Objectives: Network pharmacology is essential for understanding the multi-target and multi-pathway therapeutic mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine. This study aims to evaluate the influence of database quality on target identification and to explore the therapeutic potential of rhynchophylline (Rhy) in treating overactive bladder (OAB). Methods: An OAB dataset was constructed through extensive literature screening. Using this dataset, we applied network pharmacology to predict potential targets for Rhy, which is known for its therapeutic effects but lacks a well-defined target profile. Predicted targets were validated through in vitro experiments, including DARTS and CETSA. Results: Our analysis identified Rhy as a potential modulator of the M3 receptor and TRPM8 channel in the treatment of OAB. Validation experiments confirmed the interaction between Rhy and these targets. Additionally, the GeneCards database predicted other targets that are not directly linked to OAB, corroborated by the literature. Conclusions: We established a more accurate and comprehensive dataset of OAB targets, enhancing the reliability of target identification for drug treatments. This study underscores the importance of database quality in network pharmacology and contributes to the potential therapeutic strategies for OAB. |
