Abstract: AIM: To study the multitarget effects of Chinese medicine Haitongpi tang on treating osteoarthritis from the view of chemical space.METHODS: Computation methods were performed to analyze chemical space of effective components of Haitongpi tang and drug drug-like databases.Some descriptor distributions were described and principal component analysis(PCA) were performed to map these multiple descriptor values into a 2D ppace.RESULTS: The effective components of Haitongpi tang had good diversity,which had druglike properties and composited a special subset of natural product compounds.CONCLUSION: The methods reveal directly the multitarget effects of Haitongpi tang on treating osteoarthritis,which is of great importance to find clues of potential synergism in Chinese medicine.

Key words: Haitongpi tang, diversity, chemical space, molecuar descripor, synergism
