The eternal or ultimate goal of medicinal chemistry is to find most effective ways to treat various diseases and extend human beings' life as long as possible. Human being is a biological entity. To realize such an ultimate goal, the inputs or breakthroughs from the advances in biological science are no doubt most important that may even drive medicinal science into a revolution. In this review article, we are to address this from several different angles.
药物化学的永恒或最终目标是找到治疗各种疾病的最有效方法,并尽可能延长人类寿命。人类是一个生物实体。为了实现这一最终目标,生物科学进展带来的投入或突破无疑最为重要,甚至可能推动医学科学发生一场革命。在这篇综述文章中,我们将从几个不同的角度来探讨这一问题。
