Objective To investigate the mechanism of Jieji Touzhen Formula (JTZF) in intervening with chikungunya fever (CHIKF) using network pharmacology and molecular docking. Methods Active components of JTZF and their corresponding targets were retrieved from the TCMSP database. Disease-related targets for CHIKF were collected from GeneCards,OMIM,and GEO databases. Common targets between JTZF and CHIKF were identified. A “herb-component-target” network was constructed using Cytoscape software. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis,Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment,and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed to elucidate the potential mechanisms of JTZF against CHIKF. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were employed to validate the binding between key active components of JTZF and the host cellular receptor for chikungunya virus (CHIKV),Matrix Remodeling-Associated Protein 8(MXRA8). Results A total of 99 active components of JTZF were screened. Seventy-eight common targets were identified between JTZF active components and CHIKF-related genes. Core targets included AKT1,PTEN,HIF1A,MAPK3,PTGS2,and MMP9. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed 30 significantly enriched pathways (P<0.05) potentially associated with JTZF’s therapeutic effect on CHIKF, including the VEGF signaling pathway,TNF signaling pathway,FoxO signaling pathway,and HIF-1 signaling pathway. Molecular docking demonstrated that several components,including nodakenin,dicentrine,paeoniflorin, fargesin, luteolin, quercetin, paeoniflorigenone, forsythiaside, coumaryl alcohol, pogostone, phillygenin, formononetin, Ononin Ⅱ , and evodionol B, exhibited strong binding activity with the MXRA8 protein. MD simulations further confirmed a stable binding conformation between nodakenin (from JTZF) and the MXRA8 protein. Conclusion JTZF may exert anti-inflammatory effects,restore antiviral immunity,and modulate immune responses against CHIKF through key active components such as nodakenin,dicentrine,paeoniflorin,fargesin, and luteolin. These components likely act on core targets like AKT1,PTEN,HIF1A,MAPK3,PTGS2,and MMP9, and modulate multiple signaling pathways including VEGF, TNF, FoxO, and HIF-1. Molecular docking and MD simulations suggest that nodakenin has the strongest binding affinity for MXRA8,indicating a potential antiviral mechanism involving the inhibition of viral entry by targeting the MXRA8 receptor.
