The angiogenesis-associated diseases are cancer, diabetetic retinopathy, rheumatic arthritis, psoriasis, inflammation, endometriosis, aging or hemandioma. A pharmaceutical composition for suppressing angiogenesis contains biochanin A or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A functional composition containing Akiami paste shrimp extract is provided to suppress adipocyte differentiation in a human body and PPAR-gamma transcription. CONSTITUTION: A method for preparing a functional composition containing Akiami paste shrimp extract for anti-obesity comprises: a step of adding 0.1%(v/v) of protease to Akiami paste shrimp and hydrolyzing at 55°C for 2 hours; a step of heating the mixture at 100°C for 10 minutes and inactivating the protease; and a step of cooling the mixture and centrifuging to isolate supernatant. A functional composition for anti-obesity contains the extract.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containign sesamol or pharmaceutically acceptable salt is provided to suppress angiogenesis and to treat cancer, diabetic retinopathy, rheumatic arthritis, and psoriasis. CONSTITUTION: A composition for treating angiogenesis-associated diseases contains sesemol or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The angiogenesis-associated diseases are cancer, diabetic retinopaghy, rheumatic arthritis, psoriasis, inflammation, endometriosis, and hemandioma. The sesamol or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is contained in 0.1-10 wt%.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containing poly gamma glutamic acid for preventing and treating obesity is provided to suppress differentiation of adipocytes and to activate AMPK(5'AMP-activated protein kinase). CONSTITUTION: A composition for preventing and treating obesity contains poly gamma glutamic acid(PGA) as an active ingredient. The molecular weight of PGA is 100kDa to 15,000kDa. The composition is a pharmaceutical composition or food additive. The composition further contains pharmacologically acceptable carrier. The composition is manufactured in the form of powder, granules, tablets, capsules, suspension, emulsion, syrup, external use, suppository, or sterilized injection solution.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containing derivatives synthesized from decursin for preventing or treating obesity is provided to suppress fatty acid synthesis. CONSTITUTION: A composition for preventing or treating obesity contains decursinol benzoate which is synthedized from decursin. The decursinol benzoate suppresses fatty acid synthesis by AMPK(5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) activity. A method for synthesizing decursinol benzoate comprises: a step of performing enfleurage of dried Angelicae gigantis Radix in methanol at room temperature for seven days and filtering; a step of suspending the methanol extract in distilled water and isolating dichloromethane; and a step of freeze-drying and performing silicagel column chromatography to prepare six fraction.
Abstract:
A polysaccharide fraction for reducing blood sugar, which produced by fermenting the Ganoderma lucidum(KCTC 6532) is provided to improve the function related to insulin resistance and suppress the apoptosis of pancreatic beta cell. A method for manufacturing a polysaccharide fraction for reducing blood sugar comprises: a step of fermenting a ginseng with a Gnoderma lucidum; a step of filtering the fermented material with distilled water; and a step of mixing the filtered solution and ethanol and obtaining precipitate of polysaccharide fraction. The Ganoderma lucidum is Ganoderma lucidum(KCTC 6532) The polysaccharide fraction increases the activity of glucokinase in a hepatocyte, and increases the phosphorylation of AkT protein, activates AMPK(AMP-activated protein kinase), and suppress the apoptosis of pancreatic beta cell.
