| Abstract | Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease with serious effects on patients and Ligusticum chuanxiong (CX) has a certain curative effect on osteoarthritis in traditional Chinese medicine therapy. This study is based on network pharmacology and molecular docking technology to explore its potential mechanism. Methods: Components of Ligusticum chuanxiong treat osteoarthritis was screened in TCMSP database and targets was predicted by PharmMapper database, the osteoarthritis targets were collected in GeneCards database, the intersection genes were the possible targets of CX anti- OA. STRING database and Cytoscape software were utilized for protein-protein interaction analysis and further screening of core targets. Metascape database was used for the KEGG and GO enrichment analysis. Then, top 10 pathways were selected to construct "drug-compound-target-pathway-disease" network analysis. Finally, molecular docking was used to analyze the binding affinity of 7 compounds with core targets and TNF-α. Results: 7 compounds with 253 non repetitive targets of CX were screened from TCMSP database and 60 potential intersection targets of CX anti- OA were found. PPI network analysis showed that the core targets were ALB, AKT1, IGF1, CASP3, MAPK1, ANXA5, MAPK14, etc, while GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the relevant biological processes involved in the treatment of osteoarthritis by CX might include MAPK cascade and reactive oxygen species metabolic process, etc. The KEGG pathway analysis result was mainly associated with MAPK signaling pathway and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway etc. We further docked 7 ingredients with MAPK1 and MAPK14 enriched in MAPK pathway, and TNF-α as the typical inflammatory cytokine. The results also showed good binding affinity, especially FA, which maybe the most important component of CX anti-OA. Conclusion: Our research revealed the potential mechanism of CX in the treatment of OA, and our findings can also pave the way for the subsequent basic experimental verification and the research direction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
