Transcriptome Sequencing Screened Differentially Expressed Genes in GES-1 intervened with Ulcer-Healing Decoction

To analyze the gene expression of human gastric epithelial cells (GES-1) regulated by paeonifl or in based on transcript tome sequencing; to identify and analyze key genes; to study the mechanism of paeoniflorin on Leuk-1cells; and to explore its medicinal value. Method: Different doses of Ulcer-healing Decoction were used to treat GES-1, and its activity was assessed by MTT assay. Transcriptome sequencing analysis was then performed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The function and pathways of the DEGs were annotated using GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. Result: The survival rate of GES-1 cells was significantly increased under different concentrations of ulcer-healing decoction intervention (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). After 24 hours of treatment with 80 µ g/mL ulcer-healing decoction, a total of 312 crucial DEGs were observed in GES-1 cells, of which 233 DEGs were upregulated and 79 DEGs were downregulated. The top five differentially expressed genes include CYP1A1, IL24, IKBKGP1, GDF15, SCUBE1 and OASL, ADAMTS5, SULF1, ID2, and DDX60. The functions of these genes are mainly related to promoting wound,cell proliferation and migration,immunity and inflammation.GO enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in the extracellular region and involved in biological processes such as cytokine production and response, stimulus response, and exerting molecular functions such as proliferation factor receptor activity. KEGG pathway enrichment showed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in various signaling pathways. Immunohistochemistry and other methods were used to detect differentially expressed proteins in GES-1 cells induced by ulcer-healing decoction, and the results were consistent with those from RNA-seq, thereby validating the accuracy of sequencing technologies. Conclusion: The role of ulcer-healing decoction in GES-1 is primarily reflected in regulating inflammatory factors and growth factors, promoting cell proliferation, and supporting the regeneration and repair of gastric mucosal epithelial cells. Overall design: RNA-seq analyzing differentiation of human gastric epithelial cell intervened with Ulcer-Healing Decoction of adipogenic
