Abstract: OBJECTIVE: experiments. METHODS: experiments. RESULTS: QLJXD contains 76 active ingredients and 136 disease targets. The core ingredients are quercetin, β-sitosterol, wogonin and baicalein, while the core targets are fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) and peroxisome proliferative activated receptor gamma (PPARG). Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the core ingredients bound well to the core targets. Animal experiments demonstrated that QLJXD effectively inhibited the expression of FABP4 and increased the expression of PPARG, thereby enhancing disorders of glycolipid metabolism. CONCLUSION: The putative therapeutic efficacy of QLJXD in the management of T2DM complicated with hyperlipidemia may be ascribed to the synergistic actions of multiple components, such as quercetin, β-sitosterol, wogonin, and baicalein, which collectively modulate FABP4 and PPARG molecular targets.
