Exploring the Hepatoprotective Effect of Agaricus bisporus Based on Network Pharmacology by WANG Jie, WANG Jinmei, LIU Hui, LIU Xuguang, GUO Wenjing, HE Hongping

“…These results confirmed the predictions, indicating that ABEE might exert its hepatoprotective effect by regulating the expression of Bcl-2, MYC, NF-κB1 and RELA through salicylic acid, palmitic acid, linolenic acid, and chrysin, as well as their associated signaling pathways such as chemical carcinogenesis-receptor activation. This study suggests that ABEE may provide liver protection by inhibiting apoptosis, carcinogenesis, and lipid peroxidation caused by free radicals through multiple components, targets, and pathways.…”
