본 연구는 갈근 추출물의 항산화 활성 및 멜라닌세포 효과를 평가하기 위하여 총 폴리페놀 함량, 총 플라보노이드 함량, DPPH radical 소거 활성을 통하여 항산화 활성을 살펴보고, B16F10 melanoma 세포에 대한 세포 독성 및 멜라닌 생합성 억제능 효과를 측정하였다. 연구 결과 B16F10 melanoma 세포에 대해 독성을 나타내지 않았으며, B16F10 melanoma 세포에 ${\alpha}$-MSH로 멜라닌 생성을 유도한 후 멜라닌 생합성 억제능을 측정한 결과 멜라닌의 생성 증가가 농도 의존적으로 억제되는 것을 확인하였다. 항산화 활성에 대한 결과로는, 갈근 추출물은 폴리페놀과 플라보노이드의 함량이 높아 추출물의 농도가 증가함에 따라 DPPH radical 소거 활성이 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 결과를 통하여 갈근 추출물이 항산화 활성과 멜라닌세포 대한 멜라닌생성억제 효과가 뛰어나고 피부 세포에 대한 독성이 낮으며, 피부의 멜라닌 세포에 대한 안전성이 확인됨에 따라 화장품 소재로서의 가능성을 확인하였다.

피부미백 소재를 개발하기 위해 멜라닌 함량, 세포내 tyrosinase 활성의 측정 및 Western blotting 실험이 수행되었다. 백합(Lilium Oriental Hybrid 'Siberia') 뿌리의 80% 에탄올 추출물로부터 얻은 에틸아세테이트 분획물(R-EA)은 ${\alpha}$-melanocyte stimulating hormone(${\alpha}$-MSH)에 의해 멜라닌 생성이 유도된 B16/F10 흑색종 세포에서 농도 의존적으로 멜라닌 생성을 저해하였다. 정확하게 세포내 tyrosinase 활성과 멜라닌 함량은 에틸아세데이트 분획물 $100{\mu}g/mL$ 처리 시 ${\alpha}$-MSH 단독 처리군에 비해 각각 45%와 74%의 저해율을 보였다. ${\alpha}$-MSH에 의해 멜라닌 생성이 유도된 B16/F10 흑색종 세포에서 단백질 발현양상을 살펴본 결과 TRP-1이 가장 많이 억제된 양상을 확인할 수 있었고 이 결과는 세포내 tyrosinase 활성저해보다 멜라닌 생성저해가 더 많이 일어난 것과 일맥상통하는 것이다. 이를 종합해 볼 때 p-coumaric acid와 resveratrol 함량이 백합뿌리의 에탄올 추출물에 비해 많이 함유된 에틸아세테이트 분획물은 멜라닌 생성 유도물질에 의해 촉진된 ERK의 활성화를 억제하는 피부미백 소재로서 그 가치가 입증된다고 사료된다.

Quercetin is one of the bioflavonoid compounds and has multiple biological effects such as antioxidant and effective anti-inflammatory agent. Melanin has an important role in protecting human skin from the damaging effects of ultra-violet W) radiation. We studied the effect of quercetin on proliferation of B16/F10 melanoma cells. After 48h treatment of cells with quercetin, the cells exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition in their proliferation without apoptosis. Therefore, the decrease in cell numbers may be due to cell growth arrest, not due to cell death by cytotoxicity. We also investigated the effect of quercetin on melanogenesis of this cells. B16/F10 melanoma cells were grown for 48h in the presence of 0.01~50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml quercetin and the total melanin contents were measured. Quercetin stimulated melanization of the cells in low concentrations (0.01~20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml), whereas it inhibited melanization in high concentrations (30~50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). It was observed that quercetin differently regulates melanogenesis of B16/F10 melanoma cells dependent on its concentrations.

In this study, we have investigated the hypo-pigmentary mechanism of methanol extract of Forsythiae Fructus in human melanocyte cell line, HM3KO. Treatment of HM3KO cells with Forsythiae Fructus extract markedly inhibited melanin biosynthesis in a dose-dependent manner. Decreased melanin contents occurred through the decrease of tyrosinase protein and activity. The mRNA levels of tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TRP-1) were also reduced by Forsythiae Fructus extract. Moreover, the level of intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) was significantly decreased by treatment of Forsythiae Fructus extract. These results suggest that Forsythiae Fructus reduces melanin synthesis by down regulation of tyrosinase mRNA transcription, and this is closely related to the cAMP-dependent pathway.

This study was expand the use of Citrus madurensis (Citrofortunella microcarpa), which is a good source of skin whitening and antioxidants activation cosmetics. The goal was to provide cosmeceutical activity data about the extraction yield and total phenol of this calamondin orange by optimizing the focused high ultrasound(INEFU) and ultrasound extraction(UE) conditions. Under optimal extraction conditions, which consisted of 1800W for 45min and 500W for 45 min, 21.55 and 13.27 % (w/w) of the highest extractions yield and polyphenol contents were obtained. For the skin whitening activity, tyrosinase inhibitory activity was observed at 69.24 % in the INEFU extracts, which was ca. 18 % higher than that of the UE extracts (58.82 %). To reduce melanin production in Clone M-3 cells, 86.9 % melanin production was observed following the addition of control, WE(water extraction) relative to the control without a sample, and 81.2 and 78.9 % were found in the UE and INEFU conditions. The highest total phenol secretion was conclusively obtained under the optimal conditions and resulted in a significant improvement of the cosmetic activities of Citrus madurensis(Citrofortunella microcarpa) extracts.

Objectives : Yam bean (Pachyrhizus erosus) possess various nutrients, it has been widely used as traditional cosmetic material in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-oxidant activity and the anti-melanogenic effect of Yambean (Pachyrhizus erosus) extract and its fractions. Methods : The anti-oxidant activity of yam bean extract assessed based on total polyphenol, flavonoid contents, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assay. To evaluate anti-melanogenic effects and cytotoxicity of Yambean extract and its fractions, B16F10 melanoma cell was used. Results : In results, total polyphenol content of yam bean water extract (YW) and Yambean 70% ethanol extract (YE) were $1.18{\pm}0.03mg/g$ (mg of gallic acid/g of sample), $1.16{\pm}0.01mg/g$. Total flavonoid contents of YW, YE were $3.55{\pm}0.06mg/g$ (mg of naringin/g of sample), $1.78{\pm}0.03mg/g$. Moreover, YE scavenged DPPH and ABTS effectively in $4mg/m{\ell}$ compared to YW. Cytotoxicity of YE and its fractions in B16F10 melanoma cell was measured using MTT assays. It had no cytotoxicity up to $500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. Melanin accumulation in B16F10 melanoma cell was induced using alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (${\alpha}-MSH$) and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). B16F10 melanoma cell treated with $10-500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ YE and hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, $H_2O$ fractions for 24h. Non treated B16F10 melanoma cell (Control) markedly increased melanin contents. In contrast, YE ethylacetate fraction effectively suppressed melanin accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion : In conclusion, these results suggest that Yambean extract has the potential as a cosmetic material which possess anti-oxidant and anti-melanogenic activities.

To examine the potential of Terminalia chebula as a whitening agent, we measured antioxidant activity using DPPH$\cdot$, ABTS${\cdot}^+$ assays and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays, and depigmenting activity using B16F10 melanoma cells. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was monitored by $H_2DCFDA$ fluorescence labeling, and melanin contents in B16F10 melanoma cells by 960 $J/m^2$ dose of UVA-induced oxidative stress. The radical-scavenging activities of T. chebula extract (TCE) were measured in terms of $EC_{50}$ values using DPPH$\cdot$, ABTS${\cdot}^+$ assays and FRAP value were 280.0 ${\mu}g/mL$, 42.2 ${\mu}g/mL$ and 113.1 ${\mu}mol$ $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O/g$, respectively. We found that ROS and melanin concentrations were reduced by TCE treatments of 25 ${\mu}g/mL$ under UVA-induced oxidative stress. Tyrosinase activity and melanin contents in $\alpha$-melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH)-induced melanoma cells both decreased dose-dependently in the treatment groups. TCE similarly reduced melanogenesis in B16F10 melanoma cells stimulated by $\alpha$-MSH as compared to arbutin as a positive control. T. chebula may prove to be a useful therapeutic agent for hyperpigmentation and an effective component in skin whitening and.or lightening cosmetics.

Objective : Herbal medicinal mixture (JMB) are consisted of Caryophylli Flos, Aucklandiae Radix, and Angelicae Dahuricae Radix. Each of these herbal medicines has studied on anti-aging effect in vitro. So this study was conducted to investigate efficacy and potency of JMB extract on dermal anti-aging and whitening. Methods : The JMB was extracted at room temperature by 80% ethanol. Collagenase and elastase inhibition activity in JMB ethanol extract were determined at 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000 mg/ml concentrations by colorimetric method. The toxic range of JMB ethanol extract was evaluated using MTT assay. Also, The inhibitory effect of JMB ethanol extract on tyrosinase activity and melanin contents in mouse melanoma cell line (B16F10 cell) was identified at 50, 100, 200 ㎍/㎖ levels by spectrometric assay. In each analysis, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) and Kojic acid were used as positive controls, respectively. 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.
