|
Skin plays important roles in protecting the internal organs from the chemical-biological risk factors and ultraviolet light.
Exposure to the chemical and biological stimuli has a detrimental effect on skin's structure and physiological regulation.
Therefore, much attention has been paid to natural products that show biological activities such as anti-oxidation, anti-agingand anti-bacterial activities. In this study, we investigated the skin-related biological activities of Oenothera lamarckiana aerialpart extract. The extract contained 229.35 mg TAE (tannic acid equivalents)/g total polyphenolic compounds and the extractshowed relative high antioxidant activity (SC50 value: 8.52 ¥ìg/mL). The IC50 value against tyrosinase and elastase were307.94 and 181.51 ¥ìg/mL, respectively. This suggested that O. lamarckiana can be applied to whiten skin and slow theaging of skin. O. lamarckiana extract showed a growth inhibitory effect on Staphylococcu epidermidis (minimum inhibitoryconcentration: 250 ¥ìg/mL). Interestingly, O. lamarckiana extract showed no inhibitory effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosaon the paper disc assay. Yet the extract inhibited the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on the broth dilution assay in adose-dependent manners. Taken together, O. lamarckiana could have good potential for development as an additive in thecosmetic industry.
