Abstract

This study evaluated the protective effects of Plantago asiatica L. (PAL) extract against acute lower limb ischemia-reperfusion injury (LL-IRI). Network pharmacology and molecular docking identified core targets associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis and indicated stable interactions betweenPAL constituents and these targets. In vivo, PAL improved skeletal muscle pathology and ultrastructural injury in LL-IRI rats, reduced interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, restored superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities and Bcl-2 expression, and suppressed Bax and cleaved Caspase-3. In vitro, PAL promoted the proliferation and migration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-injured C2C12 cells, stabilized mitochondrial membrane potential, and modulated apoptosis-related proteins. These findings support the view that PAL protects against LL-IRI by attenuating inflammation and oxidative stress and by regulating apoptosis.
