Effect of extract on anti-inflammatory by inhibition of and cytokine levels.

Chronic inflammation is persistent disease caused by unregulated activation of pathway and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, induced by accumulation of reactive oxygen species above thresholds. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anti-oxidant, anti-lipidemia, inhibition pathway, and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine activities of extract (IDE) to demonstrate its inhibitory ability against chronic inflammatory in RAW264.7.

Development of Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction to Produce Skin-Whitening and Anti-Wrinkle Substances from Safflower Seed.

In this study, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was applied to extract bioactive substances with skin-whitening, anti-wrinkle, and antioxidant effects from safflower seeds, and the extraction conditions were optimized by a central composite design. The independent variables, including extraction time (5.0~55.
