Description

Composition for treating acne and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and particularly relates to a composition for treating acne as well as a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Acne is a common, chronic inflammatory disorder of the sebaceous glands. Most traditional topical formulations for treating acne generally have a high incidence of side effects such as skin irritation, erythema, and itching, and low patient compliance.
Azelaic acid is a saturated dicarboxylic acid naturally produced by malassezia and has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and keratolytic activities; azelaic acid competitively inhibits tyrosinase, DNA synthesis and mitochondrial enzymes, and is therefore an effective drug for the topical treatment of mild to moderate acne and post-inflammatory pigmentation, but azelaic acid has the problem of poor solubility, low bioavailability and limited effectiveness in treating acne. Fusidic acid is an antibiotic with a steroid skeleton, is effective against staphylococcus aureus and other gram positive bacteria (e.g., propionibacterium acnes), and can be used topically for treating skin or wound infections. The fusidic acid plays an antibacterial role by inhibiting the transfer of the elongation factor G from ribosome in the synthesis process of bacterial proteins, and simultaneously can inhibit chloramphenicol acetyl transferase, so that the action mechanism effectively avoids the cross drug resistance of the fusidic acid and other antibacterial drugs, and the current drug resistance rate is lower. However, the fusidic acid also has the problem of extremely low water solubility and almost no water solubility, which limits the bioavailability of the fusidic acid and the effect of treating acne, and challenges the application of the fusidic acid preparation in the field of treating acne.
Therefore, there is a need to provide a composition which has good transdermal effect, high skin retention, and thus good bioavailability and acne treatment effect.

The period of time when the back of the mouse swells (after two days of injection of the bacterial liquid) was recorded as day 1. The control group was normal BALB/c mice without molding. The acne mice after molding were divided into seven groups (n=6): the model set (model set), the commercial formulation set (commercial azelaic acid, commercial azelaic acid + commercial fusidic acid), the example 1 choline-azelaic acid-fusidic acid ionic liquid set (ionic liquid set), the example 1 choline-azelaic acid-fusidic acid ionic liquid double gel set (ionic liquid double gel set), the blank double gel matrix set (no choline-azelaic acid-fusidic acid ionic liquid compared to example 1, otherwise identical to example 1). Each group was dosed daily on time, with the amounts of azelaic acid and fusidic acid remaining consistent. The back acne sites of the mice were photographed on days 1,3,5, 7 for each group. After the experiment is finished, the mice are killed by cervical dislocation, the back skin is removed, a part of the skin is added with a sterile culture medium and ground for bacterial culture, a part of the skin is put into 4% paraformaldehyde for fixation, hematoxylin-eosin staining, oil red O staining and immunohistochemistry are carried out after paraffin section, a part of the skin is preserved for polymerase chain reaction experiment (PCR experiment), and the expression of mRNA of 5 alpha-reductase, TNF-alpha and K16 closely related to the development of acne vulgaris is measured by adopting the PCR experiment.
