Aging is divided into intrinsic aging and photo-aging. Intrinsic aging is naturally occurred as the time passed and photo-aging is induced by the UV radiation of skin. The main reason of aging is the free radicals and the degeneration of the cellular materials by free radicals. In this paper, we checked the anti-aging effects of Mallotus japonicus bark extracts. It has the ability to scavenge free radicals and the SOD like activity. Also, it reduced the cell damage by hydrogen peroxide treatment. Mallotus japonicus bark extracts showed the excellent activity on inhibiting the UV induced cell damage and DNA damage. In conclusion, Mallotus japonicus bark extracts can be used as active ingredients for anti-aging cosmetics.

The effects of different types of additives(sucrose fatty acid ester(SE), oligosaccharide and alum) on 40% nonwaxy rice starch gels stored at $20{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ were investigated by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, X-ray diffractometry and differential scanning calorimetry. The addition of SE retarded the retrogradation of gels throughout storage period and the antistaling effect of SE was increased with increasing concentration. Oligosaccharide(0.1%) inhibited the retrogradation, but oligosaccharide(0.1% or 0.5%) retarded the retrogradation at early stage of storage, and stimulated the retrogradation after 3 days. Alum of 0.1% level retarded the retrogradation, but 0.3% level activated the retrogradation after 24 hours and 0.5% level did after 12 hours. The effect of additives on the retrogradation of rice starch gels showed the different tendencies at the level of additives. On 0.1% level, the effect of those was similar but on 0.5%, the degree of retardation increased in order of oligosaccharide, SE1170, alum, no addition for up to 2 days of storage and SE1170, no addition, oligosaccharide, alum for 3 days of storage.

노화는 모든 다세포 유기물의 특징이다. 노화가 됨에 따라서 효소활성 및 면역반응의 감소와 과산화지질과 지방갈색물질의 축적, 효소와 염색질을 포함하는 단백질 구조의 변화, 호르몬계의 불균형 등이 일어난다. 그렇지만, 노화가 어떻게 일어나는지에 관하여는 현재까지 확실하지 않다. 본 연구진은 노화와 관련된 효소들에 관하여 연구를 하여 왔으며, 노화가 진행되는 동안의 효소의 활성을 유지시켜주거나, 또는 효소의 활성이 감소되는 것을 지연시켜 주는 물질을 찾고자 노력하였다. 그 가운데 하나로서, 고려인삼 추출물을 흰쥐에 기간별로 투여하여 효소활성의 차이, 열에 대한 안정성, 기질에 대한 친화력, 전기 영동 상의 이동성과 면역적인 반응을 대조군과 비교하였다. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphog-luconate dehydrogenase, glutathione redutease, glutathion peroxidase와 같은 노화와 관련된 효소들의 활성을 고려인삼 추출물을 1개월간 흰쥐에 ($60{\~}80$g)투여하여 대조군과 비교 조사하였으나, 별 차이가 없었다. 그러나 고려인삼 추출물을 15개월간 투여하였을 때에는 이러한 노화관련 효소들의 활성이 급격히 증가함이 ($70{\~}200\%$) 관찰되었다. 예견된 바와 같이, 효소의 열에 대한 안정성과 기질에 대한 친화력도 증가함이 관찰되었다. 그러나 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase의 경우에서 전기영동상의 차이 및 면역적인 반응은 대조군과 유사하였다. 이상의 결과는 고려인삼 추출물이 노화와 관련된 효소들의 활성이 감소되는 것을 지연시켜줄 수 있으며, 노화를 어느정도 지연시켜 줄 수 있음을 의미한다. 이와 같은 결과를 포함한 실험자료를 국제 인삼심포지움에서 발표할 것이다.$-tocopherol의 항 산화작용을 더욱 효과적으로 촉진 시킬 것으로 생각된다.-L(독성 호르몬-L)의 작용을 억제함으로서 암환자의 체중 감소를 방지하고, 식욕감퇴를 개선할것으로 생각된다.해되었으며, $Rb_{1}$은 장내의 효소와 tetracycline-resistantant bacteria에 의해 Rd와 2 종류의 미확인 물질로 분해되었다.xA_{2}$ synthetase 억제제인 imidazole의 효과와 유사하였다. 4.

Four different oligosaccharides used to determine their effects on gelatinization and retrogradation of Backsulgies(BSG), Korean traditional rice cake, were cyclodextrin, isomaltooligosaccharide, fructooligosaccharide and maltotetrose, with 3 or 6%(w/w), based on the rice flour. From the Amylograph and blue value data, adding 6% cyclodextrin into the rice flour fastened the gelatinzation process, and delayed the retrogradation in stored BSG at 4$\^{C}$ for up to 3 days, probably due to its cyclic structure. Using rheometer, the hardness of freshly made BSG added with cyclodextrin was significantly lower than that of control BSG, and increased with storage time in all BSGs at refrigerated temperature. When using maltotetrose in rice flour, the hardness of BSG was also significantly low, but slightly higher than that of cyclodextrin. Hunter “L” value in BSG decreased with the addition of oligosaccharides, but the higher the level of oligosaccharide in BSG, the insignificant the Hunter “a”,“b” values of BSG. From the X-ray diffraction studies, the rice flour showed typical A pattern, and the crystallinities of all BSG gave amorphous V type. The highest peaks of X-ray patterns in BSG added with 6% cyclodextrin or maltotetrose were, however, lower than that of the control, meaning the less crystalline, retrograded starch in the former BSGs. Based on sensory evaluation, BSG added with all oligosacchrides were not significantly different in taste, flavor, chewiness, moistness and overall preferences, with slightly darker color with longer storage time, compared to the control BSG.

In this study, extracts from the Green ball apple peel (GBE) and the newly bred green ball apple from Korea showed inhibition effects on photo-aging factor regulation associated with skin aging. To investigate the inhibition effect on photo-aging factor regulation in skin, GBE was treated with UVB to induce photo-aging related factors in CCD986sk fibroblast cells. Photo-aging factor regulation effects showed that GBE inhibited UVB-stimulated matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and MMP-9 protein synthesis in collagen type I alpha 2 chain (COL1A2), MMP-1, MMP-9, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 protein expression. The expression of COL1A2 and TIMP-1 protein was significantly increased. The mRNA expression levels of COL1A2, MMP-1, MMP-9, hyaluronan synthase (HAS)2, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, and TIMP-1 were decreased by GBE. The expression of TIMP-1 and TGF-β, which are regulators involved in matrix metalloproteinase and type I procollagen expression, was found to increase with increasing expression of COL1A2. The expression of HAS2, which is involved in the production of hyaluronic acid, one of the structural proteins constituting the skin, was also confirmed. Therefore, GBE showed excellent efficacy against photo-aging factor regulation and could be used as functional material to prevent and treat skin aging.

This study set its purpose on to specify whether it is possible to use wheat sprout extracts for source of cosmetics, and its biological activity. Cellular experiment was conducted to apprehend toxicity of wheat sprout extracts and through study on the whitening and aging activity of skin cell. As a result, it is appeared that wheat sprout extracts have weak toxicity for HDF, B16F10 cells. Also, it is appeared that wheat sprout extracts have weak deterrent effect on melanin biosynthesis, but since the extracts impede expression of MMP-1, which is induced UV ray, the extracts hold down the aging effect by UV rays. Hence the extracts are effective on preventing wrinkles caused by UV ray and aging. Therefore, this study is expected to be utilized usefully, if the wheat sprout extracts are used as source of functional cosmetics from the perspective of preventing skin-aging in the future.

Intracellular and extracellular oxidative stress initiated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes skin aging, which is characterized by wrinkles and atypical pigmentation. Use of antioxidant is an effective approach to prevent symptoms related to ROS-induced aging of the skin. Therefore, the antioxidant and anti-aging effect of Castanea crenata Siebold & Zucc. extracts (LCE) was investigated in this study. The LCE markedly reduced the hydrogen peroxide-induced cell damage, intracellular ROS, and oxidative stress-induced senescence in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). These results indicate that LCE might have beneficial effects on oxidative stress-induced damage and thus reduce skin aging.

Cnidium japonicum (C. japonicum) is a type of halophyte that inhabits soil of a high salinity, and according to previous studies, it is known to have antitumor effects. However, the skin's protective effect, particularly against UVB irradiation, has not been revealed. In this study, C. japonicum crude extract was studied to determine its effect on damage to human keratinocytes (HaCaT) induced by UVB irradiation, and ROS assays were performed, the results of which showed that C. japonicum crude extract affects UVB-induced photoaging damage in human keratinocytes. To examine inhibitory effects against the expressions of MMPs, RT-PCR and Western blot assay were performed by treating the crude extract at concentrations of 10, 50, and 100 ㎍/ml by irradiating UVB at 15 mJ/cm². As a result, it was confirmed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9 decreased in the group treated with C. japonicum crude extract, which also effectively regulated the antioxidant defense mechanism pathway by activating JNK, ERK, and p38. In conclusion, the current study suggested the possibility that C. japonicum could be used as a raw material for anti-photoaging cosmeceuticals in the future.
