Abstract

This study was performed to determine the whitening effect of organic solvent extracts from the centipede, Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans. We prepared different concentrations (50%, 70% and 100%) of ethanol, methanol, 100% ethyl acetate and water extracts. We tested melanin inhibitory effect and tyrosinase activity using B16/F10 melanoma cell. As a result, treatment of organic solvent extracts is decreased the biosynthesis of melanin and tyrosinase activity to 36 ~ 86%. Especially the 70% ethanol extracts was the most effective in B16/F10 melanoma cells. In the study on melanogenic protein expression, 70% ethanol extracts of Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans blocked glycosylation of tyrosinase. Therefore this result suggests that 70% ethanol extracts could be developed as skin whitening agents.

피부는 자외선과 같은 외부자극으로부터 피부를 보호하기 위해 멜라닌을 생성한다. 하지만 과도한 멜라닌의 생성은 기미, 주근깨와 같은 색소 침착을 유발하며 미관상 좋지 않을 뿐 아니라 피부 질환을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 왕지네 추출물이 멜라닌 생성에 영향을 미치는지 여부를 B16/F10 melanoma 세포를 이용한 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과 유기용매를 이용한 왕지네 추출물의 멜라닌 생성량은 무처리 대비 36 ~ 67%로서 멜라닌 생성이 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며 특히 70% 에탄올을 이용한 왕지네 추출물의 멜라닌 생성량은 36%로 실험을 진행했던 추출물들 중에서 가장 낮음을 확인하였다. 이는 세포내 티로시나아제 효소 활성 측정에서도 유사한 결과를 얻었으며 이에 70% 에탄올로 추출한 왕지네 추출물은 피부 미백 기능성소재로서의 가능성이 높을 것으로 사료된다. 또한 티로시나아제 효소 활성을 단백질 수준에서 검정한 결과, 앞선 실험에서 티로시나아제 효소 활성이 가장 낮았던 70% 에탄올로 추출한 왕지네 추출물의 경우 세포내 glycosylation 된 티로시나아제의 발현이 감소함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 70% 에탄올로 추출된 왕지네 추출물이 세포내 티로시나아제의 glycosylation을 억제하여 결과적으로 멜라닌 생성을 저해하는 것으로 추측할 수 있다.
