| Core Tip |
Kushenol I (KSCI) from Sophora flavescens shows promise for treating ulcerative colitis (UC). Network pharmacology reveals 192 potential targets, including protein kinase B, NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3, Toll-like receptor 4, phosphoinositide 3-kinase and forkhead box O1. In UC mice, KSCI alleviates symptoms, reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines, enhances anti-inflammatory activity, and inhibits the activation of key signaling pathways. It also exerts antioxidant effects, repairs intestinal barrier damage, and modulates the gut microbiota. Additionally, KSCI regulates T-cell balance. These findings highlight KSCI’s multi-target mechanism offering potential as a therapeutic agent for UC. |
