Abstract: There are provided a promoter containing ginsenoside compound K for the production of hyaluronic acid, and more particularly, a new efficacy of 20-O-?-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxadiol (compound K), a chief metabolite of ginseng saponin, to increase the expression of hyaluronic acid synthase gene in human cell and thereby to promote the production of hyaluronic acid, and an anti-aging agent containing the promoter for the production of hyaluronic acid as an effective ingredient.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composition for promoting a production of hyaluronic acid containing at least one of kaempferol and quercetin. Kaempferol and quercetin of the invention increase an expression of a hyaluronic acid synthase (HAS) gene existing in a skin cell line of human epidermis, thereby promoting a production of hyaluronic acid in the human cell. Accordingly, the composition containing at least one of kaempferol and quercetin according to the invention can be usefully used as a cosmetic composition for increasing skin elasticity and preventing skin dryness or aging, or a pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing a degenerative arthritis.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a whitening cosmetic composition containing plant-derived ginsenoside Fl (20-O-?-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxatriol) as an active ingredient. More specifically, the ginsenoside Fl is obtained from particularly a ginseng extract using an acid, a base, an enzyme or microorganism, and a whitening cosmetic composition containing the ginsenoside Fl has an excellent effect of inhibiting melanin biosynthesis, and thus provides an excellent skin whitening effect.
