Currently, there are many relevant studies using mice as an animal model. However, a large coefficient of variation for weight in mice is not appropriate for endocrine-related studies, compared with rats; therefore, it is necessary to identify an appropriate experimental model in rats. In this study, cyclophosphamide combined with busulfan was used to establish an animal model. We compared several common modeling methods using chemotherapeutic drugs, cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, and 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide (VCD), and we found that the combination of cyclophosphamide and busulfan was more effective in establishing a POI model in rats with few side effects by analyzing general physical conditions, pathological tissue sections of heart, liver, lung, spleen, kidney, uterus, and ovary, serum hormone levels, and follicle counts; thus, providing a more reliable model basis for subsequent studies.The indispensable role of Beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1) in Amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques generation and Aβ-mediated synaptic dysfunctions makes it a crucial target for therapeutic intervention in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In order to find out the potential inhibitors of BACE1, the present study focused on five phytochemicals from Pueraria tuberosa, namely, daidzin, genistin, mangiferin, puerarin, and tuberosin. A molecular docking study showed that all five phytochemicals presented the strongest BACE1 inhibition. Integrated molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations demonstrated that all five natural compounds have stable and favorable energies causing strong binding with the pocket site of BACE1 on 50 ns. All these molecules also passed Lipinski's rule of five. To validate the molecular modeling base
