Objective To explore the potential active components and mechanism of action of licorice in the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) by using network pharmacology method and molecular docking technology.Methods The chemical components of licorice were collected from TCMSID database combined with related literatures from September 2021 to April 2022, and were screened according to their properties such as target selectivity, druggability and potential toxicity. The potential targets of these components werepredicted through four target prediction platforms of SEA, SwissTargetPrediction, PPB2, and TargetNet platform and outputted predicted targets from different platforms were standardized and integrated by Python package. The AD related targets were extracted fromOMIM and GeneCards5.0 databases. Through matching AD targets and predicted targets of licorice components, a "traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) -component-target" network was constructed using the Cytoscape 3.9.0 software, and then the active components oflicorice and their potential targets against AD were obtained. The Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis of potential targets of licorice against AD were applied using DAVID V6.8 database and then a"TCM-target-pathway" network was constructed. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was established using String database and Cytoscape 3.9.0 software. Through integrating the "TCM-component-target" network, the "TCM-target-pathway" network and PPI network, a "TCM-component-target-pathway" network was obtained, and then core targets of licorice against AD were derived. The active components of licorice against AD were docked into the core targets using MOE software.Results A total of 29 active components of licorice and 47 potential anti-AD targets were identified in this study. The "TCM-component-target" network showed that licochal cone C, formononetin, isoliquiritigenin, isoliquiritigenin, glycyrrhizic acid, etc., were the important active ingredients of licorice. TheGO functional enrichment analysis demonstrated that the mechanisms of licorice against AD involved 217 items of biological process,29 items of cell composition and 45 items of molecular function. The "TCM-target-pathway" network indicated that HIF-1 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway, etc., were the potential pathways of licorice against AD. According to the "TCM-component-target-pathway" network, 22 potential core targets were obtained, including TNF, AKT1, VEGFA, STAT3, EGFR, etc. The molecular docking study suggested that 29 licorice active components exhibited good binding affinities and interaction patternswith those core targets.Conclusion Licorice treating AD followed a "multi-component,multi-target, multi-pathway" diagram. Its poten tial effective components of licorice are licochalcone C, isoliquiritigenin, glycyrrhizic acid, etc. Its potential mechanism of action against AD may be related to HIF-1 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway and NF-κB signaling pathway, and TNF, AKT1, IL-2, PTGS2, EGFR targets. |
