Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
immunosuppressive agent  An agent that suppresses immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-cells or by inhibiting the activation of helper cells. In addition, an immunosuppressive agent is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to diminish the extent and/or voracity of an immune response.
antibacterial agent  A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
insulin-sensitizing drug  An agent which overcomes insulin resistance by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma).
antifungal agent  An antimicrobial agent that destroys fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce.
antiviral agent  A substance that destroys or inhibits replication of viruses.
antifungal drug  Any antifungal agent used to prevent or treat fungal infections in humans or animals.
antifungal agent  An antimicrobial agent that destroys fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce.
antifungal drug  Any antifungal agent used to prevent or treat fungal infections in humans or animals.
ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitor  Any compound that inhibits one or more steps in the pathway leading to the synthesis of ergosterol.
antifungal agent  An antimicrobial agent that destroys fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce.
antifungal agent  An antimicrobial agent that destroys fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce.
ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitor  Any compound that inhibits one or more steps in the pathway leading to the synthesis of ergosterol.

In addition, an immunosuppressive agent is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to diminish the extent and/or voracity of an immune response.
bone density conservation agent  An agent that inhibits bone resorption and/or favor bone mineralization and bone regeneration. Used to heal bone fractures and to treat bone diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
antihypertensive agent  Any drug used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular hypertension regardless of pharmacological mechanism.
vasodilator agent  A drug used to cause dilation of the blood vessels.
insulin-sensitizing drug  An agent which overcomes insulin resistance by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma).
gastrointestinal drug  A drug used for its effects on the gastrointestinal system, e.g. controlling gastric acidity, regulating gastrointestinal motility and water flow, and improving digestion.
anti-asthmatic agent  Any compound that has anti-asthmatic effects.
antiemetic  A drug used to prevent nausea or vomiting. An antiemetic may act by a wide range of mechanisms: it might affect the medullary control centres (the vomiting centre and the chemoreceptive trigger zone) or affect the peripheral receptors.
antipsoriatic  A drug used to treat psoriasis.
dermatologic drug  A drug used to treat or prevent skin disorders or for the routine care of skin.
hypoglycemic agent  A drug which lowers the blood glucose level.
antifungal drug  Any antifungal agent used to prevent or treat fungal infections in humans or animals.
antifungal drug  Any antifungal agent used to prevent or treat fungal infections in humans or animals.
