Description

Methionine-derived peptidomimetics and their use in protecting mitochondria of skin cells
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a group of selected peptide mimetics derived from methionine amino acids and their use as a protective agent for the mitochondria of skin cells. The invention also relates to compositions intended to prevent or combat skin conditions associated with mitochondrial dysfunction.
Background
Mitochondria play a crucial role for plant cells and animal cells as cytoplasmic organelles present in these cells. In fact, mitochondria are called "cellular energy generation plants" because they produce and store Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), a universal energy component required for the operation of all eukaryotic cells.
In the above-mentioned production by a series of redox chemical reactions (commonly referred to as "mitochondrial respiratory chain"), the necessary oxidant is oxygen. Oxygen is therefore essential for cellular operations, but paradoxically, oxygen is also the primary and concurrent source of reactive species known as "reactive oxygen species" (ERO in french, ROS in english), which are potentially toxic to cellular biochemical macromolecules (DNA, proteins, lipids, etc.).
To neutralize this ROS formation, all cells naturally form some enzymatic or non-enzymatic antioxidant defense system that requires some energy to operate, and the preferred energy is just the above-mentioned ATP released by the mitochondrial respiratory chain (Singh K.K., FEMS Yeast Res.,2004,5: 127-. However, when an imbalance occurs between the production of ROS and the clearance of ROS by the intracellular defence system due to an excessive amount of ROS, the resulting oxidative stress can therefore gradually cause a decline in mitochondrial function, which is manifested in particular by a disruption of the electron flow generating energy and by the formation of ROS inside the mitochondria (known as "intramitochondrial ROS") (Jones D.P., Chemico Biological Comm.,2006,163: 38-53). This imbalance at the cellular level and lack of energy will impair the ability of the cell to adapt to the physiological stress to which it is exposed. In conclusion this promotes the senescence phenomenon of cells (Trifunovic A. et al, J.of Internal medicine, 263: 167-. It is also confirmed that these mitochondrial-derived disruptions are apparently associated with The development of a wide variety of pathological conditions or tissue disorders (Barlow-Stewart k., The australian Genetics resources Book,2007, pages 1-3, and references cited therein).
Mitochondria remain the primary target as a source of intracellular ROS. Thus, one of the problems currently being addressed by many researchers is to reduce the mitochondrial-derived oxidative metabolism and promote or protect mitochondrial function in order to best maintain functional and/or structural integrity of all mitochondria.
In the prior art with the same goals as demonstrated in the past years, the following existing strategies and systems have generally been adopted:
selecting strong antioxidants, such as lipoic acid (more commonly known as alpha-lipoic acid), which carry one or more thiol or phenolic moieties and are present in nature in the animal or plant kingdom, which have proven to have a beneficial effect against mitochondrial ageing (palaianipan a.r. et al, neurochem.res.,2007,32:1552-1558), or ergothioneine (ergothionine), which is a thiourea derivative, said to protect the mitochondrial membrane of mammals (us patent No. 6,479,533),
the use of some molecules or conventional antioxidant proteins, but which have been modified for greater internal storage by the addition/grafting of groups or sequences with strong affinity for mitochondria (hydrophobic cations, etc.) (Kagan V.E. et al, adv. drug Delivery Rev. 2009,61:1375-1385),
the development of small peptides purportedly having "permeabilization", replacing some basic and aromatic amino acid residues by having the ability to penetrate the inner mitochondrial membrane and subsequently exhibit some cytoprotective and mitochondrial protective properties within mitochondria (Szeto h.h., associations & Redox Signaling,2008,3: 1-15).
The present invention was made in the same context of identifying new products or articles, with the aim of satisfying the overall need of "improving mitochondrial function" (b. lacriox, Nutranews, 4 months 2008), but mainly because these products or articles are applied topically to the skin, also the needs of cosmetic and/or dermatological applications, while also satisfying the needs of the following coexistence objectives:
-maintaining/restoring a high metabolic activity of the skin cell mitochondria when the skin cell is physiologically affected;
exhibit acceptable bioavailability at the deep layer of the skin. On the one hand, it is recognized that this is an essential prerequisite for achieving mitochondrial protection of skin cells in vivo. On the other hand, this can be used to avoid premature metabolism in the superficial layers of the skin even before it can act on the epidermal and dermal cells.
Against the harmful effects of reactive oxygen species on the own cells and against the mitochondrial produced ROS rather than those of extracellular origin (uv radiation, pollution, oxidative environmental toxins, etc.).
To achieve these objectives, the applicant has studied various forms of excited oxygen (e.g., O)2°-And1O2) Thioether compounds that inactivate ("quench") the ability (Cohen S.G. and L., J.am.chem.Soc.,1975,97: 5633-5631 and references cited therein).
More particularly, the applicant is concerned with methionine, i.e. in which the sulfur atom is involved in the same thioether functionEnergetic group (S-CH)3) But some of the properties attached to methionine are contrary to the sought aim: sulfur-containing organic derivative odors unsuitable for cosmetic/dermatological applications, lower skin penetration capacity, more importantly evidence of oxidative damage of intramitochondrial ROS and mitochondrial DNA produced by methionine food supplements (Caro p. et al, rev. esp. geriatr. gerntol., 2009,44: 194-199; Sanz a. et al, FASEB j.,2006,20: 1064-1073). In addition, it is predicted that the sensitivity of the oligomethionine-type peptides (di-methionine, tri-methionine, etc.) to skin proteases is too high.
The above is why the applicant will eventually study the synthesis of peptide mimetics derived against methionine.
Disclosure of Invention
Thus, through further structure-activity studies, the applicant will choose to lock onto a few original compounds derived from methionine that do not have the drawbacks shown by methionine or oligomethionine, according to their good compliance with the combination of criteria described above. The good agreement appears to be:
-an excellent ability to maintain the metabolic activity of skin cells exposed to stress conditions, said ability being reflected by the maintenance of ATP production levels [ see test 1 below ];
extremely good, even exceeding, the skin absorption of the stratum corneum, which is reflected in the logarithmic value ("Log Kp") of the permeability coefficient of the compound [ see test 2 below ], which is similar to that of osmotic compounds such as caffeine;
the ability to reduce mitochondrial oxidative stress, and to modulate the quality of mitochondria produced in response to the same stress conditions (referred to as "mitochondrial biogenesis") [ see test 3 below ];
high degree of cytoprotection, particularly on the V79 fibroblast line [ see test 4 below]The cell line is characterized in that: for the respiratory chain derived from mitochondriaDisordered hydrogen peroxide H2O2Sensitive (Tatsumi T. et al, Basic Res. Cardiol.,1993,88: 199-;
strong antioxidant properties, expressed in relation to oxidative species (hydroxyl radical OH °, peroxynitrite ion ONOO) known to affect mitochondria-Singlet oxygen1O2) With scavenging capacity of, e.g. ascorbic acid or TroloxTMIso-reference to the ability of antioxidants to clear similarly [ see test 5 and test 6 below];

Example 2
Purely by way of example, the invention is elucidated hereinafter by the following tests (test 1 to test 6) which have been mentioned above in the description of the invention. It should also be noted that in vivo studies are ongoing and preliminary results may also elucidate the use of some methionine-derived peptide mimetics of the present invention.
Test 1: peptide mimetics derived from methionine have the ability to restore exposure to stress conditions (H)2O2) (ii) the ability of cellular ATP levels in cells
An experimental study was performed on a fibroblast cell line designated V79, and cells were seeded into 96-well plates containing 5000 cells per well in 100 μ l of medium (containing 10% fetal bovine serum). The original medium was then replaced in each well with 100. mu.l of medium containing some peptide mimetics of the invention at a concentration of 7.5mM or 10 mM. After 2 hours of incubation, the medium was removed from all wells. Then by adding H containing 50. mu.l hydrogen peroxide2O2(4ppm) of medium to subject the cells to stress. After an additional 8 hours of incubation, the average ATP concentration was measured by luminometry (luminometry) in the presence of fluorescein ("ATPLITE 1 step" kit) and a standard curve drawn from high purity ATP.
The results are expressed as the mean values obtained from three independent experiments and are shown in table 1 below, and compared to a control.

The large decrease in the amount of ATP observed in the control is largely avoided in the presence of the compounds of the invention, indicating that the compounds of the invention have the ability to restore ATP production in cells exposed to stress conditions.
And (3) testing 2: transdermal absorption studies of methionine-derived peptidomimetics on explanted human skin
Permeability coefficient (Kp) values were obtained from previously frozen abdominal plastic human skin following the protocol described in OCDE guidelines n ° 428 for skin absorption studies.
In the experiment, explanted skin was placed on a Frantz-type device (Frantz-type cell) with passive diffusion and guided by the "MicroettePlus Hanson Research" system. The tested product is laid in a non-closed manner. After the skin was placed on the devices, 500 μ l of a peptidomimetic of the invention (1% solution) was placed in each device and contacted for a total of 24 hours. Thereafter, the remaining product is sampled and rinsed off the skin surface for extraction and measurement of the absorption, and subsequently for determination of the permeability coefficient (Log Kp) expressed in logarithmic form.
Data are collected in table 2 below.

And (3) testing: evidence for a protective role for mitochondrial oxidative stress and mitochondrial biogenesis for N-acetyl- (DL) -methionyl-4- (methylthio) propylamine compounds
The principle is as follows: measurement of oxidative stress within mitochondrial cells and detection of mitochondrial biogenesis is achieved by flow cytometry using the following fluorescent markers:

-Green fluorescent Probe "Green FM ", hereinafter" Mitogreen "(detection at λ 516 nm; supplier: Invitrogen) allows the quality of mitochondria (or the relative number of mitochondria per cell) to be quantified.
In the experiment, the test was performed on a hamster fibroblast cell line "V79" obtained by incubating at 37 ℃ and 5% CO2Maintained in a humid atmosphere in "EMEM" complete medium (containing 10% fetal bovine serum). V79 cells were seeded into 96-well plates at 2.5X 10 cells per well5The cells were incubated with 3ml of the same medium for 24 hours, followed by addition of H-containing hydrogen peroxide2O2(15ppm) of medium and exposed to stress conditions for 1 hour 30 minutes.
After trypsinization, cells were incubated for 15 minutes at 37 ℃ in 1ml of EMEM complete medium containing "MitoSOX" (final concentration 5. mu.M) and "MitoGreen" (final concentration 200nM) as described above, to detect:
mitochondrial oxidative stress (expressed as% of positive cells)
Mitochondrial mass per cell (expressed as% MFI relative to control ("mean fluorescence intensity")).
The results are expressed as mean values obtained from four independent experiments and are shown in tables 3a and 3b below and compared with the results corresponding to N-acetyl cysteine at a concentration of 5mM selected as a reference protectant.

(1997),122:1702-1706), and the peptide mimetics of the present invention were compared to two reference antioxidants, mannitol and ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
In the experiment, the test substance was dissolved in a buffered medium at pH 7.4 and an OH ° generating system (ascorbate/iron/EDTA) was added to the medium in the presence of deoxyribose. After incubation at 37 ℃ for 1 hour, the reaction was stopped with the aid of trichloroacetic acid. After colorimetric imaging with thiobarbituric acid, the absorbance was measured at 532nm for different concentrations, and then the relative Ks (OH °) for each substance was calculated. The results are shown in table 5 below.
