Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract GenemClockTM

The albizia julibrissin is commonly referred to as the silk tree because of its beautiful silk thread-like stamen. The leaves of the tree close at night and open in the morning̶, so it named “Nemunoki”, or “Sleeping tree”in Japanese.
Because of its distinctive “body clock,” the bark of the tree has long been used as a natural remedy for insomnia, which can be caused by disrupted biological rhythm.
Modern life is stressful. When our body clock is disrupted, our skin’s anti-oxidation systems, barrier functions, and regenerative capabilities degenerate, causing blotches, redness, and dull skin.

The skin has its own biological clock which controls the timing of various skin-related gene expressions, enabling the skin to “protect” during the day and “recover” at night. We believed that activating these genes would lead to healthier skin.


Abnormalities arise in clock gene bmal rhythms when epidermal keratinocyte suffers from oxidative stress.
GenemClockTM supplementation showed that abnormalities in bmal rhythms can be normalized.


When GenemClockTM is applied to UV-irradiated skin, some testers were confirmed to have the effect of suppressing skin redness.

12 healthy men and women in their 20-30s (average age of 33.8)
May 29th - June 6th, 2019 (9 days)
| Not applied | Applied | |
|---|---|---|
| Erythema degree index one day after irradiation( Δa* value change) | 4.9 | 4.03 |
Δa* value change = a* value (one day after irradiation)-a* value (before irradiation)
Δa* value change = a* value (one day after irradiation)-a* value (before irradiation)

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) cause dull skin with age. Although keeping a solution of BSA (protein) and glucose at 45℃ for 10 days produces glycation indicating carbonyl groups, we observed an inhibiting effect with GenemClockTM
