Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition for treating respiratory diseases due to particulate matter, wherein the composition contains, as active ingredients, essential oil extracts of mint, Asarum sieboldi, and fir leaves. A composite obtained by mixing essential oil extracts of mint, Asarum sieboldi, and fir leaves according to the present invention exhibits the effect of relieving the symptoms of chronic respiratory diseases caused by ovalbumin and particulate matter in an animal model, and thus can be effectively used to directly treat respiratory diseases due to particulate matter.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition for body fat reduction containing extracts of Taraxacum platycarpum and Lonicerae japonica as active ingredients. It has been confirmed that a mixed extract of Taraxacum platycarpum and Lonicerae japonica according to the present invention reduces body weight and body fat when administered to mice with obesity induced by a high-fat diet. Also, it has been confirmed that the mixed extract reduces the size of fat tissue, reduces fat vacuoles in liver tissue, reduces total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL-cholesterol in the blood, and increases HDL-cholesterol. Furthermore, it has been confirmed that the mixed extract suppresses the expression of PPAR-γ which is related to fat synthesis. In addition, it has been confirmed that the mixed extract has a synergistic effect on the regulation of intracellular fat accumulation and fat metabolism factors in cells in which fat accumulation is induced.

Abstract

Morus alba LMagnolia officinalis Magnolia officinalis bark, according to the present invention, was topically administered to an animal model with fat accumulation induced by a high-fat diet, the size and weight of adipose tissue in the local area to which the extract was administered were decreased. It was also confirmed that the size of adipocytes in the adipose tissue was reduced, from which it was confirmed that the extract can be used as a composition for local lipolysis.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition for dissolving fat, comprising, as an active ingredient, a complex extract of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge, Taraxacum platycarpum H. Dahlstedt, and Pinellia ternata Breitenbach, and can be used usefully for removing fat in a localized area, as the complex extract, if administered to the localized area in the form of an injection, can reduce expression of a fat-generating factor, increase expression of a fat-dissolving factor, and reduce expression of a glyconeogenesis factor in a local fat tissue and, thereby, has the effects of reducing the size of a fat cell in the local fat tissue and reducing the amount of local fat.
