Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for the prevention and treatment of postmenopausal syndrome containing the step of administering a pharmaceutically effective dose of the Aceriphyllum rossii or its fractions to a subject. The present inventors confirmed that the Aceriphyllum rossii extract or its fractions of the invention prepared by using water, alcohol or a mixed solvent thereof could promote the expression of the promoter containing estrogen responsive element (ERE) and accelerated the growth of MCF-7, the human breast tissue originated cell line, suggesting that they had estrogen activity. The inventors further confirmed that the extract or its fractions of the invention had the effect of promoting osteocyte differentiation, so that they could be effectively used for the prevention and treatment of postmenopausal syndrome such as hot flush, osteoporosis and phlebothrombosis caused by estrogen deficiency.
Abstract:
An anti c-Met antibody, a composition comprising the antibody, and a method for preventing or treating cancer by administering the composition is provided.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and treatment of cancer comprising daurinol as an active ingredient, more precisely a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and treatment of cancer comprising daurinol isolated from the medicinal plant of Mongolia, Haplophyllum dauricum or Haplophyllum cappadocicum, as an active ingredient. Daurinol can selectively block the S phase of cancer cell cycle to disturb the cycle and induce apoptosis stepwise, resulting in anticancer effect. Therefore, daurinol of the present invention can be used as a positive control chemical in the research and development field of cancer biology especially for cancer therapy and prevention. Daurinol also can be a promising candidate for a novel cell cycle blocker and a novel apoptosis inducer which could be effectively used for the prevention and treatment of cancer in the end.
