Subsequently, potential active ingredients of GZFLD against MASLD were screened out via affinity ultrafiltration coupled with liquid chromatography\u2013tandem mass spectrometry (AUF\u2010LC\u2010MS\/MS) targeting multiple enzymes, including pancreatic lipase (PL), cyclooxygenase\u20102 (COX\u20102), proprotein convertase subtilisin\/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), and interleukin\u20106 (IL\u20106). Finally, molecular docking simulations, enzyme inhibition assays, and cell experiments were performed to validate the activities of the candidate components.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The results demonstrated that GZFLD significantly alleviated lipid accumulation and oxidative stress in the HepG2 model of MASLD, and a total of 18 potential bioactive ingredients were identified in GZFLD. Among them, benzoylpaeoniflorin, galloylpaeoniflorin, and ellagic acid are the main active compounds of GZFLD against MASLD. Furthermore, the results of molecular docking revealed that these components could strongly bind their corresponding target by various forces. The result of COX\u20102 inhibition assay indicated that ellagic acid exhibited a strong COX\u20102 inhibitory activity. Moreover, the results of cell verifications implied that ellagic acid and benzoylpaeoniflorin exhibited significant therapeutic potential on MASLD by modulating lipid metabolism and inflammatory
