In this study, exosomes were isolated by ultrafiltration from Lactobacillus rhamnosus J2K-821 and their various effects for skin were evaluated. Their size and concentration were identified 50 ~ 200 nm and 3.22 × 10⁸ particles/mL, respectively through nanoparticle tracking analysis. In order to verify the inflammatory relief effect of Lactobacillus rhamnosus-derived exosomes (LRDEs), their nitric oxide (NO) production inhibitory ability in RAW 264.7 macrophages induced an inflammatory reaction with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was confirmed. It was revealed that they inhibited NO production in a concentration-dependent manner. To evaluate the antioxidant activity and skin barrier improvement effect of LRDEs, their 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and hyaluronidase inhibitory activity were confirmed. It was also revealed that their activities were increased by concentration-dependent manner. Through these results, It is believed that LRDEs can be used as a effective natural cosmetic ingredient for anti-inflammation, antioxidation and skin barrier improvement.

Extract of Centella asiatica(ECA), which is poorly water-soluble extract from the Centella asiatica is known to express excellent wound healing properties. $ECA-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ $(asiaticoside-{\beta}-cyclodextrin\;and\;genin-{\beta}-cyc1odextrin)$ solid dispersion system, which was prepared by freezedrying method, was formulated as gels containing poloxamer 407 and propylene glycol, and evaluated with respect to their viscosity, stability, skin permeation and drug amount in the skin of hairless mouse. The average molar ratio $asiaticoside-{\beta}-CD$ and $genin-{\beta}-CD$ was 1:1.7 and 1:22, respectively. When the molar ratio of genin and ${\beta}-CD$ was 1:5, madecassic acid made 100% solid dispersion system and asiatic acid about 65%. In dissolution study, >99% of asiaticoside from $asiaticoside-{\beta}-CD$ was dissolved in 5 minutes, and >99% madecassic acid and >64% asiatic acid from $genin-{\beta}-CD$. The apparent viscosity of poloxamer 407 gels with $ECA-{\beta}-CD$ solid dispersion system increased in proportion to poloxamer 407 and propylene glycol concentration. In the accelerated stability test, all $ECA-{\beta}-CD$ poloxamer 407 gels showed that asiaticoside was most stable and madecassic acid stable and asiatic acid similar to stability of gel with free ECA. The permeation amount of asiaticoside in poloxamer gels through hairless mouse skin decreased as the concentration of poloxamer 407 increased. When propylene glycol was added at the level of 10%, the permeation amount of asiaticoside at poloxamer gels through hairless mouse skin increased but from 15% it decreased. The permeation of asiaticoside into the skin of hairless mouse was estimated to be about $0.10\;{\mu}g/cm^2$.

Grape skins are a natural resource rich in antioxidants, but people only eat grape flesh and have discarded the skins. This study investigated the possibility of using grape skin extract as a raw material for functional cosmetics. The dried grape skin powder was put in distilled water and stirred for 1 h, and then the supernatant separated from the solid was used as an extract. The extract yield was 17.8 ~ 31.4%, and the total flavonoid and polyphenol contents in the extract were 1.8 ~ 2.5 mg-QE g-extract^-1 and 16.9 ~ 20.3 mg-GAE g-extract^-1, respectively. The extract effectively removed radicals of DPPH and ABTS, and the degree of scavenging increased with the concentration of the extract. The extract inhibited the collagen hydrolysis activity of collagenase, and the activity inhibition rate increased to 84.2% as the extract concentration increased. However, notable inhibition of tyrosinase by the extract was not found. As the extract of Chamaecyparis obtusa was added to the grape-skin extract, the tyrosinase inhibition rate increased, but the DPPH radical scavenging activity decreased. This study found that grape skin extract has a high antioxidant capacity and anti-wrinkle effect but a low whitening effect. However, by mixing the grape skin extract with the extract of C. obtusa in an optimal ratio, the whitening effect was improved with excellent antioxidant and anti-wrinkle effects.

To obtain the basic information for the effective use of collagen, the flow behavior of collagen extracted from skin tissue was studied. The viscosity of collagen varied with sex, age and the kinds of collagen by extraction method. Regardless of the kinds of collagen, the viscosity of collagen extracted from $6{\sim}12$ week old rat was relatively high. In case of the same age, the viscosity showed higher in female than in male rat and in acid soluble collagen than in insoluble collagen. The solution of the collagen showed the characteristics of Bingham plastic and thixotropic fluid, and the viscosity varied distinctly with temperature, pH, ethanol concentration and collagen concentration. As collagen concentration increased to 6%, the consistency of acid soluble- and insoluble collagen showed a tendency to increase linearly(r = 0.972 for acid soluble collagen, r = 0.957 for insoluble collagen). In that range of collagen concentration, the increasing velocity of consistency was higher in acid soluble collagen than in insoluble collagen. The consistency of collagen solution was decreased according to temperature rising. In case of acid soluble collagen, the consistency is decreased abruptly between $30{\sim}40^{\circ}C$. According to pH variation, the consistency of acid soluble collagen showed biphasic phenomenon, though the consistency of insoluble collagen was found not to be influenced by pH. The consistency of acid soluble- and insoluble collagen according to ethanol concentration showed high between $40{\sim}60%$ of ethanol concentration.

The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of onion (Allium cepa) skin extract (OSE) on pancreatic lipase (PL), the key enzyme of the digestion and absorption of dietary fat in the small intestine, and to evaluate its potential for the inhibition of body-weight gain. OSE inhibited PL with an $IC_{50}$ of 53.70 mg/mL, which means as potent as 0.07635% of the activity of orlistat. At 3 and 4 hr after administration of OSE, the plasma triacylglycerol concentration was significantly lower in the OSE-treated rats than control. Body-weight gain and parametrial adipose tissue weights were significantly lower in mice fed the high-fat diet (fat comprises 31% of total calories) with 5%(w/w) OSE than in control. The results suggest that OSE may be an effective nutraceutical for the inhibition of body-weight gain.
