Résumé

Skin and soft tissue infection (SSTI) is a frequently encountered clinical disease, and Sanhuang ointment, a traditional Chinese medicine, is used to treat it. However, the pharmacological effect of Sanhuang ointment on SSTI and its underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we investigate the protective effect of Sanhuang ointment on Via network pharmacology, the active components and disease targets of Sanhuang ointment were screened and intersected for Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. A rat model of skin and soft tissue infection was established, and pathological features were observed. Large, medium, and small-dose groups (1 g, 0.5 g, and 0.25 g/animal, with the total amount of Vaseline, dispensed 1 g/animal) of Sanhuang ointment were prepared and Mupirocin ointment was used as a positive control (0.5 g/animal, with the total amount of Vaseline, dispensed 1 g/animal). The expressions of key proteins of the IL-17/NF-κB signaling pathway and downstream inflammatory factors were analyzed by histomorphological analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, polymerase chain reaction, and Western blotting. In all, 119 active components and 275 target genes of Sanhuang ointment were identified and intersected with MRSA infection-related genes via network pharmacology analysis, and 34 target genes of Sanhuang ointment were found to be involved in skin and soft tissue infections with MRSA. Sanhuang ointment (1 g/mouse) could effectively ameliorate histopathological changes and significantly inhibit the expression of key proteins involved in the IL-17/NF-κB signaling pathway and downstream inflammatory factors (p < 0.05). Sanhuang ointment has a protective effect on MRSA infection and inhibits inflammation by inhibiting the IL-17/NF-κB signaling pathway. Our findings are important for the secondary development and new drug development of Sanhuang ointment.
