We then determined the intersection between compound targets and disease targets, constructing a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network by importing these into the STRING database.

An in vitro H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress injury model in hepatocytes was established to investigate the protective effect of MPMAP-I on L02 cells.

Arsenic exposure causes a number of negative consequences on the human body, including the upsurge of oxidant.

This research examined how <i>Nauclea latifolia</i> could reduce oxidative stress, inflammation, and distortion to the liver and kidneys in Wistar rats exposed to high-fat diets and arsenic. Five groups of five rats each were treated daily for 6 weeks. Rats fed only with high-fat diet with arsenic exhibited considerable elevations in proinflammatory markers, urea, creatinine, and liver enzymes, alongside significant decreases in SOD, CAT, and GSH levels. Treatment with silymarin and <i>N. latifolia</i> root extract prevented oxidative stress and elevated liver enzyme activity and kidney function biomarkers. The rats subjected to a high-fat diet and arsenic suffered significant damage to the histology of the liver and kidney. However, treatment with extracts and silymarin protected the kidney and the liver damage. <i>N. latifolia</i> roots may attenuate the toxic consequences of diets high in fat and arsenic on the renal system and the liver by lowering reactive oxygen molecules and improving renal and liver function.
