Abstract

The genus Vaccinium is represented by shrubs growing in a temperate climate that have been used for ages as traditional remedies in the treatment of digestive problems, in diabetes, renal stones or as antiseptics due to the presence of polyphenols (anthocyanins, flavonoids and tannins) in their fruits and leaves. Recent studies confirm their marked potential in the treatment of skin disorders and as skin care cosmetics. The aim of this review is to present the role of Vaccinium spp. as cosmetic products, highlight their potential and prove the biological properties exerted by the extracts from different species that can be useful for the preparation of innovative cosmetics. In the manuscript both skin care and therapeutic applications of the representatives of this gender will be discussed that include the antioxidant, skin lightening, UV-protective, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and chemopreventive properties to shed new light on these underestimated plants.

越橘--尚未开发的药用化妆品活性成分来源

蔓越橘属是生长在温带气候中的灌木，由于其果实和叶子中含有多酚（花青素、类黄酮和单宁酸），这些灌木历来被用作治疗消化系统疾病、糖尿病、肾结石或防腐剂的传统疗法。最近的研究证实，它们在治疗皮肤疾病和作为护肤化妆品方面具有显著的潜力。本综述旨在介绍越橘属植物作为化妆品的作用，突出它们的潜力，并证明不同种类的提取物所具有的生物特性，可用于制备创新化妆品。手稿中将讨论这一性别的代表植物在皮肤护理和治疗方面的应用，包括抗氧化、美白、紫外线防护、抗菌、消炎和化学预防等特性，从而为这些被低估的植物带来新的启示。

期刊介绍： Biomolecules (ISSN 2218-273X) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal focusing on biogenic substances and their biological functions, structures, interactions with other molecules, and their microenvironment as well as biological systems. Biomolecules publishes reviews, regular research papers and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
