Exploring The Mechanism Of Radix Rhei Et Rhizome Intervention In Intracerebral Hemorrhage Based On Systematic Pharmacology And Proteomics Strategy

Objective: To explore the mechanism of Radix Rhei Et Rhizome (Dahuang, DH) intervention in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) based on systematic pharmacology and proteomics strategy.Methods: The systematic pharmacological strategies were utilized to find the bioactive compounds of Radix Rhei Et Rhizome, predict its potential targets, and collect ICH's disease genes; then, the Cytoscape 3.7.1 software was applied for network construction and network topology analysis. After that, in-depth analysis of the proteomics data of Radix Rhei Et Rhizome intervention in ICH was performed to complement and validate the results of systematic pharmacological predictions.Results: A total of three major networks were constructed in the present study: (1) compound-compound target network of Radix Rhei Et Rhizome, (2) DH-ICH PPI network, (3) proteomics proteins' PPI network. These three major networks have been analyzed by network topology, and several small networks derived (such as signaling pathway networks). The enrichment analysis showed that Radix Rhei Et Rhizome can intervene in several biological process (such as inflammation, smooth muscle proliferation, platelet activation, blood pressure regulation, angiogenesis, hypoxia, and inflammatory response of leukocytes), signaling pathway (such as FoxO signaling pathway, complement and coagulation cascades, cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, and Rap1 signaling pathway), and reactome pathway (such as signaling by interleukins, interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling, nuclear receptor transcription pathway, and platelet activation).Conclusion: Radix Rhei Et Rhizome may intervene in ICH-related biological process, signaling pathway, and reactome pathway found in this research so as to achieve the effect of treating ICH related injuries.
