Note:I have written the piece of code for replacing the values with in the [] brackets.
Issue: HSA:3269is getting replaced with value1,but rest of the values inside [] not getting replaced with value2,value3.

C#

using System.Linq;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;


namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {

            var pattern = @"\[(.*?)\]";
            var query = "H1-receptor antagonist [HSA:3269] heelo [PATH:hsa04080(3269)] world [xyz]";
            var matches = Regex.Matches(query, pattern);
            string ReplaceableValue = query;
            string[] array = { "value1", "value2", "value3" };
            foreach (Match m in matches)
            {
                System.Console.WriteLine(m.Groups[1]);
                for (int i = 0; i <= m.Length; i++)
                {

                    ReplaceableValue = ReplaceableValue.Replace(m.Value.ToString(), array[i]);
                }

            }
            System.Console.WriteLine(ReplaceableValue);

            System.Console.ReadLine();

You already have the solution. Just replace the Group with your Value. Hope it will help you.

C#

int i=0;
foreach (Match m in matches)
{
    System.Console.WriteLine(m.Groups[1]);
    //for (int i = 0; i <= m.Length; i++)
    {
       //ReplaceableValue = ReplaceableValue.Replace(m.Value.ToString(), array[i]);
       ReplaceableValue = ReplaceableValue.Replace(m.Groups[1].ToString(), array[i++]);
    }
}
System.Console.WriteLine(ReplaceableValue);
