Introduction to Traditional Medicine from the Sea (2011)

      Marine drugs is one important part of natural medicinal products. Abundant diversity of marine organisms is the treasure resources of novel natural products. In the class, I will introduce the basic knowledge on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, further development and combination with modern medicine.

Natural Products Chemistry

      In contrary to primary metabolites, secondary metabolites, also named as natural products, are those chemical compounds of metabolism that are not essential for normal growth, development or reproduction of an organism. These secondary metabolites exactly play an important role in life. The function or importance of these metabolites to the organism's development in ecological nature is well-established to be defense against predators, for interspecies competition, and to facilitate the reproductive processes. Secondary metabolites also present multifunctions in the bodies of life organism, such as the signal transmitter. The absence, deficiency or excessive amount of these secondary metabolites would make our organs dysfunctions. For example, Alzheimer disease is relative to the absence of dopamine.

      Plant secondary metabolites are of tremendous importance, both for the plant itself (for plant-environment interactions) and for humans due to their biological activities that can have therapeutic value. As we know, plants have a long history of use in the treatment of human disease. One of the famous examples is traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the quintessence of herb material medics that Chinese people have been used for centuries. Now, the botanical extracts of TCM have been regarded as a source of new and useful pharmaceutical. Many bioactive components have been identified from these herb materials under the effort of natural product chemists. They are also regarded as a target for synthetic organic chemists that can produce these molecules in vitro on larger scales.

 

     The class should be taken by the students who has learned gerenal chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. In the class, I will introduce the chemical and pharmaceutical properties of the bioactive components from natural sources. Based on the learning, students will understand what natural products chemistry is, and how to apply bioactive natural products in pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical industries.

Pharmacognosy

     Pharmacognosy is derived from Greek prefix “Pharmakon” and “gnosis”, which means the knowledge about the medicinal materials. The American Society of Pharmacognosy defines pharmacognosy as "the study of the physical, chemical, biochemical and biological properties of drugs, drug substances or potential drugs or drug substances of natural origin as well as the search for new drugs from natural sources." Since the beginning of the 20th century, "pharmacognosy" was used to define the branch of medicine sciences to deal with drugs in their crude, or unprepared, form. Till now, pharmacognosy becomes an interdisciplinary course, including botany, ethnobotany, marine biology, microbiology, herbal medicine, chemistry (phytochemistry), pharmacology and pharmacy practice. More importantly, during the period of time, many chemists and biochemists devoted themselves to the identification of principles of the medicinal materials, which were used to treat human diseases. These studies of chemicals derived from plants, micro-organisms, and even animals discover many new drug candidates derived from natural sources. More than one half of the drugs used in modern medicine are of botanical or natural origin. However, only about 10% of the plants and only 1% of the marine organisms have been properly studied. Therefore, natural products in pharmacognosy can enrich the drug therapy compendia with new safe and effective drugs.

Mass

Mass is one of the sensitive tools in the modern chemical analysis. It is applied in the fields of food/drug safety, drug discovery and biological chemistry. Students in the fields of chemistry and life sciences should be have full knowloges about the development and application of Mass technology, which will help them to do a good job on the fields mentioned above.
