title: [Study on intersection and regulation mechanism of "efficacy-toxicity network" of aconite in combination environment of Sini decoction].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the intersection and regulation mechanism of "efficacy-toxicity network" of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Zingiberis Rhizoma and Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata's action gene in the combination environment of Sini decoction with the network pharmacological method.
  
  
  METHODS
  The gene interaction network of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Zingiberis Rhizoma were mined and established with Cytoscape software and Agilent literature search plug-in. The "efficiency-toxicity network" intersection of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata was formed according to its effects in anti-heart failure, neurotoxicity and cardiotoxicity. The target genes were clustered with Clusterviz plug-in. And the possible pathways of the "efficacy-tox- icity network" intersection of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Zingiberis Rhizoma and Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata were forecasted in DAVID database.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There were five genes related to neurotoxicity, cardiotoxicity and anti-heart failure function of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, namely AKT1, BAX, HCC, IL6 and IL8, which formed 47 nodes genes in the "efficiency-toxicity network" intersection of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata. There were 29 and 27 coincident genes in the "efficiency-toxicity network" of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Zingiberis Rhizoma and Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata. There were 23 and 17 possible regulatory pathways.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In the combination environment of Sini decoction, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Zingiberis Rhizoma may regulate the efficiency-toxicity network of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata by influencing immune-inflammatory signaling pathway, apoptosis-autophagy signaling pathway, nerve cell and myocardial ischemia and hypoxia protection signaling pathways.
