Abstract

Water chestnut is fruits of Trapa natans var. bispinosa grown wild in Korea. In this study, water chestnut was investigated for anti-pigmentation. Treatment with ethanolic extracts of water chestnut significantly reduced production of melanin in α-MSH simulated B16F10 cells. At 200 ㎍/mL ethanolic extracts of water chestnut, melanin contents were repressed by 43.26% compared to the control group. Additionally, ethanolic extracts of water chestnut reduced expression and activity of tyrosinase, key enzyme in melanogenesis, in α-MSH simulated B16F10 cells. Ethanolic extracts of water chestnut downregulated tyrosinase activity and expression to 23.65% and 62.35%, respectively. These results suggest that ethanolic extracts of water chestnut might be used as a promising whitening ingredients for inhibition of α-MSH-induced melanin synthesis and pigmentation.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 자생하고 있는 Trapa natans var. bispinosa 열매인 마름(water chestnut)의 anti-pigmentation 효능을 확인하였다. 마우스 유래 melanocytes인 B16F10세포에 마름 70% 에탄올 추출물을 처리하여 멜라닌의 생성량을 확인한 결과 200 ㎍/mL 추출물을 처리시 100 ng/mL α-MSH를 처리한 대조군 (100%) 대비 43.26%로 멜라닌생성억제를 확인하였다. 또한 멜라닌합성에 주요한 단백질인 tyrosinase의 활성 및 발현을 100 ng/mL α-MSH를 처리한 대조군(100%) 대비 tyrosinase의 활성은 23.65%, tyrosinase의 발현은 62.35%로 억제됨을 확인하였다. 본 연구결과를 통해 마름 70% 에탄올 추출물은 α-MSH에 의한 melanin 생성을 방지하여 미백 기능성 소재로써 가치가 있는 것으로 사료된다.
