Sumario: | This study aimed to explore the effectiveness and safety of Sishen pills for the treatment of diarrheal diabetic enteropathy (DDE). The Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Systems Pharmacology and BATMAN-TCM databases were used to determine the chemical composition of Sishen pills and thus predict information on protein targets. We searched for potential targets of DDE in the GeneCards, DrugBank, Therapeutic Target (TTD), and DisGeNET databases. Using the intersection of the drug and disease targets, protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks and molecular interaction modules were constructed, and key targets were screened. The intersecting gene targets were imported into the Metascape database to conduct Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses. The core targets and active ingredients were then docked at the molecular level. Sishen pills contain 70 active ingredients, 463 targets, and 566 disease targets. A module analysis of the targets revealed that the module was mainly related to adrenergic receptor activity, the adenosine phosphate kinase signaling pathway, and the G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. The GO and KEGG pathway enrichment results indicated that the protein genes regulated by Sishen pills were mainly enriched in the response to lipopolysaccharides, the AMPK signaling pathway, the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, and other signaling pathways. The molecular docking results showed that the core active compounds exhibited good binding activity with the predicted targets. Sishen pills can regulate the immune function of the body through anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects for the treatment of DDE. |
