Investigating the mechanisms of resveratrol in the treatment of gouty arthritis through the integration of network pharmacology and metabolics by Xiaomin Xu, Donghua Yu, Yu Wang, Xin Jiang, Fang Lu, Shumin Liu

“…In addition, non-targeted metabolomics techniques were combined to further investigate the mechanism of Res in treating GA.ResultsThe results of network pharmacology showed that Res may exert its therapeutic effects through the NF-κB signaling pathway. Animal experiments demonstrated that in the MSU-induced GA rat model, pathological damage, serum biochemical indicators, and levels of inflammatory factors were significantly increased, and the NF-κB signaling pathway was activated. …”
