The MeOH extract of the bark of Paeonia moutan showed potent inhibitory effect on the mushroom tyrosinase activity in vitro. The activity-guided fractionation of t he MeOH extract resulted in the isolation of three active compounds. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic evidence as catechin, 1,2,3,6-tetra-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-0-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose, respectively. Among them, the inhibitory activity by 1,2,3,6-tetra-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose on mushroom tyrosinase was more potent $(IC_{50}=3.5\;{\mu}M)$ than that of kojic acid $(IC_{50}=8.7\;{\mu}M)$ ,but catechin enhanced the mushroom tyrosinase activity 50% in the concentration of 34.5M.

Objectives : Draconis Resina (DR), the resin of Daemonorops draco Bl., is used to circulate the blood and to stop bleeding. It also has been used to generate flesh including ulceration. The present study investigated the effects of DR extract on collagen metabolism in human fibroblasts and tyrosinase activity in mushroom tyrosinase.Methods : The effect of DR extract on type I procollagen production (collagen type I synthesis) and collagenase (matrix metalloproteinase-1, henceforth referred as MMP-1) activity in human normal fibroblasts cell line. Hs68 cells after ultraviolet B (UVB, 312 nm) irradiation was measured using the enzyme - linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The tyrosinase activity was also measured to find out the whitening effects in mushroom tyrosinase by ELISA method.Results : There was no cytotoxicity at DR extract at concentrations of 10 μg/ml, 30 μg/ml, and 100 μg/ml. DR extract significantly inhibited the increase of collagenase activity, whereas it did not show on the reduction of type I procollagen in UVB damaged Hs68 cells. DR extract did not reduce the L - DOPA oxidation. However, it significantly reduced the tyrosinase activity by DR extract at concentraions of 0.1 mg/ml, 1 mg/ml and 10 mg/ml.Conclusions : In conclusion, DR showed the anti-wrinkle and whitening effects via the inhibition of collagenase production and the tyrosinase activity. These results suggest that DR may have potential as an anti-aging ingredient in cosmetic herb markets.

본 연구에서는 기능성 식의약품 및 화장품 소재로써 흰색 느티만가닥버섯(Hypsizygus marmoreus)의 이용 가능성을 조사하기 위해서 흰색 느티만가닥버섯 열수 추출물과 메탄올 추출물의 항산화 활성 및 tyrosinase 저해 효과를 비교하였다. 열수 추출물과 메탄올 추출물의 총 폴리페놀 함량은 각각 $8.4{\pm}3.27mg\;GAE/g$과 $7.3{\pm}2.85mg\;GAE/g$이었고 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 $4.8{\pm}3.81ug/mg$과 $2.5{\pm}1.95ug/mg$이었으며 총 폴리페놀과 플라보노이드 함량 모두 메탄올 추출물보다 열수 추출물에서 높게 나타났다. Tyrosinase 저해 활성은 추출물의 농도에 따라 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으나 양성 대조구로 사용한 2% 알부틴(arbutin)비해 40 mg/ml의 높은 농도에서도 열수 추출물은 69.72%, 메탄올 추출물은 52.67%의 낮은 저해 활성을 나타내었다. 항산화 활성은 DPPH에 의한 라디칼소거 활성을 측정하여 확인하였으며 열수 추출물과 메탄올 추출물의 DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 40 mg/ml의 농도에서도 각각 80%와 74%로 낮게 나타났다. 추출물의 세포독성은 WST-1 assay (4-[3-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)-2H-5-tetrazolio]-1,3-benzene disulphonate)를 이용하여 추출물의 처리농도에 따른 B16BL6 melanoma cell의 세포생존율로 확인하였으며 열수 추출물과 메탄올 추출물을 각각 0-40 mg/ml의 농도로 처리하였을 때 B16BL6 melanoma cell은 90% 이상의 생존율을 나타내었으므로 열수 추출물과 메탄올 추출을 모두 B16BL6 melanoma cell에 독성을 나타내지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 Monascus purpureus (Mp), Aspergillus oryzae (Ao), Aspergillus kawachii (Ak) 및 Rhizopus oryzae (Ro) 균주로 Cordycepin-고함유 동충하초(Cordyceps militaris)(CM${\alpha}$)를 발효시켜 수용성 추출물을 얻어 페놀화합물 및 플라보노이드 농도와 항산화 및 티로시나제 저해 활성을 측정한 결과 Ak로 발효시킨 CM${\alpha}$ (AkF-CM${\alpha}$)에서 각각 46 mg/g 및 093 mg/g과 6274% 및 7997%로 가장 우수한 효과를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로부터 AkF-CM${\alpha}$를 선택하여 멜라닌 세포(B16F0 mouse melanoma cell)에서 미백효과를 검토하였다. 양성 대조구 arbutin 처리 B16F10 melanoma 세포는 92% 이상의 세포 생육과 43%의 멜라닌 생성 억제 효능을 보였고, AkF-CM${\alpha}$ 1, 3 및 5 mg/ml 처리 시 멜라닌 생성은 각각 35, 45 및 53% 억제되었다. 또한 AkF-CM${\alpha}$은 멜라닌 세포 내 tyrosinase 활성과 mushroom tyrosinase 활성 모두를 저해시켰고, 멜라닌 생성 관련 tyrosinase 단백질 발현량도 무첨가군에 비해 처리 농도 의존적으로 억제되었다. 이상의 결과에 따라 Aspergillus kawachii 균주로 발효시킨 Cordycepin-고함유 동충하초(Cordyceps militaris)의 수용성 추출물은 미백 화장품 소재로 개발 가능성이 높은 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, we present evidence that cotreatment of aloesin and arbutin inhibits tyrosinase activity in a synergistic manner by acting through a different action mechanism. Aloesin or arbutin similarly inhibited enzyme activity of human- and mushroom-tyrosinases with an IC50 value of 0.1 or 0.04 mM, respectively. Lineweaver-Burk plots of the enzyme kinetics data showed that aloesin inhibited tyrosinase activity noncompetitively with a Ki value of 5.3 mM, whereas arbutin did it competitively (Maeda, 1996). We then examined whether cotreatment of these agents inhibits the tyrosinase activity in a synergistic manner. The results showed that 0.01 mM aloesin in the presence of 0.03 mM arbutin inhibited activity of mushroom by 80% of the control value and the reverse was also true. The inhibitory effects were calculated to be synergistic according to the B rgi method. Taken together, we suggest that aloesin along with arbutin inhibits in synergy melanin production by combined mechanisms of noncompetitive and competitive inhibitions of tyrosinase activity.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate whitening effects and anti-wrinkle effects of a few 80% ethanol extracted herbal medicines. Methods : In the first study, a few 80% ethanol extracted herbal medicines were screened for their inhibitory activities against the tyrosinase. In the second study, a few 80% ethanol extracted herbal medicines were screened for their inhibitory activities against elastase. Results : 1. We showed 28%, 27% and 19% inhibitions of mushroom tyrosinase at 500 $\mu$g/ml concentration of ASR, AIF and ABR extracts and they were showed higher anti-tyrosinase activity than arbutin's. We also could observe that the decreased mushroom tyrosinase activities in RR, CML, LR, AGR and TH extracts. 2. RR, AF and ABR (final concentrstion 1 mg/ml) were appeared 60%, 98%, 83% of inhibitions of elastase activity, and they were showed higher anti-elastase activity than that of ursolic acid. We also could observe that the decreased elastase activities in AIF, AR, LR and CML extracts. Conclusions : These results suggest that ASR, AIF and ABR extracts contribute to the anti-melanin activities and represent potential sources of whitening agent, and RR, AF and ABR extracts contribute to the anti-elastase activities and represent potential sources of anti-wrinkle agent. These results suggest that some herbal medicines could be strong potential sources of inhibition about anti-aging and whitening effects for the skin.

For the purpose of the development of a skin-whitening agent, Sophora flavescens was evaluated for tyrosinase inhibitory activity and its active principles were identified followed activity-guided isolation. The ethanol extract and dichloromethane fraction from S. flavescens showed significant inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase. From the dichloromethane fraction, three known prenylated flavonoids, sophoraflavanone G, kuraridin, and kurarinone, were isolated. Compared with kojic acid ($IC_50$=20.5 $\mu$M), these compounds possessed more potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity. (omitted)
