Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Oral Mucositis (OM) is a common and highly symptomatic complication of cancer therapy that affects patient function and quality of life. Jingzhi Niuhuangjiedu Tablet (JNT) is derived from the famous Chinese herbal formulas Huanglian Jiedu and Fangfeng Tongsheng decoctions, which have been widely used to treat heat toxin syndrome diseases, such as acute pharyngitis, periodontitis, oral ulcers, and oral mucositis (OM), but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.
OBJECTIVES: This study validated the efficacy and explored the potential mechanisms of JNT in the treatment of OM by integrating network pharmacological analyses and experimental verification.
METHODS: Network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques were used to predict the active components, key targets, and potential mechanisms of action of JNT against OM. The rat OM model was established by administering 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and acetic acid to the rat oral mucosa. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) were used as an inflammatory cell model. The GFP-NFκB HEK293T cell line was transfected to evaluate the anti-NFκB activity of JNT.
RESULTS: A total of 236 Chinese herbal components and 201 corresponding targets were predicted for OM treatment using JNT. Bicuculine, luteolin, wogonin, and naringenin were identified as the important active compounds, while AKT1, ALB, IL6, MAPK3, and VEGFA were considered to be the major targets. Molecular docking revealed that these active compounds exhibited strong binding interactions with their targets. In vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated that the anti-OM effect of JNT might be closely related to AKT1, NFκB, caspase-1, and NLRP3, as well as biological processes, such as inflammatory response and oxidative stress.
CONCLUSION: Network pharmacological and experimental evidence indicates that JNT has a potential therapeutic effect on OM by regulating the Akt/NFκB/NLRP3 pathway.
