基于“中药作用机理辅助解析系统”的四逆散抗抑郁作用机制研究

四逆散作为调和肝脾的经典名方,临床上广泛用于治疗肝郁气滞引起的各种疾病,且疗效显著。近年来发现四逆散在神经系统疾病治疗上有效,如抑郁症。但是,目前四逆散抗抑郁症机制还不是很清楚,该文采用网络药理学方法和"中药作用机理辅助解析系统"研究四逆散方剂,探索其多成分-多靶点-抑郁症相互作用关系。结果显示,四逆散的315个化学成分中有263个能够作用于抑郁症的19个靶点,通过调控第二信使G-蛋白偶联受体转导通路、cAMP环核苷酸系统、神经系统及其递质、免疫炎症反应、神经内分泌、钙离子及其他离子转运等多途径、多靶点发挥抗抑郁作用。这些结果为四逆散抗抑郁症的机制研究及探讨抑郁症治疗提供了有价值的线索。

Study on mechanism for anti-depression efficacy of Sini San through auxiliary mechanism elucidation system for Chinese medicine

As regulating the function of the liver and spleen of the famous traditional formula, Sini San is widely used in the treatment of various diseases caused by liver depression and Qi stagnation, and its efficacy is significant clinically. Recently it is discovered that Sini San is effective in the treatment of nervous system diseases such as depression. Furthermore, there is a lot of literature about the effect of Sini San on the molecular mechanism of antidepressant. However, the anti-depression mechanism of Sini San is not very clear, in our present study, based on the auxiliary mechanism elucidation system for Chinese medicine and network pharmacology system to construct the chemical ingredients of the target interactions and disease-related protein of the interaction network. Results show that there are 263 chemical ingredients and 19 corresponding targets of depression in Sini San network. Sini San can anti-depressant effect through G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway, cAMP system, neurological system process and neurotransmitter secretion, inflammatory response, neuroendocrine, metal ion transport and so on. These studies provided valuable clues for the mechanism and treatment of anti-depressant.
