Background Myocardial infarction (MI) is characterized by high morbidity. In this study, we aimed to elucidate potential targets of Shengxian Decoction (SXD) against MI. Methods Pairing SXD active ingredients and MI was conducted using the Chinese Medicine System Pharmacological Database, Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), STRING databases. The effects on were validated in vitro . Molecular docking verified cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA). Results A total 40 28 MI-related obtained. Cross-analysis cell death-related genes identified two crucial ferroptosis-related targets, namely, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1). cobalt chloride (CoCl 2 )-induced hypoxic H9c2 cells, could remarkably improve viability inhibit death. Meanwhile, treatment significantly affected markers cells. CETSA results showed that quercetin had good binding activity with DPP4 HMOX1. Conclusion Important ingredient exert anti-ferroptosis protective roles through targeting (DPP4/HMOX1), thereby contributing role
