There is clearly a need for novel breast cancer chemopreventive agents with enhanced potency and specificity with tittle or no side effects. To this end, several new chemical moieties have been synthesized or isolated from natural sources. In this reviewal we have described some agents currently in use or under development for treatment or prevention of breast cancer, as well as our own strategies for the discovery of natural product modulators of estrogen biosynthesis and function. In particulars bioassay-guided fractionation of active plant extracts is a unique method for identifying agents with novel mechanisms of action, some of which should be useful for prevention of human cancer. Further, with the advent of combinatorial chemistry and high throughput screening, even greater progress may now be expected with natural product leads.

Pim kinases are important targets for cancer therapies because they are mainly responsible for cancer metastasis and overall therapeutic treatment responses. Because of their unusual structural feature in the hinge region of the ATP-binding site, new binding motifs have been discovered and used for the development of Pim kinases inhibitors. The results of a screening of 5-membered heteroaromatic compounds and the effects of structural modifications on the inhibition of Pim kinases' activities showed the potential scaffold for Pim inhibitors. 1,3,4-Oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione was found as a new scaffold for Pim kinase inhibitors.

In continuation of the previous papers, the presence of alkaloid, flavonoid, iridoid, terpenoid, steroid and saponin were screened with the usual test methods in another 53 species of Korean medicinal plants. The result is presented in the Table I.

Recent progress of several kinds of compounds which have been synthesized or isolated from natural fungi for screening or conducting test as agricultural fungicides as well as some formulations for wood stain and decay control have been reviewed in this paper in China. Comments were pointed for Chinas further research and development of fungicides as well as pesticides.

The screening of 150 Chinese drugs which are most frequently prescribed in Korean traditional medicine showed that at least 30% of the drugs affected barbiturate-induced hypnosis. This effect was mainly attributable to the alteration of drug metabolism. Phytochemical works resulted in the isolation of furanocoumarins, lignans, sesquiterpenes and saponins as drug metabolism modifiers. The structure-activity relationship is discussed.
