Evaluation of the Mechanism of Action of Rosemary Volatile Oil in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease Using Gas Chromatography -mass Spectrometry Analysis and Network Pharmacology.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the active components and mechanism of action of rosemary volatile oil for treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) using network pharmacology.

Methods: We obtained the constituents of the rosemary volatile oil by searching Chinese herbal systemic pharmacological databases and analytical platforms and constructed the constituent-target networks by predicting and screening the action targets of the rosemary volatile oil constituents using SwissTargetPrediction, metaTarFisher, and Pubchem. We obtained the AD-related targets using the Genecards, OMIM, and DisGeNET databases and constructed the protein-protein interaction networks (PPI) using the STRING database in Venny 2.

Valerian essential oil for treating insomnia the serotonergic synapse pathway.

Valerian volatile oil can be used in the treatment of insomnia; however, the active components and mechanisms of action are currently unclear. Therefore, we used transcriptome sequencing and weight coefficient network pharmacology to predict the effective components and mechanism of action of valerian volatile oil in an insomnia model induced by intraperitoneal injection of para-Chlorophenylalanine (PCPA) in SD rats. Valerian essential oil was given orally for treatment and the contents of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1 A (5-HT1AR), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and protein kinase A (PKA) in the hippocampus of rats in each group were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blot, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and immunohistochemistry.

The Mechanism Action of German Chamomile () in the Treatment of Eczema: Based on Dose-Effect Weight Coefficient Network Pharmacology.

To determine the active ingredients in German chamomile volatile oil and the mechanism of action in the treatment of eczema, this study used two parameters (ingredient content and oil-water partition coefficient) and established a new network pharmacology method based on the dose-effect weight coefficient. Through the new network pharmacology method, we found that German chamomile volatile oil regulated T-cell lymphatic subpopulations to inhibit the Th17 cell differentiation signaling pathway. This resulted in a reduction of interleukin 17 (IL-17), thereby inhibiting the activation of the nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-κB) and MAPK pathways, decreasing the secretion of the pro-inflammatory factors (tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6)), and reducing inflammation.

Mechanism of Action of Nicotiflorin from in the Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction: From Network Pharmacology to Experimental Pharmacology.

Purpose: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a cardiovascular disease with a high fatality rate. In this study, we combined network pharmacology and experimental pharmacology and discovered the potential mechanism of action and the active ingredients of the lily, was discovered. The monomer compound with stronger activity was discovered through in vitro cell experiments.

Mechanism of allergic rhinitis treated by from different geographic areas.

Context: The coriander plant (L.) A. Braun et Aschers (Compositae) is used for the treatment of allergic rhinitis.

The Mechanism of Lavender Essential Oil in the Treatment of Acute Colitis Based on "Quantity-Effect" Weight Coefficient Network Pharmacology.

This study aimed to introduce a new weight coefficient combined with network pharmacology to predict the potential active components, action targets, and signal pathways of lavender essential oil and to investigate the therapeutic effect of lavender essential oil on colitis through animal experiments. The component targets of lavender essential oil were mined from the Pubchem and SwissTargetPrediction databases, and the relative content of lavender essential oil was compared with OB (oral bioavailability) to establish a "quantity-effect" weight coefficient. Online databases such as GeneCards and String were used to construct a "lavender essential oil compound target disease target" network to extract the key targets of core compounds acting on diseases.

Action mechanism of Roman chamomile in the treatment of anxiety disorder based on network pharmacology.

Anxiety disorder is a common psychiatric disease. Roman chamomile as medicine or tea has long been used as a mild tranquilizer to reduce anxiety, but the mechanism is unclear. This research is based on network pharmacology combined with database mining to find the ingredients, action pathways and key targets of Roman chamomile for the treatment of anxiety.

A Study on the Mechanism of Lavender in the Treatment of Insomnia Based on Network Pharmacology.

Aims And Objective: The common disease of insomnia has complex and diverse clinical manifestations. Lavender represents an effective treatment of insomnia, but the molecular mechanism underlying the effectiveness of this treatment is not clear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the active components, target proteins and molecular pathways of lavender in the treatment of insomnia, thus explaining its possible mechanism.
