Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs) is a pattern recognition receptor that connects innate and adaptive immunity and participates in inflammatory responses play a key role in common autoimmune diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), psoriasis, and Sjögren's syndrome (SS) by participating in antigen recognition, immune cell activation, and inflammatory factor release. Due to the multi-component and multi-target characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the role of TCM active ingredients acting on TLRs has been widely studied. This article describes the relationship between TLR and four autoimmune diseases, as well as a review of the efficacy of TLR intervention by active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine.

Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) pose significant challenges in clinical settings, particularly due to their high morbidity and mortality rates. The rising incidence of these infections, coupled with increasing antifungal resistance, underscores the urgent need for novel therapeutic strategies. Current antifungal drugs target the fungal cell membrane, cell wall, or intracellular components, but resistance mechanisms such as altered drug-target interactions, enhanced efflux, and adaptive cellular responses have diminished their efficacy.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) causes significant morbidity and mortality globally. Most of the chemicals specifically target certain pathways and minimally impact other diseases associated with ASCVD. Moreover, interactions of these drugs can cause toxic reactions.

-associated gastritis (HPAG) is a common condition of the gastrointestinal tract. However, extensive and long-term antibiotic use has resulted in numerous adverse effects, including increased resistance, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and increased recurrence rates. When these concerns develop, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) may have advantages.

Deconvoluting drug targets is crucial in modern drug development, yet both traditional and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven methods face challenges in terms of completeness, accuracy, and efficiency. Identifying drug targets, especially within complex systems such as the p53 pathway, remains a formidable task. The regulation of this pathway by myriad stress signals and regulatory elements adds layers of complexity to the discovery of effective p53 pathway activators.
