Abstract:
PURPOSE: A pharmaceutical composition containing hematein which is obtainable by extraction of Heartwood of Caesalpinia sappan or commercially as an active ingredient is provided. Because the hematein exhibits LDL-antioxidant activity, remarkably reduces cholesterol in blood and strongly inhibits liver microsome ACAT activity, the composition can be effectively used in prevention and therapeutic treatment of atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia. CONSTITUTION: The composition for preventing and treating atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia in mammals contains an effective amount of hematein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier as an active component. The hematein inhibits the activity of acyl-CoA : cholesterol acyltransferase or acts as LDL-antioxidant to give an effect on preventing and treating hyperlipidemia.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containing neohesperidin dihydrochalcone generally used as a sweetener is provided for preventing and treating arteriosclerosis, hyperlipemia, liver diseases, and glycosemia. CONSTITUTION: Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone(C28H36O15, M.W. 612.60) is obtained by extracting from the rind or outer layer of grapefruit or by chemically changing Naringin, and it is sweeter 1,500 to 2,000 times than sugar per unit weight. Therefore it has been usually used as a sweetener not a medicinal material. The composition containing an effective amount of neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, that is, 0.1 to 500 mg/kg, preferably 1 to 100 mg/kg a day, is orally or topically administrated into a patient and the amount of administration may be variable by patient's age, weight, sex, health, diet, severity of disease, and so on. The composition containing neohesperidin dihydrochalcone may be added into foods and drinks in an amount of 0.01 to 20 wt.%, preferably 0.1 to 5 wt.% of diosmin.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containing naringin or naringenin for inhibition of the platelet coagulation is provided, which prevents coagulation of platelets caused by exposed collagen when blood vessel endothelial cells is damaged; so which can prevents and cures formation of atheroma, or thrombosis; and which can be used in a medicine and food. CONSTITUTION: A naringin or naringenin is extracted from oranges(a grapefruit, a citron, a lemon, a orange, etc) or manufactured from well-known synthetic process. A pharmaceutical composition as an inhibitor to platelet coagulation comprises of naringin or naringenin as an effective ingredient and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, which can also contains diluents, disintegrators, sweeteners, lubricants, perfume; and which can be made in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions, emulsions, syrup, solution or parenteral preparations. A dosage of the composition for inhibition of the platelet coagulation containing naringin or naringenin is 0.5-100mg/kg, desirably 2-10mg/kg. The naringin or naringenin can be added in food or beverages with same purposes.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A pharmaceutical composition and functional food and drink comprising tannin or phenol-type compounds derived from tannin are provided, for treating and preventing hyper lipidemia, arteriosclerosis and a liver disease. CONSTITUTION: The pharmaceutical composition comprises tannin, gallic acid, ellagic acid or their mixture in effective amount; and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. The functional food or drink comprises 0.01-20 wt%, preferably 0.1-5 wt% of tannin, gallic acid, ellagic acid or their mixture. Tannin, gallic acid and ellagic acid reduce the concentration of serum GOT (glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase), GPT (glutamate-pyruvate transminase), gamma GTP (gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase) and a lipid in blood, and inhibit the damage of a liver cell and the formation of a fatty liver. Also tannin, gallic acid and ellagic acid strongly inhibit the macrophage-lipid complex from being deposited or adsorbed onto the intra trial surface.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition is provided to help to improve the blood flow by preventing a platelet cohesion and a formation of a thrombus at the same time. CONSTITUTION: The hesperidins or the hesperetin is effective to prevent and treat the sclerosis of the arteries by the platelet cohesion, and to improve of the blood flow by preventing the platelet cohesion generated by collagen. The composition for the platelet cohesion prevention is able to prescribe as a non-oral administration or to prescribe as an oral administration, and to prescribe the hesperidins or the hesperetin 0.5 mg or 100 mg for 1 kg per a day.
