Investigation of Fructus Ligustri Lucidi for Premature Ovarian Insufficiency based on a Network Pharmacology and Experiment Verifications.
Article in Combinatorial chemistry & high throughput screening, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
introductionPremature ovarian insufficiency [POI] is a disease characterized by a premature decline in ovarian function before the age of 40. In China, Ligustrum lucidum [FLL] has long been used to improve ovarian function and treat POI.
methodsThis study aims to verify the effect of FLL on POI through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in-vitro cell experiments.
resultsA total of 13 active substances were screened in FLL, including including quercetin, taxifolin, luteolin, kaempferol, and beta-sitosterol. Then, network analysis found that FLL may exert effects on POI through 10 targets, including AR, ESR1, ESR2, KDR, CYP19A1, CLPP, GC, MMP3, PPARG, and STS. According to GO and KEGG enrichment analysis, FLL is associated with mechanisms related to estrogen, including steroid hormone biosynthesis, ovarian steroidogenesis, and the estrogen signaling pathway. Molecular docking confirms the interaction between the active ingredients of FLL and CYP19A1, which encodes aromatase. CCK8 experiment confirmed that quercetin and taxifolin can enhance the proliferation of KGN granulosa cells, while quercetin, taxifolin, and kaempferol can inhibit the apoptosis of KGN granulosa cells. ELISA experiments have confirmed that quercetin, taxifolin, luteolin, and kaempferol can increase the synthesis of estradiol in KGN granulosa cells. WB confirms that quercetin can increase the expression level of CYP19A1 in KGN cells.
conclusionFLL can improve the proliferation, apoptosis, and synthesis of estradiol in ovarian granulosa cells, and has the potential to treat POI.
