COMPOSIZIONI TOPICHE PER LA CURA DELLE LESIONI DEL CAVO ORALE TOPICAL COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF INJURIES OF THE ORAL CABLE

CAMPO DELL’INVENZIONE FIELD OF INVENTION

Composizioni odontostomatologiche per la cura delle affezioni del cavo orale comprendenti spermidina tal quale o in forma complessata. Odontostomatological compositions for the treatment of diseases of the oral cavity comprising spermidine as it is or in complexed form.

STATO DELL’ARTE STATE OF THE ART

Le forme infiammatorie ed infettive del cavo orale con coinvolgimento di mucose e gengive sono ampiamente diffuse nella popolazione a diversi livelli sociali, di età e di genere. Inflammatory and infectious forms of the oral cavity with involvement of mucous membranes and gums are widespread in the population at different social, age and gender levels.

La mucosite e le ulcere aftose sono patologie multifattoriali con assottigliamento epiteliale associato a intenso eritema, ulcera, dolore, sanguinamento e aumento del rischio infettivo. La stomatite à ̈ un’infiammazione diffusa delle mucose orali con eziologie diverse: infezioni, malattie sistemiche, stessogene o da agenti fisici. Infezioni collegate sono sostenute da batteri (es. Streptococchi), da virus (es. Herpes) o da funghi e lieviti (es. Candida spp), favorite dall’iposalivazione. Ulteriori cause di stomatite di tipo fisico sono causate da denti con bordi incongrui, apparecchi ortodontici, protesi dentali imprecise, bruxismo, morsicatura, abuso di alcol, fumo, spezie e cibi caldi, o stressogene. La sensibilizzazione verso farmaci, coloranti, metalli, dentifrici e collutori causa la sindrome di Stevens-Johnson, che rientra nelle stomatiti. La definizione mucosità si sovrappone sovente a quella di stomatite, dove la prima definisce più specificamente un infiammazione non-infettiva a carico della mucosa del cavo orale. Mucositis and aphthous ulcers are multifactorial diseases with epithelial thinning associated with intense erythema, ulcer, pain, bleeding and increased infectious risk. Stomatitis is a diffuse inflammation of the oral mucous membranes with different etiologies: infections, systemic, stress or physical diseases. Related infections are caused by bacteria (eg Streptococci), viruses (eg Herpes) or fungi and yeasts (eg Candida spp), favored by hyposalivation. Additional causes of physical stomatitis are caused by teeth with incongruous edges, orthodontic appliances, inaccurate dental prostheses, bruxism, biting, alcohol abuse, smoking, spices and hot foods, or stressors. Sensitization to drugs, dyes, metals, toothpastes and mouthwashes causes Stevens-Johnson syndrome, which is part of stomatitis. The definition of mucosity often overlaps with that of stomatitis, where the first defines more specifically a non-infectious inflammation of the mucous membrane of the oral cavity.

Nelle manifestazioni cliniche delle mucositi ritroviamo inizialmente atrofia delle mucose, quindi intenso eritema che evolve in ulcerazioni; le sedi più colpite sono le mucose non cheratinizzate: pavimento orale, mucose gengivali, mucose labiali e lingua. La mucosite orale à ̈ inoltre un effetto collaterale della chemioterapia e della radioterapia, diffusa nel 30-40% dei pazienti sottoposti chemio-radio terapia e fino all’80% dei pazienti sottoposti a trapianto di cellule staminali ematopoietiche. Gli effetti citotossici dei farmaci chemioterapici e delle radiazioni nei confronti dei tessuti ad elevato turnover, come l’epitelio orale sono responsabili di questa manifestazione che compromette in maniera importante la qualità di vita e può interferire con la gestione della malattia primaria. In the clinical manifestations of mucositis we initially find atrophy of the mucous membranes, then intense erythema which evolves into ulcerations; the sites most affected are the non-keratinized mucous membranes: oral floor, gingival mucosa, labial mucosa and tongue. Oral mucositis is also a side effect of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, widespread in 30-40% of patients undergoing chemo-radio therapy and up to 80% of patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The cytotoxic effects of chemotherapy drugs and radiation on high turnover tissues, such as the oral epithelium, are responsible for this manifestation which significantly compromises the quality of life and can interfere with the management of the primary disease.

La gengivite à ̈ la caratteristica infiammazione reversibile delle gengive, causata solitamente dalla placca batterica qualora trascurata. La stomatite ulcerativa à ̈ una forma acuta di gengivite con la formazione di ulcerazioni evidenti, molto dolorosa ed a volte curabile con terapia antibiotica e sciacqui con acqua ossigenata. Gingivitis is the characteristic reversible inflammation of the gums, usually caused by bacterial plaque if neglected. Ulcerative stomatitis is an acute form of gingivitis with the formation of evident ulcerations, very painful and sometimes treatable with antibiotic therapy and rinsing with hydrogen peroxide.

Nelle farmacie sono disponibili vari prodotti per il trattamento di stomatiti, afte e gengiviti, come illustrato da Pomponio G. in INFODENT, 2009 (4):37-9. La fonte cita in particolare: Aftamedâ„¢ (Bioplax Ltd) a base di sodio jaluronato; la linea Alovexâ„¢ (Ricordati) contenente aloe vera, jaluronato e acido glicirretinico; Collutorio Bier (Bier Farmaceutici) con clorexidina 0,20% e aloe vera 0,5%; OralMedicâ„¢ (Epien Medical) con l’ativo HybenXâ„¢; e Xentafidâ„¢ (Fidia Farmaceutici) con benzidamina jaluronato 0,13%. Various products are available in pharmacies for the treatment of stomatitis, canker sores and gingivitis, as illustrated by Pomponio G. in INFODENT, 2009 (4): 37-9. The source mentions in particular: Aftamedâ „¢ (Bioplax Ltd) based on sodium hyaluronate; the Alovexâ „¢ (Remember) line containing aloe vera, hyaluronate and glycyrrhetinic acid; Bier mouthwash (Bier Farmaceutici) with 0,20% chlorhexidine and 0,5% aloe vera; OralMedicâ „¢ (Epien Medical) with the active HybenXâ„ ¢; and Xentafidâ „¢ (Fidia Farmaceutici) with 0.13% benzydamine hyaluronate.

Se trascurata e non curata la gengiviteevolve in periodontite con distruzione del’osso fino a perdita del dente. La parodontite o periodontite à ̈ la conseguenza di gengiviti non curate che diffonde ai tessuti parodontali, legamenti e ossa che sostengono i denti con rischio di caduta. Il trattamento di elezione per le periodontiti sono i peptidi odontogenetici tipoEmdogainâ„¢. Tuttavia à ̈ ancora sentita la necessità di ottimizzare le proprietà terapeutiche di preparati attualmente utilizzati per le affezioni della mucosa orale. If neglected and untreated, gingivitis evolves into periodontitis with destruction of the bone and the loss of the tooth. Periodontitis or periodontitis is the consequence of untreated gingivitis that spreads to the periodontal tissues, ligaments and bones that support the teeth with the risk of falling. The treatment of choice for periodontitis is Emdogainâ „¢ type odontogenic peptides. However, the need is still felt to optimize the therapeutic properties of preparations currently used for affections of the oral mucosa.

Ad esempio studi recenti rilevano che le componenti infiammatorie ed infettive sono in grado di attivare le collagenasi nella mucosa. La loro azione degrada la matrice connettivale e favorisce l’ulterioredecorso erosivo-infiammatorio (Salvi GE e coll. J Clin Periodontol. For example, recent studies show that the inflammatory and infectious components are able to activate collagenases in the mucosa. Their action degrades the connective tissue matrix and favors the further erosive-inflammatory course (Salvi GE and coll. J Clin Periodontol.

2010;37(1):9-16) con aumento di MMP-3: L’aumentata espressione genica di MMP-2 e MMP-9 si correla con la cinetica di reclutamento di macrofago e neutrofili (Lorencini M e coll. Histol Histopathol. 2009;24(2):157-66). Nell’infezione orale sono stati identificati alcuni patogeni responsabili del ’ativazione di MMP-8 e MMP-9 quale risposta immunomediata a livello odontostomatologiche (Ramseier CA e coll. J Periodontol.2009;80(3):436-46). 2010; 37 (1): 9-16) with increased MMP-3: The increased gene expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 correlates with the recruitment kinetics of macrophages and neutrophils (Lorencini M et al. Histol Histopathol. 2009; 24 (2): 157-66). In the oral infection some pathogens have been identified responsible for the activation of MMP-8 and MMP-9 as an immune-mediated response at the odontostomatological level (Ramseier CA and coll. J Periodontol. 2009; 80 (3): 436-46) .

In questo senso abbiamo considerato le attività biologiche della spermidina, metabolita ubiquitario, per un efficace ed innovativo trattamento delle affezioni odontostomatologiche. L’analisi dela leteratura,tuttavia, non forniva alcuna indicazioni utile, cioà ̈ univocamente utilizzabile in tal senso. In this sense we have considered the biological activities of spermidine, a ubiquitous metabolite, for an effective and innovative treatment of odontostomatological diseases. The analysis of the literature, however, did not provide any useful information, that is, univocally usable in this sense.

Per esempio l’atività dela spermidina nei confronti delle collagenasi à ̈ assai controversa. Un primo lavoro evidenziava l’attivazione delle MMP in un classico modello angiogenico (Takigawa M e coll. Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 1990; 28; 171(3):1264-71). Al contrario altri studi correlano deplezione di poliammine con l’incremento del ’espressione di MMP-1 e -2, ad es. in fibroblasti gengivali (Stabellini G e coll. J Periodontol. 2005; 76(3):443-9) o in cellule renali canine (Prunotto M e coll. Lab Invest.2010; 90(6):929-39). Gli studi citati disorientano sia per risultati che per il metodo, in quanto non sono misurate l’azione direta ma gli efeti di sostanze interferenti con il metabolismo della spermidina. Ugualmente controverse sono la capacità della spermidina di favorire la crescita cellulare, che risulterebbero utili nella riparazione di mucose e tessuti orali affetti da lesioni. Difatti parte della letteratura indica un ruolo positivo pro-mitotico e rigenerativo della spermidina; mentre un’altrettanto se non superiore mole di ricerche segnala viceversa un comportamento pro-apoptotico e persino citotossico. A questo scopo si citano i riferimenti dal numero 13 al 29 citati in bibliografa da Kaneko S e coll. in Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci.2007; 48(1):455-63. A fine di sviluppare una composizione efficace e mirata al trattamento delle affezioni del cavo orale, per le quali sussiste un bisogno terapeutico fortemente sentito, risultano decisivi gli studi ed i modelli dose-attività citati nella presente applicazione. For example, the activity of spermidine against collagenases is highly controversial. A first work highlighted the activation of MMPs in a classic angiogenic model (Takigawa M et al. Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 1990; 28; 171 (3): 1264-71). On the contrary, other studies correlate polyamine depletion with the increase in the expression of MMP-1 and -2, eg. in gingival fibroblasts (Stabellini G et al. J Periodontol. 2005; 76 (3): 443-9) or in canine kidney cells (Prunotto M et al. Lab Invest. 2010; 90 (6): 929-39). The studies cited are confusing both for results and for the method, as the direct action is not measured but the effects of substances interfering with the metabolism of spermidine. Equally controversial are the ability of spermidine to promote cell growth, which would be useful in the repair of oral mucous membranes and tissues affected by lesions. In fact, part of the literature indicates a positive pro-mitotic and regenerative role of spermidine; while an equally if not greater amount of research indicates, on the contrary, a pro-apoptotic and even cytotoxic behavior. For this purpose, references from numbers 13 to 29 cited in the bibliographic by Kaneko S and coll. in Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2007; 48 (1): 455-63. In order to develop an effective and targeted composition for the treatment of diseases of the oral cavity, for which there is a strongly felt therapeutic need, the studies and dose-activity models mentioned in this application are decisive.

DESCRIZIONE DETTAGLIATA DELL’INVENZIONE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Le composizioni odontostomatologiche, cosmetiche o medicali comprendenti spermidina secondo l’invenzione risultano eficaci nel tratamento dele affezioni del cavo orale quali stomatiti, mucositi, afte, gengiviti e periodontiti. The odontostomatological, cosmetic or medical compositions comprising spermidine according to the invention are effective in treating affections of the oral cavity such as stomatitis, mucositis, canker sores, gingivitis and periodontitis.

I modelli di inibizione diretta della collagenasi e di azione stimolante-proliferativa dei fibroblasti mucosali, gengivali e/o su odontoblasti nonché un utilizzo preliminare in vivo riportati indicano per la prima volta chiaramente ed in maniera univoca l’utilità inventiva di dette composizioni. The models of direct collagenase inhibition and stimulating-proliferative action of mucosal, gingival and / or odontoblast fibroblasts as well as a preliminary in vivo use reported clearly and unambiguously indicate for the first time the inventive usefulness of said compositions.

La spermidina utilizzabile nelle composizioni inventive à ̈ la sostanza di struttura: NH2(CH2)3NH(CH2)4NH2, formula C7H19N3; alias N-(3-aminopropil)-1,4-butanediammina. La spermidina risulta essere un principio attivo facilmente incorporabile nelle formulazioni tipiche per il trattamento delle affezioni della mucosa del cavo orale e relativamente stabile, con l’accortezza di non aggiungere sostanze ossidanti quali H2O2o NaClO. Per un corretto utilizzo inventivo di questo principio attivo à ̈ importante il dosaggio locale. The spermidine usable in the inventive compositions is the structural substance: NH2 (CH2) 3NH (CH2) 4NH2, formula C7H19N3; aka N- (3-aminopropyl) -1,4-butanediamine. Spermidine is an active ingredient that can be easily incorporated into the typical formulations for the treatment of diseases of the mucous membrane of the oral cavity and is relatively stable, taking care not to add oxidizing substances such as H2O2 or NaClO. For a correct inventive use of this active ingredient, the local dosage is important.

Una composizione inventiva conterrà spermidina in forma salificata in concentrazione tra circa 200 Î1⁄4M a 2 nM (da 30 ppm a 0,3 ppb su base libera), ancora più preferibilmente compresa tra circa 20Î1⁄4M a 200 nM (da 3 ppm a 30 ppb) della composizione. An inventive composition will contain spermidine in salified form in a concentration between about 200 Î1⁄4M to 2 nM (from 30 ppm to 0.3 ppb on a free basis), even more preferably between about 20Î1⁄4M to 200 nM (from 3 ppm to 30 ppb) of the composition.

In un’ulteriore realizzazione le composizioni conteranno un complesso supramolacolare di spermidina (meglio definito di seguito) in grado di rilasciare una quantità di spermidina compresa tra 4x10<-7>e 4x10<-9>moli/ora/g di prodotto applicato. In a further embodiment, the compositions will contain a supramolacular complex of spermidine (better defined below) capable of releasing a quantity of spermidine between 4x10 <-7> and 4x10 <-9> moles / hour / g of applied product.

In questo ambito una composizione inventiva potrà contenere spermidina complessata in concentrazione 10x, cioà ̈ tra 2 mM e 20 nM (da 300 ppm a 3 ppb di base libera), preferibilmente tra circa 200Î1⁄4M a 2Î1⁄4M (da 30 ppm a 300 ppb) della composizione. In this context, an inventive composition may contain complexed spermidine in 10x concentration, i.e. between 2 mM and 20 nM (from 300 ppm to 3 ppb of free base), preferably between about 200Î1⁄4M to 2Î1⁄4M (from 30 ppm to 300 ppb) of the composition.

Nel caso di complessi supramolecolari con polimeri polianionici sono preferiti quelli con rapporti eq.anionici/eq.cationicicompresi tra 10:1 e 10<5>:1. In the case of supramolecular complexes with polyanionic polymers, those with anionic / cationic equation ratios comprised between 10: 1 and 10 <5>: 1 are preferred.

Come citato la spermidina à ̈ utilizzabile in forma salificata o di complessi supramolacolari. Esempio di forme salificate sono quelli formati da spermidina con acidi inorganici quali HCl, H2SO4, H3BO3, H3PO4, ecc., o con acidi organici quali acido acetico, metilensolfonico, ascorbico, laurico, oleico, glicolico, lattico, piruvico, mandelico, succinico, aspartico, glutamico, maleico, fumarico, malico, tartarico, ecc. In caso di utilizzo di spermidina base, i sali sono formati in situ con le sostanze a carattere acido presenti nella composizione As mentioned, spermidine can be used in salified form or in supramolacular complexes. Example of salified forms are those formed by spermidine with inorganic acids such as HCl, H2SO4, H3BO3, H3PO4, etc., or with organic acids such as acetic, methylene sulphonic, ascorbic, lauric, oleic, glycolic, lactic, pyruvic, mandelic, succinic acids, aspartic, glutamic, maleic, fumaric, malic, tartaric, etc. When using spermidine base, the salts are formed in situ with the acidic substances present in the composition

In una realizzazione i complessi supramolacolari di spermidina sono formati con polimeri polianionici, cioà ̈ polimeri anionici come carbossilati, solfati/solfonati, fosfati/fosfonati. In one embodiment the spermidine supramolacular complexes are formed with polyanionic polymers, i.e. anionic polymers such as carboxylates, sulfates / sulfonates, phosphates / phosphonates.

ESEMPI EXAMPLES

Esempio 1–Inibizione della collagenasi Example 1â € “Inhibition of collagenase

Il metodo di Mandl e coll. (J Clin Invest.1953, 32, 1323) modificato à ̈ la base di questo test. Campioni con collagenasi sono incubati per 2, 4 e 24 ore con collagene nativo. Il grado di degradazione à ̈ determinato per colorimetria con ninidrina come descritto da Moore & Stein (Biol Chem.. 1948, 176, 367). Gli amminoacidi liberati sono espressi come Î1⁄4moli di leucina per mg collagenase. Un unità equivale aÎ1⁄4mole di L-leucina eq. di collagene a 37°C e pH 7,5. Per ciascun campione si prepara una provetta con 5 mg di collagene nativo e 1 ml di TES 0,05M pH 7.5, si scalda a 37°C, si aggiungono 0,1 ml di campione e si pone a 37°C per 5 ore. Dopo incubazione 0,2 ml della miscela di reazione (escludendo il collagene intero) à ̈ trasferito in 1 ml di ninidrina, soluz. 2% e posto in bagno maria a bollore per 20 minuti. La miscela raffreddata à ̈ diluita in 50% n-propanolo, lasciato a riposo per 15 minuti e letto a 570 nm. L’atività colagenasica à ̈ calcolata per interpolazione del dato ottenuto su curva standard ottenuta con quantità scalari di unità collagenasi. I risultati sono illustrati in Tabella I. The method of Mandl et al. (J Clin Invest. 1953, 32, 1323) modified is the basis of this test. Collagenase samples are incubated for 2, 4 and 24 hours with native collagen. The degree of degradation is determined by colorimetry with ninhydrin as described by Moore & Stein (Biol Chem .. 1948, 176, 367). The released amino acids are expressed as Î1⁄4moles of leucine per mg collagenase. One unit is equivalent to Î1⁄4mole of L-leucine eq. of collagen at 37 ° C and pH 7.5. For each sample, prepare a test tube with 5 mg of native collagen and 1 ml of TES 0.05M pH 7.5, heat to 37 ° C, add 0.1 ml of sample and place at 37 ° C for 5 hours. After incubation 0.2 ml of the reaction mixture (excluding whole collagen) is transferred into 1 ml of ninhydrin, solut. 2% and place in a bain-marie to boil for 20 minutes. The cooled mixture is diluted in 50% n-propanol, left to rest for 15 minutes and read at 570 nm. The cholagenase activity is calculated by interpolation of the data obtained on a standard curve obtained with scalar quantities of collagenase units. The results are shown in Table I.

Si evidenzia un comportamento concentrazione-dipendente rispetto al ’atività di inibizione delle collagenasi attivate dai processi infiammatori ed infettivi nel cavo orale. Pur essendo significativi, i dati necessitano di ulteriore verifica su collagenasi tipizzate nello spettro di concentrazioni utili inoltre in presenza di complessi supramolecolari. There is a concentration-dependent behavior with respect to the inhibition activity of collagenases activated by inflammatory and infectious processes in the oral cavity. Although significant, the data require further verification on typed collagenases in the spectrum of useful concentrations also in the presence of supramolecular complexes.

Esempio 2–Capacità di riproliferazione della spermidina Example 2â € “Repoliferation capacity of spermidine

Il modello per la valutazione della performance riparatrice à ̈ un test di proliferazione di fibroblasti primari. I terreni di coltura con le sostanze test sono aggiunti ai pozzetti contenenti fibroblasti in fase G0, esposti a 24 e 48 ore, con sostituzione del terreno di coltura a 24 h. Al termine si esegue il test MTT per valutare vitalità ed incremento della popolazione cellulare. Il sale di tetrazolio MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5diphenyltetrazolium bromide) si prepara in situ aggiungendo 15 mg di MMT a 30 mL di terreno di coltura à ̈ ridotto a sale di formazano dalla succinato deidrogenasi mitocondriale e dalle deidrogenasi citoplasmatiche. Dopo esposizione, le cellule sono sciacquate con 200 µL di PBS. Successivamente la soluzione di lavaggio à ̈ rimossa e sono aggiunti a ogni pozzetto 200 µL di medium con MTT; le cellule sono incubate per 4 ore a 37°C e 5% di CO2. Quindi il medium con MTT à ̈ rimosso e si aggiungono 200 µl di una soluzione solvente l’MTTcostituita da 10% Triton X-100 e 0,1 N di HCl in isopropanolo. La piastra à ̈ posta su agitatore rotante per 20-30’ a formare una soluzione omogenea, con lettura a 570 nm (background a 690 nm). The model for the assessment of restorative performance is a primary fibroblast proliferation test. The culture media with the test substances are added to the wells containing fibroblasts in the G0 phase, exposed at 24 and 48 hours, with replacement of the culture medium at 24 hours. At the end, the MTT test is performed to evaluate viability and increase of the cell population. MTT tetrazolium salt (3- (4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl) -2,5diphenyltetrazolium bromide) is prepared in situ by adding 15 mg of MMT to 30 mL of culture medium is reduced to formazan salt from succinate mitochondrial dehydrogenases and cytoplasmic dehydrogenases. After exposure, the cells are rinsed with 200 µL of PBS. Subsequently the washing solution is removed and 200 µL of medium with MTT are added to each well; cells are incubated for 4 hours at 37 ° C and 5% CO2. Then the medium with MTT is removed and 200 µl of a solvent solution the MTT consisting of 10% Triton X-100 and 0.1 N of HCl in isopropanol are added. The plate is placed on a rotating shaker for 20-30 'to form a homogeneous solution, with reading at 570 nm (background at 690 nm).

I risultati espressi come % di vitalità cellulare su fibroblasti primari rispetto al controllo non trattato espressi come valore medio di prova in quintuplicato sono riportati nella tabella II. TABELLA II The results expressed as% of cell viability on primary fibroblasts compared to the untreated control expressed as mean test value in five times are reported in Table II. TABLE II

10 nM 31,86% 35,96% 10 nM 31.86% 35.96%

I risultati evidenziano un comportamento bimodale in funzione della concentrazione di spermidina, favorevole a partire da concentrazioni del’ordine micromolari ed aumento fino alle concentrazioni nanomolari. The results show a bimodal behavior as a function of the spermidine concentration, favorable starting from micromolar concentrations and increasing up to nanomolar concentrations.

Tenendo in conto l’efeto di diluizione nel’applicazione in vivo, tali dati sono comunque indicativi per la determinazione del dosaggio utile. Si à ̈ in pratica dimostrato univocamente che a tali dosaggi la spermidina risulta efficace e compatibile sia con l’azione di blocco della degenerazione tissutale causata dal’ativazione infiammatoria sia con il concomitante effetto di ripopolazione dello strato epiteliale depauperato della mucosa orale. Taking into account the dilution effect in the in vivo application, these data are however indicative for the determination of the useful dosage. In practice, it has been unequivocally demonstrated that at these dosages spermidine is effective and compatible both with the blocking action of tissue degeneration caused by inflammatory activation and with the concomitant effect of repopulating the depleted epithelial layer of the oral mucosa.
