Exploring the mechanism of Yixinyin for myocardial infarction by weighted co-expression network and molecular docking

Abstract Yixinyin, the traditional Chinese medicine, has the effects of replenishing righteous qi, and promoting blood circulation to eliminate blood stagnation. It is often used to treat patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). The purpose of our study is to explore the key components and ta...
