Objective: Investigating how Qing-e pill aids in managing stress urinary incontinence through network pharmacology. Methods: Utilizing the TCM system's pharmacological database and analytical framework (TCMSP), along with literature exploration, the active components and their respective targets for Qing-e pill were identified, leading to the creation of a network of compound TCM - active ingredients - targets. The focus of SUI was identified using the GeneCards and OMIM databases. The active ingredient SUI-target network model was developed and examined using the Cytoscape 3.10.1 software. The protein interaction network (PPI) was created using the STRING database, incorporating gene ontology functional annotation (GO) and Tokyo Genome Encyclopedia (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis on key targets through DAVID online, with molecular docking performed using Surflex software. Results: Screening yielded 86 active components, 461 possible targets, 2551 SUI targets, and 187 typical targets for Qing-e pill and SUI. The outcomes of network analysis revealed Qing-e pill's primary targets for SUI treatment were AKT1, IL6, JUN, TNF, HSP90AA1, ESR1, CTNNB1, EGFR, among others. The primary biological mechanisms encompassed reactions to lipopolysaccharide, molecules originating from bacteria, metal ions, growth of epithelial cells, and the control of membrane potential, among others. KEGG enrichment primarily aims to utilize the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in treating a range of conditions, including diabetes complications, prostate cancer, fluid shear stress, atherosclerosis, lipid and atherosclerosis, IL-17 signaling pathway, and more. Conclusion: Initially, network pharmacology shed light on the foundational materials and operational methods of Qing-e pill in treating SUI, offering a theoretical foundation for their clinical use.
