The application discloses
oleanane triterpene saponin compounds with improved mitochondrial energy anti-aging, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of medicines and
cosmetics. Through systematic chemical component research on Zhejiang Hongshan tea flowers, two new
oleanane triterpene saponin compounds CK and CL are separated, and the chemical structures are determined by using high-
resolution mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic technology. In-vitro anti-
photoaging activity research shows that the new compounds CK and CL provided in the application have good protection effects on
ultraviolet-induced
fibroblast photoaging, can significantly improve the content of
type I collagen, reduce the expression of matrix metalloproteinases mmp1 and mmp3 , increase the generation of mitochondrial autophagosomes and lysosomes, promote mitochondrial
autophagy, relieve mitochondrial damage and improve
cell senescence. The preparation method provided in the application is simple, and the activity is significant, so that the application is expected to be developed into a new anti-
skin aging
medicine or cosmetic.
