Abstract: The present invention relates to the novel use of panduratin derivatives or an extract of Boesenbergia pandurata for enhancing muscle mass growth, fighting fatigue and enhancing exercise performance, and more particularly to a composition for promoting an increase in muscles, anti-fatigue composition and a composition for enhancing muscle mass growth and recovery from fatigue to improve exercise performance, the composition comprising a panduratin derivative or a salt thereof or an extract of Boesenbergia pandurata as an active ingredient, and to a method for enhancing muscle mass growth, of treating or preventing fatigue syndrome and enhancing exercise performance, the method comprising a panduratin derivative or a salt thereof or a extract of Boesenbergia pandurata to a subject in need thereof.
Abstract: The present invention relates to the novel use of panduratin derivatives or an extract of Boesenbergia pandurata for enhancing muscle mass growth, fighting fatigue and enhancing exercise performance. A panduratin derivative or a salt thereof or an extract of Boesenbergia pandurata of the present invention may be used without side effect and has the effect of increasing the expression of PPAR-? in muscles to increase muscle mass, promoting recovery from fatigue and increase mobility, thereby improving exercise performance.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a new use of lignan-type compounds or an extract of nutmeg or aril of nutmeg comprising the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a composition for skin whitening comprising a lignan-type compound or an extract of nutmeg or aril of nutmeg comprising the same. Because the lignan compound represented by Chemical Formulas 1 to 3 or the extract of nutmeg or aril of nutmeg has superior skin whitening activity by inhibiting melanin production and tyrosinase activity, it can be used for the preparation of a cosmetic composition, food composition or pharmaceutical composition for skin whitening.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel use of lignan compounds, which are isolated and purified from nutmeg or the aril of nutmeg for anti-wrinkle, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a novel use for anti-wrinkle of an extract of the nutmeg or an extract of the aril of the nutmeg, fragrin A, austobailignan 7, licarin E, and macelignan. The extracts and lignan compounds of the present invention have activities in suppressing collagen degradation enzyme-1 (MMP-I, matrix metalloprotei-nase-1) and formation of new collagen (type-1 procollagen), thereby having effect on inhibitng wrinkle caused by photoaging. Accordingly, the extracts and lignan compounds of the present invention may be useful for preventing or treating wrinkle caused by photoaging.
