노화는 크게 내인성 노화와 광노화로 분류된다. 내인성 노화는 시간이 지남에 따라 진행되는 자연적인 노화이며, 광노화는 자외선에 우리 몸이 노출되면서 발생되는 노화 현상으로 주로 피부에서 잘 나타난다. 대표적인 노화 기작으로는 체내 활성 산소의 증가로 인한 생체 구성 성분의 퇴화를 들 수 있다. 따라서, 효과적인 노화 방지를 위해서는 활성 산소를 억제할 수 있는 항산화제를 지속적으로 공급해 주어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 천연 식물 성분인 예덕나무 피 추출물이 노화 방지에 매우 우수한 효과가 있다는 실험 결과들을 보여준다. 먼저, 예덕나무 피 추출물(Mallotus japonicus bark extracts)은 hydroxy radical scavenging activity와 SOD like activity를 가지고 있으며 과산화 수소에 의해 발생하는 피부 손상을 억제하는 효과가 매우 뛰어나다. 또한 광노화 방지 효과도 매우 뛰어나 자외선 조사에 의해 발생할 수 있는 피부 세포 손상을 억제하여 주며 자외선에 의한 유전자 변이도 억제해 주는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 예덕나무 피 추출물은 피부에서 일어날 수 있는 노화 현상을 억제하는데 매우 뛰어난 효과를 가진 물질로서 화장품 원료로서의 이용 가능성이 매우 높다.

Objectives : The present study was designed to investigate effects of mixed extract from korean medicinal herbs (MIX) on oxidation/reduction reaction-related and aging-related enzyme in vitro. Methods : We performed MTT assay, collagenase inhibition assay, elastase inhibition assay, tyrosinase inhibition assay, DPPH free radical scavenging assay, SOD-like activity and xanthine oxidase inhibition assay. Results : Recently, many studies have reported that elastin is also involved in inhibiting or repairing wrinkle formation, although collagen is a major factor in the skin wrinkle formation. The MIX showed 97% inhibition of collagenase activity, and 64% inhibition of elastase activity at 1 mg/ml concentration of MIX, next only to positive control, which indicate good efficacy for anti-wrinkle ingredient. Also it's treatment showed 34% inhibition of tyrosinase activity, to relate whitening effect, at the same dose of MIX. Antioxidant activities were determined by DPPH radical scavenging, xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibiting activity and SOD-like activity. Also these scavenging, XO-inhibiting and SOD-like activities were measured in 91%, 80%, and 63% inhibition, respectively, at a treated dose of 1 mg/ml, compare to control. Conclusions : These results suggest that possibility of mixed korean medicinal herbs as a functional ingredient for anti-wrinkle and whitening, anti-oxidation and anti-aging cosmetic formula.

Quercetin, a plant-derived flavonoid found in fruits, vegetables and tea, has been known to possess bioactive properties such as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer. In this study, anti-cancer effect of quercetin and its underlying mechanisms in triple-negative breast cancer cells was investigated. MTT assay showed that quercetin reduced breast cancer cell viability in a time and dose dependent manner. For this, quercetin not only increased cell apoptosis but also inhibited cell cycle progression. Moreover, quercetin increased FasL mRNA expression and p51, p21 and GADD45 signaling activities. We also observed that quercetin induced protein level, transcriptional activity and nuclear translocation of Foxo3a. Knockdown of Foxo3a caused significant reduction in the effect of quercetin on cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. In addition, treatment of JNK inhibitor (SP 600125) abolished quercetin-stimulated Foxo3a activity, suggesting JNK as a possible upstream signaling in regulation of Foxo3a activity. Knockdown of Foxo3a and inhibition of JNK activity reduced the signaling activities of p53, p21 and GADD45, triggered by quercetin. Taken together, our study suggests that quercetin induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest via modification of Foxo3a signaling in triple-negative breast cancer cells.

본 연구에서는 화장품 신소재 개발을 위하여 맨드라미(Celosia cristata L.) 식물의 에탄올 추출물을 이용하여 생리활성 효과 정도 및 화장품의 응용에 대한 연구를 하였다. 맨드라미는 자생력이 강하고 전국 어디서나 재배가 용이한 장점을 가지고 있으나 세포수준이나 in vivo에서 맨드라미의 항산화 및 항노화 효과에 대한 실험 결과는 보고된 바 없다. 맨드라미 추출물의 피부 자극성을 알아보기 위해 세포 독성을 관찰하였으며 맨드라미 에탄올 추출물 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 89.5%의 비교적 낮은 세포 독성을 나타내어 사람 섬유아세포에서의 세포활성 효과가 우수하였다. DPPH를 이용한 항산화 작용측정에 있어서 맨드라미 에탄올 추출물은 농도 의존적으로 항산화 작용을 나타내었고, $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 25%의 항산화력을 보였으며, silica에 의한 RAW 264.7 세포내 superoxide anion 생성을 최고 농도인 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 49.5%로 억제하여 강한 항산화력을 나타냈으며, DCF-DA를 이용한 세포내 $H_2O_2$ 생성을 측정한 실험에서에서도 맨드라미 에탄올 추출물은 농도 의존적으로 항산화 작용을 나타내어 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 73%로 강력하게 항산화력을 보였다. 또한 hydroxyl radical 생성을 모두 농도 의존적으로 억제하여 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 69.7%의 강력한 억제력을 나타내어 항산화 효능이 매우 우수하다고 보여진다. 항노화 효능에 있어서 hyaluronidase 억제 결과 농도 의존적으로 효과가 우수하여 최고 농도인 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 40%의 높은 억제율을 보였으며, 그 외 elastase에서는 39.7%의 억제율을 나타냈다. 이는 맨드라미가 hyaluronidase나 elastase발현의 전사단계에 관련하거나 혹은 단백질 번역 후 변형 (post-translation modification) 단계에 관여하여 효소를 억제하는 효과를 나타내는 것으로 추정해 볼 수 있다. 결론적으로 자원의 재생산이 용이한 맨드라미의 식용 및 약용 자원으로서의 활용가능성을 시사하며, 맨드라미 추출물을 제조하여 화장품에 응용하면 우수한 보습제 및 항산화제, 노화 방지 화장품을 개발할 수 있다고 판단되어진다.

본 연구에서는 감(Diospyros kaki)의 1,3-butylene glycol 추출물(DBG)과 에탄올 추출물(DET)를 이용하여 항산화, 항노화 및 미백 기능을 규명하였다. 항산화능은 DPPH와 superoxide dismutase (SOD) assay를 통해 규명하였으며, 그 결과 DBG와 DET 모두 현저한 DPPH 소거능 및 SOD-유사능을 보여주었다. 또한 elastase와 hyaluronidase 억제능 그리고 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-1) 발현을 통해 항노화 기능을 규명하였다. DBG와 DET 모두 농도의존적으로 elastase와 hyaluronidase를 억제하였으며, MMP-1 발현 역시 저해하였다. 마지막으로 미백 기능을 규명하기 위하여 tyronisinase 억제 및 melanin 생성 저해능을 알아보았는데, DBG 추출물만이 tyrosinase를 저해할 수 있었다. 요약하면, 감 추출물은 강한 항산화, 항노화, 미백 기능을 갖고 있으며, 추후 화장품 소재로 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Inner nutshell of Castanea mollisima BL (chestnut) has been used as an anti-aging and anti-wrinkle agent from the ancient time in east Asia. In order to develop new anti-aging and anti-wrinkle, ethanolic extract of inner nutshell of Castanea mollisima BL (Cor-285) was prepared and various biological activities were evaluated. Cor-285 showed potent antioxidant activity, Especially, Cor-285 possessed potent free radical scavenging activity in vitro (IC50:7.6 g/ml) compared to gallic acid (IC50:12.5 g/ml), Cor-285 showed the preventive effect against UV-induced cytotoxicity of fibroblast at concentration of 25-250 g/ml. When Cor-285 was evaluated for its anti-allergic activity, it effectively inhibited histamine release from mast cells induced by compound 48/80 (86% inhibition at 10 mg/ml). The inhibitory activity was stronger than that of glycyrrhiznate. Cor-285 also showed in vivo inhibition against delayed hypersensitivity as well as croton-oil induced ear edema in mice when topically applied These results strongly suggest that Cor-285 may reduce immunoregulatory 1 inflammatory skin trouble. From the attempts to isolate the constituents, citropten (simple coumarin) and ellagic acid, a well known radical scavenger, were isolated. In a clinical trial of twenty healthy volunteers with aged skin,6 weeks application of Cor-285 (3% cream) decreased wrinkle about 26% and increased moisturizing 20% on the skin. All of these results indicate that Cor-285 may be an effective anti-aging and anti-wrinkle agent.

Results : The elastase and collagenase inhibitory activity of JMB ethanol extract increased dose dependently. Also, The MTT assay showed that JMB, up to 400 ㎍/㎖ concentration, exhibited no toxic effect to the B16F10 cell. And following the JMB ethanol extract treat, cellular melanin contents and tyrosinase activity were dose-dependently decreased compared to those of control. Conclusion : These results suggest that JMB ethanol extract has effects to inhibitory activity on dermal wrinkle enzyme and melanogenesis. Therefore, JMB has applicable benefits for development of materials or products to have whitening and anti-aging functions on skin.

Bioactive peptides (BAP) showed excellent cosmetic activity than bio-materials such as caffeic acid (CA), gallic acid (GA), and nicotinic acid (NA). Caffeoyl tripeptide-1 (CT-1) is a BAP that is stabilized with Gly-His-Lys (GHK) tripeptide and CA by using Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis. Digalloyl tetrapeptide-19 (DT-19) is stabilized by combining Lys-Glu-Cys-Gly with GA and nicotinoyl tripeptide-1 (NT-1) is synthesized by GHK and NA. According to experiments, CT-1 has an excellent anti-oxidant function even with a very small amount of 10 ppm CT-1. DT-19's tyrosinase inhibition activity has the better effect of about 28.57% in 0.01% and 33.33% in 0.005% of concentration and about 7.89% in 0.001% concentration than vitamin-C. In addition, NT-1 is safer than the NA. Almost BAPs like pal-KTTKS, acetyl hexapeptide, and copper tripeptide-1 have the anti-wrinkle effect while DT-19 and NT-1 are applicable for potential BAPs focused on the whitening effect. The three kinds of BAPs like CT-1, DT-19, and NT-1 consisting of amino acids are safe to the skin, and have more excellent stability than bio-materials which are found to be unstable and cause skin irritation. Due to the high biological activity of BAP in the field of skin care, its utilization will increase constantly.
