Network Pharmacology Combined With Metabolomics Reveals the Mechanism of Yangxuerongjin Pill Against Type 2 Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy in Rats by Jin R, Pei H, Yue F, Zhang X, Zhang Z, Xu Y, Li J

“…YXRJP can prolong the TWL, increase the MNCV of the sciatic nerve, alleviate the injury of the sciatic nerve, reduce the levels of triglyceride (TG), improve the expression of Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) protein in the sciatic nerve, and reduce the expression of protein kinase B (AKT) protein. Metabolomics results showed that the potential metabolic pathways of YXRJP in the treatment of DPN mainly involved amino acid metabolism such as arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, lipid metabolism and nucleotide metabolism.Conclusion: YXRJP can effectively improve the symptoms of DPN rats and reduce nerve damage. …”
