The experimental results showed that Rhodiola rosea extract had significant tyrosinase inhibition. When the liquid integral number of Rhodiola rosea was 0.1%, 0.5%, 1% and 5%, the tyrosinase inhibition rate was 15%. 48%, 57% and 72% showed a certain dose-effect relationship within the range of the tested volume fraction, showing a good tyrosinase inhibition. The tyrosinase inhibitory effect of Rhodiola rosea extract having a volume fraction of 5% was equivalent to the level of kojic acid compared to the positive control kojic acid.

As a high-quality natural plant and Chinese herbal medicine resource, Rhodiola rosea has a significant inhibitory effect on mushroom tyrosine in vitro, which can reduce the formation of melanin in the skin and whiten the complexion.

 

2. The Effect of Rhodiola Rosea Extract on DPPH Free Radical Scavenging Activity

It has been reported that some antioxidants such as green tea can effectively inhibit oxidative stress and prevent disease and aging. ROS from oxidative stress are affected by environmental factors such as UV radiation, smoking, pollution, ozone and certain drugs, chemicals or pesticides.

In this experiment, the antioxidant activity of compounds or plant extracts was measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Rhodiola rosea extract was treated differently. The scavenging activity of DPPH free radicals under the test volume fraction is as follows

Rhodiola rose 2 

The DPPH free radical scavenging rate characterizes the antioxidant activity of the test sample. In general, the higher the DPPH free radical scavenging rate, the stronger the antioxidant activity. Rhodiola rosea extract has strong anti-oxidation and scavenging harmful free radicals. When the volume fraction is 0.125% and 0.25%, the DPPH free radical scavenging rate of Rhodiola rosea extract reaches 71% and 86%. A certain dose-effect relationship is presented within the range of test volume fractions. This indicates that Rhodiola rosea extract has better anti-oxidation and oxidative stress damage protection, and achieves the effects of preventing diseases and anti-aging. 

  

3.Cytotoxicity of Rhodiola Rosea Extract   

The cytotoxic effects of Rhodiola rosea extract (extract and extract powder) were evaluated by HaCat cells and 1079SK cells. The results are shown in Figure 3.

Fig. 3 Cy totoxic effect of Rhodiola crenulata extract in HaCat and 1079SK cellsThe results showed that when the liquid integral number of Rhodiola rosea was 4% and 2%, it had a very significant cytotoxic effect on HaCat cells, and the cell viability was significantly reduced. The morphology of the cells was observed by inverted microscope, and the death of HaCat cells was obvious. When the mass concentration of the powder reached 1 g/L, it had no cytotoxic effect on 1079SK cells. Therefore, the test concentration of the Rhodiola extract applied to the cytological efficacy evaluation extract and the extracted powder of the cosmetic is selected to be equal to or lower than 1% and 1 g/L.    

 

4.Inhibition of Melanin Melanin by Rhodiola Rosea Extract

The results are shown in Fig. 4. The effect of Rhodiola rosea extract on melanin production in mouse B16 melanoma cells was observed under an inverted microscope. Rhodiola rosea extract significantly reduced IBMX-induced B16 melanoma in mice at 1% tested concentration. Cell melanin production, while its melanin content is significantly lower than the IBMX induced melanin content.

 

Ef fect of Rhodiola crenulata extract on melanogenesis in G361 melanoma cells 

 

The results are shown in Fig. 5. Rhodiola rosea extract can significantly reduce the production of melanin in human G361 melanoma cells induced by IBMX at a concentration of 0.5 g/L. The inverted microscope and the melanin content test indicate that the Rhodiola The extract of the sky has a good effect of inhibiting melanin production, and the melanin content secreted by the cells is remarkably reduced.

Chinese herbal extracts have been reported to inhibit the production of melanin by melanocytes induced by IBMX, such as scorpion . The test showed that Rhodiola rosea extract had better tyrosinase inhibition, and the melanoma cell model test also showed that it had better inhibition of melanin production of melanin, indicating that red Sedum extract has the effect of inhibiting melanin and whitening in vitro by tyrosinase and cell water, and has high application value.

 

5 Anti-aging Effect of Rhodiola Rosea Extract on Fibroblasts
