To investigate the possibility of development as a whitening agent using bamboo extracts (Phyllostachys nigra var. henonis), we measured DPPH assay, NBT/XO assay, intracellular ROS scavenging assay, tyrosinase assay and MSH-induced melanin production in B-16 cells. Bamboo extracts had dose-dependently anti-oxidant activity in DPPH, NBT/XO and intracellular ROS assay. Bamboo extracts appear to inhibit xanthine oxidase directly. Bamboo extracts inhibited not only purified tyrosinase activity but also inhibited tyrosinase activity and melanin production in B16 melanoma cells stimulated by $1{\mu}M\;{\alpha}$-MSH. Anti-oxidant activity and cytotoxicity of ethyl acetate fraction was more potent than those of water fraction, whereas whitening effect of water fraction was stronger than ethyl acetate fraction. Therefore, these results suggest that water fraction of bamboo extracts may be useful for the development as whitening agents reducing cytotoxicity.

조류 소재에 관한 연구는 꾸준히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 미역, 다시마, 불등가사리 등 해조류를 혼합한 발효추출물의 항산화, 미백, 보습의 활성 실험을 진행하였다. 또한 유산균으로는 김치유산균 Lactobacillus sakei균주를 이용하였다. 복합해조류 발효추출물의 생리활성 실험을 진행하였으며, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) 라디칼 소거능에서는 양성대조군 보다 높은 저해효능을 보였다. 미백효능 실험에서는 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (L-DOPA), mushroom tyrosinase 실험을 수행하였으며, 발효 전보다 발효 후의 미백활성이 높게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 한편, 해조류 소재의 유효성분인 fucose에 대한 HPLC분석을 수행하였으며, 용매조건에 대한 표준화 방법을 새로이 정립하였다. 이 연구는 복합해조류 추출물이 항산화, 미백 등 화장품 소재로서 가능성을 제안할 수 있다.

본 연구는 피부 관리에 사용되는 천연화장품 원료로서 동과자 추출물의 활용 가능성을 조사하기 위해 항산화, 항염 그리고 미백 효능을 평가하였다. DPPH 자유라디컬 소거 활성은 농도 의존적으로 감소하였으며, 총폴리페놀 함량은 메탄올추출물(22.42±0.002 mgGAE/g)이 열수추출물(9.77±0.002 mgGAE/g)보다 더 높게 나타났다. MTT assay 결과 동과자 추출물에 의한 RAW264.7 세포와 B16F10 세포에서의 세포독성은 없었다. 또한 LPS 처리에 의해 활성화된 RAW264.7 세포에서 NO 생성과 TNF-α 분비 억제능을 확인하였다. B16F10 melanoma 세포에서 동과자 추출물은 α-MSH에 의한 멜라닌 합성을 유의하게 저해하는 것으로 나타났다. 게다가, westernblot 분석결과 동과자 메탄올추출물은 MITF, TRP-1 및 TRP-2 단백질의 발현 수준을 현저하게 감소시켰다. 이상의 결과로 동과자 추출물은 항산화, 항염 그리고 미백 효능을 가진 기능성 화장품 소재로써의 가치가 높을 것으로 사료된다.

Background: We investigated the antioxidant, anti-wrinkles, whitening, and moisturizing properties and amounts of phenolic compounds of ethanol extracts from flowers of 10 resource plants from Namwon and Mt. Jiri., Korea. Methods and Results: We measured antioxidant efficacy based on the total polyphenol, and total flavonoid content, and the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. We evaluated the inhibitory effect on melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity for the whitening effect. Furthermore, we analyzed the elastase and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) inhibition activity for anti-wrinkle capacity. To evaluate the moisturizing effect, we examined hyaluronan synthase (HAS) mRNA expression. In addition, the 19 phenolic compounds were detected using high performace liquid chromatography (HPLC). Among the 10 flowers, the antioxidant effect was high in the order of Rosa multiflora, Nelumbo nucifera, and Elsholtzia splendens. Whitening effect was high in the order of N. nucifera, R. multiflora, and Dendranthema zawadskii. As for the anti-wrinkle property, N. nucifera was the most effective followed by R. multiflora. Taraxacum coreanum was the best for moisturizing effect, followed by D. zawadskii, and E. splendens. Seven phenolic compounds were detected in the extracts of the 10 flowers. Conclusions: Overall, the extracts of five flowers extracts showed strong potential as antioxidant, whitening, anti-wrinkle, and moisturizing functional cosmetic agents.

Objective : This study was performed to assess the effects of Aloe and Violae herba extracts on skin disease and skin beauty. Methods : Anti-oxidant effects were measured by the scavenging for DPPH radical, xanthine oxidase activity. Anti-inflammatory effects were examined by relations in NO synthesis, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, TNF-$\alpha$, NF-kB, COX-2, MAP kinase. The skin wrinkle formation effects were measured by collagenase and elastase activities. The whitening effects were examined by tyrosinase activities, melanin synthesis in MNT-1 cell. Results : 1. In an anti-oxidant test, Aloe and Violae herba extracts showed high radical scavenging activity. 2. In an anti-inflammatory test, Aloe and Violae herba extracts strongly inhibited the lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced nitric oxide(NO) release from the RAW 246.7 macrophage cells. Aloe and Violae herba extracts also inhibited the LPS-induced IL-$1{\beta}$ and COX-2 expressions. The inhibitory effects of Aloe and Violae herba extracts on macrophage activation were via the inhibition of NF-kB, evidenced by transient transfection assay. Furthermore, Aloe and Violae herba extracts weakly inhibited the activation of Jun-N-terminal kinase(JNK) but they did not have any effects on p38 MAP kinase in RAW 264.7 cells. 3. In the skin wrinkle formation assay, Aloe extract strongly inhibited collagenase and elastase, whose activity are tightly related with the wrinkle formation. 4. In the skin whitening assay, Aloe and Viloae herba extracts weakly inhibited tyrosinase activity, however, it was not statistically significant. Besides they did not have any effects on melanin synthesis, indicating that they could not be applicable for skin whitening. Conclusion : This study show that Aloe and Violae herba extracts may play a significant role in skin disease and skin beauty.
