摘要

目的:通过网络药理学和动物模型实验,探讨金水六健汤加味八吉天丸联合治疗慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)所致肌肉萎缩的疗效。方法:采用网络药理学技术,分析中药治疗慢性阻塞性肺病的潜在靶点。在体内,采用脂多糖(LPS)联合烟雾治疗诱导COPD小鼠模型。为了比较中药对本病的保护作用,我们进一步评估了不同组小鼠的一般情况、血清炎症因子、蛋白表达水平、基因拷贝数以及肺和腓肠肌质量的组织病理学变化。结果:网络药理学分析确定了203个交叉靶点,主要与细胞凋亡、磷酸化和炎症反应有关。动物实验表明,中药可显著改善骨骼肌萎缩(p)。结论:金水六健汤加味八吉天丸可通过多靶点机制调节Nrf2/HO-1通路,有效缓解COPD相关肌肉萎缩。中西医结合治疗比单药治疗效果更好。

Regulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-induced muscle atrophy using Jinshui Liujian decoction and Bajitian pills: insights from network pharmacology and animal models.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of the combination of modified Jinshui Liujian decoction and Bajitian pills (TCM) on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-induced muscle atrophy using network pharmacology and animal model experiments.

Methods: Network pharmacology technique has been employed to analyze the potential targets of TCM on treating COPD. In vivo, COPD mice model was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) combined with smoke treatment. To comparing the protective effects of TCM on this disease, these parameters including general condition, serum inflammatory factors, protein expression levels, gene copies, and histopathological changes in the lungs and gastrocnemius muscle mass have been further assessed in mouse in different groups.

Results: Network pharmacology analysis identified 203 intersecting targets, primarily associated with apoptosis, phosphorylation, and inflammatory response. Animal experimental demonstrated that TCM could significantly improve the decreased skeletal muscle mass (p < 0.001), abnormal histopathologic morphology, decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD, p < 0.05), increased levels of serum malondialdehyde (MDA, p < 0.001) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α, p < 0.001) as compared to model group. Further mechanism exploration showed that a significant increase on the gene and proteins levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2, p < 0.05) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1, p < 0.05) have been observed in TCM-treated animals compared with that of in model animals. Interestingly, some indicators (serum MDA/SOD/TNF-α, RNA and protein levels of NRF2 and HO-1) showed more positive changes in TCM combined with western medicine (TCM-WN) - treated animals compared with that of TCM-treated animals.

Conclusion: Modified Jinshui Liujian decoction and Bajitian pills effectively mitigate muscle atrophy associated with COPD by modulating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway through multi-target mechanisms. The combined TCM and WM therapy demonstrates enhanced therapeutic efficacy compared to monotherapy.
