摘要:
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing polysaccharides isolated from Curcuma xanthorrhiza, including steps of: (S1) preparing a powder of Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.; (S2) extracting the powder with an organic solvent, and then filtering or centrifuging to obtain a residue; (S3) extracting the residue to prepare a solution containing polysaccharides; (S4) removing starch by adding starch-hydrolyzing enzyme to the polysaccharides-containing solution; (S5) precipitating the polysaccharides after the step (S4); and (S6) purifying the polysaccharides after the step (S5), polysaccharides obtained according to the manufacturing method, and a pharmaceutical composition in eluding the polysaccharides as effective component. The polysaccharides according to the present invention may be very effectively used in drugs and functional foods for stimulating macrophage activity, preventing and treating immunological diseases including cancer, and enhancing immunity after the treatment of the immunological diseases.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the novel use of lignan compounds represented by Formula I. More particularly, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing a brain disease, comprising a lignan compound represented by Formula I or a Myristica fragrans extract as an active ingredient, as well as the method and use for treating or preventing a brain disease using the lignan compound. The lignan compound represented by Formula I has the effects of antioxidation, brain cell protection and antiinflammation. Accordingly, said lignan compound will be highly useful for treating or preventing a brain disease.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of lignan compounds for treating or preventing an inflammatory disease. More particularly, it relates to a method for preventing or treating an inflammatory disease, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of macelignan represented by Chemical Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The lignan compound has the effect of inhibiting inflammatory reactions by inhibiting the production or expression of inflammation mediators NO, iNOS, PGE2, COX-2 and TNF-α and by treating or preventing inflammatory disease in vivo. Accordingly, the lignan compound or a Myristica fragrans extract will be highly useful for the treatment or prevention of an inflammatory disease.

The present invention relates to a novel use of lignan compounds, which are isolated and purified from nutmeg or the aril of nutmeg for anti-wrinkle, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a novel use for anti-wrinkle of an extract of the nutmeg or an extract of the aril of the nutmeg, fragrin A, austobailignan 7, licarin E, and macelignan. The extracts and lignan compounds of the present invention have activities in suppressing collagen degradation enzyme-1 (MMP-I, matrix metalloprotei-nase-1) and formation of new collagen (type-1 procollagen), thereby having effect on inhibitng wrinkle caused by photoaging. Accordingly, the extracts and lignan compounds of the present invention may be useful for preventing or treating wrinkle caused by photoaging.

The present invention relates to a method and composition for treating acne using lignan compounds represented by Formula 1. More particularly, the invention relates to an antibacterial composition against acne-causing bacteria, containing lignan compounds represented by Formula 1, as well as a method for treating acne using the same. The lignan compounds represented by Formula 1 are excellent not only in the antibacterial activity of, inhibiting the growth of acne-causing bacteria, but also in thermal stability. Accordingly, the lignan compounds may be useful as antibacterial agents against the acne-causing bacteria, and acne treatment agents.
