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.

Abstract: A class of quinolinic sulfide derivatives of formula I are potent and specific antagonists at the strychnine insensitive glycine bitding site on the NMDA receptor complex with an pharmacological advantageous profile. They may be useful in treatment or prevention of neuro-degenerative disorders. Particularly, the compounds included in the present invention are especially useful for minimizing damage of the central nervous system arising as a consequence of ischemic or hypoxic condition such as stroke, hypoglycemia, cerebral ischemia, cardiac arrest, and physical trauma. They are also useful in prevention of chronic neurodegenerative disorders including epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and Parkinsonism. By virtue of their NMDA receptor antagonist properties, the present compounds may also use as anticonvulsant, analgesic, antidepressant, anxiolytic, and antischizophrenic agent. Formula I ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R are defined in specification.
