Molecular Mechanism of Bailing Capsules in Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Based on Network Pharmacology
This study aimed to predict the pharmacodynamic material basis and core targets of Bailing capsules in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) based on network pharmacology and molecular docking, which were further verified by cell experiments to explore the mechanism.
Method
2
The main active ingredients and related targets of Bailing capsules were screened in Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) and SwissTargetPrediction. The main COPD targets were searched from GeneCards, DrugBank, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) and Therapeutic Target Database (TTD). The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed by STRING and Cytoscape 3.6.1. Gene Ontology (GO) function annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed by the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). Molecular docking verification was carried out using AutoDock Vina. The cell viability was detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay, and the mRNA level of the targets was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR).
Result
2
A total of 11 active ingredients of Bailing capsules such as cerevisterol, 270 related drug targets, and 1 020 COPD target proteins were obtained, with 74 intersection targets. The visualization analysis of the PPI network showed that the core targets of Bailing capsules in the treatment of COPD were tumor protein P53 (TP53), catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and insulin (INS). Further, 20 signaling pathways were screened by KEGG enrichment analysis as the main pathways for Bailing capsules to treat COPD, involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), forkhead box O (FoxO), TNF, and hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) signaling pathways. Molecular docking validation demonstrated that four active ingredients had stable binding to IL-6, with the lowest energy. Bailing capsules could reduce the mRNA level of IL-6 in RAW264.7 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (

0.01) compared with the control group.
Conclusion
2
The pharmacological mechanism of Bailing capsules in the treatment of COPD might be that its main active ingredients improved the inflammatory response by acting on TP53, CTNNB1, TNF, IL-6 and other targets and regulating PI3K/Akt, cAMP and other signaling pathways, thereby ameliorating COPD symptoms. This study provided experimental basis for subsequent in-depth research, and provided a diagnosis and treatment direction for disease-related clinical treatment.
