ENDOTHELIN-1 mRNA EXPRESSION INCREASE INHIBITOR, BASIC FIBROBLAST CELL PROLIFERATION FACTOR mRNA EXPRESSION INCREASE INHIBITOR AND PRO-OPIOMELANOCORTIN mRNA EXPRESSION INCREASE INHIBITOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To find out a substance having an endothelin-1 mRNA expression increase inhibiting action, a bFGF mRNA expression increase inhibiting action or a POMC mRNA expression increase inhibiting action and to provide an endothelin-1 mRNA expression increase inhibitor, a bFGF mRNA expression increase inhibitor and a POMC mRNA expression increase inhibitor containing the substance as an active component.;SOLUTION: The endothelin-1 mRNA expression increase inhibitor and the POMC mRNA expression increase inhibitor contain an extract of one or more vegetables selected from Averrhoa carambola, Rubus ellipticus and leaf of Glychyrrhiza glabra as an active component. The bFGF mRNA expression increase inhibitor contains an extract of Rubus ellipticus as an active component.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
