Recent preclinical studies have indicated that <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i> has a wide range of pharmacological properties making it useful for the treatment of diverse liver diseases. <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i> protects the liver from harmful hepatotoxins, reduces hepatic oxidative stress, ameliorates steatosis, and alleviates hepatic inflammation, fibrosis, and cancer. Moreover, several key mechanisms, including apoptosis, AMP-activated protein kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and nuclear factor kappa B, may be involved in the benefits of <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i> in hepatic disorders. In particular, salvianolic acid B and cryptotanshinone, both compounds derived from <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i>, possess therapeutic activities similar to those of <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i>, and thus may play a crucial role in the therapeutic activity of <i>S. miltiorrhiza</i> in liver diseases.

The overproduction of reactive oxygen species observed in AD patients results in the loss of mitochondrial function, altered metal ion homeostasis, lipopolysaccharide metabolism disorder, reduced anti-oxidant defense, increased release of inflammatory factors, and the aggravation and accumulation of amyloid-beta and tau hyper-phosphorylation, which directly cause synaptic and neuronal loss and lead to cognitive dysfunction. Thus, oxidative stress proves to be a fundamental part of AD development and progression, suggesting the potential benefits of anti-oxidant-based therapies for AD. In this study, we found that a water-soluble extract of <i>Artemisia annua</i> (<i>WSEAA</i>), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, has a strong anti-oxidant function. We also found that <i>WSEAA</i> is able to improve the cognitive function of 3xTg AD mice. However, the mechanisms and molecular targets underlying <i>WSEAA</i> action are still not known. In order to uncover the potential molecular mechanisms involved, we used a combination of network pharmacology and different experimental approaches. Obtained results revealed key genes (such as AKT1, BCL2, IL-6, TNF-[Formula: see text] and BAX) and signaling pathways (like PI3K-AKT and BCL2/BAX) are closely associated with the biological processes responding to oxidative stress. Further verification of the survival/anti-oxidant effects of <i>WSEAA in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> showed that the extract has anti-oxidatant/neuronal survival action against H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>-induced damage, and is thus able to prevent the cognitive decline and pathological changes of 3xTg transgenic (3xTg) mice via the regulation of key target-genes and pathways, such as PI3K-AKT and BCL2/BAX, related to survival/apoptosis.
