  • Publication number: 20160279088
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions for promoting differentiation or proliferation of erythrocytic cells containing a monoacetyl diacylglycerol compound as an active ingredient, and pharmaceutical compositions and health functional food compositions for preventing, treating or alleviating erythrocytopenia containing the same. The monoacetyldiacylglycerol compound of the present invention is effective in promoting differentiation or proliferation of erythrocytic cells. The compound can overcome the side effects of the conventional anemia treatment medicines, and has less toxicity. Thus, the compound can be effectively used for preventing, treating or alleviating oligocythemia.

  • Publication number: 20160256428
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition containing a monoacetyldiglyceride compound as an active ingredient, for inhibiting blood cancer or metastasis, and a use thereof. The monoacetyldiglyceride compound according to the present invention has excellent effects of inhibiting the expression of IL-4 and inhibiting the activity of STAT-6, and thereby is capable of overcoming side effects of currently used blood cancer or metastasis inhibiting agents. Also, the monoacetyldiglyceride compound is a non-toxic compound having superior therapeutic effects and thus can be useful as a composition for preventing, treating, or improving blood cancer and metastasis.

  • Publication number: 20160199338
    Abstract: The invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions, as well as health functional food compositions and quasi-drug compositions, for preventing, treating, or improving rheumatoid arthritis, comprising a monoacetyldiacylglycerol compound as an active ingredient. The monoacetyldiacylglycerol of the invention is effective in inhibiting the phosphorylation of STAT-3 known to be a therapeutic target for rheumatoid arthritis. As the monoacetyldiacylglycerol is an effective therapeutic agent without toxicity, the monoacetyldiacylglycerol can overcome the side effects of the medicines currently used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Thus, the monoacetyldiacylglycerol can be used for preventing, treating or improving rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Publication number: 20160199339
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing a monoacetyldiacylglycerol compound as an active ingredient for preventing or treating asthma, and a functional health food composition for preventing or treating asthma. The monoacetyldiacylglycerol compound of the present invention inhibits the expression of IL-4 in EL-4 cells, which are mouse T cell lymphoma cells, reduces hypersensitivity of airway in an asthma-induced animal model, and inhibits the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the bronchial tube. In addition, the compounds of the present invention inhibit the generation of IgE in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, have an excellent effect of inhibiting the expression of Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13) in the lung, thereby overcome side effects of the currently used therapeutic agents for asthma, have no toxicity, and exhibit a superior therapeutic effect, and thus can be useful as a composition for preventing, treating, and alleviating asthma.
