文摘目的:基于网络药理学分析丹参-红花药对防治肺动脉高压(pulmonary hypertension,PH)的作用机制。方法:在中药系统药理学数据库与分析平台检索丹参、红花的化学成分及相关靶点。通过GeneCards、OMIM、DrugBank数据库获取PH相关靶点,将其导入STRING数据库获得蛋白互作关系,并利用Cytoscape-v3.8.2软件进行拓扑分析,筛选PH核心靶点。将核心靶点与丹参、红花的有效成分靶蛋白取交集,获取丹参-红花药对防治PH的潜在靶点。将潜在靶点导入Rx644.0.2软件进行基因本体论(Gene Ontology,GO)富集分析和京都基因与基因组百科全书(Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes,KEGG)信号通路富集分析。将丹参、红花的有效成分和潜在靶点导入Cytoscape-v 3.8.2软件,构建“成分-靶点”网络,拓扑分析筛选关键靶点及相应有效成分,并运用AutoDock Vina软件进行分子对接。结果:丹参-红花药对共有62种有效成分及212个靶蛋白。通过GeneCards、OMIM、DrugBank数据库筛选出134个PH相关蛋白,与化学成分相关靶点取交集获得46个共同靶点。GO功能富集分析共获得2316个功能项,其中生物学过程2162项、细胞组分29项、分子功能125项;KEGG富集分析共获得166条信号通路。“成分-靶点”网络分析显示,RELA、TP53、JUN、TNF等为关键靶点,槲皮素、木犀草素、黄芩素、山柰酚、丹参酮ⅡA和隐丹参酮等为核心成分。分子对接显示,核心成分与关键靶点对接良好。结论:丹参-红花药对可能通过槲皮素、木犀草素、黄芩素等多种有效成分作用于TNF、RELA、TP53等核心蛋白调控PI3K-AKT、Th17细胞分化、TNF等通路,进而调控氧化应激、细胞增殖、蛋白磷酸化等生物过程发挥防治PH的作用。
