Abstract: Objective To study the mechanism of Guizhi Fuling pills against mammary glandhyperplasia using network pharmacological methods. Methods TCMSP, Drugbank and TTD databases were searched for the target proteins of mammary gland hyperplasia. The Uniprot database was used to query the corresponding gene names of target proteins and select human proteins to obtain the target proteins of mammary gland hyperplasia regulated by Guizhi Fuling pills. TCMSP software was used to search the target proteins of breast hyperplasia. The active ingredients of Guizhi Fuling pills and their corresponding targets were obtained. Cytoscape 3.2.1 software was used to construct the target network of active ingredients of Guizhi Fuling pills and conduct topological analysis of the network. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and genome encyclopedia (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, KEGG) pathway analysis of key targets were carried out using the STRING database and DAVID database. Results Network pharmacological studies suggested that Guizhi Fuling pills might inhibit breast hyperplasia through inflammatory signaling pathways and hormonal signaling pathways. Guizhi Fuling pills had the multi-component and multi-target advantages in the treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia. Conclusion The active ingredients and mechanism of Guizhi Fuling pills in the treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia have been studied with network pharmacologicalMethods, which can help find out more about its mechanism.
