Abstract
A new intervention was investigated for the induction of oral tolerance (OT) of OVA using narirutin by in vivo and in vitro experiments combined with network pharmacology and structural analysis of molecular docking. Narirutin (and its metabolism naringenin) has effects on OT by affecting B cell function, DCs, and T cell response by prediction. It was verified that narirutin could affect B cell function of secreting antibodies, thereby reducing the ability of DCs to absorb antigens by affecting GATA3, CCR7, STAT5, and MHCII expression and regulating T cell response by suppressing Th2 and improving Treg cells in vivo. Molecular docking showed that steric hindrance effects may be the reason for weaker binding energy with targets of narirutin. However, this does not mean that it has no bioactivity, for it can inhibit mast cell degranulation. This finding is interesting because it offers the possibility of using natural compounds to promote oral tolerance.
