Exploring the action mechanism and effective components of Yupingfeng powder on influenza based on computational system pharmacology and metabolomics.

YPF against influenza has multi-target and multi-pathway effects, and the underlying mechanisms may be related to metabolism. The pharmacodynamic effects of core components such as wogonin and isoimperaporin on influenza prevention and treatment were confirmed, which represent promising functional candidates for subsequent influenza prevention and treatment, and provide references for the pharmacological and mechanistic analyses of subsequent formulas.
