Abstract:
Bone defects are difficult to heal, which conveys a heavy burden to patients' lives and their economy. The total flavonoids of Rhizoma drynariae (TFRD) can promote the osteogenesis of distraction osteogenesis. However, the dose effect is not clear, the treatment period is short, and the quality of bone formation is poor. In our study, we observed the long‐term effects and dose effects of TFRD on bone defects, verified the main ingredients of TFRD in combination with network pharmacology for the first time, explored its potential mechanism, and verified these findings. We found that TFRD management for 12 weeks regulated osteogenesis and angiogenesis in rats with 4‐mm tibial bone defects through the PI3K/AKT/HIF‐1α/VEGF signaling pathway, especially at high doses (135 mg kg −1 d −1 ). The vascularization effect of TFRD in promoting human umbilical vein endothelial cells was inhibited by PI3K inhibitors. These results provide a reference for the clinical application of TFRD.
