Abstract
Objective. To study the molecular targets and mechanisms of Dayuan Decoction in the treatment of fever. Methods. The traditional Chinese medicine system pharmacological database and analysis platform (TCMSP) was used to search for the main active components and action targets of Dayuan Decoction. The GeneCards database was used to retrieve fever-related gene targets. The common gene targets were obtained by selecting the intersection of the action targets of the main active components of Dayuan Decoction and the fever-related gene targets using a Wayne diagram. Cytoscape 3.7.2 software was used to construct the drug active component action target network diagram. The protein-protein interaction PPI network of coacting targets was constructed using the STRING database. David data were used for Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses of common gene targets. Results. A total of 89 main active components and 832 acting gene targets of Dayuan Decoction were screened, of which 50 were common gene targets of Dayuan Decoction and fever, including apoptosis regulatory factor Bel (BCL2L1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis protein 53 (TP53). A total of 47 GO and 59 KEGG enrichment entries were obtained using GO and KEGG enrichment analyses, involving the cancer pathway, hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Conclusion. Dayuan Decoction has multitarget regulation characteristics and a multifaceted role in the treatment of fever.
