Deoxynivalenol is a widespread feed contaminant that leads to vomit, which results in serious symptom such as increased intestinal permeability and even intestinal mucosal necrosis. Recent studies have reported the role of quercetin in alleviating deoxynivalenol-induced intestinal injury; however, the mechanisms and targets remain unclear. Thus, we aimed to identify the mechanisms of action by using a combination of network pharmacology and molecular docking. We identified 151 quercetin targets, 235 deoxynivalenol targets and 47 porcine intestinal injury targets by searching compound database and PubMed database, among which there were two common targets. The PPI network showed that the key proteins involved are NQO1 and PPAR-γ. The PPI network showed that the key proteins involved were NQO1 and PPARG. GO analysis found that genes were enriched primarily in response to oxidative stress. The PPI network showed that the key proteins involved are NQO1 and PPAR-γ. The genes are enriched primarily in response to oxidative stress. KEGG analysis showed enrichment of the HIF, reactive oxygen species and other signaling pathways. The molecular docking results indicated key binding activity between NQO1–quercetin and PPAR-γ–quercetin. By using network pharmacology, we have revealed the potential molecular mechanisms by which quercetin alleviates deoxynivalenol-induced porcine intestinal injury, which lays the foundation for the development of drugs to treat deoxynivalenol-induced intestinal injury in pigs.
为探讨黄芩素治疗猪链球菌脑膜炎的分子机制,应用网络药理学的方法,在Pubchem和SwissTarget Prediction数据库获取黄芩素490个潜在作用靶点,并在NCBI等平台中检索猪链球菌脑膜炎的靶点.运用STRING数据库构建"中药-疾病"共同靶点的PPI网络图;利用DAVID数据库进行GO功能注释和KEGG通路富集分析,并使用Cytoscape3.8.2软件构建"中药-靶点"通路图.结果显示黄芩素和猪链球菌脑膜炎有9个共同靶点(MMP2、SYK、FN1、MAPK14、HSPCB、CASP3、CCL2、APOD、EGFR),其中MMP2、SYK和FN1是脑损伤的核心靶点.GO富集分析发现,黄芩素可能通过影响细胞凋亡的调控过程、细胞外间隙、细胞氧化应激的过程缓解猪链球菌脑膜炎的症状;KEGG通路主要富集在IL-17信号通路、MAPK信号通路等41条相关通路.基于网络药理学的结果,本研究探讨了黄芩素潜在治疗链球菌引起的脑膜炎的作用,推测该中药成分可以作为开发抗猪链球菌疾病的先导化合物,为开发治疗猪链球菌病的药物奠定研究基础.

Objective To study the detection on DNA damage by single cell gel clectrophoresis assay technology during rats'neural tube defect process.Methods Twenty pregnant rats were randomly divided into control group and NTDs model group according to their weight.On the 13 d of gestation,the pregnant rats of the model group were given cyclophsphamide 12.5 mg/(kg·bw) via intraperitoneal administration,the control group was given 0.3 ml N.S in the same way.On the 14 d of gestation,two rats of each group were executed.The DNA damage of three embryo's brain tissue in each pregnant rat was checked through single-cell gel electrophoresis technology.Furthermore,influence factors of SCGE were analyzed.Results Comet cells were found in the model group but were not found in control group.The comet cells showed small head and big tail.Tail length of comet cells in model group [(16.35±5.59)μm] was longer significantly than that of neuron cells in control group [(7.28+1.76)μm].Ratio of abnormity in model group(67%) was significantly increased(P<0.05) and the developmental index was significantly decreased in model group(P<0.05).There were some factors affecting the experiment including concentration of cell suspension and gel,time of split as well as fluorescent staining.Conclusion DNA damage in NTDs can be checked by single cell gel electrophoresis assay technology.Besides,some details should be emphasize in order to improve the sensitivity and specificity.
