Bioinformatics analysis based on extracted ingredients combined with network pharmacology, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation to explore the mechanism of Jinbei oral liquid in the therapy of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Jinbei oral liquid (JBOL), which is derived from a traditional hospital preparation, is frequently utilized to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and has shown efficacy in clinical therapy. However, there are now several obstacles facing the mechanism inquiry, including target proteins, active components, and the binding affinity between crucial compounds and target proteins. To gain additional insight into the mechanisms underlying JBOL in anti-IPF, this study used bioinformation technologies, including network pharmacology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamic simulation, with a substantial amount of data based on realistic constituents.
