The pharmacological evidence of the chang-yan-ning formula in the treatment of colitis.

ABSTRACT: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a subtype of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and occurs mainly in the colon. The etiology of UC is rather complex and involves various pathological factors, including genetic susceptibility, dietary intakes, environment, and microbiota. In China, the Chang-Yan-Ning (CYN) formula has been utilized in the clinic to treat gastrointestinal disorders, but its pharmacological evidence remains elusive. The investigation was designed to explore the molecular and cellular mechanisms of CYN. Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS) was performed to identify the key components in the formula; Network pharmacology analysis was executed to predict the potential targets of CYN; An experimental murine colitis model was established by utilizing 2% dextran sod
