Network pharmacology and molecular docking analysis reveal insights into the molecular mechanism of shiliao decoction in the treatment of cancer-associated malnutrition
Abstract:PurposeShiliao Decoction (SLD) was developed for treatment and prevention of cancer-associated malnutrition (CAM) in China. In this study, we aim to discover SLD’s active compounds and demonstrate the mechanisms of SLD that combat CAM through network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques.MethodsAll components of SLD were retrieved from the pharmacology database of Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology (TCMSP). The GeneCards database and the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man database (OMIM… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
