NADPH oxidases (NOXs) are a predominant mediator of redox homeostasis in hepatic
stellate cells (HSCs), and oxidative stress plays an important role in the
pathogenesis of liver fibrosis. Ursolic acid (UA) is a pentacyclic triterpenoid
with various pharmacological activities, but the molecular targets and underlying
mechanisms for its antifibrotic effect in the liver remain elusive. This study
aimed to computationally predict the molecular interactome and mechanistically
investigate the antifibrotic effect of UA on oxidative stress, with a focus on
NOX4 activity and cross-linked signaling pathways in human HSCs and rat liver.
Drug-drug interaction via chemical-protein interactome tool, a server that can
predict drug-drug interaction via chemical-protein interactome, was used to
predict the molecular targets of UA, and Database for Annotation, Visualization,
and Integrated Discovery was employed to analyze the signaling pathways of the
predicted targets of UA. The bioinformatic data showed that there were 611
molecular proteins possibly interacting with UA and that there were over 49
functional clusters responding to UA. The subsequential benchmarking data showed
that UA significantly reduced the accumulation of type I collagen in HSCs in rat
liver, increased the expression level of MMP-1, but decreased the expression
level of TIMP-1 in HSC-T6 cells. UA also remarkably reduced the gene expression
level of type I collagen in HSC-T6 cells. Furthermore, UA remarkably attenuated
oxidative stress via negative regulation of NOX4 activity and expression in
HSC-T6 cells. The employment of specific chemical inhibitors, SB203580, LY294002,
PD98059, and AG490, demonstrated the involvement of ERK, PI3K/Akt, and p38 MAPK
signaling pathways in the regulatory effect of UA on NOX4 activity and
expression. Collectively, the antifibrotic effect of UA is partially due to the
oxidative stress attenuating effect through manipulating NOX4 activity and
expression. The results suggest that UA may act as a promising antifibrotic
agent. More studies are warranted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of UA in
the treatment of liver fibrosis.
