[Therapeutic mechanism of Compound Xuanju Capsule on erectile dysfunction].
Objective: To investigate the pharmacological mechanism of Compound Xuanju Capsule in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) by using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology.
Methods: The active ingredients and targets of Compound Xuanju Capsule were screened using Traditional Chinese Medicine Systematic Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP). TTD, OMIM, DrugBank and GeneCards databases were used to obtain genes related to ED, and the union of the results was taken as the disease genes of ED. The common target of drug and disease was taken as the potential target of Compound Xuanju Capsule in ED, and the drug-disease interaction network was constructed by using Cytoscape software. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed by using String database, which was then imported into Cytoscape to identify the key target. Based on the drug-disease intersection genes, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were performed to predict the relevant signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms of Compound Xuanju Capsule for the treatment of ED. Autodock software was used to perform molecular docking between the active ingredients and the core targets.
Results: Forty chemical components of Compound Xuanju Capsule were screened, and 239 predicted targets were obtained. A total of 1 907 ED-related genes were screened, and 97 common targets were identified between Compound Xuanju Capsule and ED, among which the core targets included EGFR, ESR1, HIF1A, PTGS2, and STAT3. The signaling pathways obtained by KEGG enrichment analysis included calcium signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, relaxin signaling pathway, Serotonergic synapse signaling pathway. The molecular docking results showed that there were molecular binding sites between the key active ingredients and the core targets with strong binding activity.
Conclusion: Compound Xuanju Capsule may treat ED through multi-target pathways such as anti-inflammatory and improving cellular oxidative stress.
期刊介绍:
National journal of andrology was founded in June 1995. It is a core journal of andrology and reproductive medicine, published monthly, and is publicly distributed at home and abroad. The main columns include expert talks, monographs (basic research, clinical research, evidence-based medicine, traditional Chinese medicine), reviews, clinical experience exchanges, case reports, etc. Priority is given to various fund-funded projects, especially the 12th Five-Year National Support Plan and the National Natural Science Foundation funded projects. This journal is included in about 20 domestic databases, including the National Science and Technology Paper Statistical Source Journal (China Science and Technology Core Journal), the Source Journal of the China Science Citation Database, the Statistical Source Journal of the China Academic Journal Comprehensive Evaluation Database (CAJCED), the Full-text Collection Journal of the China Journal Full-text Database (CJFD), the Overview of the Chinese Core Journals (2017 Edition), and the Source Journal of the Top Academic Papers of China's Fine Science and Technology Journals (F5000). It has been included in the full text of the American Chemical Abstracts, the American MEDLINE, the American EBSCO, and the database.
