Abstract: The present invention relates to a skin anti-aging composition containing Irilin B (5,7,2?-trihydroxy-6-methoxyisoflavone) or a salt thereof, wherein Irilin B isolated from Salicornia spp. may be used itself or in the form of a salt thereof, and shows effects of enhancing skin elasticity, preventing and reducing wrinkles, or maintaining skin moisturization. The skin anti-aging composition of the present invention can be prepared in various forms, such as a cosmetic composition, a food composition, a feed composition, or a pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an acanthoside B compound as an effective ingredient for preventing or treating dementia or for improving a cognitive function. In the present invention, a desalted glasswort extract, and acanthoside B, which is isolated from the extract and acts as an effective ingredient inhibitory of acetylcholine esterase, were found to have an excellent neuroprotective activity through the inhibition of neuroinflammation and to improve memory retention and remarkably enhance spatial cognitive ability as measured by passive avoidance test and Y-maze test in a scopolamine-induced amnesic animal model. The acanthoside B or glasswort extract of the present invention can be applied to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating dementia, a pharmaceutical composition for improving a cognitive function, or a health functional food or feed for improving memory retention and cognitive function.

Abstract: Disclosed are a functionally reinforced desalted nutritional composition, a desalted extract and a cold-water-extracted salt substitute, which are derived from halophytes that grow in coastal regions under highly saline conditions and thus retain high salt concentrations, as well as the use of the desalted nutritional composition for combating obesity.

Abstract: A compound having antihypertensive activity, especially 5-deoxy-irilin B having angiotensin-I-converting enzyme inhibition activity, derived from Salicornia SPP., a salty sauce containing the same, and a composition for the prevention and treatment of hypertension containing the same are provided. The Salicornia SPP.-derived salty sauce having superior sensory and functional properties can be produced through cutting or grinding and then hydrolyzing of Salicornia SPP.
