Abstract

Tinnitus is the most common medical symptom that can be debilitating. Chinese herbal medicines (CHMs) play important roles in tinnitus treatment. This study analyzed the most frequently prescribed herbs used to treat tinnitus and the molecular mechanisms of therapeutic effects of these CHMs by text mining and bioinformatics technique. Results showed that pinellia ternate (Banxia) and gastrodin (Tianma) are the most frequently prescribed CHMs for treatment tinnitus. The molecular mechanisms of therapeutic effects of two CHMs were focused on sertoli cell-sertoli cell juntion signaling and NRF2-mediated oxidative stress response signaling. Integrative text mining and bioinformatics analysis may be a promising approach to find new drug and decipher their molecular mechanism intuitively.
