If you don't mind getting rid of all of the whitespace between the 1st and 2nd fields in your second file when writing the output:
Code:
awk 'FNR==NR {wanted[NR] = $1; next}
 {      nf=split($1, f1, ",")
        for (i=1; i<=nf; i++) {
                sub("[(][^(]*[)]", "", f1[i])
                for (j in wanted) if (wanted[j] == f1[i]) {
                        $1=f1[i]
                        print
                }
        }
}' first_file second_file

produces
Code:
AST3 it is used in diabetes
GSTY4 it is used in diabetes
JST3 it is never applied in oedema

when given your two sample input files.
