Objective To analyze and identify the chemical constituents of Penthorum chinense Pursh, and its stem and leaf by UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS, and combined with network pharmacology and molecular docking to explore the mechanism of liver-protective effects. Methods The chemical components of the P. chinense, and its stem and leaf were identified and characterized combined with reference materials, related literature and database retrieval. The TCMSP database was used to select the components, and the active ingredients were screened by combining literature reports. Active ingredient target search through TCMSP, SwissTargetPrediction database; Screening for disease targets through genetic databases. The drug targets were intersected with the disease targets, and the PPI network was constructed using String11.5 database and Cytoscape 3.7.2 software, and the core targets were screened. DAVID 6.8 was used enrichment analysis, Cytoscape 3.7.2 was used to construct the "active ingredient-target gene-pathway" network, and AutoDock Tools 1.5.6 was used to verify the molecular docking of active ingredients and targets. Results Sixty-four chemical components, including flavonoids, organic acids, lignans and phenylpropanoids were identified in the P. chinense, stem and leaf extracts, respectively. Among them, 28 active components were screened, 126 intersection of component targets and disease targets, and 15 key active components and 24 core targets were further screened by network topology; 163 entries were obtained by GO functional enrichment, and 131 entries were obtained by KEGG functional enrichment. The results of molecular docking showed that the screened active ingredients have good binding activity to the target proteins. Conclusion This study provides a comprehensive study of the chemical components in P. chinense, and initially elucidates its pharmacodynamic substances basis, and predicts its hepatoprotective effects through multi-component, multi-target, multi-access and multi-pathway.
