PurposeThis study aimed to investigate the effect of essential ingredients of licorice on the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). MethodThe ingredients information were obtained from PubChem (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/), related genes about COPD was collected from geneCards (http://www.genecards.org/). Network pharmacology was utilized in this study. ResultThe intersection data set contains 20 molecular targets between COPD and liquorice. Protein-protein interaction network showed that there are a total of 58 nodes and 137 edges involved. The link number of AKT1 in PPI network was 39, which is the highest level of interaction. MAPK1 is an important target of Licorice on COPD. ConclusionMAPK signaling pathway could be the important key target of main ingredients of licorice on COPD.
