Gamma Oryzanol, a term used for a group of ferulic acid-based molecules such as 4-4'dimethylsterol or 4-desmethylsterol esterified with ferulic acid.

The gamma oryzanols comprise:

• Cycloartenol and cycloartenyl ferulate (the most important ingredient)
• Beta-sitosterol (found in many plants)
• 24-methylenecycloartanol
• Campesterol

Characteristics

Cosmetic properties of gamma oryzanol

Gamma oryzanol is a powerful antioxidant that has a wide range of biological activity: it has an anti-inflammatory effect, thanks to which it is added to anti-aging cosmetics and products designed for dry skin. The ingredient is added to the cosmetics of spa products, as the natural antioxidant fights harmful radicals and prolongs the youthfulness of the skin, making it firm, dense and healthy. Gamma oryzanol increases the stability of oils, which are structurally susceptible to oxidative processes due to the presence of fatty acids in the composition. γ-oryzanol dissolves in hot oils, so it is quickly absorbed into the deep layers of the skin and stimulates blood flow, nourishes the dermis and fills it with vitamins and minerals.

The component is a powerful defense against early aging and mechanical damage to the skin. The main feature of the product is considered to be the extinguishing of singlet oxygen, so that the upper layers of the skin are protected from lipid oxidation after exposure to ultraviolet rays. Gamma Oryzanol whitens the skin. Recent studies have shown that the substance inhibits tyrosinase activity and melanin production, thus eliminating age spots and improving the overall appearance of the skin.
Gamma-oryzanol has a natural UVA/UVB absorption factor. This is the so-called secondary protection. Gamma oryzanol plays a protective role in UV-induced lipid reoxidation. The figure below, shows the UV absorption capacity of 1 mg of gamma oryzanol dissolved in 100 ml of n-heptane. According to these results, the UV absorption coefficient was measured: the SPF of the cream with gamma-oryzanol (1%) corresponds to 1.7.

Gamma-oryzanol has a pro-inflammatory effect. Topical application of gamma oryzanol:

• reduces UV-induced erythema
• Inhibits lipoxygenase activity
• Inhibits the activity of cyclooxygenase 2

Component stimulates and stabilizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands of the skin. Adding 1% Gamma Orizanol to a cosmetic product eliminates excessive dryness of the skin and helps to cope with dermatitis. Most often the component is used for the purpose of caring for fading and dry skin, which is affected by dermatitis and signs of aging.

• Prevention of tissue damage that can occur under the influence of harmful radicals.
• Effective absorption of ultraviolet rays.
• Preventing skin aging and lightening age spots.

Component Gamma oryzanol stimulates rapid skin healing after mechanical damage, prevents the appearance of fine lines and improves skin elasticity. The product has an anti-inflammatory effect and retains moisture in the deep layers of the skin. The component increases cell metabolism, resulting in easier exfoliation of keratinized elements of the dermis.
