[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the formulation patterns of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in treating peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP) and explore the mechanism of action of core drug combinations. Methods Clinical records from PDAP patients hospitalized in the Nephrology Department of First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (January 2013—December 2024) were collected to establish a syndrome-pattern and prescription database. Active components were retrieved from Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database (TCMSP), HERB, ETCM, and BATMAN-TCM databases, with target prediction via Swiss Target Prediction. Disease-related targets were identified through Digsee, DrugBank, GeneCard, OMIM and NCBI Gene databases. Intersection targets were obtained using the Weishengxin Bioinformatics Platform. Cytoscape was used to construct “active component-intersection target” networks and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, with subsequent screening of key components and core targets. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were performed through DAVID database. Molecular docking was conducted using AutoDock Vina. Results The study included 109 patients with 109 prescriptions, involving two single syndrome patterns and 22 compound patterns, comprising 210 herbs. Herbs predominantly exhibited warm, neutral, cold, and slightly cold properties; sweet, bitter, and pungent flavors; and tropism towards spleen, stomach, liver, and lung meridians. Seven clusters were identified through systematic clustering analysis. The core combination “Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma)-Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium)-Sharen (Amomi Fructus)-Zhike (Aurantii Fructus)” contained 94 active components and 1 494 targets, with 561 PDAP-related intersection targets. Key components included quercetin, naringenin, 5,7,8,3',4'-pentamethoxyflavone, carotene, norcotine and skullcapflavone I. Core targets included interleukin-6 (IL6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), albumin(ALB), serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1), and interleukin-1 beta (IL1B). KEGG analysis revealed that the main pathways involved were advanced glycation end products-receptor for advanced glycation end products (AGE-RAGE), phosphatidylinositol-3-hydroxykinase (PI3K)-protein kinase B (Akt), hypoxia-inducible factor-1(HIF-1), focal adhesion, and other signaling pathways. Molecular docking demonstrated strong binding affinity between key targets and core components. Conclusion TCM treatment of PDAP primarily focuses on tonifying and protecting the spleen and kidney, resolving dampness, detoxification, regulating qi, and promoting bowel movement, complemented by blood activation and stasis removal.The potential therapeutic targets of the core herbs combination “Pinelliae Rhizoma-Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium-Amomi Fructus-Aurantii Fructus” in the treatment of PDAP primarily involve IL6, TNF, GAPDH, ALB, AKT1, IL1B, etc. Its mechanism of action primarily involves biological processes such as inflammatory responses, negative regulation of apoptotic process and positive regulation of cell population proliferation,which may provide the theoretical basis for TCM in the treatment of PDAP, and the direction for further study of the potential mechanism.
