To investigate effects of pine essential oil isolated by steam distillation from Pinus densiflora needles (PN) and twigs (PT) on anti-oxidant and anti-aging activities, the experiments were carried out to determine anti-oxidant and antiaging activities on DPPH radical scavenging activity, NBT/xanthine oxidase-superoxide scavenging activity, silica-induced intracellular $H_2O_2$ and hydroxyl radical generation in RAW264.7 cells, hyaluronidase and elastase activities in vitro. Essential oil of PN and PT were contained 0.225 and 0.176 (w/v) %, respectively. PN was contained with 30 kinds of essential oil and its major constituent is $\alpha$-pinene (21.5%). Further PT was contained with 40 kinds of essential oil and its major constituent is $\beta$-pinene (22.4%) in GC/MS assay. Other essential oils of PN were $\beta$-pinene, camphene, myrcene, limonene, terpinolene, $\alpha$-terpineol, bornyl acetate, $\alpha$-copaene, caryophellene and humulene and PT were $\alpha$-pinene, camphene, phellandrene, limonene, terpinolene, $\alpha$-terpineol, bornyl acetate, $\alpha$-copaene, caryophellene and humulene. The essential oil of PT have more active than that of PN in anti-oxidant activity which has significant DPPH radical and superoxide scavenging activity, and significant inhibitory activities on silica-induced intracellular $H_2O_2$ and hydroxyl radical generation, as well as, significantly inhibited elastase and hyaluronidase activities. Further, phellandrene, myrcene and $\alpha$-pinene have DPPH radical and superoxide scavenging activities, $\beta$-pinene, terpinolene, myrcene and phellandrene inhibited silica-induced intracellular $H_2O_2$ and hydroxyl radical generations. And also phellandrene and $\beta$-pinene inhibited hyaluronidase and elastase activities. In conclusion, the essential oils isolated from PN and PT have anti-oxidant and anti-aging activities.

강한 천연 생리활성물질인 폴리페놀과 탄닌을 다량 함유한 석류를 노화방지제 및 기능성화장품의 화장품 원료로 이용할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고자, 과즙과 과피 및 종자유로 나누어 분리추출한 후, DPPH radical과 superoxide의 소거작용, 세포내 $H_2O_2$와 hydroperoxide 및 superoxide 생성 억제작용에 미치는 영향에 관하여 실험하여 항산화 작용을 비교 평가하였다. 석류과피 메탄올 추출액은 전반적으로 가장 유의성 있는 항산화 작용을 보였다. 자체적인 항산화 작용뿐만 아니라 세포내에서 free radical이 생성되는 것을 억제하는 작용도 있는 것으로 여겨지며, 석류과즙 농축액은 free radical을 소거하는 항산화 작용이 있으며, 또한 석류 종자유는 강한 hydroperoxide 생성 억제효과를 나타내어, 특히 hydroxy기를 가진 readical의 생성을 억제하는데 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다. 이상과 같은 결과로 보아, 석류의 과즙보다는 과피의 추출물이 항산화 작용이 더 뛰어난 것을 알 수 있었으므로 피부미용에 관련된 건강보조식품 개발시 과피성분을 함유한 추출물을 원료로 사용하는 것이 효과적이라고 사료되며, 특히 피부 주름 방지제 등과 같은 기능성 화장품을 개발하고자 할 때는 석류 종자유를 화장품 원료로 하여 개발하는 것이 더 효과적이라고 사료된다.

We investigated the active oxygen scavenging activity and active compound from Humulus japonicus. The ethyl acetate and butanol fraction exhibited strong scavenging effects on hydroxyl radical. Furthermore active compound was isolated and purified using Amberlite XAD-2 column chromatography and preparative HPLC from ethyl acetate fracton, and major compound was identified as a luteolin-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucoside by the MS, UV, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR analyses. Luteolin-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucoside exhibited strong scavenging effect on active oxygens such as superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide.

이 연구에서는 천연 항산화소재와 미백소재 개발을 위하여 미강을 Bacillus subtilis에 접종하여 $40^{\circ}C$에서 36 h 동안 발효한 미강추출(RFB)과 80 % ethanol을 이용한 미강추출물(RB)을 사용하여 연구하였다. 추출물의 free radical 소거활성, superoxide radical 소거활성, hydroxyl radical 소거활성은 농도 $100 \;{\mu}L$/mL에서 가장 큰 활성을 나타내었고 리놀산을 이용한 지질과산화 억제 활성 또한 농도 $100 \;{\mu}L$/mL에서 가장 큰 활성을 나타내었고, RB에 비하여 RFB의 더 높은 항산화 능을 확인하였다. Mushroom tyrosinase의 활성 저해효과는 $100 \;{\mu}L$/mL 농도에서 mushroom tyrosinase 의 활성을 80 % 저해하였으며 이는 vitamin C에 비해 더 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 그러므로 우리는 미강 발효추출물이 우수한 항산화와 미백 효능을 갖는 화장품 소재로서 개발 가능성이 클 것으로 기대된다.

Hawthorn fruit is a conventional medicine used in treating cardiovascular diseases. Its therapeutic effects may relate to its antioxidant compounds. In this study, we evaluated the antioxidant activity of $CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc, n-butanol and water fractions from 70% methanolic hawthorn fruit extract by total phenolic and flavonoid contents, total antioxidant activity, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, superoxide radical scavenging activity, reducing power assay, lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity and protective effect against hydroxyl-radical-induced DNA damage. Results showed that the EtOAc fraction contained significantly greater antioxidant activities than other fractions, which suggests that the potent EtOAc fraction should be used for further studies to identify the antioxidant compounds.

This study was performed to determine if Juglandis semen extract(JSE) has free radical scavenging and antioxidant activities. Superoxide anion generation by xanthine oxidase/xanthine and in neutrophils activated by phorbol-12, 13-dibutyrate was inhibited by JSE and its effect was dose-dependent. JSE also inhibited generation of $H_2O_2$ induced by glucose oxidase/glucose and in opossum kidney cells treated with antimycin A. JSE exerted a direct $H_2O_2$ scavenging effect. Exposure of opossum kidney cells to 1mM tBHP caused a significant increase in lipid peroxidation, which was prevented by JSE. JSE also prevented tBHP-induced LDH release. These data suggest that JSE has free radical scavenging and antioxidant activities. However, further studies should be carried out to find the active ingredient(s) of JSE that exerts radical scavenging action.

Ocimum sanctum, the Indian holy basil has significant abilities to scavenge highly reactive free radicals. Shade dried leaf powder of plant has extracted with water and alcohol, fractionated with different solvents. Both extracts and their fractions were found to be good scavengers of Superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. Free radical scavenging action of these compared with ascorbic acid, a known antioxidant.

Flavonoids are class of polyphenolic compounds widely distributed in the plant kingdom, which display a variety of biological activities, including antiviral, antithrombotic, antiinflammatory, antihistaminic, antioxidant and free-radica 1 scavenging abilities. The antioxidant enzyme (AOE) system plays an important role in the defense against oxidative stress insults. To determine whether flavonoid, myricetin can exert antioxidative effects not only directly by modulating the AOE system but also scavenging free radical, we investigated the influence of the flavonoid myricetin on cell viability, different antioxidant enzyme activities, ROS level and the expression of different antioxidant emzyme in B16F10 murine melanoma cells. Myricetin in a concentration range from 6.25 to $50\;{\mu}M$ decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme activities, but catalase (CAT) activity was increased. In the myricetin-treated group, ROS levels were decreased dose-dependently. Antioxidant enzyme expression was measured by RT-PCR. Myricetin treatment of B16F10 cells increased catalase expression. Expression levels of copper zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZn SOD) were not affected by exposure of myricetin. Manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn SOD) and GPx expression levels decreased slightly after myricetin treatment. In conclusion, the antioxidant capacity of myricetin was due to CAT and free-radical scavenging.

In an attempt to define the effects of biphenyldimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) on the lipid peroxidation and oxygen free radical scavenging enzymes activities in mercuric chloride-induced hepatotoxic rats, we studied malondialdehyde (MDA) level and the activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in liver of the rats at 24 hr after the injection of mercuric chloride. Sprague-Dalwey albino rats were injected subcutaneously with mercuric chloride (5 mg/kg) only and mercuric chloride (5 mg/kg) plus. DDB (200 mg/kg/day, p.o) is administered for 4 days prior to 3 days from the injection of mercuric chloride. The group treated with mercuric chloride showed significantly higher MDA level and lower catalase and SOD activities as compared with that of control group. The group treated with mercuric chloride plus DDB showed significantly lower MDA level and catalase activity and higher SOD activity as compared with that of mercuric chloride-treated group. These results suggest that the excessive oxygen free radicals resulting from the depression of superoxide dismutase activity is an important determinant in the pathogenesis of mercuric chloride-induced hepatotoxicity and DDB has antioxidant effects.
