Definitions

  • the invention relates to the use of an antioxidant chosen from group 5 consisting of superoxide dismutases (SODs), superoxide dismutase mimetics, derivatives of superoxide dismutases, racemic alpha lipoic acid, enantiomers of alpha lipoic acid and mixtures of these antioxidants, for the manufacture of a medicament intended for the treatment and / or prevention of ocular surface conditions, in humans or
  • the ocular surface is the transition mucosa between the deep ocular medium and the external medium. It is necessary to maintain the integrity of the cornea, transparent eye window open to the outside for the transmission of images to the retina, the loss of its transparency being synonymous with blindness,
  • the ocular surface As an anatomical and functional barrier, protecting the eye from external aggressors. It is formed by a triad, the cornea, the tear film and the conjunctiva (Hoang-Xuant T 1998, Pouliquen Y. 1991, Rigal D., 1993, Baudouin Ch. 1998).
  • the corneal epithelium provides a barrier function necessary for the protection of the underlying corneal constituents and of the endocular environment.
  • the tear film consists of three layers: a lipid layer 0.1 ⁇ m thick, an aqueous intermediate layer 7 ⁇ m and a layer
  • mucus secreted by the goblet cells present in the conjunctival epithelium spreads over the ocular surface. It is related to the apical cytoplasmic membrane of the surface cells via the glycocalyx.
  • the tear film acts by physico-chemical properties
  • Tears actively participate in the non-specific defense mechanisms of the cornea thanks to the presence of lactoferrin, lysosyme and immunoglobulins. To these non-specific means brought by tears are added the specific elements of the conjunctival tissue.
  • the lacrimal mucus, glycolipids and glycoproteins complex of the epithelial plasma membranes conditions the quality of the coma surface.
  • the epithelial surface is hydrophobic and the aqueous phase of the tears, instead of spreading, is deposited in drops.
  • the mucin by decreasing the surface tension allows the aqueous component of the tears to spread and be adsorbed by the epithelial surface, thus maintaining a stable tear film between each blink.
  • any abnormality in the mucus layer will compromise the stability of the tear film and cause it to rupture to form dry spots and this very quickly after the effect of blinking resurfacing.
  • Apical expansions, such as microvilli, microplates of surface cells by increasing the adhesion of the tear film thus contribute to better stability of the tear film.
  • the alteration of this como-conjunctival surface promotes bacterial adhesion to the epithelial surfaces.
  • the cornea also has the conjunctiva.
  • the conjunctiva is a vascularized mucous membrane that covers the surface of the globe and the posterior surface of the upper and lower eyelids. It is responsible for the secretion of mucus essential for the stability of the tear film and the Comean transparency.
  • Oxidative stress plays a major role through oxygenated free radicals, species highly toxic to the mucous membranes, due to their high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
  • Free radicals are chemical species having on their peripheral orbital an electron not coupled, celibate, giving them a great instability compared to the presence of two electrons in periphery (Pryor ' WA.
  • the primary radicals are the superoxide anion (0 2 .-), the starting point of the radical chains starting from molecular oxygen.
  • the superoxide anion (0 2 .-) releases hydrogen peroxide (H 2 0 2 ) into the medium.
  • H 2 0 2 is then converted into a hydroxyl radical (OH.), A very reactive species.
  • Nitric oxide Is a simple molecule and a free radical centered on the nitrogen atom. It is formed in vivo by the constitutive NO synthases (NOS) but under certain pathological conditions, another NOS can be expressed, it is the inducible NOS.
  • N0 2 and N 2 0 3 are qualified as reactive nitrogen species, responsible for nitrosative stress.
  • the superoxide anion (0 2 .-) can react with nitrogen monoxide (NO.)
  • NO. nitrogen monoxide
  • ONOO- peroxynitrite anion
  • Secondary radicals come from the membrane lipid peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (arachidonic acid for example) which are the most sensitive targets.
  • This lipid peroxidation is a chain reaction initiated by the hydroxyl radical (OH.) With the carbon chain of a polyunsaturated fatty acid (L) thus forming an alkyl radical (L.).
  • O 2 molecular oxygen
  • the alkyl radicals (L.) lead to the release of peroxyl (ROO.) And alkoxyl (RO.) Radicals, during propagation reactions.
  • ROO. peroxyl
  • RO. alkoxyl Radicals
  • Oxidative attacks are directed on the side groups or on the asymmetric carbon of the amino acids.
  • carbonyl groups by the direct oxidation of amino acids is considered to be one of the major oxidative modifications of proteins. These carbonyl groups are used as markers for the oxidation of proteins (Dean RT et al. 1997).
  • the bases of DNA are very sensitive to the action of biological oxidants.
  • the superoxide anion (0 2 .-) can oxidize DNA through the formation of the hydroxyl radical (OH.) In the presence of iron (Henle ES and Linn S. 1997).
  • OH. hydroxyl radical
  • iron iron
  • Free radicals thus have deleterious effects on the cells of the cornea and conjunctiva, ranging from the presence of erosions to severe ulcers, very disabling.
  • Environmental factors are permanent sources of attack on the ocular surface.
  • Blepharitis and ocular rosacea are also frequent causes of qualitative dry eye, with infectious and inflammatory components. These conditions lead to a dysfunction of the Meibonian glands which disturbs the composition of the lipid phase of the tear film and increases the rate of evaporation of tears. These phenomena manifest themselves clinically by a shortening of the GOAL (resistance to the stretching of tears and lead to epithelial hyperosmolarity. These meibomian dysfunctions, result in cellular suffering, rupture of the intercellular junctions, loss of goblet cells and probably a deficit secretion of mucus by conjunctival cells (Toda I. et al. 1995).
  • a common dryness is observed by degenerative atrophy of the lacrimal glands, treated with eye drops, unable to relieve patients. Where irritant eye drops accumulate, particularly in the area of lower palpebral or nasal cleft, a toxic effect may be observed.
  • preservatives such as benzalkonium chloride, quaternary ammoniums. These preservatives also have a significant degree of toxicity through the production of free radicals. This results in reduced resistance to tear stretching, direct toxicity to epithelial cells, with epithelial erosions and an inflammatory reaction. It should be noted that the half-life of benzalkonium is 20 hours and that significant levels of preservatives persist 168 hours after instillation of a single drop (De Saint Jean et al. 1999).
  • the inflammatory reaction is an essential component of dry eye syndromes. It is therefore necessary to develop treatments adapted to dry eye syndrome and much more generally to affections of the ocular surface.
  • topical products containing preservatives (antiseptic substances) on the surface of the eye can modify the balance of the ocular surface and be at the origin of serious anomalies of the conjunctiva and the cornea which can develop at low noise and only appear very late, sometimes in completely unexpected ways.

  • heterologous SODs appear to exhibit significantly higher anti-inflammatory activity than the homologs.

Consequently, the present invention proposes, because of the positive effects of SOD, to use it alone or in the presence of a pharmaceutical vehicle in the treatment of affections of the ocular surface.

In its presence, there is an increase in glutathione in the cells,
  • DHLA also protects from the deleterious effects of ischemia-reperfusion by inhibiting the activity of xanthine oxidase, an enzyme that releases superoxide anion (Prenn JH et al. 1990, 1992, Scheer B. and Zimmer G. 1993, Serbinova E. et al. 1992).
