A Study on the Anti-wrinkle Activities of Sesamum indicum L. Ethanol Extracts on CCD-986sk

Abstract

요 약: 본 연구에서는 참깨 추출물의 주름개선 화장품 원료로의 가능성을 확인하기 위하여, 참깨의 70% 에탄올 추출물을 제조하여, 엘라스타제 저해능, 콜라게나제 저해능, matrixmetallopoteinases (MMPs)의 단백질, mRNA 발현 저해 효능을 측정하였다. Elastase와 collagenase 저해활성은 1000 µg/mL 농도에서 각각 37.8%와 45%의 효소 활성을 억제를 나타내었다. 섬유아세포에서 참깨 에탄올 추출물의 세포 생존율을 확인한 결과 100 µg/mL 농도에서 96%의 생존율을 보였다. 참깨 에탄올 추출물을 처리한 섬유아세포에서 matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3)의 단백질 발현 및 mRNA 발현 억제 효과를 확인한 결과 단백질 발현은 100 µg/mL 농도에서 63%, 43%, 49%의 저해율을 나타내었고, mRNA 발현 억제는 최고농도인 100 µg/mL에서 각각 82% 79%, 82%의 저해율을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로 보아 참깨 70% 에탄올 추출물이 주름개선용 기능성 화장품 소재로서의 응용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. Abstract:In order to investigate the possibility of Sesamum indicum L. (S. indicum) extract as an active ingredient for wrinkle-care cosmetics, we prepared 70% ethanolic extract of S. indicum and measured its elastase inhibitory activity and collagenase inhibitory activity. We also evaluated the effect of S. indicum extract on protein and mRNA expression of MMPs in fibroblast cell (CCD-986sk). For anti-wrinkle effects, elastase inhibition activities and collagenase inhibition activities were 37.8% and 45% at a dose of 1,000 µg/mL of S. indicum 70% ethanol extract. For a cell viability test, measured on fibroblast cell by ethanol extract of S. indicum, results showed 96% with cell viability at 100 µg/mL concentration. According to the results of western blot of ethanol extract from S. indicum the expression of the matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) protein was decreased by 63%, 43%, 49% at 100 µg/mL concentration. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of ethanol extract from S. indicum showed that the expression of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3 mRNA was decreased by 82%, 79%, 82% at 100 µg/mL concentration. The findings suggest that 70% ethanol extract from S. indicum has potential as a cosmeceutical ingredient with anti-wrinkle effects.
