  • Publication number: 20110224276
    Abstract: Optical isomers of phenylpropionic acid drugs are a mixture having R-type optical isomer and S-type optical isomer at a ratio of 10:1-1:10 by weight, wherein the ratio of 1:1 is excluded. A use of the optical isomers includes that the R-type optical isomer is used for manufacturing anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs and the mixture having the R-type optical isomer and the S-type optical isomer at a ratio of 10:1-1:10 by weight, wherein the ratio of 1:1 is excluded, is used for manufacturing anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs. The therapeutic indexes of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs of the present optical isomers are all higher than those of the S-type optical isomers and the racemate.

  • Publication number: 20110206636
    Abstract: The use of sesquiterpenes and, in particular sesquiterpene lactone endoperoxides, such as artemisinin and analogs thereof, for the treatment of hepatitis C virus infections. Artemisinin, analogs of artemsisnin and some crude Artemisia extracts were tested in vitro against DNA-viruses, retro-viruses and Flavivirida, (an important family of human and animal RNA pathogens). These compounds were also screened for anti-tumor activity. Strong activity of artemisinin was noticed against the bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). As pestiviruses, such as BVDV, share many similarities with hepatitis C virus (HCV), we can conclude that endoperoxides in general and artemisinin more specifically have efficacy as treatments for hepatitis C viral infections.
