Abstract EN

Thermal skin aging refers to skin aging induced by heat shock treatment.

Apple mint (Mentha suaveolens Ehrh.) has been used as a folk medicine to treat various diseases.

However, the activity of apple mint in thermal skin aging has yet to be investigated.

In this study, we conducted various biological assays to demonstrate the anti-thermal skin aging activity of extracts of apple mint leaves (ALE).

As a result, ALE showed significant antioxidant activities and inhibited the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and interleukin-8 (IL-8) as well as suppressed mitogen-activated proteins kinases (MAPKs) such as extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERK), c-Jun N terminal kinases (JNK), and p38 MAPK triggered by heat shock treatment in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs).

Consequently, ALE could be used as attractive cosmetic materials with anti-thermal skin aging activity.
