Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a composition for antioxidant or whitening comprising a complex extract of phalaenopsis sp. ussuriense, Juglans mandshurica, Rodgersia podophylla and Chaenomeles sinensis with antioxidant activity or whitening}

The present invention relates to the use of V eratrum There is nigrum . ussuriense ), spruce ( Juglans mandshurica , Rodgersia podophylla , and Chaenomeles Sinensis ) or fractions thereof as an active ingredient, to a cosmetic composition for antioxidant or whitening, a food composition, a quasi-drug composition, a composition for external application for skin, and a pharmaceutical composition.

All organisms, including humans, experience life and aging, two biological changes throughout their lives. Growth refers to an increase in the size or function of an individual, while aging refers to a phenomenon in which the size or function of an individual decreases or declines, and growth and aging can occur at the same time. However, aging phenomenon becomes more prominent with increasing time and age, and cell division ability and metabolic activity gradually decrease, so that the organism can not become ill or perform physical and functional smooth activities. The mechanism of senescence is divided into genetic program theory, somatic mutation theory, error fracture theory, free radical theory, endocrine theory by specific hormone action, immune disruption due to impaired immune surveillance, stress theory, lipofuscin and lipid peroxidation There are various aging related theories such as accumulation of wastes based on the accumulation of collagen, and crosslinking (binding) following the progress of crosslinking of tissue collagen fibers, but there is no clear explanation yet.

Among the various aging phenomena such as decline of hearing, smell, taste, reduction of lung capacity, weight loss of organs, aging phenomenon, which is generally felt and felt most directly by people, is the skin aging phenomenon. The most supported theory about the aging phenomenon occurring in the skin tissue is the free radical theory. According to the theory, free radicals are generated in the living body by metabolic reaction, ultraviolet ray, soot and environmental hormone, and this free radical As the barrier is destroyed, lipids, proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids, which are the main constituents of skin, are oxidized and consequently promote the aging process of skin cells and tissues. In other words, skin is oxidatively stressed by radicals such as superoxide radicals (O ^2- ) and hydroxyl radicals (OH) and non-radicals such as hydrogen peroxide (H ₂ O ₂ ) . In particular, when proteins are oxidized, collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin, proteoglycan, fibronectin, etc., which are the connective tissues of the skin, are severed, resulting in severe hyperinflammation reaction and decreased skin elasticity If this becomes worse, DNA mutation leads to mutation, cancer induction, and immune function deterioration. Therefore, in order to prevent skin aging, it is necessary to prevent skin damage by eliminating free radicals caused by various causes, and already damaged cells need to be regenerated and reproduced by active metabolism.

On the other hand, human skin color largely depends on the amount of melanin pigment contained in skin cells. People with a lot of melanin pigments have brown or black skin, while those with very low melanin pigment cause vitiligo. Melanin pigment is produced from tyrosine by tyrosinase in pigmented cell called melanocyte which exists in basal membrane of skin. Melanin pigment protects skin from excessive ultraviolet rays, so it plays an important role in suppressing skin damage and skin cancer caused by ducts. However, when melanin is excessively produced by daylight, hormone changes, inflammation, medicines, etc., the pigment of the skin is deposited, which causes cosmetic problems. For example, skin pigmentation of the skin is caused by an increase in the amount of melanin pigment, which means that the production of melanin pigment is promoted or the number of melanocytes is increased.

Accordingly, in recent years, various whitening cosmetics and medicines for preventing and improving such problems have been developed and marketed. Currently, in the development of a whitening agent for skin cosmetics, a method of decolorizing the resulting melanin pigment and a method of inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme that forms a melanin pigment, are known. However, it is known that the whitening agent using tocopherol or the like, which is used for reducing the melanin pigment, has little discoloration effect on the melanin pigment. Accordingly, inhibitors that inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and inhibit the production of melanin pigment have been attracting attention.

Tyrosinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of monophenols and is contained in the melanocytes of higher animals. Tyrosine is oxidized by this enzyme and melanin pigment is produced through a series of chemical reactions and oxidation. This melanin pigment is brown or black, which absorbs excess light in vivo, which adversely affects skin beauty. In view of the fact that the activity of tyrosinase is inhibited, the production of melanin pigment can be inhibited. Thus, in the field of the conventional cosmetics, natural plant extracts and the like are used as inhibitors of tyrosinase activity as natural whitening extracts.

Under these circumstances, the inventors of the present invention have made efforts to develop a plant extract that has superior radical scavenging ability and can effectively inhibit tyrosinase activity, as compared with the conventional plant extract. As a result of intensive efforts, the inventors of the present invention have found that a combination of spruce, It was confirmed that the extract had an excellent radical scavenging ability and could effectively inhibit tyrosinase activity, thus completing the present invention.

Tyrosinase, an enzyme purified from potato or mushroom, was obtained from Sigma extracted from mushrooms. First, tyrosine, a substrate, was dissolved in a sodium phosphate buffer solution (0.1 M, pH 6.8) to prepare a solution having a concentration of 0.3 mg / ml. Then, 334 μl of the solution was taken into a test tube and then sodium phosphate buffer solution 0.1M, pH 6.8). The dried extracts of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and Example 2 were dissolved in methanol to a concentration of 100 mg / ml, diluted with DMSO, and used as an experimental group. Each 2 μl of the diluted extract samples was added to the solution in the test tube and reacted in a 37 ° C thermostat for 10 minutes.

Tyrosinase was also dissolved in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8), and the concentration was adjusted to 46 units / ml.

In order to evaluate the tyrosinase activity, the sample compositions of the blank used in the experiment, the control, the single extract of Comparative Example 1, the combined extract of Comparative Examples 2 and 3, and the combined extract of Example 2 were as follows.

Blank (2 wells): 100 μl DMSO 2 μl, PB 160 μl, not treated

Control (2 wells): 2 μl of 100% DMSO, 120 μl of PB, 40 μl of Tyrosinase

Extract Sample: 2 ㎕ of sample, 120 ㎕ of PB, 40 ㎕ of tyrosinase

2 ㎕ of DMSO, 120 ㎕ of PB and 40 ㎕ of Tyrosinase were treated with 2 ㎕ of DMSO, 2 ㎕ of DMSO, 120 ㎕ of PB, and 120 ㎕ of PB, Tyrosinase And 40 μl of L-DOPA solution (2 mM) were added to each well. After incubation at 37 ° C for 10 min, OD (absorbance) was measured at 475 nm using a microplate counter. For arbutin used as a positive control, arbutin was dissolved in DMSO to a concentration of 100 mg / ml, and then diluted with DMSO to 100 μg / ml.

As shown in the above Table 2, compared with the single extract of Comparative Example 1, the compound extract of Comparative Example 2, and the compound extract of Comparative Example 3, the combined extract of Example 2, sprout, The IC ₅₀ The amount of tyrosinase was significantly lower than that of arbutin, and the ability to inhibit the activity of tyrosinase was 5 times higher than that of arbutin.

Fig. 2 is a graph showing the tyrosinase activity (%) of the complex extract of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, tyrosinase activity was significantly lower in the positive control group than in the arbutin at the concentrations of 100 μg / ml and 20 μg / ml in the extracts of P. japonica, P. sp. In particular, at a concentration of 20 μg / ml of the complex extract, tyrosinase activity was markedly lower than 100 μg / ml of arbutin, indicating that the efficiency of inhibiting tyrosinase activity was remarkably high.

On the other hand, in the case of the extract alone, the concentration of the sample inhibiting 50% inhibition of tyrosinase activity was 12.25 / / ml, unlike the extracts of spruce, 2 complex extracts. However, in the case of the extract alone, the DPPH radical scavenging ability was low as shown in Experimental Example 1, and thus it was impossible to apply the extract to antioxidant use. On the contrary, with the participation of the present invention, the combined extracts of spruce, decanter, and quercetin have not only antioxidative activity but also excellent whitening activity, so that they can be applied simultaneously for antioxidative and whitening purposes.

As a result of the present invention, the combined extracts of the spruce tree, the spruce tree, and the spruce tree were found to be the extracts of the spruce tree, the spruce tree, the extract of the spruce tree, the combined extract of the spruce tree and the spruce tree, Compared with the complex extract, the tyrosinase activity, which plays a key role in the melanin biosynthesis process, is suppressed to a remarkably high level, and the production of melanin pigment is effectively inhibited, thereby preventing skin aging and whitening effect. In addition, as described above, it has an excellent antioxidative effect.
