Abstract EN
In clinical practice at Tibetan area of China, Traditional Tibetan Medicine formula Wuwei-Ganlu-Yaoyu-Keli (WGYK) is commonly added in warm water of bath therapy to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
However, its mechanism of action is not well interpreted yet.
In this paper, we first verify WGYK’s anti-RA effect by an animal experiment.
Then, based on gene expression data from microarray experiments, we apply approaches of network pharmacology to further reveal the mechanism of action for WGYK to treat RA by analyzing protein-protein interactions and pathways.
This study may facilitate our understanding of anti-RA effect of WGYK from perspective of network pharmacology.
