To investigate the relationship between structure and biological activity of phenylpropanoids, we measured effects of phenylpropanoids on anti-oxidant and whitening activity, In DPPH radical scavenging activity, caffeic acid analogues showed the significant anti-oxidant activity. Although phenylpropanoids did not inhibit purified-tyrosinase activity, they significantly inhibited tyrosinase activity and melanin production in MSH-stimulated B16 melanoma cells. However, phenylpropanoids did not affect tyrosinase expression in MSH-stimulated B16 melanoma cells, which suggest that inhibition of MSH-induced melanin production was due to tyrosinase inhibition mediated via other signal pathways but not expression of tyrosinase. Phenylpropanoids also significantly inhibited both hyaluronidase and elastase activity, suggesting that phenylpropanoids may be used as whitening, hydration and anti-wrinkling agents. Hydroxyl residue of aromatic ring in phenylpropanoids plays an important role in anti-oxidant and whitening activity.

This study was carried out to investigate the anti-oxidant effect of Wasabia japonica(WJ). The anti-oxidant activities of various extracts from WJ were investigated. The water and ethanol extracts of WJ leaf were found to cause significant free radical scavenging effects on DPPH and nitric oxide(NO). Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly assigned to one normal diet and three high cholesterol diet groups which contained 1%(w/w) cholesterol. After 4weeks cholesterol diet, the groups of high cholesterol diet were classified to control(normal diet only), WJR5(normal diet and 5% WJ root) and WJL5(normal diet and 5% WJ leaf). Liver xanthine oxidase(XO) activity in the rats of high cholesterol diet was decreased up to the levels of normal diet group according to WJ diet. The results indicated that WJ possesses antioxidant effects through free radical scavenging effects on DPPH, NO and the decreasing of XO activity. In view of these results, WJ is expected to be an effective material for the anti-oxidant.

Oxidative rancidity in foods causes undesirable changes in nutritive value, aroma, flavor, and color. Salix Koreensis Andersson in DC. (SK) has anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects and is traditionally used to treat neuralgia, edema, pain, and inflammatory diseases. However, the regulatory effects of SK on oxidative and inflammatory reactions have not been elucidated. In this context, we scientifically validated the anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of SK leaf (SKL). The methanol extract of SKL was evaluated for in vitro anti-oxidative activities. SKL showed increased superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity and 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity. The in vitro anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of SKL were also investigated in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. LPS resulted in decreased SOD activities compared with the unstimulated cells, but SKL significantly increased SOD activities reduced by LPS. In addition, LPS-induced nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$, and interleukin-6 productions were significantly and dose-dependently reduced by SKL in RAW264.7 macrophages without inducing cytotoxicity. In conclusion, these results indicate that SKL will be able to be effectively used as a food additive with anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects.

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.
