This invention belongs to the field of daily
chemical products and discloses a
polysaccharide composition that improves
skin immunity and strengthens the
skin barrier function, as well as its applications. The
polysaccharide composition includes
Scutellaria baicalensis
polysaccharide,
Adenophora stricta polysaccharide, and
Trametes versicolor polysaccharide. Through the synergistic effect of these three polysaccharides, it can not only reduce the number of mast cells but also increase
antimicrobial peptides and
filaggrin; increase
filaggrin; and decrease
monocyte chemotactic
protein-1 and
interleukin-6, thereby achieving the effects of improving
skin immunity, anti-inflammatory and whitening. Furthermore, it can act as a signaling molecule, widely participating in physiological processes such as intercellular ligand-
receptor recognition and intercellular
signal transduction, reducing the average relative amplification fold of
interleukin-6 expression factor mRNA, and effectively participating in epidermal
cell differentiation and
skin barrier formation, thus strengthening the
skin barrier function; it can be used in the preparation of
cosmetics.
