AbstractTo investigate the mechanism of action of Cao Wu in the treatment of migraine from the perspective of network pharmacology. The Swiss Target Prediction Database and CTD database were used to predict the target information of Cao Wu. Human Genome Database gene cards were used to find migraine-related target genes. The target protein interaction network and the "active ingredient-target" network were obtained by combining Cytoscape 3.7.1 software and R language. Enrichment analysis of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway and gene function analysis (GO) were performed using the R language to preliminarily explore the multiple pharmacological mechanisms of Radix Aconiti kusnezoffii. Forty-three indicators were identified. A total of 176 migraine targets were identified through the genecards database and OMIM database. Radix Aconiti kusnezoffii targets were compared with migraine targets and 12 overlapping targets were extracted. The protein interaction network of the overlapping targets was analyzed to identify the key targets for the drug to affect the disease. In addition, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway and go function enrichment analyses were performed on the overlapping targets to explore the therapeutic mechanism of migraine. The treatment of migraine with herbal woo is characterized by multi-component, multi-target, and multi-channel, which exerts complex network regulation through the interaction between different targets, providing a new idea and basis for further exploring the mechanism of action of herbal woo in the treatment of migraine.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
