A blank control group and a test sample group were set up. The blank control group was added with an equal volume of cell culture medium, and the test sample group was added with 120 μg / mL of each test sample. Then, the cells were incubated for another 24 h in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. RNA was extracted according to the operation instructions of the cell RNA extraction kit, and reverse transcription was performed into cDNA using a reverse transcription kit. Finally, the mRNA expression of barrier repair-related factors filaggrin (FLG) and loricrin (LOR) was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. The activation rate was calculated according to the formula: activation rate (%) = ((relative expression of the sample group - relative expression of the blank control group) / relative expression of the blank control group) × 100%. The mRNA primer sequences were as follows:

[0129] Test Example 4

[0130] (1) Preparation of the sample to be tested:

[0131] The extracts of *Ottelia acuminata* obtained in Preparation Examples 1-9 and Comparative Preparation Examples 1-6 were used to prepare a 120 μg / mL sample solution using cell culture medium as a solvent.

[0132] (2) SZ95 human sebaceous gland cells were used as the research object, at a concentration of 1×10 5 SZ95 cells were seeded into 24-well plates at a seeding density of cells / well and incubated overnight in an incubator (37℃, 5% CO2). When the cell deposition rate in the 24-well plates reached 40-60%, the culture medium was discarded, and the cells were divided into groups: the blank group was cultured with cell culture medium only, the model group was supplemented with 1 μM 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the positive control group was supplemented with 1 μM DHT and 3 μg / mL isotretinoin, and the sample group was supplemented with 1 μM DHT and 120 μg / mL of the sample to be tested. The cells were incubated for another 24 h in an incubator (37℃, 5% CO2). The culture medium was discarded, and the cells were rinsed with PBS. After fixation, Nile red staining was added for 15 min, and after rinsing, the fluorescence intensity was recorded using a fluorescence microscope. The fluorescence intensity was quantitatively analyzed using Image Pro Plus software. The lipid inhibition rate (%) = ((fluorescence value of model group - fluorescence value of sample group) / fluorescence value of model group) × 100%. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0134]

[0135] As shown in Table 4, the extract of *Ottelia acuminata* prepared by the method of this invention has excellent effect in inhibiting the secretion of sebum by sebaceous gland cells, that is, excellent oil control potential.

[0136] The data from Preparation Example 1 and Comparative Preparation Example 1 show that the alcohol extraction method used in this invention, compared with water extraction, can make the extracted product have better oil control potential.

[0137] The data from Preparation Example 1 and Comparative Preparation Example 2 show that the membrane filtration performed before resin elution in this invention can ensure that the extracted product has better oil control potential.

[0138] As can be seen from the data results of Preparation Example 1 and Comparative Preparation Examples 3-4, the resin elution treatment after extraction and the decolorizing agent treatment after resin elution in this invention can ensure that the extracted product has better oil control potential.

[0139] As can be seen from the data results of Preparation Example 1 and Comparative Preparation Examples 5-6, when the present invention performs macroporous resin elution, collecting and combining the water washing liquid and alcohol washing liquid as the basis for subsequent decolorization can ensure that the extracted product has better oil control potential.
