The network pharmacology results indicate that Gupi Xiaoji Prescription may treat liver cancer by regulating mitochondrial division and fusion of key genes to disrupt liver cancer cells' energy metabolism. In vitro experiments also verified that GXP could inhibit the proliferation and migration of HepG2.2.15 cells by up-regulating MFN1 and MFN2, down-regulating the expression of FIS1 and OPA1 in addition to damaging mitochondria. Consistent with network pharmacology and molecular docking results, Polyphyllin I may be the most active compound of the formula's components. It also shows that Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plays a significant, targeted role in the treatment of HBV-related liver cancer.
