【Abstract】 OBJECTIVE:1.Explore the effects of different compatibility ratios of Drug pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri on lipid metabolism in NAFLD rats.2.Explore the material basis and potential targets of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri for the treatment of NAFLD,3.Reveal the mechanism of action of stigmasterol(the active ingredient of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri)in the treatment of NAFLD by regulating the PPARγ一UCP-1 signaling pathway.4.Explain the molecular mechanism of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri in the treatment of NAFLD.METHOD:1.48 Wistar rats were randomly divided into a normal group(group C)with 8 rats and a modeling group with 40 rats.Group C was given normal feed and 0.9%NaCl solution by gavage,and the modeling group was given high-fat and high-sugar feed and 0.9%NaCl solution by gavage.After the model was successfully built,the model rats were randomly divided into model group(group M),Drug pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri 1:1 group(CR1:1 group),Drug pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri 1:2.5 group(CR1:2.5 group),Drug pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri 2.5:1 group(CR2.5:1 group),obeticholic acid group(OB group),8 rats in each group.Each medication group was given high-fat and high-sugar feed and corresponding drugs by gavage.After the intervention of each group,the rats were weighed,Liver weight,observe pathological staining,detect liver function and blood lipids.2.Use the TCMSP database to obtain the active ingredients of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri,combine PubChem and SwissTargetPrediction database to predict the potential targets of the active ingredients of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri,and establish a network of active ingredients of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri and target.3.Obtain NAFLD related targets from the DisGeNET database.Through Venny analysis,the intersection target of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri on active ingredients and NAFLD was obtained.4.PPI analysis,GO function analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis are carried out for the intersection target.The key targets were obtained through comprehensive evaluation,and the network of active ingredients and key action targets of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri was established.5.In order to predict the potential binding activity of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri to active ingredients and key targets,molecular docking experiments were carried out using Autoduck Vina tools.6.The NAFLD cell model was established,and experiments were performed with low-dose(30μM)and high-dose(60μM)stigmasterol intervention in HepG2 cells.HepG2 cells were divided into blank control group(group C),model group(group M),lowdose stigmasterol group(group L)and high-dose stigmasterol group(group H).Oil red O staining and Nile red staining were used to observe the pathological changes.Detect biochemical indicators TG.Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of PPARγ,CPT-2 and UCP-1.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of PPARγ,CPT-2 and UCP-1.Use immunofluorescence technology to detect the protein fluorescence level of PPARγ.7.The Crisper cas9 technology was used to construct a HepG2 cell model of PPARγ knockout.HepG2 cells knocked out of PPARγwere divided into PPARγ-/-group and PPARγ-/-+ stigmasterol group.Oil red O staining and Nile red staining were used to observe the pathological changes.Detect biochemical indicators TG.Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of PPARγ and UCP-1.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of PPARγ and UCP-1.RESULT:1.Compared with group C,alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),cholesterol(TC),triacylglycerol(TG)increased,liver steatosis and inflammation aggravated in group M of rats.Compared with group M,the lipid metabolism of each medication group was improved to a certain extent.Comparison between medication groups,the body weight,liver weight,TC,ALT,AST,steatosis and inflammation scores of the CR 2.5:1 group decreased significantly compared with the other two groups.The drug effect is the best when the compatibility is 2.5:1;compared with the OB group,the body mass level of CR 2.5:1 group decreased significantly,while the liver weight,TC,AST and inflammation score was not as significant as that of OB group.2.The network of active ingredients and core target points of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri shows that stigmasterol is one of the common active ingredients of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri.The results of molecular docking predict that stigmasterol and PPARγ have potential binding activity,and the activation of PPARγ can improve NAFLD.3.Oil red O staining showed that compared with group C,there were more pigmented lipid droplets in HepG2 cells in group M,and the rate of lipid change was significantly higher than that in group C compared with the visual field.The lipid droplet deposition was improved after stigmasterol treatment.The results of Nile red staining showed that compared with group C,the lipid content in the cells of group M was higher,and the stigmasterol treatment was significantly improved.Compared with group C,the TG content of cells in group M increased(P<0.01);after stigmasterol treatment,the TG content decreased significantly(P<0.01).Real-time PCR results showed that compared with group C,the levels of PPARγ,CPT-2 and UCP-1 mRNA in group M were significantly reduced(P<0.05).After stigmasterol treatment,PPARγ,CPT-2,and UCP-1 mRNA levels were up-regulated.(P<0.05).Western blot results showed that compared with group C,the protein levels of PPARγ,CPT-2,and UCP-1 in group M were significantly down-regulated(P<0.05).After stigmasterol intervention,the protein levels of PPARγ and UCP-1 were significantly increased(P<0.05),while the level of CPT-2 protein did not change significantly(P>0.05).Immunofluorescence results showed that compared with group C,the fluorescence intensity of PPARγ protein in group M decreased significantly(P<0.05).After stigmasterol intervention,the fluorescence intensity of PPARγ protein increased significantly(P<0.05),and PPARγ was activated by stigmasterol.4.After knocking down the PPARγ of HepG2 cells,the PPARγ-/-cell line was constructed.Oil red O staining showed that compared with the PPARγ-/-group,the PPARγ-/-+stigmasterol group showed no significant changes in the deposition of colored lipid droplets in the cells,and there was no significant difference in the rate of lipid change in the same visual field.The results of Nile Red staining showed that compared with the PPARγ-/-group,the lipid content in the Nile Red staining of the PPARγ-/-+ stigmasterol group did not change significantly.Compared with the PPARγ-/-group,the PPARγ-/-+stigmasterol group had no significant changes in TG content.Real-time PCR results showed that compared with the PPARγ-/-group,the PPARγ and UCP-1mRNA levels of the PPARγ/-+stigmasterol group did not change significantly(P>0.05).Western blot results showed that compared with the PPARγ-/-group,the PPARγ and UCP-1 protein levels in the PPARγ-/-+stigmasterol group did not change significantly(P>0.05).The immunofluorescence results showed that compared with the PPARγ/-group,the PPARγ protein fluorescence intensity of the PPARγ-/-+stigmasterol group did not change significantly(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:1.Drug pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri can improve the glucose and lipid metabolism of NAFLD rats,and the best compatibility ratio of Radix Bupleuri to Radix Ginseng is 2.5:1.2.Through network pharmacology and molecular docking technology,the mechanism of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri in the treatment of NAFLD focuses on the effect of stigmasterol on PPARγ.3.Stigmasterol improves lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells and reduces TG levels.After knocking out PPARγ,the effect of stigmasterol on lipid metabolism of HepG2 cells was reversed.4.Stigmasterol improves lipid metabolism through the PPARγ—UCP-1 signaling pathway,which may be one of the mechanisms of herb pair of Radix Ginseng and Radix Bupleuri in the treatment of NAFLD.
