Abstract
This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of Wenzheng Jiedu Powder Modified Formula (WJPMF) in treating neuropathic pain (NP). Network pharmacology and experimental verification were integrated to explore the therapeutic effects and key targets of WJPMF. Active components, corresponding target genes, and absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) genes of WJPMF against NP were screened from public databases. Network analysis and molecular docking were conducted to identify key targets and verify binding abilities. In vivo experiments were performed on spared nerve injury (SNI) rats to assess the analgesic effects and regulatory mechanisms of WJPMF. WJPMF significantly improved pain behaviors in SNI rats by regulating ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARA), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) expression, which were key targets involved in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway. WJPMF shows promising therapeutic potential for NP through the modulation of specific targets, offering a novel therapeutic strategy for managing NP.
