The present invention relates to a herbal composition for skin protection and skin disease improvement, and more specifically, as an active ingredient, Angelica, Cheongung, Saengjihwang, Shou, Astragalus, Licorice, Giltyeong, Pogongyoung, Baekjak, Baekchul, Brown root, Mint, Sign Allergic skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis, containing water extracts or dried powders thereof, which are mixed with water, dermis, silk radish and dry rate (dried balm) and then extracted with water or mixed with water, and psoriasis, eczema, acne The present invention relates to a composition for improving skin wrinkles and the like caused by aging and the like, as well as to dermatitis diseases.

The skin of the human body is an indispensable organ for the maintenance of life, which physically and chemically protects the body from extraterrestrial and performs the biochemical functions necessary for metabolism of the whole body. All abnormalities that appear on the skin, including human hair, hands and toenails, are called skin diseases, or skin diseases. Since the skin covers the surface of the body, there are many opportunities for direct contact with stimuli or various pathogens from the outside, and are greatly affected by the body. In addition, even minor changes of the skin can be seen by eye and touched by hand, and it is easy to perform pathological histological examination and examination of microorganisms by taking a part of the lesion, and to easily diagnose the diagnosis of individual diseases. The type is considerably larger than that of other organs, and the disease name is complicated. Relatively common skin diseases include atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, urticaria, athlete's foot, psoriasis, psoriasis, herpes simplex, shingles, dry skin, housewives and acne.

Inner skin diseases include gastrointestinal disorders, liver disease, kidney disease, metabolic disorders, blood diseases, visceral tumors, and endocrine disorders.Inners such as friction, pressure, and bruises act on the skin directly from the outside world. In addition to stimulation, animal, vegetable, mineral poisons, other drugs, radiation, heat, cold, microorganisms such as bacteria, filamentous fungi, protozoa, virus, and skin parasites. In addition, hereditary skin diseases and birthmarks and birthmarks are caused by genes and are included in endogenous skin diseases.

Among skin diseases, especially atopic dermatitis is a disease caused by an allergic reaction. The allergic reaction is divided into early specific immune response and late inflammatory response. Most allergic reactions occur through mast cells and are activated through high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRI) on the cell membrane. When the IgE antibody bound to the IgE receptor forms a bridge by the antigen, histamine and chondroitin sulfate stored in the granules through the action of phospholipase C, protein kinase C and calcium ions Heparin, protease and the like are released to mediate the initial stages of the reaction. Chemical transporters, including histamines, are the causative agents of various clinical symptoms seen early in the allergic reaction, with histamines accounting for the largest amount. Therefore, the action by histamine in the allergic reaction is important, the symptoms include vasodilation, edema. Prostaglandin and platelet-activating factor are also known chemical transporters for allergic reactions. Symptoms resulting from the action of a chemical delivery agent may include skin symptoms such as dimples, pruritis, and skin redness.

Currently, the number of patients with skin problems and skin diseases continues to increase due to environmental pollution, dietary habits and genetic causes. In the United States, 5-12% of the population suffers from skin diseases, and in Korea, there are about 2 to 3 million skin disease patients. Nevertheless, most of the steroids that have serious side effects are presently used as therapeutic agents or ameliorators. Recently, immunosuppressive agents have been developed, but there are no special therapeutic agents or ameliorators that have cured effects without concern for side effects. . Although the global market for these skin disease treatments is worth US $ 1.3 billion, it is accompanied by side effects such as decreased immune function, skin atrophy, disruption of children, expansion of capillaries, acne and adrenal cortex, Can not be done. In addition, there are known examples of the development of anti-inflammatory or skin disease, such as the active ingredient extracted from the known herbal medicines for the treatment of skin diseases, but mostly to relieve itching and inflammation, but does not cure the disease.

On the other hand, due to aging of the cells, physiological natural phenomena, skin cells, which are the basic units that make up the skin, are not normally divided, and the regeneration period is gradually longer, and the skin loses its elasticity. It starts to occur. Currently, surgery or ointment and vitamin C therapy are used to repair skin wrinkles due to aging, but it is not enough to maintain a firm and elastic skin, which is a long-time desire of human beings. In addition, skin anti-aging and skin improver using natural products such as fruit acid or kimchi extract have been developed for many years, but it only functions as skin improver by inhibiting androgen, a male hormone, and increasing sebum secretion. There is no effect as a therapeutic agent for skin diseases.

In recent years, so-called "medical skin care", which combines medical treatment and skin care, has been greatly developed for skin treatment not only in Korea, but also in the United States, Europe and Japan. However, it only improves the appearance of acne, blemishes, freckles, etc. It is unclear for allergic skin diseases, diseases caused by reduced immune function and aging.

Meanwhile, interferon-γ secreted by immune cells plays an important role in increasing immunomodulatory capacity through antigen-specific and nonspecific immune responses in monocytes and macrophages. Decreased interferon-γ secretion exacerbates atopic symptoms due to increased IgE production or reduced antigenic clearance. Interferon-γ also acts on T lymphocytes to enhance their differentiation and maturation. It also promotes the differentiation of Th1 lymphocytes in CD4 T lymphocytes and inhibits the proliferation of Th2 lymphocytes. This effect is mediated by activating monocytes to secrete IL-12 and activating T lymphocytes to express functional IL-12 receptors.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of a product that can maintain the young skin through the improvement of immune function by the production of interferon-γ in the human body and fundamentally improve skin diseases such as allergy by regulating histamine production.

The present inventors conducted a continuous study to solve the problems of conventional skin diseases, including skin problems, and at the same time to develop a composition that does not have side effects such as decreased immune function, renal function, abnormal hormone secretion. As a result, it was confirmed that there is an effect to improve the skin disease as well as to regulate the immune function when used by mixing a single substance excellent in the conventional allergic reaction and completed the present invention.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a composition and a method for producing the same that fundamentally treat the cause of skin problems by regulating human immune function, rather than simply improving or temporarily treating the skin.
