A pharmaceutical composition includes a combination of eicosapentaenoic acid and/or docosahexaenoic acid together with one or more of dihomo- gamma -linolenic acid, cis-linoleic acid and gamma -linolenic acid. This particular combination of fatty acids may also be administered in the form of a food product such as margarine or cooking oil. The composition causes lowering of blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The fatty acids used in this composition may be separated from mixtures thereof or from natural sources thereof by iodinating the double bonds in the starting fat or oil, saponifying, extracting the iodinated fatty acids, methylating and separating by column chromatography, and then deiodinating.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Combined Fatty Acid Composition for Lowering Blood Cholesterol and Triglyceride Levels
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and food products, and more particularly, to such compositions or food products containing a specific combination of fatty acids which can be used for the treatment of a human being or other mammal in order to lowerthe blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels of the subject.
Background of the Invention
It is known that Greenland Eskimos rarely suffer from atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. This fact has been attributed to the consumption of high amounts of fish oil. The active ingredients in fish oil are (al l-Z)-5,8,1 1,14,1 7-eicosapentaenoic acid, sometimes designated 20: 5to3 fatty acid (hereinafter referred to as "EPA") and (all-Z)-4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid, sometimes designated 26:6w3 fatty acid (hereinafter referred to as "DHA"). EPA and DHA are known to be precursors in the biosynthesis of the prostaglandin PGE3.
The above alternate designations, such as 20:5w3, refer to the total number of carbon atoms in the chain, before the colon; the number of unsaturated bonds, after the colon; and the number of carbon atoms from the end opposite the carboxylic acid at which the first unsaturation appears, following the omega.
Members of a given omega series of fatty acids, e.g. (ss3, can usually be converted to acids of differing lengths and total number of unsaturations by normal bodily enzymes, but it is generally impossible to change a compound from one omega series to another, e.g. a)3 to co6. This is because bodily enzymes generally cause changes of length and unsaturation to occur starting from the carboxylic acid end of the chain.
It is disclosed in British patents 1,604,554 and 2,033,745 that EPA can be used to treat effectively, or provide effective prophylaxis against, thromboembolic conditions such as myocardial infarctions, strokes, or deep vein thrombosis during surgical operations. They disclose the extraction of EPA from fish oil, such as cod liver oil or-menhaden oil. The EPA may be administered by replacing butter or ordinary margarine by a special margarine formulated so that in normal usage the recipient would receive the required amount of the EPA.
This process has not achieved widespread attention, despite the fact that it uses a natural substance which can readily be incorporated into the daily diet. One reason may be due to the difficulty of efficiently separating EPA from natural fish oils to obtain a pure product at reasonable cost. Another reason may be that the effects of administration of EPA are not as dramatic as had been anticipated.
Summary of the Invention
It is an object of the present invention to eliminate the above-discussed deficiencies in the prior art.
It is another object of the present invention to provide improvements in compositions. of the type of
British patents 1,604,554 and 2,033,745.
It is a further object ofthe present invention to provide a composition which has superior therapeutic effects compared to those of the prior art.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a therapeutic composition containing naturally obtainable fatty acids which will serve to reduce blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a therapeutic composition which will increase the PGE1 : PGE2 ratio in the patient and increase the absolute amount of PGE1 in the system.
These and other objects are obtained through the simultaneous administration of one or more of EPA and DHA, together with one or more of dihomo-y-linolenic acid (8,1 1,14-eicosatrienoic acid), i.e., 20:3co6 fatty acid, (hereinafter referred to as "DHLA"), cis-linoleic acid ((Z,Z)-9,12-octadecadienoic acid), i.e., 18:2co6 fatty acid, and y-linolenic acid, ((Z,Z,Z-6,9,1 2-octadecatrienoic acid), i.e., 18:3w6 fatty acid, either in the form of a pharmaceutical dosage or in the form of a food product such as margarine or cooking oil, or in the form of skin ointments or lotions for topical administration.
Detailed Description of Preferred Embodiments
The prostaglandins are a family of substances showing a wide diversity of biological effects.
Prostaglandins of the 1-, 2-and 3-series, respectively, incorporate one, two or three double bonds in their basic 20-carbon carboxylic fatty acid structure which includes a 5-member cyclopentene ring.
The 1-series of prostaglandins are strong vasodilators and inhibit cholesterol and collagen biosynthesis, as well as platelet aggregation. On the other hand the 2-series prostaglandins are known to enhance platelet aggregation, cholesterol and collagen biosynthesis, and also to enhance endothelial cell proliferation. The main effect of the 3-series prostaglandins, particularly PIES, is the suppression of the 2-series prostaglandins.
The precursor of the 2-series prostaglandins is arachidonic acid ((all Z)-5,8,11,14eicosatetraenoic acid), i.e., 20:4w6 fatty acid. DHLA is the precursor for the 1-series prostaglandins, and, as indicated hereinabove,
EPA and DHA are the precursors for the 3-series prostaglandins.
It is believed that the effectiveness of EPA and DHA in preventing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases lies both in their effect as a precursor for prostaglandin PGE3, which suppresses the 2-series prostaglandins, as well as the fact that the EPA and/or DHA itself competes with arachidonic acid on the same enzymatic system and thus inhibits the biosynthesis of 2-series prostaglandins. This inhibition of the 2-series prostaglandins results in an increase of the ratio of PGE, :PGE2.
In order to improve the effects of the administration of EPA and/or DHA alone, by further increasing the PGE, :PGE2 ratio, as well as effecting an increase in the absolute amount of PGE, in the system, DHLA should be administered simultaneously with the pure EPA and/or DHA. Since cis-linoleic acid and y-linolenic acid both form DHLA metabolically within the body, either or both of these fatty acids may be substituted, in whole or in part, for DHLA.
It has been found that the combination of EPA (and/or DHA) and DHLA (and/or cis-linolenic acid and/or -linolenic acid) causes a substantial reduction in blood cholesterol and triglycerides. Recent research has definitely linked blood cholesterol levels with incidence of coronary heart disease (JAMA, 251,351-364 (1984) and JAMA 251, 365374 (1984)). Additionally, it is expected that such a combination will have other beneficial therapeutic properties. For example, it is known that in schizophrenia, rheumatoid arthritis and other callagen and auto-immune diseases, as well as in some forms of cancer, there are evidences of extremely low levels of PGE, and high levels of PGE2.Thus, it is expected that the combination ofthe present invention may be able to serve as an effective treatment for such conditions. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory effect of cortico-steroids and the pain killing effect of aspirin are believed to be due to their suppressing effect of PGE2 formation. Thus, the use of the combination of the present invention can be expected to be a natural and most effective anti-inflammatory pain killing agent.
The dose of the composition of the present invention, comprising a combination of EPA (and/or DHA) and DHLA (and/or cis-linoleic acid and/or y-linolenic acid), needed for therapeutic or prophylactic effect will vary with the route of administration and the nature of the condition being treated, but will generally be at least 1 gram, preferably from 1.5 to 3 grams, per day. This is the dose for an average 70 kg man, and the dose for other men or animals will vary pro rata according to their weight, i.e. about 2040 mg/kg.
The relative amounts of EPA (and/or DHA) and DHLA (and/or cis-linoleic acid and/or y-linolenic acid) in the composition of the present invention is preferably 1:1, although the ratio may vary from 3:1 to 1:3.
The EPA (and/or DHA) and DHLA (and/or cis-linoleic acid and/or y-linolenic acid) need not be administered as the acids themselves but may be used as their pharmaceuticaily acceptable salts, esters or amides. Esters or amides which can be converted in vivo to the acid and other pharmaceutically acceptable products may be used, the preferred ester being the ethyl ester. The preferred salts are the sodium or potassium salts, or any other pharmaceutically acceptable solid salt, as these are suitable for making into tabiets.
While it is preferred to administer the composition of the present invention orally, as this is a convenient route for routine administration, the active compounds may be administered by any route by which it may be successfully absorbed, e.g., parenterally (i.e. subcutaneously, intramuscularly or intravenously), rectallyorvaginaly, or topically, for example as a skin ointment or lotion.
While it is possible for the active compounds to be administered as such, as a simple mixture of components, it is preferable to present them as a pharmaceutical formulation. The formulations, both for veterinary and for human medical use, of the present invention comprise the active compounds as defined, together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers therefor and, optionally, other therapeutic ingredients, although other unsaturated fatty acids should be avoided, particularly arachidonic acid.The carrier(s) must be "pharmaceuticaliy acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients oftheformulations and not deleterious to the recipientthereof. Formulations include those suitable for oral, rectal, vaginal, intrapulmonary or parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous) administration. Formulations for oral administration, such as tablets or capsules are preferred.
The EPA (and/or DHA) - DHLA (and or cis-linoleic acid and/or y-linolenic acid) combination may also be administered by replacing better and/or ordinary margarine by a special margarine, e.g. of the emulsion type, formulated so that in normal usage the recipient would receive the required amount of the combination. Cooking oils and fats may also be similarly formulated to contain the composition of the present invention.
The EPA (and/or DHA) and DHLA (and/or cis-linoleic acid and/or y-linolenic acid) used in the compositions of the present invention should be as pure as possible. EPA and/or DHA cannot be used in the form of fish oil directly, as the use of the amount of fish oil necessary in order to provide the desired amount of EPA and/or DHA would provide excessive calories and potentially toxic amounts of vitamins A and D.
Thus, pure EPA and/or DHA should be extracted from the fish oil. The presence of unsaturated fatty acids other than EPA, DHA, DHLA, cis-linoleic acid and y-linolenic acid should be avoided.
Substantially pure EPA and/or DHA may be extracted from fish oil, such as cod liver oil, by means of the process set forth, for example, in U.S. Patent 4,377,526. Alternatively, the separation may be accomplished by a novel process of the present applicant involving iodination of the double bonds of the unsaturated fatty acids in the starting fat or oil. Such iodination permits protection of the fatty acids from oxidation during further processing, and increases the resolution of the fatty acids upon eventual column and chromatography. After iodination, the fat or oil is saponified and the iodinated fatty acid extracted from the saponification mixture. The iodinated fatty acids are then methylated and separated by column chromatography, after which the desired fractions are deiodinated.This process can be used not only for the separation of EPA and DHA from fish oils, but also for the separation and extraction of other unsaturated fatty acids, such as a-linolenic acid and y-linolenic acid from the triglyceride forms in which they naturally occur in, for example, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, oil of evening primrose, etc. The separation of any unsaturated fatty acid can be facilitated by means of the present iodination process.
The starting material in the present process can be a natural fat or fatty oil in which the first step is iodination followed by saponification. However, the starting material may also be any mixture of unsaturated fatty acids which are difficult to separate, in which the first step will be iodination but no saponification will be required as the starting material is not a triglyceride.
lodination takes place by adding iodine, in an organic solvent, preferably 20% ethanolic solution, slowly to the starting material until the color fails to disappear in the starting material. This reaction takes place at room temperature under continuous stirring.
The saponification step can take place in any conventional manner such as, for example, with a 20% ethanolic solution of KOH for two hours.
The iodinated fatty acid is extracted from the saponification mixture by means of any conventional procedure, for example, extraction with ether.
The next step is the methylation of the iodinated fatty acids to prepare them for column chromatography. Again, this is a conventional step and may be done, for example, with 5% hydrogen chloride in methanol.
Finally, the fatty acids are separated by means of column chromatography. The column chromatography is carried out in a known manner with a conventional elution mixture. While resolution among the various fatty acids is very poor in the conventional processes, the resolution is greatly improved when the fatty acids are iodinated at the time of column chromatography. The column may be packed with silica gel as is conventional and the elution solution may be any conventional solution, such as hexane-ether-acetic acid (85-10-5).
After the fractions are obtained from the column, the fatty acids are deiodinated using, for example, silver nitrate.
While specific reagents and process conditions are set forth for the various steps of the present process, it should be understood that those skilled in the art will readily be aware of other reagents and conditions in order to carry out the steps once the desirability of each step is known. The critical factor is the concept of iodination prior to chromatography in order to increase the resolution and to protect the fatty acids from oxidation.
Furthermore, although the separation is accomplished by column chromatography in the above description, it should be understood that other means of separation may be used as, for example, high speed centrifugation. The resolution will also be improved by iodination in such other separation means.
The following is an example of a method for the separation of EPA and DHA from cod liver oil in accordance with this process.
Preparative Example
A 20% ethanolic solution of iodine is added slowly to 300 g of cod liver oil. The iodine is added as long as its color disappears in the oil. The reaction takes place at room temperature under continuous stirring.
When iodination is completed, the iodinated oily solution is saponified with 20% ethanolic solution of KOH for two hours. The iodinated fatty acid, 260 g, is extracted with ease from the saponification mixture.
The iodinated fatty acids are then methylated with 5% hydrogen chloride in methanol. The EPA and the
DHA are separated by column chromatography (silica-gel 1,500 g, Kieselgel 70230 mesh, Merck). The elution is done with 5 liters hexane-ether-acetic acid (85-10-5). The first fraction to be extracted is the iodinated DHA. The second fraction is iodinated EPA.
Once the substantially pure methylated and iodinated fatty acid mixture is obtained, it may also be separated by other conventional techniques, such as high speed centrifugation or distillation. Deiodination takes place by shaking the iodinated Me-DHA and Me-EPA, separately, with 10% aqueous solutions of silver nitrate. Precipitates of silver-iodine appears and the organic phases are separated. The same procedure is repeated until no more precipitation occurs. Microanalysis, HPLC and NMR proved that the desired products are obtained. The yield is above 90%, the purity 96100%.There is no need to carry out the procedure under nitrogen since the fatty acids are saturated with iodine, thus preventing oxidation from taking place.
The following clinical tests illustrate the synergistic effects which are obtained when using the combination of the present invention as compared to the effects of each of the components administered alone.
Therapeutic Example
Thirty-six outpatients, ages 3575, males and females, were divided into three groups of twelve. Each group added to their normal diet 5 cc/day of free fatty acids for 45 days. Group I added 5 cc/day of substantially pure EPA. Group II added to their diet 5 cc/day of substantially pure cis-linoleic acid, and group
III added to their diet 3 cc/day of substantially pure EPA and 2 cc/day of substantially pure cis-linoleic acid.
By the term "substantially pure" is meant a purity of about 96100% 00%.
Blood cholesterol and triglycerides were tested one day before the treatment began and after 45 days ol treatment. The results of these treatments are set forth in Tables I, II and Ill hereinbelow:

While the administration of 5 cc/day of EPA alone provided a reduction in serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels during the 45 days of treatment, i.e. an average reduction of 11.2% for total cholesterol and 15% for triglycerides, the effect of the administration of pure cis-linoleic acid alone for 45 days is almost insignificant. In fact, in many patients the cholesterol level actually rose.
A definite synergism, however, is observed by administration of the combination of 3 cc EPA plus 2 cc cis-linoleic acid per day. By use of the combination, a very significant reduction of serum cholesterol (an average of 19.3% decrease) and serum triglycerides (an average of 40.5% decrease) is observed.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention and the invention is not to be considered limited to what is described in the specification.
