Qingxuan Runmu Yin alleviates dry eye disease via inhibition of the HMOX1/HIF-1 pathway affecting ferroptosis.

ABSTRACT: The prevalence of dry eye disease (DED), a multifactorial ocular surface disease characterized by tear film instability, is increasing yearly. Qingxuan Run Mu Yin (QXRMY) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) consisting of Radix Rehmanniae, Radix Scrophulariae, Rhizoma Atractylodis macrocephalae, Herba Dendrobii, Flos Lonicerae, Forsythia suspensa, Ophiopogon japonicus, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Radix Platycodi, and Radix Glycyrrhizae. It has excellent therapeutic effects on dry eye syndrome and a good anti-inflammatory effect on immune-related inflammation. However, the molecular mechanism of Qing Xuan Run Mu Yin in treating dry eye syndrome is largely unknown. The present study used an online database to identify potential target genes of QXRMY for treating DED. The possible mec
