[Abstract]
Objective To explore the effect of Jinteng Qingbi Granules on knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in rats based on network pharmacology and its correlation with promoting mitophagy to improve ferroptosis. Methods The active components and targets of Jinteng Qingbi Granules were collected through the traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform (TCMSP) database. The targets of KOA and Jinteng Qingbi Granules were collected using databases such as the GeneCards and the online Mendelian inheritance in Man (OMIM). Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and “traditional Chinese medicine-active component-target” networks were constructed. The Autodock software was used for molecular docking of the screened effective components and key targets. Rats were randomly divided into control group, sham group, model group, diclofenac sodium (5 mg/kg) group and high-, medium- and low-dose (5.4, 2.7, 1.4 g/kg) Jinteng Qingbi Granule groups. Each group was administered the corresponding drug by intragastric administration once a day. After four weeks of administration, samples were collected. The contents of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by ELISA. The pathological changes of cartilage were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The expressions of cystein-asparate protease-1 (Caspase-1), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (Pink1), Parkinson disease (Parkin), sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1/p62), ferroportin 1 (FPN1), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4), ferritin, transferrin receptor protein 1 (TFR1), and recombinant peroxiredoxin 3 (PRDX3) were detected by Western blotting (WB). Results A total of 116 active components and 268 action targets of Jinteng Qingbi Granules were retrieved from the database, with 107 common targets. The key targets were involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway, mitophagy signaling pathway, etc. Molecular docking results suggested that binding sites existed between the target proteins and small molecules, with low binding energy, indicating strong binding activity. The results of animal experiments showed that compared with the control group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the model group were significantly increased (P < 0.01, 0.001), the pathological tissue hyperplasia of knee joint cartilage was obvious, the expression levels of Pro-Caspase-1, p-NF-κB, NF-κB, p62, ASL4, TFR1 and PRDX3 were significantly increased (P < 0.05), the expression levels of Pink1, Parkin, FPN1, GPX4, and ferritin were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), and the values of autophagy proteins Beclin and LC3BII/I were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the pathological morphological damage in each group of Jinteng Qingbi Granules was alleviated, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, Pro-Caspase-1, p-NF-κB, NF-κB, p62, ASL4, TFR1, PRDX3 and NCOA4 were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), and the expression levels of Pink1, Parkin, FPN1, GPX4, ferritin, and autophagy proteins Beclin and LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Conclusion Jinteng Qingbi Granules may treat knee osteoarthritis by enhancing mitophagy, improving ferroptosis, and inhibiting NF-κB inflammatory signaling pathway.
