The IPA core analysis of the molecular targets of TQ involved in atherosclerosis revealed that 27 molecules (ACE, CA1, CA12, CA13, CA14, CA2, CA5B, CA6, CA7, CA9, CNR1, CYP2C19, IL6, IMPDH2, MTNR1A, MTNR1B, NOS3, NR3C1, NR3C2, PDE7A, PGR, PPARA, PPARG, PTGS2, SOAT1, TLR9, XIAP) were involved in the regulation of atherosclerosis (Supplementary Figure S1). Here, XIAP is linked to atherosclerosis.
