.Despite these findings,research on THSWD remains fragmented,and its interdisciplinary impact is limited.This review aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the efficacy and pharmacological mechanisms of THSWD in treating common orthopedic diseases.Additionally,we employ bibliometric analysis to explore research trends and hotspots related to THSWD.We hope this review will enhance the recognition and application of THSWD in orthopedic treatments and guide future research into its pharmacological mechanisms.

桃红四物汤联合针刺、洛芬待因缓释片治疗营血虚滞型神经根型颈椎病的效果分析

目的:分析桃红四物汤联合针刺、洛芬待因缓释片治疗营血虚滞型神经根型颈椎病的效果。方法:选取2021年10月—2022年10月北京市昌平区中西医结合医院收治的营血虚滞型神经根型颈椎病患者60例作为研究对象,随机分为观察组与对照组,各30例。对照组给予针刺联合洛芬待因缓释片治疗,观察组在对照组基础上给予桃红四物汤治疗。比较两组治疗效果。结果:观察组肢体麻木、颈椎疼痛、头晕头痛改善时间早于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组复发率低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P=0.044)。治疗后,两组疼痛评分低于治疗前,且观察组低于对照组,两组颈椎功能评分高于治疗前,且观察组高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组治疗总有效率高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P=0.023)。治疗后,两组生理功能、社会功能、躯体疼痛、情感职能评分高于治疗前,且观察组高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:桃红四物汤联合针刺、洛芬待因缓释片治疗营血虚滞型神经根型颈椎病的效果显著,可快速改善患者临床症状,减轻疼痛,恢复颈椎功能,降低复发率,提高生活质量。

垫枕结合加味桃红四物汤治疗单纯性胸腰椎压缩性骨折临床观察

目的探讨垫枕结合加味桃红四物汤治疗单纯性胸腰椎压缩性骨折的临床效果。方法选择2021年4月—2021年12月漳州正兴医院收治的单纯性胸腰椎压缩性骨折患者60例为研究对象,按抽签法分为对照组和观察组,每组30例。对照组给予加味桃红四物汤,观察组在对照组基础上采用垫枕干预,比较2组伤椎Cobb角、胸腰椎功能[Oswestry功能障碍指数(ODI)评分]、疼痛程度[视觉模拟量表(VAS)评分]、舒适状况及护理工作满意度。结果入院时2组Cobb角、ODI评分、VAS评分、舒适状况评分及护理工作满意度比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);治疗1周后,观察组ODI及VAS评分均低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);观察组出院当天舒适状况及护理工作满意度评分均高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);治疗1个月后,观察组Cobb角小于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论单纯性胸腰椎压缩性骨折患者采用垫枕结合加味桃红四物汤治疗有利于改善患者胸腰椎功能,缓解疼痛程度,提高舒适状况及对骨科护理工作的满意度。
