Abstract  Objective To investigate the mechanism of Shenqi Dihuang Decoction in the treatment of IgA nephropathy by network pharmacology. Methods The effective active components of Shenqi Dihuang Decoction were obtained and their targets were predicted by using traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform. At the same time, IgA nephropathy disease targets were screened by online Mendelian inheritance in man database, GWAS database, and GeneCards database, and drug targets and disease targets were mapped to obtain common targets. Proteinprotein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed from common targets and analyzed for GO and KEGG functional enrichment. Results In this study, 68 active components of Shenqi Dihuang Decoction were screened out, 200 potential targets were predicted, and 2038 targets of IgA nephropathy were screened out. Among them, 96 targets of Shenqi Dihuang Decoction were involved in IgA nephropathy. A 96-node, 1985-edge PPI network model was constructed, in which the key targets were MAPK1, CXCL8, Akt1, IL-6, JUN, TP53, VEGFA, TNF, MMP9, and PTGS2. GO enrichment analysis involved positive transcriptional regulation of RNA polymerase negative regulation of apoptotic process and hypoxia response. In addition, KEGG enrichment analysis results involved various pathogenic microbial infection signaling pathways and TNF signaling pathway. Conclusion Shenqi Dihuang Decoction has synergistic effects on IgA nephropathy through multiple components, multiple targets and multiple pathways, providing certain reference and support for the clinical application of Shenqi Dihuang Decoction.
