Blackberry leaves and linoleic acid as new anti-aging materials

According to a new study released by IFSCC International Federation of societies of cosmetic chemists, blackberry leaf extract may become a new raw material in the field of anti-aging skin It is said that the raw material contains collagen, elastin and other ingredients, which helps to prevent the appearance of skin wrinkles, thus has a greater anti-aging effect As we all know, IFSCC (international cosmetics technologist alliance) is an organization composed of cosmetics technologists from eight countries in 1959 At present, it has about 15000 members in 45 countries The organization holds a conference every two years, with more than 1600 participants and nearly 200 research results published It has become the most authoritative research results publishing base worthy of the name of cosmetics technologists in the world Therefore, the results of this study will bring new materials and good news to the cosmetics and cosmetics industry This research was conducted by scientists led by Martina Hermann from symrise company They mainly studied and recorded the effect of MMPs, a very important enzyme in the anti-aging process of blackberry leaf extracts, and obtained this research result According to reports, most of MMPs are secreted in the form of Pro MMP Only by activating the protease can they have an effective effect on cardiac extracellular matrix In vitro, MMPs can be activated by organic amalgam, plasmin, kallikrein, cathepsin and neutral elastase MMPs can decompose extracellular protein structure and play a variety of roles In the process of skin aging, it can degrade collagen and elastin, resulting in skin loss of elasticity and firmness In addition, solar radiation, especially ultraviolet radiation, will increase the level of MMP enzyme in the skin, leading to overall aging Through research, scientists found that blackberry leaf extract can inhibit MMP, especially MMP-1 enzyme MMP1 is believed to be responsible for the degradation of collagen type I and type II, two major skin collagen substances, to a large extent Many data of specific research have proved the anti-aging effect of this new ingredient In addition, the team also studied its antioxidant properties, and found that it can basically achieve the antioxidant effect similar to green tea They also said that blackberry leaf extract is composed of many functional materials, such as polyphenolic complex and flavanoids, so there is no reason why this new raw material component will be popular with product manufacturers Dr Dirk Sorgenfrey, global product manager of symrise, said the success of the in vitro trials of the new ingredient would prompt the company to start the next in vivo experiments, using skin samples from the patient's upper abdomen The results of this study will be released by the end of this year, which is expected to bring more and more effective good news about this new material to all sectors of society He also said the extract is suitable for a range of anti-aging products, including various creams, lotions and creams for the face and body At present, there is no product containing this component in the market, but it has entered the experimental stage of consumer products Some experts are also very satisfied with the results of this study They believe that in the near future, blackberry leaf extract ingredients will not only appear in traditional medicine, but also in many anti-aging cosmetics and care products Coincidentally, a recent study published in the American Journal of clinical nutrition also showed that a large intake of vitamin C and linoleic acid can help to resist skin aging and improve the appearance of the skin after aging At the same time, reducing the intake of fat and carbohydrate can also improve the skin It is estimated that these ingredients will be used in cosmetics and nutritional cosmetics more frequently Scientists say that in addition to the familiar vitamin C, CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is the most important functional fatty acid discovered by human beings in the past 20 years CLA is an isomer of linoleic acid and a natural active nutrient widely existing in human and animals Medical research shows that conjugated linoleic acid has many important physiological functions, such as reducing fat and reducing weight, anti-cancer, regulating metabolism, improving immunity, anti-oxidation, regulating blood pressure, reducing blood lipid, anti atherosclerosis, increasing bone density, regulating blood glucose, preventing diabetes, etc., so it has been applied in many substances In fact, skin aging is not only reflected in the wrinkles and other phenomena that people often talk about, but also manifested as aging dry (dry skin after aging) and skin atrophy (thin skin) and other phenomena While using anti wrinkle cosmetics and care products to mask and prevent aging, people can increase the intake of nutritional care products or commonly known nutritional aids to fundamentally delay the aging process or alleviate the appearance of aging signs In addition, biotechmarine, based and inspired by the ocean, has recently launched 11 new ingredients, including nine from marine plants and two from Breton seaweed in France The company's latest hair care product line contains three new ingredients: cramba maritima, Limonium latifolium and Inula crithmoid The first kind of cramba matisma can protect the fiber structure of hair and the effect of shining hair color at the same time, while the second kind of Limonium latifolium can prevent hair from static electricity, thus protecting hair from damage The final Inula crithmoid enhances the natural color of your hair and gives you a shiny, healthy feel Moreover, it is also a very good anti-aging ingredient, which can be used to tighten the skin and delay the appearance of various signs of skin aging For some sensitive skin, the company also launched aster matime, which contains soothing skin and calming factors, which are the best choice for anti-aging products.
