Anti-Elastase, Anti-Tyrosinase and Anti-Oxidant of Rubus Fraxinifolius Stem Methanolic Extract

Abstract

The RFS extract solution and pancreatic elastase (PPE) were mixed in Trizma®-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), then pre-incubated at 25 o C for 5 min. Substrate N-Succinyl-Ala-Ala-Ala-p-nitroanilide (SANA) was added to the mixture and incubated at 25 o C for 20 min in 96-well microplate (Nunc). The optical density due to the formation of p-nitroaniline was ABSTRACT Introduction: Some Rubus were reported had anti-skin aging activity. Rubus fraxinifolius was one of Rubus genus which lives in Indonesian highland. Objective: This study was to examine elastase, tyrosinase, and oxidant inhibitory activity of R. fraxinifolius stem (RFS) extract. Methods: Extraction was done by a Soxhlet apparatus using methanol as solvent. Elastase inhibition activity was determined, which based on the formation of p-nitroaniline. Tyrosinase inhibition activity evaluated based on inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase by the sample with L-DOPA as substrate. The activity of antioxidant was determined using the DPPH radical scavenger method. LC-MS was used for prediction of naturally occurring phytochemicals. Results: The RFS extract yield was 9.03 %. The RFS extract revealed inhibition activity against elastase and tyrosinase with IC 50 128.85 ppm, and 155.19 ppm, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging activity gave IC 50 63.04 ppm. Total phenolic content of the extract was 387.99+3.21 mg GAE/g extract. The LC-MS analysis showed the presence of at least 13 different organic compounds in RFS extract, which might contribute to the bioactivity. Conclusion: Therefore, this experiment further proved that RFS extract might be useful as a natural product ingredient of anti-photoaging skincare products because of its ability to inhibit elastase, tyrosinase, and as an antioxidant.

Standardisasi Ekstrak Buah Ceremai (Phyllanthus Acidus L. Skeels) dan Aktivitas Inhibisi Enzim Elastase

“…Semakin tinggi kemampuan sampel untuk menghambat aktivitas elastase maka MeOSuc-AAPV-pNA yang terbentuk akan semakin rendah terlihat pada warna yang dihasilkan yaitu warna yang agak kuning / bening [42]. Mekanisme penghambatan enzim elastase oleh sampel diamati dengan mengukur serapan pada panjang gelombang 401 nm menggunakan ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay) [20]. Retinol digunakan sebagai kontrol positif karena memiliki efek antioksidan dan digunakan sebagai senyawa anti aging [43].…”

“…Elastase is an enzyme that degrades elastin, resulting in skin elasticity being maintained (Desmiaty et al, 2020). Meanwhile, collagenase is an enzyme that plays a role in extracellular J Pharm Sci Clin Res, 2023, 01 73 matrix remodeling, including the breakdown of collagen to maintain skin strength (Pientaweeratch et al, 2016).…”
