== Rivaroxaban ==
Rivaroxaban, or Xarelto, is a drug used to prevent or treat blood clots (it is an anti- coagulant) by inhibition of Factor Xa- an enzyme found in the coagulation cascade. Although still under development by Bayer, test results suggest that Rivaroxaban is more effective than current medication in use.

Gossypol, C30H30O8, (IUPAC 2,2′-bis-(Formyl-1,6,7-trihydroxy-5-isopropyl-3-methylnaphthalene) is a pigment named after the species of cotton, ''Gossypium L., Malvaceae'', that bears the seeds from which it is extracted. Initially it was known only as an undesirable toxin found in cotton-oil containing food-stuffs, it was thought to have potential uses as a rubber antioxidant, a stabilizer for vinyl polymers and as a potential insecticide. Today it is known primarily as a male oral contraceptive after the discovery of remarkable fertility suppressive effects in men (see history subheading).

= History =

In 1929, to investigate anecdotal evidence that families who cooked with crude cottonseed oil produced fewer children, a large scale Chinese fertility survey was carried out. This study concluded that it was this oil that affected male fertility and it was determined that gossypol in the cotton seed oil could be used as a contraceptive. During the 1970s over 8,000 men were tested using this type of contraceptive and it was found that men taking a daily gossypol pill had reliable contraception. '[I'd like to see sources for the previous paragraph please]'

In late 2005, a team of researchers at Sunderland University found that Gossypol has been seen to help stop the spread of psoriasis, a fairly common and unpleasant, genetic skin condition, as well as reducing inflammation in sufferers. Psoriasis suffers have a genetic fault that means that under certain conditions their skin starts to produce far too many skin cells and affects more than 1 million Britains. (Source; BBC article)

=Uses and Side Effects=
In 1970s, the Chinese proposed gossypol as a drug for male contraceptive use. Studies conducted by the International Organiszation for Chemical Sciences in Development has shown that 40 of the 70 purified forms of gossypol were just as active as the original gossypol.1

Among the side effects assiciated with the use of gossypol, the most serious was hypokalemic paralysis. Hypokalemic paralysis2 is also known that familial paralysis and occurs due to low levels of potassium in the body. During an attack of paralysis, muschle weakness results in arms and legs. In more severe cases, this may also affect swallowing and breathing, which can be fatal.

Also, recovery of those who used gossypol is only 75% and can lead to other related symptoms like smaller testicular colume, and elevated follicle stimulating hormone concentrations.1

= Known Hazards =

May be irritating to gastrointestinal tract. Large doses have caused edema of lungs, shortness of breath and paralysis in animals. Toxic to nonruminant animals such as humans, by reducing the capacity the blood has to carry oxygen. (source; Merck Index)

A large scale trial of gossypol was carried out in China. A high rate of hypokalemia was shown is test subjects. Hypokalemia is where there is low levels of potassium in the blood which effects the transmission between muscles and nerves. Scientists tried to remedy this by giving male monkeys gossypol along with a daily potassium tablet however this did not work. Therefore hypokalemia is an evitable side effect.

A man who uses the drug could become partially if not fully infertile the longer they used the drug.

Gossypol, C30H30O8, (IUPAC 2,2′-bis-(Formyl-1,6,7-trihydroxy-5-isopropyl-3-methylnaphthalene) is a pigment named after the species of cotton, ''Gossypium L., Malvaceae'', that bears the seeds from which it is extracted. Initially it was known only as an undesirable toxin found in cotton-oil containing food-stuffs, it was thought to have potential uses as a rubber antioxidant, a stabilizer for vinyl polymers and as a potential insecticide. Today it is known primarily as a male oral contraceptive after the discovery of remarkable fertility suppressive effects in men (see history subheading).

'''Vitamin c''' is also called '''L-ascorbate''', it is known as the '''ascorbic acid''', which is the only vitamin is ''water-soluble'', unlike other vitamins, most of them are ''fat-soluble''. Unlike most mammals, humans do not have the ability to make their own vitamin C. so we have to obtain vitamin C daily in our diet. It is very essetial to all living animals to form the ''metabolic'' reactions and as for all living organisms, plants in this case, human is the only excption. Vitamin C ''deficiency accelerates aging'', this is because it act as an ''antioxidant'' in the body, so it protect the living body from over oxdative stress. Finally it also involves in sereval ''vital'' ''enzymatic'' reactions.
But the daily requirement of vitamin c is still under debating since the human body dose not store any vitamin c.
