RESUMO
Dengue fever is a frequently occurring infectious disease caused by the Dengue virus, prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. Chaishi Jiedu Granules (CSJD) is an empirical prescription of the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University in the treatment of dengue fever, which has been widely used in the treatment of dengue fever, and has shown good efficacy in improving the clinical symptoms of patients. This study aims to explore the molecular mechanism of CSJD in treating dengue fever using network pharmacology, molecular docking techniques, and virtual screening methods. The results showed that luteolin, quercetin and other compounds in CSJD could target important targets related to dengue virus, including STAT3, AKT1, TNF, IL-6, and other key genes, thus playing an antiviral role. Among them, luteolin and wogonin in CSJD also inhibited dengue virus replication and reduced inflammation, and showed good binding force with IL-6 and TNF. Therefore, this study provides an important reference for the development of CSJD as a potential drug for dengue fever treatment and a new perspective for research and development in this field.
