Background
With the continuous improvement of the living standard of the modern society, the life rhythm of people is gradually accelerated, and the white hair phenomenon is gradually younger caused by the problems of increased living pressure, irregular diet, environmental pollution and the like. The early graying of hair not only brings serious influence to the appearance of people, but also causes great stress to the spirit and the mind of people. The white hair is caused by the reduction or air-filling of melanin granules in the hair's medulla and cortex. Under normal conditions, the inside of the hair papilla is rich in blood vessels, so that sufficient nutrition is provided for the hair papilla and hair bulb, and melanin granules are smoothly synthesized. When melanin granules are formed in the papilla or the bulbar portion of the hair, and are not transported to the hair due to some factors, thereby reducing or eliminating melanin granules in the medullary or cortex portion of the hair, there occurs a problem that the hair is early white, for example, gray, grayy, white, etc. At present, the treatment means for early graying of hair is limited, and the problems of high cost, slow effect, poor effect, easy repetition and the like exist. In addition, most people suffering from the problem of early graying of hair choose to dye hair in order to meet the requirement of beauty treatment, but frequent hair dyeing is expensive, and most of hair dyes sold in the market at present contain aniline substances, so that allergy is easily caused, the hair dyes can further damage the scalp and hair follicles, the disease condition is aggravated, and other hair problems such as alopecia are caused. Therefore, a new hair-blackening product is needed to solve the problem of early-whitening of hair economically, quickly and effectively.
Glycyrrhetinic acid (also called Glycyrrhetinic acid) is a triterpenoid saponin compound extracted from root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch (Glycyrrhexis glabra L.) of Leguminosae, and has the following structural formula:

Example 2
This example illustrates the effect of glycyrrhetinic acid in promoting melanin production.
The density of the B16 melanoma cell suspension was adjusted to 1X 1051 mL/mL of the culture medium was inoculated into a 12-well plate, and the cell density was adjusted to 5X 104Each well was cultured in an incubator (37 ℃ C., 5% carbon dioxide) for 24 hours. And taking out the 12-hole plate, removing the culture medium, adding 1mL of culture medium containing the sample to be detected, adding 1mL of culture medium containing no sample to be detected into the blank control group and the zero adjustment group, continuously placing the blank control group and the zero adjustment group in an incubator for culturing for 12 hours, and removing the culture medium. The experimental group and the zero-setting group were added with 1mL of 0.25mg/mL, 0.5mg/mL, and 1mg/mL glycyrrhetinic acid solution prepared with RPMI1640 medium, respectively, and the blank group was added with 1mL of RPMI1640 medium (containing no glycyrrhetinic acid). After culturing for 36 hours in an incubator, the medium was aspirated, washed twice with 1mL of PBS, 100. mu.L of a 1M NaOH solution containing 10% DMSO (prepared with PBS) was added to each well, and after water bath for 1 hour at 80 ℃, the cell lysates of the respective groups in the 12-well plate were transferred to a 96-well plate, and the absorbance OD of each well was measured at 475nm using a microplate reader. The formula for calculating the intracellular melanin content is as follows:
intracellular melanin content ═ OD5-OD7)/(OD6-OD7)×100%
OD5: absorbance values of the test groups
OD6: absorbance values of blank control
OD7: absorbance values of zeroing groups
See table 1 for specific experimental results.
TABLE 1 Glycyrrhetinic acid in vitro test results
Glycyrrhetinic acid dosage (mg/ml) Tyrosinase activation rate (%) Melanin content (%)
1 388.45±16.24 2.12±0.34
0.5 245.12±8.46 1.22±0.26
0.25 126.21±6.21 0.61±0.03
The color of hair depends mainly on the content of melanocytes and melanin in the hair bulb and papilla. Melanocytes, which are mainly present in the basal layer of the epidermis and hair follicles, among which tyrosinase is the most important factor determining melanin synthesis. The early formation of hair graying is mostly caused by the decrease of melanocytes and melanosomes or the decrease of tyrosinase activity causing melanin synthesis disorders.
As can be seen from the results in table 1, glycyrrhetinic acid has a good activating effect on tyrosinase, promoting melanin synthesis; and the effect is more obvious along with the increase of the concentration in a certain concentration.
Example 3
This example uses animal experiments to demonstrate the hair-blacking effect of glycyrrhetinic acid.
Selecting 45 healthy black and colored guinea pigs with the weight of 300-: normal control group (no treatment); group B: model control group (no drug after molding); group C: glycyrrhetinic acid experimental group (drug application after molding). Groups B-C the guinea pig test area was overcoated with 5% hydrogen peroxide for 40 days 2 times a day with 2ml each time, and the model was made (the guinea pig hair was made white). After the molding is successful, the group C is coated with 0.1 wt% glycyrrhetinic acid 1 time per day, 2ml each time, and continuously coated for 30 days.
After the modeling experiment is finished, one guinea pig in each group is randomly cut into skin tissues in an experimental area with a proper size to be pathological sections, and the melanin changes of the skin tissues and hair follicles are observed. The pathological section observation skin tissue and hair follicle melanin change method: cutting skin tissue of an experimental area with proper size, fixing with 10% formaldehyde, dehydrating the conventional tissue, embedding paraffin, HE staining, performing light microscopic examination, and observing indexes related to hair follicle melanin growth of the skin tissue of the guinea pig. ② the dermis thickness measurement, the skin is thickened in the hair growth period, so the measurement of the dermis thickness (the distance between a basement membrane and a muscle membrane) can indirectly reflect the hair growth condition. And counting hair follicles, namely counting the number of the hair follicles in a high-power visual field (200 times). The number of capillaries in the dermis layer is 200 times that in the high visual field. Counting the number of cells containing melanin granules per 100 basal cells under a high power lens (400 times). Sixthly, observing 50 hair follicles at random under a high power microscope (400 times), and counting the number of melanin hair follicles.
The center of the selected application part of other guinea pigs is 4cm2The effect is judged in the observation area. The criteria for determination are as follows: "you" is the pigment recovery area in the observation area and the black hair in the new hair>75 percent; "good" refers to the area of pigment appearing in the observation area and new black hair>50 percent; the middle part is the area where pigment appears in the observation area and new black hair appears>25 percent; "poor" is a pale or leukoplakia, hairless growth or new white vellus hair in the observation area. The total effective rate is calculated by the proportion of 'excellent' and 'good'.
The results of this example are as follows:
the results of the general histological examination show that the test area is completely covered by squamous epithelium, the keratinized layer is not thickened, the dermis is not provided with vasodilatation congestion, inflammatory cell infiltration and the like, which indicates that the guinea pig skin has complete structure, and the glycyrrhetinic acid has no stimulation to the skin and is safe to use.
The results of observation of the effect of glycyrrhetinic acid on improving early graying of hair are shown in table 2, and the results of the effect on the skin and hair follicle melanin of guinea pigs are shown in table 3.
TABLE 2 Observation of Effect of Glycyrrhetinic acid on improving premature graying of Hair
Figure BDA0002658620670000131
TABLE 3 Effect of Glycyrrhetinic acid on Guinea pig skin and Hair follicle Melanin
Group of n Number of basal cells containing melanin granules Hair follicle number with melanin
Group A 15 78±2.12 45.93±2.63
Group B 15 31.1±2.6 22.1±3.68
Group C 15 76.1±7.52 43.1±2.69
As can be seen from the results of tables 2 and 3, the total effective rate of improving hair whitening in the guinea pigs in the glycyrrhetinic acid-applied experimental group was significantly higher than that in the model control group, and the number of basal cells containing melanin granules and the number of hair follicles containing melanin in the skin sections were also higher than those in the model control group. Therefore, the glycyrrhetinic acid has a good effect of improving the early-graying condition of hair.
Example 4
This example illustrates the hair-blackening effect of the wash care product provided by the present invention.
Guinea pigs were molded according to the method of example 3, and hair-blackening effect experiments were performed on the successfully molded guinea pigs using the hair-blackening shampoos in table 4. The specific method comprises the following steps: guinea pigs were divided into three groups, group a being a normal control group (without any treatment); group B was a model control group (no drug was used after molding); group C: glycyrrhetinic acid experimental group (drug application after molding). After the group B-C modeling is successful, the group B washes the hair of the tested area once by warm water every 24 hours for 90 days continuously; in group C, the hair of the test area was washed once every 24 hours with 2mL of shampoo of the formula in Table 4 for 90 consecutive days.
The above experiment achieved similar effects as in example 3. The percentage of black hair in the new hair was significantly increased in the guinea pigs of group C compared to the guinea pigs of group B. Therefore, the hair blackening shampoo provided by the invention has a good effect of improving the early graying of hair. In the experimental process, no obvious anaphylactic reaction occurs to the skin of the guinea pig, and the hair-blacking shampoo provided by the invention is proved to be mild and non-irritant to the skin.
