Studies on Multi-Functional Cosmetics Activities of Ganoderma lucidum Fermentation Broths

초록/요약

This study was designed to find and examine any cosmetic activity of the Ganoderma. lucidum (G. lucidum) fermentation broths obtained by submerged fermentation method with respect to G. lucidum strain screening, the optimization of fruiting body fermentation process, the identification of essential metabolites, the measurement of anti-oxidation activity and whitening activity, and their cosmetic efficacy evaluation on the human skin. Compared to the extract from its fruiting body and other parts of G. lucidum, its fruiting body fermentation broths have some advantages in short production cycle, in process control, and in low-cost. As new cosmetic raw materials replacing the traditional method utilizing, for example, the G. lucidum fruiting body, the G. lucidum fermentation broths reduce production costs but improve the quality of products, hence is of great significance in the field of cosmetics. The contents of total saccharides, triterpenes, and total phenols, and antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibition activities of the G. lucidum fermentation broths were higher than those of either ethanol or hot water extracts from the fruiting body. The antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibition activities were strongly affected by the cultivation conditions. The best fermentation medium was malt medium, and the fermentation period was 5–6 days. Under such conditions, the rates of DPPH radical scavenging, superoxide anion scavenging, and tyrosinase inhibition can be maintained at 94.05%, 30.54%, and 93.08%, respectively, compared to the control, indicating that the G. lucidum fermentation broth is an effective source of naturally active ingredients, thus has a good health care application prospect. With the G. lucidum fermentation broth, the mycelium, the fruiting body and the spores, essential metabolites were measured. A total of 48, 25, 364 and 28 metabolites were detected in each fermentation broth, respectively. 15 and 9 polysaccharides were up-regulated in the fermentation broth and the mycelium extracts, respectively. In addition, triterpenoids were detected predominantly in the fruiting body and betaine mainly were detected in the spore. Besides, this study provided a comprehensive description of overall metabolic landscape of fermentation broth, the mycelium, the fruiting body and the spores, especially the fermentation broth, which would facilitate the studies on the function and pharmacodynamics of different parts of G. lucidum at the molecular level. The G. lucidum fruit extracts and the G. lucidum fermentation broths also manifested a significant cytotoxic activity against malignant skin cells but a low cytotoxic activity against normal skin cells in vitro. A significant difference in its cytotoxic activity was observed between the tested extracts and the G. lucidum fermentation broths. The above results may indicate that the G. lucidum fermentation broths provide effective and safe sources for cosmetic ingredients and thus have good application prospects in the R&D of cosmetics. To further verify the cosmetic advantage of the G. lucidum fermentation broth, a comparison of cosmetic function between the fruiting body ethanol extract and its fermentation broths were made by in vitro experiment. Skin anti-aging effects of the fruit ethanol extracts and the fermentation broths were evaluated in relation to normal human dermal fibroblasts with respect to the expression of MMPs and TIMP-1 after cultured in the presence of the fruit ethanol extracts or the fermentation broths at 100 ppm. The G. lucidum fermentation broths down-regulated the expression of MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-9 by 61.59%, 39.21%, 49.49% of control, respectively while they up-regulated the expression of TIMP-1 by 151.95% of control. In addition, the fermentation broths up-regulated the expression of procollagen Ⅰ secretion in UVB-irradiated (40 mJ/cm2) NF cells by 139.92% over control, indicating that the G. lucidum fermentation broths are good sources for skin anti-aging cosmetics. The G. lucidum fermentation broths down-regulated the activity of cellular tyrosinase at 42.76% of control, exhibiting cellular tyrosinase inhibition of 57.24%. Additionally, the G. lucidum fermentation broths also inhibited the melanin production in B16F10 cells. The inhibitory efficacy of total melanin production in B16F10 cells treated with the G. lucidum fermentation broths at 100 ppm were at the value of 30.60% of sham non-treated cells. For further cosmetic evaluation of the G. lucidum fermentation, we manufactured a skin care cream containing the G. lucidum fermentation broth and measured its cosmetic efficacies in various categories. The skin cream increased skin hydration, decreased skin trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), reduced (small/medium) fine lines, (small/medium) wrinkles, melanin index, melanin concentration, skin pigmentation area significantly after 4 weeks of topical use. It also significantly increased the skin texture roughness and decreased the melanin production. In summary, the G. lucidum fermentation broths show stronger anti-aging and whitening effects than the G. lucidum fruiting body ethanol extracts. It is suggested that the G. lucidum fermentation broths are safe and efficient in many skin care functions, implying that these unique metabolites are promising in new skin care cosmetics development.
