Abstract

Melanogenesis is involved in the pigmentation of the hair, eyes, and skin in living organisms. Various signaling pathways stimulated by ${\alpha}-MSH$, SCF/c-Kit, $Wnt/{\beta}-catenin$, nitric oxide and ultraviolet activate melanocyte, leading to melanin production by tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein (TRP)-1, and TRP-2 expressed via the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF). However, the abnormal regulation of melanogenesis causes dermatological issues such as graying hair and vitiligo. Therefore, the activators that promote melanogenesis are crucial for the prevention of graying hair and the treatment of hypopigmentary disorders. Many melanogenesis stimulators have been studied for the development of novel drugs derived from synthesized compounds and natural products. Here, in addition to providing a description of a common signaling pathway in the melanogenesis of graying hair and the vitiligo process for the development of novel anti-hair graying agents, this article reviews natural herbs and the active ingredients that promote melanin synthesis as a pharmaceutical agent for the treatment of vitiligo. In particular, compounds such as Imatinib and Sugen with a stimulating effect on melanogenesis as a side effect of the drugs, are also introduced. Recent advances in research on natural plant extracts such as Polygonum multiflorum, Rhynchosia Nulubilis, Black oryzasativa, and Orysa sartiva, widely known as traditional and medicinal extracts, are also reviewed.

멜라닌 생성은 생체 내에서 모발, 눈 및 피부의 색소 침착과 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져있다. 자외선 뿐만아니라 ${\alpha}-MSH$, SCF/c-Kit, $Wnt/{\beta}-catenin$ 및 산화 질소 신호 전달 경로와 같은 다양한 외부 인자가 멜라닌 세포를 자극하여 microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF)에 의하여 발현되는 tyrosinase, tyrosinase 관련 단백질 (TRP)-1 및 TRP-2에 의하여 멜라닌이 생성된다. 그러나 멜라닌 생성의 비정상적인 조절은 모발 백발화와 백반증과 같은 피부병 문제를 유발한다. 따라서, 멜라닌 생성을 촉진하는 활성제는 모발 백발화의 예방 및 저 색소증 치료에 매우 중요하다. 많은 멜라닌 생성 자극제가 합성 화합물 및 천연물질로부터 유래한 신규 약물의 개발을 위해 연구되어 왔다. 여기서는, 새로운 항 백발화제의 개발을 위한 백발화 및 백반증 과정의 melanogenesis에 공통적인 신호 경로에 대한 기술 뿐만 아니라 백반증의 치료를 위한 약제로 멜라닌합성을 촉진하는 천연 약초와 그 활성 성분에 대하여 기술한다. 특히, 약물의 부작용으로 melanogenesis에 자극 효과가 있는 Imatinib 및 Sugen와 같은 화합물에 대하여 소개한다. 뿐만 아니라, 민간의 전통약제로 널리 알려진 적하수오, 흑임자, 흑미, 서목태, 현미와 같은 천연 식물추출물에 대한 최근 연구에 대하여 기술한다.
