Abstract:ObjectiveToexplorethetherapeuticmechanismofArctiumlappaextractfortreatmentofPost-ViralPneumonia PulmonaryFibrosis (PPF).Methods Thechemicalconstituentsof Arctiumlappaextractswere identifiedusing UHPLC-Q-TOFMS/MS.Mouse models of pulmonary fibrosis established by tracheal instilltion of bleomycin were treated with Arctiumlappa extract,and body weightchanges were recorded andlung tisue pathology was examinedusingHEand Mason staining. Metabolomicsanalysiswasusedtoidentifythediferentialmetabolitesandtheassociatedmetabolicpathwaysinthetreated mice.Thecommon targetsofviral pneumoniaand pulmonary fibrosis wereacquiredfrom thepubliclyavailable databases, andthecore targetsandactiveconstituentswere screened using the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network,GOand KEGG enrichmentanalyses,andmoleculardocking,anda"gene-metabolite"regulatorynetworkwasconstructed.Theexprsionsof thecoretargetsweredetectedinthelungtisuesofthetreatedmiceusingWesternbloting.ResultsFifty-threechemical constituents wereidentifiedfromArctium lappa extract.Inthemousemodelsof pulmonaryfibrosis,treatmentwithArctium lappaextractsignificantlyimprovedweightlossandamelioratedlunginflammationandfibrosis.Thedierentialmetabolites inthe treated mice wereenriched inenergy metabolismpathways involving citratecycle,pentosephosphatepathway glycolysis,tryptophan metabolism,glutamate metabolism and glutathione metabolism,which regulatedthe productionof energy metabolismintermediates.Twenty-threkeyactivecompounds (mostlylignansand phenolicacids)and82coretargets were screned,which wereasociated withthenon-canonical Smadsignalingpathways (includingPI3K/AKT,HF-1,MAPK, andFoxo)thatparticipated intheregulationofenergymetabolism.Arctiumlappextractalsoregulatedtheexpresionsof epithelial-mesenchymaltransition(EM)relatedproteins(fibronectinvimentimandSnail,tc.)andinibitedMAPK signalingpathwayactivation.Conclusion PreliminaryfindingssuggestthatArctium lappatreatsfibrosisbyregulating metabolism toinhibitEMTandinvolvesthe modulationof non-canonicalSmad signalingpathways,suchas MAPKproviding theoretical support for its clinical application and further research in treating PPF.
