TNF and cancer: Although pathways in cancer (hsa05200) involved more targets than others, considering the GO enrichment analysis results, we conjectured that the underlying mechanism of XBS against pediatric pneumonia is principally through the inflammatory-related pathways, such as the IL-17 signaling pathway (hsa04657), the TNF signaling pathway (hsa04668), the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway (hsa04151) and the MAPK signaling pathway (hsa04010), which play important roles in the inflammatory response and cell apoptosis.
