Aging is a natural process that occurs in all living organisms. Particularly, the skin embodies aging since it serves as barrier between body and its surroundings. Previously, we reported wound healing effect of Launaea procumbens identified compounds therein. The study aims to explore anti-aging properties plant extract. To effect, antioxidant potential L. methanolic extract (LPM) was assessed using two complementary DPPH FRAP assays. enzyme inhibitory on collagenase, elastase, hyaluronidase, tyrosinase evaluated assess direct effects. Similarly, anti-inflammatory activity indirect effects via assessment cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX). In addition, ADMET molecular docking studies were performed interaction mechanisms LPM with target enzymes. demonstrated significant (IC50 = 29.08 µg/mL) (1214.67 µM FeSO4/g extract) Plant showed inhibition 52.68, 43.76, 31.031, 37.13 µg/mL, respectively). COX-2 5-LOX capacity IC50 values 8.635 10.851 respectively. revealed high bind active sites enzymes crucially involved process. analysis their good absorption, distribution, metabolism profiles, they found be safe well. Study findings suggest promising source for development compounds. This, turn, may facilitate incorporation into cosmetic formulations after further investigation.
