We identified the effective components and the underlying mechanisms of Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill, COM) extract against atherosclerosis. The effective components of COM extract were identified with UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Network pharmacology was performed. A rat model of atherosclerosis induced by high-fat emulsion combined with vitamin D₃ was established. The anti-atherosclerosis effect of COM extract was evaluated from various aspects such as blood lipid regulation, anti-oxidative stress, anti-inflammatory response, and vascular protection function. We identified 14 serum components of COM extract using UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Through prediction, 573 targets were obtained, among which 224 targets were atherosclerosis specific targets. The key targets included GSK3β, ESR1, EGFR, and HSP90AA1. The key signaling pathway was PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Pharmacodynamics analysis showed that COM extract reduced the levels of TC, TG, and LDL-C as well as ALT and AST, while increased the level of HDL-C. Mechanistically, COM extract significantly increased serum SOD and GSH-Px activities, but decreased MDA content in atherosclerosis rats, showing antioxidant effects. Meanwhile, COM extract significantly down-regulated the levels of pro-inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and CRP, but up-regulated anti-inflammatory factor IL-10. Additionally, COM extract increased the levels of NO, eNOS, and 6-keto-PGF1α; whereas, decreased the levels of ET-1 and TXB₂. Furthermore, COM extract significantly inhibited the mRNA and protein levels of EGFR, p-PI3K, p-AKT, GSK-3β, Bax, and Caspase-3 as well as the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. Conclusively, COM extract exerts hypolipidemic, anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic and vascular endothelium protective effects on atherosclerosis rat model, which may be related to the inhibition of EGFR/PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway.
