基于网络药理学研究健脾贴治疗小儿功能性消化不良的作用机制

Pharmacological mechanism of Jianpi Patch for the treatment of pediatric functional dyspepsia based on network pharmacology

  • 摘要: 本研究采用微透析取样-高分辨气质联用技术分析了健脾贴透皮成分,结合药效学、网络药理学与分子对接,探讨其穴位(神阙、中脘)贴敷治疗功能性消化不良的作用及机制。药效学研究显示,与模型组相比,健脾贴高剂量组大鼠血清中GAS、MTL水平显著升高,GIP、SS水平显著降低;高、低剂量组穴位皮肤肥大细胞数量明显减少,胃窦黏膜炎性细胞浸润改善,穴位皮肤SP蛋白表达显著降低。通过高分辨气质联用技术共鉴定出66种透皮成分,主要为萜类和烃类。网络药理学筛选出350个药物靶点,与3261个疾病靶点取交集得到197个共同靶点,构建“成分-靶点”网络,显示Myrtenyl acetate、Cyclohexyl acetate、(-)-Verbenone、Eugenol等可能为活性成分。通过蛋白质相互作用网络分析得到核心靶点,包括SRC、ESR1、JUN、AKT1、CTNNB1、MAPK3、PIK3R1等,KEGG富集分析显示主要涉及PI3K-Akt等通路。分子对接显示核心成分与核心靶点具有良好的结合活性;免疫组织化学结果显示健脾贴可上调胃窦中PIK3R1、PI3K、AKT、c-Kit蛋白表达,下调EGFR、GFAP表达。本研究结果提示,健脾贴可能通过参与调节P物质等胃肠神经递质的信号传递、调控PI3K-Akt等信号通路来改善小儿功能性消化不良。

     

    Abstract: This study employed microdialysis sampling coupled with high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze the transdermal components of Jianpi Patch (JPT), and combined pharmacodynamics, network pharmacology, and molecular docking to investigate the effects and mechanisms of its acupoint (Shenque and Zhongwan) application in the treatment of pediatric functional dyspepsia (PFD). Pharmacodynamic results showed that compared with the model group, the high-dose JPT group exhibited significant increases in serum gastrin (GAS) and motilin (MTL) levels, as well as significant decreases in gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and somatostatin (SS) levels. In both high- and low-dose JPT groups, mast cell counts in acupoint skin were markedly reduced, inflammatory cell infiltration in the gastric antrum mucosa was alleviated, and substance P (SP) expression in acupoint skin was decreased. A total of 66 transdermal components were identified by high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, mainly terpenoids and hydrocarbons. Network pharmacology screened 350 drug targets, which intersected with 3, 261 FD-related targets to yield 197 common targets. A component–target network was constructed, identifying myrtenyl acetate, cyclohexyl acetate, (−)-verbenone, and eugenol as potential active ingredients. Protein–protein interaction network analysis identified hub targets including SRC, ESR1, JUN, AKT1, CTNNB1, MAPK3, and PIK3R1. KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that these targets were mainly involved in the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and other pathways. Molecular docking showed good binding affinity between the core components and hub targets. Immunohistochemistry confirmed that JPT upregulated the protein expression of PIK3R1, PI3K, AKT, and c-Kit, and downregulated EGFR and GFAP expression in the gastric antrum. The findings of this study suggest that JPT may improve PFD by participating in the regulation of signal transmission of gastrointestinal neurotransmitters such as substance P and by modulating signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt.
