ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are characterized by high prevalence, severity, and a significant impact on quality of life. Conventional treatments, such as corticosteroids and biologics, often lead to adverse reactions. Traditional Chinese medicine, with its multi-component and multi-target characteristics, demonstrates potential as an alternative therapy for ADs. In traditional Chinese medicine, Dioscorea nipponica Makino (DnM) is often used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases and type 1 diabetes, among other autoimmune conditions. Therefore, we delve into the association of this herb with ADs.
AIM OF THE STUDY: We investigate the therapeutic potential and multi-target mechanisms of DnM (a traditional Chinese medicine with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties) in the treatment of ADs, elucidating its regulatory effects on immune cells and key signaling pathways. This work aims to provide a comprehensive phytopharmacological perspective for advancing ADs therapy and research.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic search was conducted across seven databases to analyze, compare, and review relevant studies. A comprehensive literature review was performed on the chemical components, quality control, clinical observations, pharmacological mechanisms, and toxicology of DnM, and DnM was compared to popular drug treatment strategies.
RESULTS: DnM and its bioactive constituents (notably dioscin, Diosgenin and Total Saponins of Rhizoma Dioscorea Nipponica (TSDN)) modulate T lymphocyte proliferation, regulate the TLR4/NF-κB pathway, suppress the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6), and bidirectionally regulate apoptosis through Fas/FasL and Bcl-2/Bax pathways (depending on disease-specific microenvironments in ADs). DnM demonstrates significant therapeutic efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune thyroiditis, psoriasis, and systemic lupus erythematosus, alleviating symptoms, delaying disease progression, and exhibiting a favorable safety profile.
CONCLUSION: DnM exerts multi-target effects by modulating key inflammatory and apoptotic pathways in ADs. The NF-κB, STAT3, and TGF-β/Smad signaling pathways may serve as key targets for DnM in modulating inflammatory states in ADs, while Fas/FasL and Bax/Bcl-2 are potential mediators of its apoptosis-regulating effects. Clinical evidence supports its efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), highlighting its multi-faceted therapeutic potential. This review systematically summarizes DnM's clinical outcomes, mechanisms, and toxicological profile, however, large-scale randomized controlled trials are required to validate its therapeutic potential across diverse ADs. Collectively, this work underscores DnM's promise as a candidate for AD therapeutics.
