[Abstract]
Objective To screen potential targets and pathways of gypenoside XVII in ameliorating neurological impairment following intracerebral hemorrhage through network pharmacology approaches, and further validate its therapeutic effects along with the regulatory mechanisms on the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway via both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Methods Network pharmacology platforms were used to screen common targets of gypenoside XVII and intracerebral hemorrhage, followed by PPI network construction and pathway enrichment analysis. Molecular docking was performed to validate target binding activity, while cellular and animal experiments were conducted to explore the molecular mechanism of gypenoside XVII in intracerebral hemorrhage treatment. Hemin-induced SH-SY5Y cell model mimicking intracerebral hemorrhage was established, and cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured via fluorescent probes. RT-qPCR was used to detect mRNA expression levels of TNF, IL-1β, IGF1, EGFR, and PIK3R1. Sixty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, and gypenoside XVII (20, 40 mg/kg) group. Intracerebral hemorrhage model was constructed using autologous blood injection. Neurological function scores, cerebral edema (dry-wet weight method), histopathological changes in perihematomal brain tissue (HE and Nissl staining), oxidative stress markers (SOD, MDA), inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β), and protein expression levels of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, and Akt were evaluated. Results Network pharmacology identified 166 common targets, with PPI analysis revealing core targets (PIK3R1, Akt1), and KEGG enrichment highlighting the PI3K/Akt pathway as central. In vitro, gypenoside XVII significantly increased cell viability, inhibited ROS generation, and downregulated TNF, IL-1β, IGF1, EGFR, PIK3R1 mRNA expression. In vivo, gypenoside XVII reduced neurological deficits, decreased cerebral edema, alleviated perihematomal pathological damage, enhanced SOD activity, lowered MDA and inflammatory cytokine levels (TNF-α, IL-1β), and upregulated phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt (P < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001). Conclusion Gypenoside XVII may improve neurological injury after intracerebral hemorrhage by modulating the PI3K/Akt pathway.
