Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
leprostatic drug  A substance that suppresses Mycobacterium leprae, ameliorates the clinical manifestations of leprosy, and/or reduces the incidence and severity of leprous reactions.
analgesic  An agent capable of relieving pain without the loss of consciousness or without producing anaesthesia. In addition, analgesic is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to cause a reduction of pain symptoms.
teratogenic agent  A role played by a chemical compound in biological systems with adverse consequences in embryo developments, leading to birth defects, embryo death or altered development, growth retardation and functional defect.
anti-HIV agent  An antiviral agent that destroys or inhibits the replication of the human immunodeficiency virus.
antiviral agent  A substance that destroys or inhibits replication of viruses.
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.
Applications:
antitussive  An agent that suppresses cough. Antitussives have a central or a peripheral action on the cough reflex, or a combination of both. Compare with expectorants, which are considered to increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory tract, so facilitating their removal by ciliary action and coughing, and mucolytics, which decrease the viscosity of mucus, facilitating its removal by ciliary action and expectoration.
anti-inflammatory drug  A substance that reduces or suppresses inflammation.
anti-inflammatory agent  Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects.
anticonvulsant  A drug used to prevent seizures or reduce their severity.
leprostatic drug  A substance that suppresses Mycobacterium leprae, ameliorates the clinical manifestations of leprosy, and/or reduces the incidence and severity of leprous reactions.
analgesic  An agent capable of relieving pain without the loss of consciousness or without producing anaesthesia. In addition, analgesic is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to cause a reduction of pain symptoms.
angiogenesis inhibitor  An agent and endogenous substances that antagonize or inhibit the development of new blood vessels.
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.
sedative  A central nervous system depressant used to induce drowsiness or sleep or to reduce psychological excitement or anxiety.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
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.
antipsoriatic  A drug used to treat psoriasis.
antifibrotic agent  Any agent which acts to reduce fibrosis.
