摘要

PURPOSE: A pharmaceutical composition containing Salicis radicis cortex-derived terepenes or catechin glycoside compounds for anti-aging is provided to suppress cell senescence and to treat aging-related diseases. CONSTITUTION: A pharmaceutical composition for anti-aging contains Salicis radicis cortex-isolated terepenes or catechin glycosides as an active ingredient. The terepenes compound is isolated by adding distilled water and hexane to Salicis radicis cortex methanol extract and separating from hexane layer.
