3D Molecular docking model of the 12 key active ingredients with IL-6 protein. The key active ingredient is shown as the stick. Gray, red, white, orange, and purple stick represents an atom of C, O, H, P, and N, respectively. Protein IL-6 is represented as a flat strip, of which yellow strip represents amino acid residues having interaction with the key active ingredient. A to L represents key active ingredients of quercetin, boswellic acid, catechin, carotenoid, kaempferol, paeoniflorin, naringenin, formononetin, stigmasterol, ellagic acid, calycosin, and liquiritin respectively.
