Korth. Havil (MS) has a traditional use in relieving pain, managing hypertension, treating cough, and diarrhea, and as a morphine substitute in addiction recovery. Its potential in addressing Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative condition with no effective treatments, is under investigation. This study aims to explore MS mechanisms in treating AD through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in vitro studies. Using network pharmacology, we identified 19 MS components that may affect 60 AD-related targets. The compound-target network highlighted significant interactions among 60 nodes and 470 edges, with an average node degree of 15.7. The KEGG enrichment analysis revealed Alzheimer's disease (hsa05010) as a relevant pathway. We connected 20 targets to tau and β-amyloid proteins through gene expression data from the AlzData database. Docking studies demonstrated high binding affinities of MS compounds like acetylursolic acid, beta-sitosterol, isomitraphylline, and speciophylline to AD-related proteins, such as AKT1, GSK3B, NFκB1, and BACE1. In vitro studies showed that ethanolic (EE), distilled water (DWE), and pressurized hot water (PHWE) extracts of MS-treated 100 μM HO-induced SH-SY5Y cells significantly reduced oxidative damage. This research underscores the multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway effects of MS on AD, providing insights for future research and potential clinical applications.
科思。哈维尔（MS）在缓解疼痛、控制高血压、治疗咳嗽和腹泻方面有传统用途，并且在成瘾康复中可作为吗啡替代品。其在治疗阿尔茨海默病（AD）方面的潜力正在研究中，AD是一种尚无有效治疗方法的神经退行性疾病。本研究旨在通过网络药理学、分子对接和体外研究探索MS治疗AD的机制。利用网络药理学，我们确定了19种可能影响60个AD相关靶点的MS成分。化合物-靶点网络突出显示了60个节点和470条边之间的显著相互作用，平均节点度为15.7。KEGG富集分析显示阿尔茨海默病（hsa05010）是一条相关通路。我们通过来自AlzData数据库的基因表达数据将20个靶点与tau蛋白和β-淀粉样蛋白联系起来。对接研究表明，MS化合物如乙酰熊果酸、β-谷甾醇、异麦角新碱和异叶茶碱与AD相关蛋白如AKT1、GSK3B、NFκB1和BACE1具有高结合亲和力。体外研究表明，MS的乙醇提取物（EE）、蒸馏水提取物（DWE）和加压热水提取物（PHWE）处理100μM HO诱导的SH-SY5Y细胞可显著降低氧化损伤。本研究强调了MS对AD的多成分、多靶点和多途径作用，为未来研究和潜在临床应用提供了见解。
