Figure 3B displays the top 20 signaling pathways with their corresponding p values. Cytoscape was utilized to incorporate components, core effect targets, and signaling pathways, resulting in the construction of a network diagram depicting the relationship between medicinal flavor components, core effect targets, and pathways (Figure 3C). The findings indicate that methylnissolin, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, formononetin, ononin, and other components may play a crucial role in the treatment of T2DM as key components of AR (Figure 4). This evidence concerns the gene AR and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
