Raw materials suitable for a sustainable society have attracted interest in the cosmetics industry. We focused on rice bran as a sustainable material and evaluated the gelation behavior of paraffin extracted from rice bran (rice paraffin) against liquid paraffin, squalane, jojoba oil, and silicone oil. In addition, the frictional properties of the prepared organogel on an artificial skin surface were evaluated using a sinusoidal motion friction evaluation system. Rice paraffin solidified all oils even at the lowest wax concentration of 5 wt%. The hardness and kinetic friction coefficient μ k increased with an increase in the wax composition. The hardness and μ k of organogels solidified with rice paraffin were smaller than those of gels solidified with petroleum-derived paraffin. These differences are caused by the smaller carbon amount of rice paraffin. The friction parameters depended on the type of oil: the μ k of RLG composed of rice and liquid paraffin was greater than that of the other three oils (R, L, and G denote rice paraffin, liquid paraffin, and gel, respectively). These findings promote the development of lipsticks and cleansing gels consisting of sustainable development goal-responsive raw materials.

Six optically active (Z)-7-decen-4-olide derivatives (1a-1f) were synthesized in 99% enantiomeric excess using diastereomeric resolution. The odour properties of the racemic and optically active 1a-1f were evaluated in terms of their orthonasal aromas. All of the stereoisomers had different odour characteristics and thresholds. Decen-4-olides (1a-1c) had a strong fruity note, whereas undecen-4-olide (1d and 1e) and dodecen-4-olide (1f) had a strong green note. For 7-alken-4-olides (1a, 1d, and 1f), the (R)-enantiomer had a lower odour threshold than the (S)-enantiomer. In contrast, no difference in the odour threshold was observed for the enantiomers of the 8-alken-4-olides (1b and 1e). Furthermore, the antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli; ATCC 25922) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus; ATCC 29213) were investigated. Although the no differences in the antimicrobial activity of the stereoisomers was observed, 1d and 1e showed slight antimicrobial activity against E. coli, whereas only 1f showed antimicrobial activity against S. aureus. No antimicrobial activity was exhibited by (R)-1f, whereas (S)-1f exhibited strong antimicrobial activity.

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is a generic term that encompasses eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are abundant in fish, and α-linolenic acid, which is abundant in perilla oil. These fatty acids became well known following an epidemiological study conducted in Greenland about 50 years ago. EPA formulations, with their putative prophylactic effect against cardiovascular disease, first became clinically available in the 1990s in Japan. There were reports of their association with mental health, especially depression, and from around the year 2000 several epidemiological studies and clinical trials were conducted. This article introduces the epidemiological studies and clinical trials conducted in Japan and the knowledge gained.

Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), a representative anionic surfactant, is well-known to induce rough skin following single or multiple topical applications. The mechanism by which SLS induces rough skin is thought to result from the disruption of skin moisture function consisting of NMF and epidermal lipids. However, a recent study demonstrated that topically applied SLS easily penetrates into the living cell layers of the epidermis, which suggests that physiological alterations of keratinocytes might cause the SLS-induced rough skin. This study was conducted to clarify the effects of SLS on keratinocytes to demonstrate the contribution of SLS to the induction of rough skin. In addition, the potentials of other widely used anionic surfactants to induce rough skin were evaluated. HaCaT keratinocytes treated with SLS had increased levels of intracellular ROS and IL-1α secretion. Application of SLS on the surface of a reconstructed epidermal equivalent also showed the increased generation of ROS. Further, SLS-treated cells showed an increase of intracellular calpain activity associated with the increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration. The increase of intracellular ROS was abolished by the addition of BAPTA-AM, a specific chelator of Ca2+. In addition, IL-1α also stimulated ROS generation by HaCaT keratinocytes. An ESR spin-labeling study demonstrated that SLS increased the fluidity of membranes of liposomes and cells. Together, those results indicate that SLS initially interacts with cell membranes, which results in the elevation of intracellular Ca2+ influx. Ca2+ stimulates the secretion of IL-1α due to the activation of calpain, and also increases ROS generation. IL-1α also stimulates ROS generation by HaCaT keratinocytes. We conclude from these results that the elevation of intracellular ROS levels is one of the causes of SLS-induced rough skin. Finally, among the other anionic surfactants tested, sodium lauryl phosphate has less potential to induce rough skin because of its lower generation of ROS.

Dietary intake of medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCTs) is known to alleviate obesity. MCTs have also been suggested to beneficially influence protein metabolism. This study evaluated the effects of dietary intake of MCTs on energy restriction-induced weight control and loss of skeletal muscle. Rats were divided into the following groups: 1) AL-LCT group that received the AIN-93G-based control diet containing long-chain triacylglycerols (LCTs) ad libitum, 2) ER-LCT group fed the control diet with 30% energy restriction, and 3) ER-MCT group fed a diet containing MCTs with 30% energy restriction. After the 4-wk dietary treatment, both energy-restricted groups had significantly lower body weight than the AL-LCT group and rats in the ER-MCT group were significantly lighter than those in the ER-LCT group. In contrast, the extent of energy restriction-induced loss of skeletal muscle was not significantly different between the two energy-restricted groups, resulting in an increase in muscle mass relative to body weight in the ER-MCT group. Despite maintaining the lower body weight, dietary intake of MCTs did not further influence signaling pathways involved in protein synthesis or breakdown. These results suggest that intake of MCTs could be a valuable dietary intervention to maintain a lower body weight and increase relative muscle mass without negative effects on skeletal muscle protein metabolism.

Residues of olive fruit (ROF) after the extraction of oils are an increasing source of industrial waste, because olive oil is becoming more popular as a healthy food. It has been reported that olives have some polyphenols that have an antioxidation capability. On the other hand, excess oxidative stress disrupts epidermal barrier function. This study was conducted to determine whether ROF could be utilized as an antioxidant source to reduce industrial wastes and to identify possible active materials to maintain healthy skin. Olive fruits are categorized into two groups depending on the time of harvest, young fruit (YF) and mature fruit (MF). Thus, we examined the antioxidant potentials of extracts from YF and from MF to remove reactive oxygen species (ROS) from biological and chemical aspects. HaCaT keratinocytes cultured with extracts of YF or MF had reduced levels of intracellular ROS in spite of the relatively low chemical capability against ROS scavenging. The biological effects of the YF extract were superior to those of the MF extract. The YF extract showed effective reductions of intracellular ROS and carbonylated proteins that were elevated by the stress-related hormone cortisol. In addition, the YF extract reinforced the intracellular antioxidation capability through the activation of Nrf2 signaling. Taken together, the YF extract was an effective source to reinforce the intracellular antioxidation capability. We conclude from these results that utilizing ROF would lead to the reduction of industrial wastes and would supply active materials to maintain healthy skin.

Recent studies have reported that dipeptidyl-peptitase IV (DPP-IV) is correlated with diabetic conditions and also with dyslipidemia caused by overnutrition, especially a high fat diet. However, the role of DPP-IV in diabetes during dyslipidemia has been unclear. We utilized a lymph fistula rat model to determine whether intestinal lymph, which absorbs dietary fats, is affected by a chronic high-fat and high-cholesterol diet (HFHC). HFHC diet rats showed significantly higher DPP-IV activity in intestinal lymph and plasma compared to rats receiving a normal chow diet. In addition, HFHC diet rats showed significantly increased DPP-IV mRNA expression in the intestine. However, DPP-IV mRNA in the lymphocytes isolated from intestinal lymph and mesenteric lymph nodes did not show significant differences from that in the normal diet rats. In conclusion, HFHC diets increased DPP-IV expression in intestinal lymph; these results indicate the applicability of a previously unrecognized role for DPP-IV in metabolic disorders, including diabetes.

The Japanese diet and the Mediterranean diet are both known to be good for health, but there had been no direct comparison of their health benefits. In this study, we compared the 1975 Japanese diet, which has been found to have high health benefits, with the 2010 Italian diet, which contributes to the longest life expectancy in Mediterranean countries. Diets were created using one-week menus of the two diets based on FAOSTAT Food Balance Sheets. The diets were prepared, freeze-dried, powdered and fed to mice for 4 weeks to examine their effects on lipid metabolism. In mice fed the Japanese diet, the visceral fat weight was lower, adipocytes were smaller, the liver weight was lower and liver TG tended to be lower than those fed the Italian diet, and little lipid accumulation was observed in hepatocytes of mice fed the Japanese diet. In addition, in mice fed the Japanese diet, the expression levels of genes related to fatty acid synthesis were lower, whereas those of genes related to catabolism of fatty acids and cholesterol were higher than those fed the Italian diet. Therefore, the Japanese diet reduced accumulation of lipids in the white adipose tissue and liver by suppressing fatty acid synthesis and promoting catabolism of fatty acids and cholesterol in the liver, compared to the Italian diet.

We performed a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study on moderately obese male and female subjects (71 subjects) with a body mass index ranging from 23 to 30 to evaluate the efficacy of 12-week intake of polyphenols extracted from apples and hop bract (600 mg/day). We confirmed that 12-week ingestion of polyphenol-containing capsules significantly decreased total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels. The effects of the apple polyphenol-containing capsules were more marked than those of the hop bract polyphenol-containing capsules. The visceral fat area and the level of adiponectin in the group administered apple polyphenols improved in comparison with the control group. Blood and physical examinations revealed on clinical problems, and no adverse reactions were observed during the ingestion period. These results demonstrate that apple polyphenols regulate fat metabolism in healthy subjects with relatively high body mass index.

Different plants are used medically and thofese therapeutic plants have great importance for healing contagious wounds. This herbal treatment is actually also a substitute of different antibiotics and having less side effects on intestinal systems of animals. The foremost concern of this study was to observe the antibacterial activity of Cinnamum zeylanicum and Acacia nilotica. Pathogenic bacteria obtained from wound samples and later identified by biochemical and molecular characterization. Methanol (an organic solvent) was used to extract Cinnamum zeylanicum and Acacia nilotica to check their antimicrobial exertion by using agar diffusion method. Different antibiotics such as, ampicillin, oflaxocin, ticarcillin and cefexime, showed their susceptibility toward antibiotics. The zone of inhibitions for antibiotic and plant extracts’ antibacterial activity were measured. Pathogenic bacteria were identified as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenesby molecular characterization. These bacteria showed susceptibility to antibiotics and also the plant extracts. Antibiotic oflaxocin showed maximum activity against these two pathogens (12.25 ± 0.44 and 12.375 ± 0.47) while antibiotic cefixime showed minimum effect (1.25 ± 0.28 and 0.625 ± 0.25). Plant extracts showed significant antibacterial activity with maximum activity (14 ± 0.9 by Acacia nilotica and 12 ± 0.5 by Cinnamum zeylanicum) in 100% solution. It can be concluded thatmethanolic extract of traditional therapeutic plants proved to be a promising source of antimicrobial agents against antibiotic resistant bacteria. Cinnamum zeylanicum and Acacia nilotica were observed to be competent as antibacterial tool against pathogenic bacterial strains.

Organogels are attractive formulations in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals. They exhibit characteristic frictional and mechanical responses during the collapse of a mesostructure. In this study, the friction dynamics of organogels composed of five different waxes (paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax, ceresin, candelilla wax, and carnauba wax) and liquid paraffin were evaluated using a sinusoidal motion friction evaluation system. All organogels exhibited a velocity dependence of friction coefficient that increased with the acceleration of the contact probe. Depending on the ease of the crystal formation of the waxes in liquid paraffin, hydrocarbon-based waxes formed soft organogels with a low-friction coefficient, whereas ester-based, highly polar waxes formed organogels that were hard and had a high-friction coefficient.
