Objective To explore the pharmacological mechanism of the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) herbal pair of Rhizomacoptidis and Artemisia capillaris in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG) based on the network pharmacology and molecular docking.Methods The active ingredients, targets and molecular structures of the TCM herbal pair of Rhizomacoptidis and Artemisia capillaris searched in the traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform(TCMSP). The targets of CAG were searched in the GeneCards, the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database(CTD) and the Therapeutic Target Database(TTD). Using the Cytoscape, a protein-protein interaction(PPI) network and a drug-ingredient-target-disease network diagram were established by introducing the intersections of the targets of both the TCM herbal pair of Rhizomacoptidis and Artemisia capillaris, and CAG. The common active ingredients and targets were obtained by a cluster analysis on the two networks, which were further subjected to GO and KEGG enrichment analyses using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery(DAVID). Finally, molecular docking of the common active ingredients and targets was performed using the AutoDock and PyMOL. Results A total of 26 active ingredients were screened from the TCM herbal pair of Rhizomacoptidis and Artemisia capillaris, with 86 corresponding targets. A total of 639 targets of CAG were identified. Taking the intersection, a total of 38 targets were finally obtained. The core components are quercetin, isorhamnetin, β-sitosterol, etc Among them, interleukin 6(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor(TNF), Jun(Jun proto-oncogene) and others were above the average degree. GO enrichment analysis yielded 98 biological processes(BP), including the positive regulations of the transcription of RNA polymerase II promoter, nitric oxide biosynthesis and gene expressions; 21 cell components(CC), including extracellular space, extracellular region and cell surface; and 18 molecular functions(MF), including enzyme binding, transcription factor binding and cytokine activity. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis obtained 54 pathways that were significantly enriched in the intersected targets, including cancer signaling pathways, TNF signaling pathway, and mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) signaling pathway. Molecular docking data revealed an acceptable binding between the compounds and targets, that was favorable to form a stable structure. Conclusion Multiple active ingredients of the TCM herbal pair of Rhizomacoptidis and Artemisia capillaris are able to inhibit the aggravation of CAG to gastric cancer via multiple targets and signaling pathways, which may even reverse the atrophy.

Background: Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) can cause chronic gastritis and other digestive tract diseases, and represents a public health concern. Current anti-H. pylori treatment can result in antibiotic resistance and other adverse reactions. Huangqi Jianzhong decoction (HQJZD) is a prescription form of traditional Chinese medicine for chronic gastritis that increases probiotics and inhibits H. pylori. In this study, its anti-bacterial activity against H. pylori receives a preliminary evaluation, and a pharmacology analysis is performed to predict its underlying mechanisms. Methods: Human GES-1 cells are divided into a blank control group, a model group, a HQJZD low-dose (2.08 mg·mL−1), a high-dose group (4.16 mg·mL−1), and a positive control group (amoxicillin, 5 μg·mL−1). After culture, the CCK-8 method is used to detect cell viability; flow cytometry is used to detect cell apoptosis rate; and RT-qPCR is used to detect the expression of mRNA virulence factors, including HpPrtC, OPiA, IceA1, and BabA2. Network pharmacology analysis and molecular docking were performed to explore the mechanisms of HQJZD in treating H. pylori gastritis, based on its anti-H. pylori infection effect. Results: We noted lower cell survival rates in the model group, but higher apoptosis rates and mRNA expressions of HpPrtC, OPiA, IceA1, and BabA2 than in the control group (p < 0.05). Compared to the model group, the cell survival rate of each dosage group of Huangqi Jianzhong decoction and the positive control group increased significantly, while the apoptosis rate and the mRNA expressions of HpPrtC, OPiA, IceA1, and BabA2 were decreased significantly. The effect in each HQJZD group was dose-dependent (p < 0.05). Network pharmacological analysis involving 159 signaling pathways was used to screen 6 key active components of HQJZD and 102 potential target proteins for the treatment of H. pylori-related gastritis. The molecular docking results revealed that the 6 active compounds had a strong binding ability with the target proteins of ALB, IL-6, AKT1, IL-1B, and JUN. Conclusion: HQJZD effectively increases the proliferation rate of human GES-1 cells after infection, while reducing the level of apoptosis. The mechanism may be related to multiple components, multiple targets and pathways, which provides a scientific basis for further elucidating the mechanism of action, the pharmacodynamic material basis, and the clinical application of HQJZD against H. pylori infection.
