Definitions

  • the present invention relates, inter alia. the use of melanin synthesis inhibitors for the treatment of skin diseases, wherein the skin is additionally exposed to the radiation from an artificial radiation source. Furthermore, the present invention relates to cosmetic treatments, as well as cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations
  • Phototherapy also called light therapy
  • the fields of application here are very broad and include, for example, wound healing, the treatment of injuries, pain, the alleviation of side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
  • LEDs light emitting diodes
  • PDT photodynamic therapy
  • GB 2360461 discloses a flexible fabric used for PDT. Here, however, classic light sources are used, whereby the light is transmitted through optical fibers. The light sources are not suitable for non-stationary use. They are only suitable for use in medical facilities.
  • WO 93/21842 discloses a transportable device containing LEDs as a light source for phototherapy. However, this device is intended for outpatient therapy and is not suitable for mobile and / or private use.
  • Rochester et al. GB 24082092 discloses a flexible, medical light source containing LEDs and used for diagnostic purposes to check blood levels.
  • Vogle Klaus and Kallert Heiko disclose in EP 018180773 a device for irradiation of the skin.
  • the light source used is OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes).
  • the device can be installed in garments or patches.
  • OLEDs have several advantages over conventional light sources. Thus, OLEDs are not spotlights, but surface radiators. Furthermore, due to their structure, OLEDs allow the production of a very thin light source for use in phototherapy.
  • OLEDs in phototherapy, such as, the use of OLEDs to treat psoriasis, acne,
  • jaundice Skinfold aging, inflammation, wound healing or jaundice (jaundice), for example, the treatment of neonatal jaundice
  • OLEDs and other radiation sources with similar properties can be incorporated, for example, in plasters, bandages, garments, headgear, sleeping bags or blankets, so that phototherapy can even be carried out in parallel with private or professional activities and without significant restrictions ,
  • OLEDs also have positive psychological / emotional effects in the phototherapeutic treatment of neonatal jaundice in addition to the beneficial technical effects.
  • Newborn jaundice nonatal jaundice or neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, lat. Icterus neonatorum
  • Jaundice is caused by increased incorporation of bilirubin, a breakdown product of the red blood pigment hemoglobin, into the skin.
  • storage reaches its maximum on the fifth day of life and then gradually decreases. This is a natural process and mostly harmless.
  • the neonatal jaundice is not a medical one
  • liver of neonates especially the liver of preterm infants
  • a special enzyme is not or not produced in sufficient quantities.
  • This enzyme is the so-called glucuronyltransferase, which participates in the conversion of fat-soluble bilirubin into a water-soluble product.
  • a deficiency in the enzyme means that the fat-soluble bilirubin can not be eliminated via the bile or kidney and subsequently accumulates in the body.
  • a treatment by irradiation with blue light of wavelength 460 nm must be initiated in time to prevent the kernicterus.
  • the fat-soluble bilirubin is converted into a water-soluble product, which can be excreted via the bile and the kidneys.
  • infants are typically irradiated under classical blue-light lamps with light of a wavelength of 460 nm.
  • the neonates are often irradiated within an infant incubator, but in any case without close physical contact with the parents. Irradiation usually takes place in several units per day over a period of 2 to 14 days. In order to avoid damage to the retina, the eyes are connected here. In practice, therefore, the therapy repeatedly leads to an emotional stress situation for the child and the parents.
  • the use of OLEDs and similar sources of radiation in phototherapy can overcome at least some of the disadvantages of classical treatment of infants. So can the new light sources, for example, be used in blankets or sleeping bags, so that during the irradiation at least the direct physical contact between child and parent can be made.
  • the retina of the eye can be damaged by the high-energy light rays.
  • the high-energy light rays There are also increased
  • the advantage can also lie in a combination of both effects. It is therefore conceivable that one develops a phototherapy, in which the irradiation times are shortened, the effectiveness increased and also side effects can be reduced.

  • the skin lightening compounds have in common that they reduce the concentration of melanin in the skin.
  • Melanins are reddish, brown or black pigments, which are formed by the enzymatic oxidation of tyrosine and which cause the coloring of the skin, hair or eyes in humans. They continue to occur, for example, in other vertebrates, microorganisms and plants. Melanin is formed in vertebrates in the melanocytes of the skin and in the retina of the eye. The formation of melanins in the skin leads to a natural sunscreen.
