基于多层次结构化网络整体分析技术的生脉方药效成分群虚拟筛选与实验验证研究

How to fast and accurately identify effective components of Chinese medicine is a critical scientific problem that needs to be solved to modernize Chinese medicine. It is thus our goal in this proposal to develop a holistic network analysis based virtual screening strategy to identify effective components using multi-level hierarchical network analysis approach followed by experimental validations. Multi-level hierarchical network in the form of “component-target-pathway-gene-disease” will be firstly constructed by integrating high throughput omics data, literature information and disease knowledge base. Holistic network analysis approaches will then be developed to quantitatively evaluate the network influence scores of chemical components on the disease network and the interaction strength between the components. The scores will be used for further fast virtual screening of effective components with respect to a specific clinical indication for a Chinese medicine. In our preliminary studies, we have investigated extensively the chemical substituents, tissue distribution, PK, PD and mechanism of actions of Shengmai formula using proteomics and metabolomics approaches. In addition, we have also developed a prototype multi-level network analysis algorithm and tool with successful applications in drug reposition for complex diseases such as cardiovascular diseases. This proposal will follow up on this to build multi-level hierarchical network for Shengmai formula against ischemic heart diseases and screen its effective components followed by validation in cellular and animal disease models. The validation results will be fed back to the computational models to optimize the parameters for best performances. This study integrates macro-level holistic network analysis with micro-level molecular interaction analysis to explore the strategy for effective components identification that is fitful to Chinese medicine. It is therefore of great importance to the innovation and development of Chinese medicine theory.
