摘要
Liujunzi decoction (LJZD) is commonly used to treat hepatitis B virus (HBV), though its active ingredients and mechanisms are not fully known. This study identified core targets and active components of LJZD for treating hepatitis B (HB) through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation. Screening from databases yielded 533 active components, 2619 targets for LJZD, and 2910 for HB, with 891 intersecting targets. STRING and CytoHubba analyses identified AR and VDR as core targets, with key pathways including PI3K-Akt and MAPK. The findings clarify LJZD's multicomponent, multitarget mechanisms, supporting its clinical application for HB treatment.
