真珠や真珠貝が他の貝とは異なり美しい輝きを有するのは、このたんぱく質の含有量の違いによるためです。真珠のコンキオリンは17種類のアミノ酸から成り、抗酸化作用・細胞活性作用・保湿作用などの生理活性があるといわれています。美容成分として化粧品にも利用されています。抗酸化作用…老化の原因として、活性酸素が関与することが解明されてきています。体内では活性酸素を除去する抗酸化酵素(SOD)が生成されますが、加齢と共にその働きは弱まり、過酸化脂質などの有害物質が蓄積され老化が促進されます

It's to depend on difference in the contents of this protein it's different from other shellfishes in a pearl and a pearl shell, and to possess a beautiful blaze.
Pearl Conchiolin consists of 17 kinds of amino acid, and is said for there to be physiology activities, such as an anti-oxidization action, a cell activity action, and a moisturing action.　It is used also for cosmetics as a cosmetics ingredient. Anti-oxidization action -- It has been solved as a cause of aging that an oxygen radical involves.　Antioxidant enzyme (SOD) removing active oxygen is generated in the body, but the work weakens with aging, and the toxic substances such as lipid peroxides are accumulated, and aging is promoted.

The reason why pearls and pearl shells emit more beautiful luminance than the other seashells do is the content of this protein in pearls and the other varies. Conchiolin contained in pearls consists of 17 kinds of amino acid, and it is said that it benefits biological activity such as antioxidation effect, cell activation effect and moisturizing effect. It is also used for cosmetic products as a beauty component. Antioxidation effect: It is made clear that, as one of the reason for aging, active oxgen is involved. In your body, antioxidant enzyme (SOD) is formed in order to remove active oxygen when you are young, however the function weakens as you age, and your body accumulates hazardous substances such as peroxidized fat, to accelerate aging.

Translation / English

A reason of a pearl or a peal oyster has more brilliancy thant the other shells, is a difference of protain content. Conchiolin of pearl consisting of 17 kainds of Amino acid, and those may have bioactivities like antioxidant, activate cell, and moisturizing. Those are used for cosmetic products as beauty component. Antioxidant...It is revealing that reactive oxgen species participate in aging. Superoxido dismutase(SOD) that remove antioxidant is created in the body, but this effect decrease by aging, and accumulate a toxic substance like malindialdehyde and give a boost to aging.

細胞活性作用…加齢により細胞が分裂増殖し生まれ変わる機能は低下します。細胞の分裂増殖する機能を助けることは、若々しさの維持が期待できます。保湿作用…真珠コンキオリンのアミノ酸組成はグリシンが特異的に多く、次いでアラニンが多く含まれます。この構成は皮膚の保湿成分であるコラーゲンのアミノ酸組成に似ています。また皮膚の角質層に存在するＮＭＦ（天然保湿因子）はアミノ酸を豊富に含み皮膚のうるおい（水分保持）を保っています。真珠コンキオリンはＮＭＦsの働きを助け、保湿作用を有しています

Translation / English

Cell activity action…A function a cell is divided by aging and multiplies, and to be rebeared deteriorates.　Helping the function in which a cell carries out division multiplication can expect maintenance of youthfulness.　Moisturing action -- The amino acid composition of pearl Conchiolin has much Grishin specifically, and, subsequently many Alanine is contained.　This constitution resembles amino acid composition of the collagen which is a humidity retention ingredient of the skin.
And, NMF (natural moisturizing factor) which exists in the horny layer of the skin is maintaining the grace (moisture maintenance) of the skin, including amino acid abundantly.
Pearl Conchiolin helps work of NMFs and has the moisturing action.

Translation / English

Cell activation effect ... Division growth and reborn function of cells becomes impaired with age. To help the division growth function promise for keeping youthfulness.
Moisturizing effect ... Glycine is specifically major as amino composition of pearl conchiholin, and followed by involving alanine. This composition is similar to amino composition of collagen which is a skin moisturizing ingredient. And also, NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor) in stratum corneum of the skin contains rich amino acid and keep skin moisture (water retention). Pearl conchiholin helps NMFs function and contains moisturizing effect.

Translation / English

Cell activation effect: Aging lowers the function that cells break up and multiply to reborn. People can maintain their youth by improving the function that cells to break up and multiply. Moisturizing effect: Among the composition of amino acids contained in pearl’s conchiolin, an amazing large in amount is glycine, followed by alanine. This composition is similar to that of amino acids in colagen which is a moisturizing element for skin. The natural moisture factor (NMF) that exists in skin’s horny layers abounds in amino acids and keeps skin’s moisture (water retention). Pearl conchiolin helps the functions of NMFs and has moisturizing effect.
