Description

Cosmetic composition containing Dogo hot spring water {COSMETIC COMPOSITION COMPRISING DOGO HOT SPRING WATER}

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition containing Dogo hot spring water, and more specifically, to a cosmetic composition containing Dogo hot spring water and fermented herbal medicine.

The skin is the largest organ in the body and is always in direct contact with the external environment, acting as a protective layer that protects the living body from various stimuli or dry environments. Compared to other organs, the creation and extinction of new cells occurs more actively. In addition, it protects the body from physical abrasions, prevents moisture loss inside the body, protects from ultraviolet rays generated by the sun, and plays a very important role in regulating body temperature.

Problems such as skin contamination, dryness, skin troubles, and skin immune system abnormalities occur due to various physical factors, external environmental factors, infections, etc. In particular, with modern rapid industrial development, pollution problems such as air pollution and water pollution have become more serious, and the strong heating and cooling of living spaces due to the improvement of residential environments has caused skin to be exposed to external environmental factors such as skin roughness, dryness, and aging. is greatly influenced by Human skin gradually becomes thinner, wrinkles increase, elasticity decreases, and spots and freckles increase due to exposure to ultraviolet rays due to intrinsic aging and photoaging. In particular, intrinsic aging occurs when the biosynthesis of biological proteins decreases as hormone secretion decreases or the function and activity of immune cells decreases, and this progresses rapidly due to the increase in reactive oxygen species.

It is known that humans continuously generate reactive oxygen species during the metabolic process, which acts as a direct or indirect cause of aging. Various antioxidants are used in cosmetics to prevent skin aging. Representative synthetic antioxidants include BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), and tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ). In general, synthetic antioxidants are widely used due to their excellent effectiveness and low price, but their use is restricted as they are known to cause not only self-toxicity but also hepatomegaly, fatty acid transformation, and cancer upon oral or skin contact.

Niacinamide and arbutin, which are used as whitening functional cosmetic ingredients, and retinol, which is used as a wrinkle-improving functional cosmetic ingredient, have problems with the whitening effect being reduced due to limitations in the mixing amount due to destruction of ingredients by oxidation and skin irritation. Recently, as various cosmetic compositions using natural substances have appeared on the market, consumers have become more interested in products using natural substances rather than existing products made of chemical substances. Accordingly, cosmetic compositions using various natural substances are being manufactured.

In addition, the wrinkle-improving effect of cosmetics is based on the effect of dermal layer improvement by various active ingredients in addition to the temporary effect of moisturizing by moisturizing factors, and the growth of retinol, vitamin C, and EGF, which are raw materials for representative wrinkle-improving cosmetics. Factor ingredients are well known to show anti-wrinkle efficacy by increasing collagen formation from human dermal fibroblasts. In order to prevent this phenomenon and maintain healthier and more beautiful skin, bioactive substances obtained from various known animals, plants, and microorganisms are added to cosmetics to maintain the skin's inherent functions and activate skin cells. Efforts have been made to effectively suppress aging.

In the field of cosmetics, research and development on functional cosmetics with whitening and wrinkle improvement effects are actively underway, and in particular, research using natural substances to avoid toxicity or irritation to the skin continues.

Therefore, the upper quantitative limit of Dogo hot spring water and herbal medicine fermented extract contained in the composition of the present invention can be selected within an appropriate range by a person skilled in the art.

The term "skin whitening" used in the present invention refers to whitening the skin. A person's skin color is determined by the concentration and distribution of melanin inside the skin. In addition to genetic factors, UV rays from the sun, fatigue, stress, etc. It is also influenced by environmental or physiological conditions. Melanin is synthesized in melanocytes in the epidermal layer of the skin. In melanosomes, an organelle within melanocytes, an enzyme called tyrosinase acts on tyrosine, a type of amino acid, to produce DOPA and dopaquinone. ) and then produced through a non-enzymatic oxidation reaction. If this synthesis of melanin occurs excessively within the skin, it darkens the skin tone and causes spots, freckles, etc. Therefore, by inhibiting the synthesis of melanin pigment by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase in the skin, not only can skin whitening be achieved by brightening the skin tone, but also skin hyperpigmentation such as spots and freckles caused by ultraviolet rays, hormones, and genetic causes. It can improve calmness.

In addition, in the present invention, the term "wrinkle" refers to fine lines that occur as the skin ages, and may be caused by genes, a decrease in collagen present in the skin dermis, external environment, etc. In the present invention, “wrinkle improvement” refers to suppressing or inhibiting the formation of wrinkles on the skin, or alleviating wrinkles that have already formed.

The main functions of skin fibroblasts include the regeneration of damaged skin tissue through extracellular matrix synthesis and proliferation, and endogenous aging factors such as extrinsic aging factors such as photoaging, accumulation of damage caused by free oxygen, and cell aging due to telomere disruption. They decrease the physiological activity of skin fibroblasts within the dermal layer. Type I collagen, which accounts for more than 95% of the skin's extracellular matrix and plays a very important part in the physiological activity of fibroblasts through interaction and signal exchange with cell adhesion molecules and cytoskeleton When the synthesis of collagen decreases, the amount of collagen in the skin tissue decreases, which leads to a decrease in surface tension, which not only reduces skin elasticity and forms skin wrinkles, but also reduces physiologically active functions, including cell proliferation and regeneration functions. It becomes the cause of a vicious cycle.

Therefore, collagen in skin fibroblasts can be considered to be directly related to skin regeneration, skin elasticity, skin wrinkle formation, and tissue repair or regeneration when skin is damaged. In other words, when the synthesis of collagen or procollagen in skin fibroblasts is promoted or the synthesis of matrix metallo-proteinase (hereinafter referred to as 'MMP'), which decomposes collagen, is inhibited, skin elasticity is improved, skin regeneration, Improving skin wrinkles, wound healing, repair and regeneration of damaged skin tissue; and skin aging prevention effects.

[Experimental example]

All statistical analyzes were performed using SPSS version 18.0 (IBM, Chicago, IL, USA). Differences in mean values between experimental groups (p <0.05) were determined using one-way ANOVA with Duncan's post-hoc test. Each experimental data was expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD).

Experimental Example 1: Cytotoxicity analysis

Cytotoxicity was measured using the MTT 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) reduction method. Cultured HaCaT cells were mixed well in DMEM medium and adjusted to 1x10 ⁵ cells/mL, and then 1 mL of prepared cells were added to a 24-well culture plate and cultured for 3 days. When the cells had grown to about 80%, samples of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 (0, 25, 50, 100, 300, 400, 500, 1000 μg) were added at different concentrations to medium without fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. /ml), the cells were cultured for an additional 24 hours, and the survival rate of the cells after culture was measured using the MTT reduction method.

Approximately 1/10 of the volume of growth medium was added with MTT solution (5 mg/ml) to each well, and then cultured at 37°C for another 4 hours. Afterwards, the medium was removed, being careful not to lose the formazan produced by reducing MTT, and left at room temperature for 30 minutes to completely remove the remaining medium. Then, the sample was dissolved using DMSO and then analyzed at 570 nm. The absorbance was measured. Cell survival rate was calculated according to Equation 1 below, and the results are shown in Table 3.

According to this, it was confirmed that not only the ingredients prepared according to Example 1 of the present invention but also the ingredients of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 can be safely used on human skin. Since the cosmetic compositions of Comparative Examples 4 to 8 were included in the components of Example 1 or other comparative examples, no separate cytotoxicity test was performed.

Experimental Example 2: Analysis of the effect of inhibiting MMP-1 synthesis

CCD-986sk was cultured in a 35 mm dish at a concentration of 1.5X10 ⁵ cells/ml until reaching approximately 80% confluency. After removing the original medium, it was washed with PBS to remove serum components in the medium, and then UVA (6.3 J/cm2) was irradiated for 24 hours using a UV light source (Coralife, 35W, UV) equipped with a filter. . After UVA irradiation, the samples of Examples or Comparative Examples of the present invention were administered at concentrations of 10 and 100 μg/ml, respectively, to DMEM medium without FBS, and then cultured for 24 hours. The medium cultured in this way was dispensed into a 96 well plate and reacted at 4°C overnight. Measurement of MMP-1 expression level induced by UVA irradiation was performed using the method used by Dunsmore et al.

First, the medium was washed three times with TBS (phosphate buffered saline + 0.05% Tween20) and then blocked with 3% PBS at 37°C for 1 hour. Afterwards, a solution of the primary antibody (monoclonal anti-MMP-1 antibody) diluted with blocking buffer at a volume ratio of 1:3000 was added and reacted at 37°C for 90 minutes. After washing with PBS, a solution of secondary antibody (alkaline phosphatase conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG) diluted with blocking buffer at a volume ratio of 1:3,000 was added and reacted at 37°C for 90 minutes. After washing with PBS, alkaline phosphatase substrate solution (1 mg/ml, p-mitrophenylphosphate in diethanolamine buffer) was added and reacted at room temperature for 30 minutes, and then the reaction was stopped with 3N NaOH. Next, absorbance was measured at 405 nm using a microplate reader, and the results are shown in Table 4 below.

In addition, when it was not fermented or when two types of herbal medicine were used, the effect of inhibiting the synthesis of MMP-1 protein was relatively low.

Experimental Example 3: Analysis of collagen synthesis promotion effect

In order to confirm the skin wrinkle improvement effect of the cosmetic compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples, the production amount of collagen, a protein that maintains skin elasticity, was measured. Fibroblasts were distributed in a ⁴⁸ well plate at a density of 1 Cultured in serum medium for an additional 24 hours. After incubation, the supernatant from each well was collected, and the amount of procollagen type I C-peptide (PICP) was measured using a procollagen type I C-peptide EIA kit (MK101, Takara, Japan) and converted to ng/ml. , the amount of collagen synthesized was measured, and the results are shown in Table 5.

According to this, Comparative Examples 1 and 2, which are a composite of Dogo hot spring water/three kinds of fermented herbal medicine complex and three kinds of fermented herbal medicine and Asan hot spring water or Onyang hot spring water prepared according to Example 1 of the present invention, were compared to the untreated group or other comparative examples. It was found that the effect of promoting collagen production was superior, and in particular, Example 1 containing Dogo hot spring water showed a relatively high effect of promoting collagen production. On the other hand, Comparative Examples 4 to 6, which included two types of fermented herbal medicines, and Comparative Example 3, which included three types of unfermented herbal medicines, had a relatively low collagen production promotion effect. In addition, Comparative Example 7 containing only Dogo Hot Spring water showed the lowest collagen production promotion effect.

Experimental Example 4: Tyrosinase inhibition activity analysis

The tyrosinase inhibitory ability of the fermented products of Examples and Comparative Examples was measured by the method of Yagi et al. (1986). Melanin exists in the basal layer of the epidermis, and melanin synthesis is regulated by tyrosinase in the intracellular melanosomes of melanocytes. Therefore, inhibiting tyrosinase activity can reduce melanin synthesis and pigmentation. 0.2 ml of 110 Unit/ml mushroom tyrosinase was added to a mixture of 0.2 ml of substrate solution and 0.1 ml of sample solution in which 10 mM L-DOPA was dissolved in 0.5 ml of 1.15M sodium phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 in a test tube. Afterwards, the reaction was carried out at 25°C for 2 minutes, and the absorbance of DOPA chrome produced in the reaction solution was measured at 490 nm using a microplate reader. The tyrosinase inhibitory activity was expressed as the rate of decrease in absorbance of the group with and without the addition of the sample solution, and the results are shown in Table 6 below.

According to this, the Dogo hot spring water/3 types of fermented herbal medicines in Example 1 of the present invention were found to have the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity, the Asan hot spring water/3 types of fermented herbal medicines in Comparative Example 1, and the Onyang hot spring water/3 types of fermented herbs in Comparative Example 2. The three types of fermented herbal medicines also showed relatively high tyrosinase inhibitory activity, although slightly lower than that of Example 1. On the other hand, Comparative Example 7, which contained only pure hot spring water, and Comparative Example 8, which did not contain hot spring water but contained only three types of fermented herbal medicines, showed the lowest tyrosinase inhibitory activity, and even when it contained two or less types of fermented herbal medicines, the relative It showed low tyrosinase inhibitory activity.

Experimental Example 5: Analysis of melanin production inhibition ability

B16F1 cells, which are mouse-derived melanocytes, produce melanin. Melanin is biosynthesized in melanosome, an organelle within melanocytes present in the basal layer of the epidermis, and the amount produced can be compared by measuring the absorbance in the visible light range. After inoculating B16F1 cells, the sample was processed for 3 days, the medium was removed, the cells were washed with PBS, 1 ml of 1 N NaOH was added to each well, and the cell membrane was dissolved by stirring, thereby dissolving the melanin component and releasing it in the visible light region. The amount of melanin produced was measured by measuring the absorbance at 400 nm, which is the blue visible light range with the shortest wavelength.

The amount of melanin was measured by expressing the absorbance per unit cell (10 ⁶ cells), and the amount of melanin production relative to the control group (untreated group) was calculated as an inhibition rate (%), and the results are summarized in Table 7.

Classification (unit: %) Concentration (㎍/㎖) 50 100 Untreated 39.8±0.5 Example 1 69.3±0.4 73.5±1.4 Comparative Example 1 63.5±0.9 70.7±0.2 Comparative Example 2 64.0±1.1 69.9±0.7 Comparative Example 3 43.7±1.3 48.7±0.8 Comparative Example 4 52.4±0.8 62.1±0.4 Comparative Example 5 36.2±0.9 45.7±0.3 Comparative Example 6 44.2±1.4 49.6±0.5 Comparative Example 7 43.5±0.5 48.6±1.7 Comparative Example 8 42.5±0.8 50.3±0.9
