Description

Composition for enhancing bioavailability of silymarin
Background
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a composition for enhancing the bioavailability of silymarin and a food composition comprising the same.
Description of the Related Art
Silymarin is a component extracted from the eriodictyol of Silybum marianum (Silybum marianum), a medicinal plant belonging to the family Compositae, and is a flavonoid-based compound. The plant is of south europe and north africa and is also grown in the continental americas, and the plant has therefore been cultivated as an ornamental or medicinal plant.
Silymarin is known to stabilize the liver cell membrane, thereby inhibiting the inflow of harmful substances into the cells, and to activate protein synthesis of the liver cells, thereby promoting the regeneration of the liver cells. Therefore, it has been widely used for treating various liver diseases caused by smoking, drinking, overworking, and environmental pollution due to various pollutions.
Preparations containing silymarin as an active ingredient have been widely used clinically for the treatment of liver diseases. However, silymarin, which is an active ingredient thereof, is a water-insoluble substance, which is rarely dissolved in water, and has low absorption when orally administered, and thus, its bioavailability is only about 20-40%. Therefore, enhancing bioavailability by increasing solubility and dissolution rate is considered to be important in the development of silymarin-containing formulations.
In the related art, in order to increase the low solubility and bioavailability of silymarin, a self-emulsifying drug delivery system consisting of a drug, an oil, a surfactant, a co-surfactant, a solvent, and the like has been applied. However, in this case, there is a disadvantage in that a large amount of synthetic surfactant (e.g., polysorbate, etc.) and a large amount of organic solvent (e.g., hexane, etc.) which are not used for food and may cause more irritation (e.g., gastritis and gastric ulcer) to a user having gastrointestinal diseases or cause side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc., are used. In addition, the volume of the formulation becomes larger, which is inconvenient for ingestion.
Further, in the case of silymarin as a tablet, there is a demand for soft capsules due to low consumer preference due to specific odor or the like, and in terms of convenience of taking, a technology of containing a high content of functional ingredients in a small size is required.

[ examples and comparative examples ]
Examples 1 to 21 and comparative examples 1 to 4, which are compositions having a total content of 600mg, were prepared according to the compositions of Table 1 below (unit: mg).
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0002312445650000061
[ test example 1] evaluation of dissolution of silymarin
The dissolution rates of examples 1-21, comparative examples 1-4 and milk thistle extracts were compared and evaluated. The milk thistle extract is a raw material prepared as follows: separating and extracting from milk thistle (Silybum marianum), filtering, concentrating, purifying, and using milk thistle extract (HONSON) with silymarin content of 50%

Canada).
Dissolution evaluation assay was performed by dissolution evaluation assay in accordance with the dissolution assay method of korean pharmacopoeia to evaluate dissolution in vitro, and the amount of silybin, which is a main component of silymarin, was quantified and evaluated by HPLC analysis method. More specifically, according to the Paddle method according to the dissolution determination project of the Korean pharmacopoeia, 3ml of each of examples 1 to 21, comparative examples 1 to 4 and milk thistle extract was taken, and 500ml of purified water was used as a dissolution solution, and the dissolution rate was measured at 37 ℃ at a rotation frequency of 150 rpm. The results are shown in Table 2 below (unit:. mu.g/mL) and in FIG. 1.
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0002312445650000071
The results shown in table 2 and fig. 1 show that examples 1 to 21, which contained one or more of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine, silymarin and soybean oil, exhibited higher dissolution concentrations of silymarin than comparative example 1, which contained only silymarin and soybean oil. Thus, it was confirmed that the dissolution rate of silymarin was increased by including one or more of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine.
Furthermore, it can be confirmed that examples 7 to 21 comprising one or more of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine in a weight ratio of 1: 0.46 to 1: 1.53 have a much higher dissolution concentration of silymarin after 240 minutes of the dissolution test, as compared to the milk thistle extract.
As can be seen from the above, it was confirmed that the health functional food composition comprising the composition for enhancing bioavailability of silymarin according to the present disclosure and silymarin has greatly enhanced bioavailability due to excellent dissolution rate of silymarin.
On the other hand, it was confirmed that comparative examples 2 to 4 had increased dissolution concentration of silymarin because the amount of one or more of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine was increased, but as will be shown in test example 2 below, the measurement results of the degree of disintegration showed that formulation as a soft capsule was not possible.
Test example 2 disintegration measurement of Soft Capsule preparation
A disintegration test was conducted to evaluate whether the compositions of example 11 and comparative example 2 were suitable for production as a soft capsule formulation. The disintegration measurement was performed according to the disintegration measurement method among the general measurement methods in the korean food standard Codex. Specifically, water was used as the measurement solution, and a disintegration tester (J-DTC2,
Figure BDA0002312445650000081
) And (4) carrying out measurement. In the case of the soft capsule, it should be completely disintegrated within 20 minutes, and the auxiliary plate is placed and moved up and down for 20 minutes, and then it is determined that the disintegration is complete if no residue of the corresponding composition remains in the glass tube, or if the residue is a film even though the residue remains.
The results are shown in FIG. 2. From the results of fig. 2, it can be confirmed that the composition according to example 11 of the present disclosure is suitable for production as a soft capsule because it is completely disintegrated within 20 minutes. In contrast, in the case of comparative example 2, it was confirmed that the weight ratio of silymarin to one or more of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine was 1: 2.31, and thus the amounts of lecithin and phosphatidylcholine were too high, so that the viscosity was high and thus not completely disintegrated within 20 minutes. Therefore, the composition is not suitable for the production as a soft capsule.
[ test example 3] evaluation of bioavailability
The pharmacokinetics of each milk thistle extract of test example 1 and the composition of example 11 were examined to evaluate the bioavailability of silibinin, which is the main component of silymarin. Specifically, 200mg/kg of milk thistle extract and the composition of example 11 were orally administered to five SD rats based on the silybin concentration, and then blood samples were taken 11 times in total (0 min, 2 min, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min, 180 min) over time and analyzed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).
The HPLC analysis conditions were as follows.
-HPLC type: model Prominsence of Shimadzu HPLC-UV system
-analytical column: kientex C18 column (250X 4.6mm)
-a mobile phase: isocratic mode, 10mM ammonium acetate buffer acetonitrile 74: 26
-flow rate: 1.0mL/min
-UV wavelength: 288nm
-sample injection volume: 20 μ L
In the HPLC analysis method, specifically, 120. mu.L of SD rat plasma was taken, 400. mu.L of acetonitrile containing an internal standard substance (phenacetin 3. mu.g/mL) was added, and mixed for 5 minutes to deproteinize. The deproteinized sample was then centrifuged at 15,000 Xg for 10 minutes at 4 ℃ to obtain 400. mu.L of supernatant, which was then dried using a nitrogen concentrator and reconstituted with 60. mu.L of mobile phase. Then 20 μ L of the sample was injected into HPLC for analysis.
The results are shown in the following table and in fig. 3.
TABLE 3
Auclast(μg·min/ml) Cmax(μg/ml)
Milk thistle extract 76.5±19.2 1.02±0.24
Extract 11 207±28 3.13±0.49
(AuclastIs an index for comparing the total blood absorption of test drugs, CmaxIs the highest blood concentration index for the test drug. )
From the results of table 3 and fig. 3, it was verified that in the composition according to example 11 of the present disclosure, the total blood absorption and maximum concentration values of silibinin, which is the main component of silymarin, were greatly increased compared to the milk thistle extract. That is, it was confirmed that in example 11 according to the present disclosure, the bioavailability of silymarin was significantly higher than that of milk thistle extract.
