Action mechanisms and cattle breeding potential of Baihe Wuyao Xiexin decoction

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the Baihe Wuyao Xiexin Decoction in treating esophagitis. The objectives were to identify its key active ingredients and core targets, establish a comprehensive "compound-target-pathway" network, and explore its potential application in beef cattle farming. In this study, network pharmacology combined with molecular docking technology was used to investigate Baihe Wuyao Xiexin Decoction. A "drug-component-targetpathway-esophagitis" network was constructed to systematically analyze the potential mechanism of the decoction in treating esophagitis, and the key active components, therapeutic targets, and related signaling pathways were identified. Meanwhile, based on the characteristics of the active components of the prescription and the needs of the beef cattle breeding industry, the application potential of its extract and herb residues in beef cattle breeding was further explored. The results of this study provide a scientific basis and theoretical support for the clinical application and further development of this prescription, as well as its industrialization in the field of green breeding.
