摘要:

利用网络药理学和分子对接探讨蛇床子抗乳腺癌的分子机制。采用中药系统药理学数据库与分析平台获取中药蛇床子的化学成分及其相关靶点,借助Uniprot数据库进行基因转换;在GeneCards、OMIM数据库中检索乳腺癌疾病的相关靶点;利用Venn在线软件获取药物与疾病的共同靶点;由Cytoscape 3.7.2绘制药物-成分-靶点-疾病网络;STRING数据库构建蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用网络;基于DAVID数据库对靶点进行基因本体功能富集和京都基因与基因组百科全书通路富集分析,运用AutoDock软件对蛇床子的关键活性成分与作用靶点进行分子对接验证。结果表明, 蛇床子的17个有效成分通过调控19个靶点和56条通路对乳腺癌产生作用,4个关键的化合物分别为β-谷甾醇、(E)-2,3-bis(2-keto-7-methoxy-chromen-8-yl)acrolein、豆甾醇、蛇床子素,可通过HSP90AA1JUNPRKACAKDR等关键靶点介导癌症通路、癌症的蛋白聚糖、粘着斑、PI3K-Akt等信号通路发挥抗乳腺癌作用。该研究初步揭示了蛇床子抗乳腺癌的作用机制,为蛇床子的临床应用及其治疗乳腺癌的相关研究提供了理论依据。

Abstract:

The study aimed to investigate the potential therapy targets and pharmacological mechanism of Cnidii Fructus for the treatment of breast cancer using network pharmacology and molecular docking. The active components of Cnidii Fructus and the potential targets of active components were obtained via the traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform, and the gene conversions were obtained using the UniProt database. The targets of breast cancer were retrieved from GeneCards and OMIM database. The Venn online software was used to obtain the common targets of drug and disease, and then the drug-compound-target-disease network diagram was constructed using the Cytoscape 3.7.2 software. The STRING database was employed to draw the protein-protein interaction network. Further, the DAVID database was used to perform gene ontology function and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis on the effective targets, and the AutoDock software was used to verify the molecular docking of active components and core targets. The results revealed that 17 active components of the Cnidii Fructus regulated 19 targets and 56 pathways to treat breast cancer. The four key compounds were beta-sitosterol, (E)-2,3-bis(2-keto-7-methoxy-chromen-8-yl)acrolein, stigmasterol, and osthol, which generally mediate pathways in cancer, proteoglycans in cancer, focal adhesion, PI3K-Akt, and other signaling pathways. These pathways are mediated via HSP90AA1, JUN, PRKACA, KDR, and other key targets to exert the anti-breast cancer effects. The study preliminarily reveals the molecular mechanism of Cnidii Fructus against breast cancer and provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of Cnidii Fructus and its related research on breast cancer.
