Abstract: The present invention relates to a high throughput screening method of a binding inhibitor between caspase3 and xIAP and chromomycin screened using the same, and more specifically, the present invention provides a method for screening anticancer substance, the method comprising the steps of reacting caspase3 or xIAP and candidate inhibitors of the binding between caspase3 and xIAP on a biochip for detecting caspase3:xIAP interaction, and selecting a candidate substance inhibiting the binding of caspase3 to xIAP as an anticancer substance, and an anticancer agent inhibiting caspase3:xIAP binding, which is screened by the above method. According to present invention, it is possible to develop a target-oriented anticancer agent focused on xIAP and caspase3, apoptosis-related proteins and thus it can be applied to tailored medication and combination therapy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory disease containing the extracts of Magnolia obovata or fractions thereof as an active ingredient, more precisely, a composition for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory disease containing the extracts of Magnolia obovata fruits and floral buds extracted with alcohol or alcohol aqueous solution as a solvent and active fractions isolated from the same. The extracts and fractions of the present invention inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced nitric oxide (NO) generation significantly, have anti-inflammation activity and low cytotoxicity, and contain all of major effective components isolated from Magnolia obovata such as obovatol, honokiol and magnolol, so that they can be effectively used for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory disease.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition containing the extracts of Magnolia obovata Thunberg or fractions thereof for the prevention and treatment of cancer and for the inhibition of metastasis. Particularly, the extracts of Magnolia obovata Thunberg fruits and floral buds extracted with water, alcohol or a mixture thereof as a solvent and fractions isolated from the same inhibit metastasis by inhibiting migration of those cells over-expressing PRL-3 which plays an important role in cancer cell growth and migration and at the same time induce apoptosis of cancer cells, so that they can be effectively used as a composition for the prevention and treatment of cancer or a composition for the inhibition of metastasis.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel obovatol derivatives represented by Chemical Formula 1, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Having the ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and induce apoptosis in cancer cells, the derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful in the prevention and treatment of cancer and in the suppression of cancer metastasis. Also, a method for preparing the derivatives, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the derivatives as active ingredients are disclosed. wherein R1,R2 and R3 are as defined in the specification.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an anticancer composition, comprising obovatol, represented by the following Chemical Formula 1, obovatal, represented by the following Chemical Formula 2, and/or pharmaceutical salts thereof. The composition exhibits the activity of inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and suppressing the expression and activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and thus can be useful for the prophylaxis and treatment of cancer as well as for the inhibition of cancer metastasis.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an agent for preventing and treating cancer comprising an oxadiazole urea compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, below, as an effective ingredient. The oxadiazole urea compound effectively inhibits the growth of cancer cell lines and the activity of STAT3, and may be thus useful in the prevention and treatment of cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and the treatment of cancers containing diaryl-isoxazole derivatives as an effective ingredient. Diaryl-isoxazole derivatives of the present invention inhibit metastasis of breast cancer cell lines and angiogenesis, so that they can be produced as a metastasis inhibitor and further as a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and the treatment of angiogenesis related diseases including cancers, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, or angiogenesis diseases caused in eyeball, etc.
