摘要
A traditional Chinese medicine formula (Fuzheng Yiliu decoction; FZYLD) has been used for many years in clinical settings to cure liver tumors; however, no empirical research has reported its chemical composition. In this paper, 21 chief constituents were distinguished from FZYLD using high-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry fingerprint analysis. Molecular docking studies for B-cell lymphoma-extra large (Bcl-X-L), interleukin (IL)-2, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) were bound to evaluate their anticancer activities. 7 compounds showed potential Bcl-X-L high affinity binding with a dissociate constant (K-d) < 10 mu M; 7 compounds bound with IL-2 had a K-d < 10 mu M; and 11 compounds showed potential TNF-alpha inhibition with a K-d < 10 mu M. Moreover, 11 compounds showed better anticancer activity toward human HepG2 (hepatoma) cancer cell lines with IC50 values < 100 mu M in vitro. The killings effects of natural killer cells can be activated by FZYLD on HepG2 cells and regulate the immune response through modulating IL-2 and TNF-alpha expression in vivo. In the "Fuzheng" Chinese medicine formula, many substances participate in the complex regulation of the immune network to execute the anti-tumor effect. The combination approach of chromatographic fingerprint and computer virtual docking used to explore active chemical matter of traditional Chinese medicine is extremely valuable.
