Core Tip |
Infection with Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) is associated with severe digestive diseases, while successful eradication of this pathogen is known to prevent the occurrence of peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has unique advantages for treating H. pylori infection, which can reduce drug resistance and increase the eradication rate of H. pylori. Here, we attempt to identify medication rules, effective materials, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of TCM against H. pylori using data mining, in vivo experiment, and network pharmacology. Coptis, Pinellia, and Scutellaria (CPS) was identified as the core drug combination for H. pylori eradication.We evidenced that CPS can eradicated H. pylori, alleviated the gastric pathology, and reduced circulating TNF-α and IL-1β levels. Nine key compounds and nine hub target proteins were further determined as the key active ingredients and therapeutic targets of CPS against H. pylori respectively. Altogether, our data strongly suggest that the efficacy of CPS in the treatment of H. pylori is worthy of affirmation. |
