1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundTibetan medicine Gaoyuan'an capsule (GYAC) is widely used to prevent pulmonary edema at high altitude, but the specific mechanism has not been explored. In this study, we analyzed the mechanism of GYAC in hypoxia tolerance, and provided a new idea for the prevention and treatment of altitude disease.

methodsThe effective components and corresponding targets of GYAC were screened out by the Chinese herbal medicine network database, and the key targets of hypoxia tolerance were retrieved by Genecards, OMIM and PubMed database. Cytoscape 3.7.2 was used to construct GYAC ingredient-target-hypoxia tolerance-related target network. GO function annotation and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed to predict the pathways in which target genes may be involved, and molecular docking was used to verify the binding ability of the compound to target genes. In vitro, the above results were further verified by molecular experiment.

resultsWe found that GYAC can improve hypoxia tolerance by regulating various target genes, including IL6, IFNG, etc. The main regulatory pathways were HIF-1 signaling pathway. Molecular docking showed that the affinity between luteolin and target genes (IL6, IFNG) were better. In vitro, we observed that hypoxia can inhibit cell viability and promote apoptosis of H9C2 cell. And hypoxia can promote the expression of LDH. After the addition of luteolin, the decrease of cell viability, the increase of cell apoptosis, LDH release and the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential were inhibited. Besides, inflammatory related factors (IL-6, IL-10, IL-2, IFNG and VEGFA) expression were also inhibited hypoxic cell models.

conclusionsThe results of network pharmacology and molecular docking showed that luteolin, a monomeric component of GYAC, played a role in hypoxia tolerance through a variety of target genes, such as IL6, IFNG. What's more, we have discovered that luteolin can reduce the inflammatory response in cardiac myocytes, thereby alleviating mitochondrial damage, and ultimately enhancing the hypoxia tolerance of H9C2 cardiomyocytes.
