Jiawei Foshou San is a new Chinese medicine compound consisting of ligustrazine, ferulic acid and fumarate. Previously Jiawei Foshou San inhibited the growth of endometriosis with unclear mechanism, especially in metastasis and invasion. In this study, network pharmacology analysis was performed to explore potential mechanism of Jiawei Foshou San on endometriosis. Jiawei Foshou San compound targets were purchase from TCMID, TCMSP and SEA database. Endometriosis targets were collected from OMIM, DisGeNET and GEO database. Networks of Jiawei Foshou San compound-compound targets and compound target-endometriosis target were established with Cytoscape 3.5.0 software. Key targets were analyzed for pathway enrichment through DAVID database. It was found that Jiawei Foshou San regulated 66 core targets (MMP2, MMP9, TIMP1, ICAM1, VEGFA, et al.) and affected 115 pathways, such as estrogen, HIF-1, TNF and GnRH signaling pathways. MMP-TIMP were uncovered as one cluster of the core targets. Furthermore, Jiawei Foshou San significantly suppressed the growth of ectopic endometrium. Meanwhile, invasion and metastasis were restrained after treating with Jiawei Foshou San through decreasing MMP-2 and MMP-9, increasing TIMP-1. In brief, these results provide a pharmacodynamic basis for the study of Jiawei Foshou San.
