A web-based pharmacological approach to the mechanism of action of Radix Bupleuri in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis.
Radix Bupleuri (RB) is used as a traditional Chinese medicine for treating gastric disorders. However, the active components and pharmacological targets of RB are unknown. In this study, we aimed to reveal the pharmacological effects of RB on gastritis by combining a rat model and a network pharmacology approach. The results showed that quercetin was the most activate ingredient in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG). The molecular docking results showed that RB had a strong affinity with TNF. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that RB alleviated MNNG-induced gastritis by inhibiting the TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathway. Through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in vitro and in vivo experiments, the mechanisms and potential effects of RB on CAG were demonstrated, and a theoretical basis for RB in the treatment of CAG was provided.
