重要靶标
Chinese to English
Other
Medical: Pharmaceuticals
the whole sentence is "经计算机虚拟筛选，发现系列新奇结构的三萜化合物与多个神经退行性疾病相关的重要靶标结合，如beta-分泌酶等" I don't understand is this phrase mean those triterpenoid compounds can cure the neurodegenerative disease or means they have similar chemical structures or something else? :S

key targets
The word key not only means important but also evokes the image of opening a lock, similar to solving a problem. Neurodegenerative diseases are the problem discussed in the paragraph.
Beta-secretase enzyme is important in secretion of beta-amyloid, the components that form plague lesion in patients of Alzheimer's disease. Thus if some compound can bind to this enzyme (and perhaps inhibit its activity), one hopes that symptoms of the neurodegenerative diseases can be ameliorated or the diseases can be cured. Thus, problem solved.
