Exploration of Simiao-Yongan Decoction on knee osteoarthritis based on network pharmacology and molecular docking.

ABSTRACT: Use network pharmacology combined with molecular docking to study the effects of Simiao-Yongan Decoction (SMYAD) intervenes in Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) related targets and signaling pathways, and explores the molecular mechanism of SMYAD in treating KOA. The active ingredients and targets of SMYAD, which concluded 4 traditional Chinese medicines, were screened in TCMSP, and the related gene targets of KOA were screened in the disease databases GeneCards, MalaCards, DisGeNET, and Comparative Toxicogenomics Database, and their intersection data were obtained after integration. And used Cytoscape 3.9.1, the software topologies the network diagram of "compound-drug-active ingredient-target protein-disease." Obtains the protein-protein interaction network diagram through STRING, and enriches a
