ABSTRACT
Aim To predict the potential mechanism of ophiopogonin D (OPD) against pulmonary fibrosis by network pharmacology, and further verify it by experiment in vivo. Methods This study found that ophiopogon was the most frequently used drug in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis with deficiency of Qi and Yin through data mining. In order to explore its material basis, network pharmacology analysis was carried out. A model of pulmonary fibrosis was established by bleomycin, and different concentrations of ophiopogonin D were administered to verify the results of the pharmacological network. Results Firstly, through network pharmacology analysis, it was found that mitophagy might be the potential target for ophiopogon to exert anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect. Meanwhile, network topology analysis showed that OPD had the greatest relationship with mitophagy. Animal experiments showed that OPD could relieve pulmonary fibrosis and reduce collagen deposition in mice. At the same time, the detection of mitophagy related proteins showed that the compound could increase the expression of PINK1 and Parkin proteins, reduce the content of P62 protein in lung tissue, and reduce the intracellular ROS level. Conclusions OPD can improve mitochondrial function and play an anti-pulmonary fibrosis role by promoting PINKl/Parkin dependent mitophagy in lung tissue.
ABSTRACT
To systemically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Banmao Capsules in the adjuvant treatment for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). All of randomized controlled trials(RCT) about Banmao Capsules in adjuvant treatment for non-small cell lung cancer were retrieved in PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, CBM, WanFang database from database inception to August 2019. Two researchers extracted data and assessed literature quality separately, and made a Meta-analysis by RevMan 5.3 software. Thirteen trials involving 1 148 patients, including 595 in treatment group and 553 in control group, were enrolled in the review. The Meta-analysis showed that compared with conventional treatment, adjuvant treatment of NSCLC with Banmao Capsules can enhance the objective tumor response rate(RR=1.43,95%CI[1.30,1.58],P<0.01), and the disease control rate(RR=1.16,95%CI[1.11,1.22],P<0.01); improve the quality of life(RR=1.56,95%CI[1.27,1.92],P<0.01); reduce the incidence of myelosuppression(RR=0.41,95%CI[0.26,0.66],P<0.01), gastrointestinal reactions(RR=0.46,95%CI[0.33,0.65],P<0.01), liver and kidney dysfunction(RR=0.44,95%CI[0.29,0.66],P<0.01). The results showed that in the treatment of NSCLC, Banmao Capsules can increase the short-term efficacy, improve the quality of life of patients, and reduce the side effects of platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. More high-quality and large-scale randomized controlled trials are required in the future.

To systemically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cinobufacini Injection in combination with platinum-contained first-line chemotherapy for treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). The randomized controlled trials(RCT) about the Cinobufacini in combination with platinum-contained first-line chemotherapy(versus chemotherapy alone) were collected through PubMed,Cochrane library,CNKI,VIP,CBM,and Wan Fang Database from database inception to December 2018. Two researchers extracted data and assessed the literature quality separately,and made a Meta-analysis by using Rev Man 5. 3 software. Twenty-seven RCTs were included in the present review,involving 2 125 patients,1 082 in treatment group and 1 043 in control group. The Meta-analysis results showed that as compared with chemotherapy alone,the combination of Cinobufacini and platinum-contained first-line chemotherapy could enhance one year survival rate(RR = 1. 34,95%CI[1. 17,1. 55],P< 0. 01),two year survival rate(RR = 1. 84,95% CI[1. 31,2. 59],P<0. 01),objective tumor response rate(RR = 1. 47,95%CI[1. 33,1. 63],P<0. 01); improve the quality of life for patients(RR =1. 54,95%CI[1. 37,1. 72],P < 0. 01); and reduce the incidences of WBC toxicity(RR = 0. 63,95% CI[0. 49,0. 80],P < 0. 01),platelet toxicity(RR = 0. 54,95%CI[0. 35,0. 84],P<0. 01),gastrointestinal reactions(RR = 0. 60,95%CI[0. 45,0. 80],P<0. 05),pain(RR = 1. 68,95% CI[1. 38,2. 03],P< 0. 01),and hair loss reaction(RR = 0. 76,95% CI[0. 59,0. 98],P < 0. 05). The results showed that for the treatment of NSCLC,the addition of cinofacini to conventional platinum-contained chemotherapy can increase the long-term and short-term efficacy of chemotherapy,improve the quality of life for patients,and reduce the side effects of platinumbased chemotherapy drugs. However,more high quality and large-scale randomized controlled trials are required to verify this conclusion in the future.
