Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
antiviral agent  A substance that destroys or inhibits replication of viruses.
insulin-sensitizing drug  An agent which overcomes insulin resistance by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma).
anti-HIV agent  An antiviral agent that destroys or inhibits the replication of the human immunodeficiency virus.
anti-HIV agent  An antiviral agent that destroys or inhibits the replication of the human immunodeficiency virus.
Applications:
antiinfective agent  A substance used in the prophylaxis or therapy of infectious diseases.
antispasmodic drug  A drug that suppresses spasms. These are usually caused by smooth muscle contraction, especially in tubular organs. The effect is to prevent spasms of the stomach, intestine or urinary bladder.
anti-inflammatory agent  Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects.
antidepressant  Antidepressants are mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions.
laxative  An agent that produces a soft formed stool, and relaxes and loosens the bowels, typically used over a protracted period, to relieve constipation. Compare with cathartic, which is a substance that accelerates defecation. A substances can be both a laxative and a cathartic.
geroprotector  Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.
cardiovascular drug  A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume.
dermatologic drug  A drug used to treat or prevent skin disorders or for the routine care of skin.
antiparkinson drug  A drug used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
insulin-sensitizing drug  An agent which overcomes insulin resistance by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma).
cardiovascular drug  A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
