Serum Pharmacochemistry and Network Pharmacology Reveal Active Compounds and Mechanisms of the Huaxian Formula in Alleviating Radiation-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis by Gong C, Chen J, Zou P, Fang Z, Quan L, Wang J, Yin J, Lin B, Lang J, Chen M

“…The Huaxian formula (HXF), a traditional Chinese herbal remedy, shows promise in alleviating RIPF; however, its active ingredients and underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.Methods: Through serum pharmacochemistry, network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental validation, we investigate the potential mechanisms of HXF in the prevention and treatment of radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF).Results: Histological examination and non-invasive computed tomography (CT) scans in animal experiments revealed that HXF improved extracellular matrix collagen deposition in the lung tissue of irradiated mice and reduced fibrosis manifestations on CT images. Analysis of post-HXF administration serum samples identified 21 enriched compounds as potential active compounds, with 430 corresponding prospective targets. …”
