PURPOSE: A highly-safe extracted fraction derived from plants, microorganisms or animals having an apoptosis inducing action and to offer an apoptosis inducing agent and an anticancer agent containing the fraction, a functional food or beverage containing the fraction as a constituting component and a method for manufacturing them are provided. CONSTITUTION: A apoptosis inducing agent is made into a pharmaceutical preparation by combining the glycerolipid and/or glyceroglycolipid such as those/that derived from plants, microorganisms or animals which are/is effective component(s) with a known pharmaceutical carrier. Generally, the apoptosis inducing compound(s) such as glycerolipid and/or glyceroglycolipid are/is compounded with a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid or solid carrier followed, if necessary, by adding solvent, dispersing agent, emulsifier, buffer, stabilizer, vehicle, binder, disintegrating agent, lubricant, etc. thereto whereupon a solid preparation such as tablets, granules, diluted powder, pulverized preparation and capsules and liquid preparation such as normal liquid preparation, suspension and emulsion can be prepared. Alternatively, the compound(s) may be made into a dry preparation which can be converted into liquid by addition of a suitable carrier thereto before actual use. |
