The present invention relates to a transthyretin tetramer stabilizing agent including glabridin, glabrene, and glabrol, and to a preventing agent or progression suppressing agent for transthyretin amyloidosis including glabridin, glabrene, and glabrol.

Abstract: Provided are a transthyretin tetramer stabilizing agent and a preventing agent or progression suppressing agent for transthyretin amyloidosis. The present invention relates to a transthyretin tetramer stabilizing agent including a hydrophobic licorice extract containing a licorice glabra polyphenol, and to a preventing agent or progression suppressing agent for transthyretin amyloidosis including a hydrophobic licorice extract containing a licorice glabra polyphenol.

Abstract: A temperature-indicating medium uses an emulsion that maintains high transparency at a room temperature even if the emulsion contains a high molecular weight fat, and that, after being solidified, is reliably separated into an aqueous phase and an oil phase when the temperature is raised to a predetermined temperature. A temperature-indicating medium includes an emulsion in a liquid form at a room temperature, solidified when cooled to a predetermined temperature, and melted and phase-separated when a temperature is raised from the solidified temperature, wherein the emulsion has water, a fat, an emulsifier, a polyhydric alcohol, and a charge neutralization agent, and an aqueous phase ratio which is a ratio of a sum of the water, the polyhydric alcohol, and the charge neutralization agent, relative to the total amount of the water, the fat, the emulsifier, the polyhydric alcohol, and the charge neutralization agent, is 10 to 50% by mass.
