Description
Method for extracting low molecular collagen using pollack skin, low molecular collagen, and cosmetic composition having skin regeneration efficacy comprising same The present invention relates to a method for extracting low molecular weight collagen using pollack skin, low molecular weight collagen, and a cosmetic composition having skin regeneration efficacy containing the same. As environmental pollution resulting from modern industrialization, as well as fine dust and ultraviolet rays in the atmosphere, have undesirable effects on the skin of modern people, leading to skin roughness and accelerated skin aging, there is a growing demand for preventing dryness and skin roughness by blocking moisture evaporation and maintaining skin moisture for a long time, as well as for improving wrinkles caused by photoaging. The skin is the outermost organ of the human body and serves as a barrier protecting our body from harmful external substances such as microorganisms, irritants, and pollutants. The skin is composed of the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous fat layer. The epidermis is divided into the stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale according to the keratinization process. Most of the cells composing the epidermis are keratinocytes, which form the skin barrier by synthesizing proteins such as transglutaminase-1 and filaggrin, and also participate in skin moisturization by synthesizing hyaluronic acid synthase (HAS), which produces hyaluronic acid, and aquaporin-3, which is involved in the movement of water and glycerol (Jiwon H, et al., 2021). Therefore, strengthening the skin barrier can be considered an essential requirement for skin health. The skin is broadly divided into three layers in order from the outside: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous adipose tissue. It functions to protect the human body from physical and chemical stimuli from the external environment. In particular, the skin regulates the evaporation of approximately 65–70% of the body's water. Among these, the epidermis is divided from the outside in the order of the stratum corneum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale. The stratum corneum of the epidermis contains about 10–20% water and is located at the outermost layer of the body, inhibiting water evaporation from the body while blocking the excessive penetration of substances from the outside (J. Invest. Dermatol. 80(Suppl.), 44-49. 1983). The cells constituting this stratum corneum contain high concentrations of Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), a water-soluble component, which not only helps the skin exhibit flexibility but also helps maintain adequate moisture (J. Invest. Dermatol. 54, 24-31, 1970). However, due to causes such as environmental changes, changes in lifestyle patterns, various stresses and environmental pollution arising from social life, frequent washing due to makeup habits, and natural skin aging due to increasing age, the moisture in the stratum corneum decreases, causing the skin to become dry, rough on the surface, and lose its luster, appearing dull. Consequently, the importance of skin moisturization is growing. Recently, among the factors for skin health, natural moisturization, anti-aging, skin regeneration, and elasticity improvement are important, along with strengthening the skin barrier. In particular, collagen, which is essential for skin regeneration and elasticity improvement, is an abundant fibrous structural protein of animal origin that accounts for 30% of the total protein in vertebrates and invertebrates. It forms a triple helix structure and plays a role in forming most of the organic matter in the skin, bones, and teeth in various forms, with particularly high content in bones and skin (dermis). The basic unit of collagen is troprocollagen, which possesses physical or biological stability through intramolecular or intermolecular covalent cross-linking. While the amino acid composition of collagen varies slightly depending on the type, glycine typically accounts for about one-third of the total, proline for one-fourth, and hydroxyproline for one-seventh. Hydroxyproline, an amino acid constituting collagen, forms a specific ratio (12.5–14%) along with hydroxylysine, serving as an indicator component for quantifying collagen; it is known that the composition ratio of collagen varies depending on the species and age of the organism. Regarding research on collagen derived from marine products, many studies have been reported on collagen extracted from the connective tissues and skin of vertebrates and invertebrates such as starfish, squid, jellyfish, and skates. Various studies on these fish collagens, including extraction conditions and physicochemical properties, have been reported using species such as the Japanese sea bream ( Lutjanus lutjanus ) (Kittiphattanabawon et al. 2005), sea bass ( Lates niloticus ) (Muyonga et al. 2004), yellowfin tuna ( Thunnus albacares ) (
