Retinoids have many beneficial effects on dermatological applications. But, retinoids cause skin irritation. In this study, the safety of retinoids was clarified via both primary skin irritation test in rabbits and sensitization study using an integrated model for the differentiation of chemical-induced allergic and irritant skin reaction (IMDS), an alternative method to sensitization test. The effects of retinoids on the change of ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) in human skin fibroblasts and the modulation of type-1 pN collagen synthesis in hairless mice were examined to clarify the anti-wrinkle effects. Alltrans retinol (t-ROL) and its derivative, all-trans retinoic acid (t-RA), showed mild skin irritation but did not induce the sensitization. t-ROL and t-RA exerted anti-wrinkle effects by inhibiting the UVA-induced MMP-1 in human skin fibroblasts and increasing the type-1 pN collagen synthesis in hairless mice. These findings suggest that retinoids do not induce the allergy, and show anti-wrinkle effects by decreasing MMP-1 activation and increasing collagen synthesis.

We had prepared MLV liposome with Hibiscus Esculentus Ext.(HEE) which have fluorescent light in order to evaluate its percutaneous absorption about hairless rat skin. Then we investigated particle size of MLV using confocal laser scanning microscope(CLSM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM), respectively. Stability of MLV liposome and penetration of MLV liposome to hairless rat skin was measured by CLSM. As a result of experiments, MLV was globular shape and the rage of particle size was 0.3-0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ mostly. Cream-type MLV had high stability comparatively. When we treated with MLV to rat skin, skin penetration was enhanced, especially, the optimum concentration of MLV on penetration to rat skin was 10%. Optimum penetration time was 6hr-12hr. And MLV-type HEE was more effective on percutaneous absorption than HEE-cream or liposome-type HEE.

The water content of skin was determined using a FT near infrared (NIR) spectrometer. NIR diffuse reflectance spectra were collected from hairless mouse, in vitro, and from human inner arm, in vivo. It was found that the variation of NIR absorbance band 1450 nm from OH vibration of water and 1940 nm from the combination involving OH stretching and OH deformation, depending on the absolute water content of separated hairless mouse skin, in vitro, using the FT NIR spectrometer. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was applied to develop a calibration model. The PLS model showed good correlation. For practical use of the evaluation of human skin moisture, the PLS model for human skin moisture was developed in vivo on the basis of the relative water content of stratum corneum from the conventional capacitance method. The PLS model predicted human skin moisture with a standard errors of prediction (SEP) of 3.98 at 1130-1830 nm range. These studies showed the possibility of a rapid and nondestructive skin moisture measurement using FT NIR spectrometer.

There are a wide variety of semi-solid ointments used for healing the skin diseases, whose therapeutic and skin penetration abililties may greatly differ from one another depending on the compositions of ointment vehicles. A computer optimization technique was applied to obtain the optimum formula of o/w type ointment giving the in vitro maximum absorption rate through hairless rat skin membrane. Some of the formulations were selected to find out a relationship between skin penetration of ointment and its Theological characteristics. The experimental value of absorption rate obtained from the ointment by optimum formula agreed well with the theoretical value obtained from a polynomial regression analysis, Three kinds of ointments selected among 15 formulations were obtained with a concentric cylinder type rheometer (Model; Rheolab SM-HM Physica, Germany) at 20, 30, 40 and $50^{\circ}C$ for rheograms of rhelolgical properties of o/w type ointments. As the temperature was raised, all products showed a decrease in both shear stress and yield values. The higher skin penetration, the lower shear stress showed.

새로운 노화방지 물질로 개발한 3-APPA가 노화에 의해 야기되는 여러 변화들, 특히 세포 증식, 유전자 수준 및 단백질 수준에서의 collagen의 생합성 변화, 면역조직화학염색을 이용한 collagen 생합성의 변화등을 세포배양 및 동물실험을 통하여 측정하였다. MTT assay를 이용한 인체 피부 섬유아세포의 증식 실험에서 3-APPA는 무처치군에 비교해서 최고 2배의 섬유아세포 증식 효능을 나타내었으며, $^3$[H]-proline incorporation 방법을 이용한 단층세포 배양 및 3차원 dermal equivalent 섬유아세포 배양에서 무처치군 및 vitamin C 처리군에 비해 최고 1.5배의 collagen 생합성 증가를 나타내었다. 그러나 type I alpha-procollagen mRNA expression에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. H&E 염색을 이용한 hairless mice의 피부에 대한 형태학적 변화 및 type I pM procollagen antibody를 이용한 면역조직화학염색에서, 3-APPA는 collagen 생합성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 3-APPA는 섬유아세포 배양 및 hairless mouse를 이용한 실험에서 피부 섬유아세포 증식을 촉진시키며 collagen 생합성을 증가시켜 피부노화를 억제 할 수 있는 물질임을 밝혔다.

Collagen tripeptide (CTP) is a functional food material with several biological effects such as improving dry skin and wound and bone fracture healing. This study focused on the anti-photoaging effects of CTP on a hairless mouse model. To evaluate the effects of CTP on UVB-induced skin wrinkle formation in vivo, the hairless mice were exposed to UVB radiation with oral administration of CTP for 14 weeks. Compared with the untreated UVB control group, mice treated with CTP showed significantly reduced wrinkle formation, skin thickening, and transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Skin hydration and hydroxyproline were increased in the CTP-treated group. Moreover, oral administration of CTP prevented UVB-induced MMP-3 and -13 activities as well as MMP-2 and -9 expressions. Oral administration of CTP increased skin elasticity and decreased abnormal elastic fiber formation. Erythema was also decreased in the CTP-treated group. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that CTP has potential as an anti-photoaging agent.

털없는 쥐표피를 적출하여 ultraviolet B로서 조사한 후 녹차의 열수 추출물이 표피의 효소의 활성에 대한 항산화 효과를 조사하였다. 녹차의 열수추출물을 5, 25, 50 및 $100\;{\mu}g$으로 쥐표피에 첨가한 후 ultraviolet B을 $1.0\;joule/cm^{2}$로 조사한 후 효소활성을 조사한 결과 catalase와 glutathione reductase는 녹차의 열수 추출물의 첨가용량이 증가할수록 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나 glutathione peroxidase와 superoxide dismutase는 영향을 받지 않았다. 한편 lipoxygenase의 활성을 알아보기 위하여 arachidonic acid에 $50\;{\mu}g$ 녹차의 열수 추출물을 첨가하여 대사를 검토한 결과 대사산물 12 또는 15-hydroxyeicosa- tetraenoic acid보다 5-HETE 및 8-HETE가 억제되었다. 녹차의 열수 추출물을 5, 25, 50 및 $100\;{\mu}g$ 첨가하였을 때 5-HETE는 각각 32, 52, 62 및 80% 억 제되었고 8-HETE는 각각 36, 47, 70 및 84%로 억제됨을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 가시오가피 추출물의 UVB 조사에 따른 광노화에서의 피부 주름 형성 억제에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 진행하였다. 그 결과 가시오가피 추출물은 항산화 활성 및 콜라게네이즈 효소 억제에서 ascorbic acid보다 우수한 효능을 가지며, CCD-986SK 사람섬유아세포에서 콜라겐 생성을 유의적으로 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 가시오가피 추출물의 실제적인 주름 형성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 UVB가 조사된 무모 생쥐에서 경구투여를 실시한 결과, 피부조직에서 주름의 형성 및 자외선에 의한 콜라겐 조직의 파괴 반응을 억제하고 콜라겐 생성을 촉진시켜 자외선에 의한 피부주름을 예방하거나 완화할 수 있는 효과가 있음을 증명하였다.
