Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing, ameliorating, or treating cancer. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating cancer including a lignan compound having a specific chemical structure (Chemical Formula 1); a health functional food composition for preventing or ameliorating cancer including the lignan compound; and a method for preventing, ameliorating, or treating cancer using the composition.Further, the present invention relates to a use of the lignan compound in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition or a health functional food composition for preventing, ameliorating, or treating cancer.
Abstract:
A composition comprising a purified extract isolated from Pseudolysimachion rotundum var. subintegrum containing abundant amount of active ingredient or the compounds isolated therefrom as an active ingredient for treating a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the use thereof. Inventive purified extract and compounds showed potent anti-COPD activity without beta-2-receptor agonistic response through various in vivo tests as well as in vitro test. Therefore, it can be used as the therapeutics or functional health food for treating and preventing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition includes any of an extract of Magnoliae flos, a fraction or an active fraction obtained by fractionation thereof with an organic solvent, and a compound separated therefrom as an active ingredient. The extract of Magnoliae flos, the fraction or the active fraction obtained by fractionation thereof with an organic solvent, or the compound separated therefrom inhibits the expression of MUC5AC induced by TNF-α and the promoter activity in human lung cancer mucosal cells (H292), reduces the number of inflammatory cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease mouse model, inhibits the production of reactive oxygen species, and reduces the cytokines; and therefore are effective in preventing or treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
