Background: Rosenroot (Rhodiola rosea) is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine. It has been used to treat patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Salidroside is the main active constituent of rosenroot. This study was designed to explore the mechanism of salidroside in treating CAD and its role in angiogenesis in CAD systematically.

Methods: In this study, potential targets related to salidroside and CAD were obtained from public databases. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Disease Ontology (DO) and CellMarker enrichment analyses were performed. The binding of salidroside to angiogenesis-related targets was assessed by PyMOL and Ligplot. Furthermore, the effects of salidroside on collateral circulation were evaluated by correlation analysis of these angiogenesis-related targets with the coronary flow index (CFI), and the influence of salidroside on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation and migration was assessed.

Results: Eighty-three targets intersected between targets of salidroside and CAD. GO and KEGG analyses indicated that salidroside mainly treated CAD through angiogenesis and anti-inflammatory action. There were 12 angiogenesis-related targets of salidroside in coronary heart disease, among which FGF1 (r = 0.237, P = 2.597E-3), KDR (r = 0.172, P = 3.007E-2) and HIF1A (r = -0.211, P = 7.437E-3) were correlated with the coronary flow index (CFI), and salidroside docked well with them. Finally, cell experiments confirmed that salidroside promoted the proliferation and migration of HUVECs.

Conclusions: This study revealed the potential molecular mechanism of salidroside on angiogenesis in CAD and provided new ideas for the clinical application of salidroside in the treatment of CAD.

Phenylethanoid glycosides (PhGs) are widely occurring secondary metabolites of medicinal plants with interesting biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, antiviral, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, etc. They are characterized by a structural core formed by a phenethyl alcohol, usually tyrosol or hydroxytyrosol, attached to β-D-glucopyranose via a glycosidic bond. This core is usually further decorated by attached phenolic acids or another saccharide.

Salidroside is a phenylpropanoid glycoside with wide applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries; however, the plant genus Rhodiola, the natural source of salidroside, has slow growth and limited distribution. In this study, we designed a novel six-enzyme biocatalytic cascade for the efficient production of salidroside, utilizing cost-effective bio-based L-Tyrosine as the starting material. A preliminary analysis revealed that the poor thermostability of the Bacillus licheniformis UDP-glycosyltransferase (EC 2.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major medical challenge due to its high incidence and poor prognosis. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), although extensively studied in the treatment of HCC and other solid tumors, has limited application as a first-line therapy for HCC due to its resistance and significant inter-patient variability. To address these issues, researchers have explored drug repurposing.
