Description

本発明は、皮膚の荒れ、シワ、弾性低下等を防止するのに有用な皮膚コラーゲン産生促進剤、皮膚コラーゲン産生促進用飲食品及び皮膚コラーゲン産生促進用化粧料に関する。さらに詳しくは、本発明は、乳タンパク質画分及び/または、その乳タンパク質画分の分解物を有効成分とする皮膚コラーゲン産生促進剤に関する。   The present invention relates to a skin collagen production promoter, a food and drink for promoting skin collagen production, and a cosmetic for promoting skin collagen production, which are useful for preventing rough skin, wrinkles, a decrease in elasticity, and the like. More specifically, the present invention relates to a skin collagen production promoter containing a milk protein fraction and / or a degradation product of the milk protein fraction as an active ingredient.

近年、皮膚のメカニズムに関する研究が進められ、皮膚の乾燥感や肌荒れの原因としてマクロ的には、加齢による新陳代謝の減衰によるもののほかに、太陽光(紫外線)、乾燥、酸化等の作用が複雑に関与していることが確認されてきた。これらの因子による作用によって、真皮の最も主要なマトリックス成分であるコラーゲン繊維が顕著に減少していることが明らかとなってきた。コラーゲン繊維によって保たれていた皮膚のハリや弾力性といった張力保持機構が紫外線等の作用によって破壊されると、皮膚はシワやたるみを増した状態になる。また、コラーゲンはその分子中に水分を保持することができ、それにより、皮膚をしっとりとした状態に保つことにも役立っているから、外的因子により、コラーゲンが破壊されると肌は、乾燥し、荒れた状態になる。以上のことから、真皮層の主要な成分の一つであるコラーゲンの生合成を促進させることにより、皮膚のシワやたるみを防止でき、しかも安全性の点でも問題のない皮膚コラーゲン産生促進剤が望まれていた。   In recent years, research on the mechanism of the skin has progressed, and macroscopically, the effects of sunlight (ultraviolet rays), drying, oxidation, etc. are complicated in addition to the deterioration of metabolism due to aging as a cause of skin dryness and rough skin. Has been confirmed to be involved. It has been clarified that collagen fibers, which are the main matrix components of the dermis, are significantly reduced by the action of these factors. When the tension retention mechanism such as skin elasticity and elasticity held by the collagen fibers is broken by the action of ultraviolet rays, the skin becomes wrinkled and sagging. Collagen can also retain moisture in its molecules, thereby helping to keep the skin moist, and when the collagen is destroyed by external factors, the skin becomes dry. And it becomes rough. From the above, it is possible to prevent skin wrinkles and sagging by promoting the biosynthesis of collagen, which is one of the main components of the dermis layer, and there is no problem in terms of safety. It was desired.

皮膚コラーゲン促進作用を有する物質としては、乳中に存在する塩基性タンパク質画分あるいはその塩基性タンパク質画分をタンパク質分解酵素で分解して得られる塩基性ペプチド画分(特許文献1)や、ラクトフェリンあるいはラクトフェリンをタンパク質分解酵素で分解して得られるラクトフェリン分解物(特許文献2)、ラクトパーオキシダーゼあるいはラクトパーオキシダーゼをタンパク質分解酵素で分解して得られるラクトパーオキシダーゼ分解物(特許文献3)、アンジオジェニンあるいはアンジオジェニンをタンパク質分解酵素で分解して得られるアンジオジェニン分解物(特許文献4)が既に知られている。   Examples of substances having a skin collagen promoting action include a basic protein fraction present in milk or a basic peptide fraction obtained by degrading the basic protein fraction with a proteolytic enzyme (Patent Document 1), lactoferrin Alternatively, a lactoferrin degradation product obtained by degrading lactoferrin with a proteolytic enzyme (Patent Document 2), lactoperoxidase or a lactoperoxidase degradation product obtained by degrading lactoperoxidase with a proteolytic enzyme (Patent Document 3), angio An angiogenin degradation product obtained by degrading genin or angiogenin with a proteolytic enzyme (Patent Document 4) is already known.

本発明の皮膚コラーゲン産生促進剤は、(a)乳由来であること、(b)ソディウムドデシルサルフェート−ポリアクリルアミドゲル(SDS-PAGE)電気泳動で、分子量75,000から80,000ダルトンの範囲のタンパク質を含有する画分であること、(c)構成アミノ酸組成中に塩基性アミノ酸を13から15重量%含有し、かつ、塩基性アミノ酸/酸性アミノ酸比が0.5から0.7の範囲であること、の3つの条件を全て満たす乳タンパク質画分か、あるいは当該乳タンパク質画分の分解物を有効成分とする。このような乳タンパク質画分は、例えば、脱脂乳や乳清等の乳原料を陽イオン交換樹脂と接触させて、0.2Mの食塩溶液で洗浄後、この樹脂に吸着した乳タンパク質を0.35Mの食塩溶出液で溶出して得ることができる。なお、塩類としては、食塩の他カリウム塩、アンモニア塩、リン酸塩、酢酸塩、炭酸塩等を使用することができ、洗浄液のイオン強度を0.15〜0.25、溶出溶液のイオン強度を0.3〜0.4に適宜調整して、本発明の乳タンパク質画分を得ることができる。また、この溶出画分を回収し、逆浸透(RO)膜や電気透析(ED)法等により脱塩及び濃縮し、必要に応じて乾燥することにより得ることができる。逆浸透(RO)膜としては、Desal-3(Desalination社製)、HR-95(Dow Danmark社製)、NTR-729HF(日東電工社製)等を例示することができる。また、電気透析(ED)装置は、ユアサアイオニクス社や日本錬水社製の電気透析装置を例示できる。   The skin collagen production promoter of the present invention is (a) derived from milk, and (b) sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE) electrophoresis. A fraction containing protein, (c) 13 to 15% by weight of basic amino acids in the constituent amino acid composition, and a basic amino acid / acidic amino acid ratio in the range of 0.5 to 0.7 The active ingredient is a milk protein fraction that satisfies all three conditions, or a degradation product of the milk protein fraction. Such a milk protein fraction is prepared by, for example, bringing milk material such as skim milk or whey into contact with a cation exchange resin, washing it with a 0.2 M salt solution, and then adding 0. It can be obtained by elution with a 35M salt eluate. As salts, potassium salt, ammonia salt, phosphate, acetate, carbonate, etc. can be used in addition to sodium chloride, the ionic strength of the washing solution is 0.15 to 0.25, and the ionic strength of the elution solution Can be appropriately adjusted to 0.3 to 0.4 to obtain the milk protein fraction of the present invention. Further, this elution fraction can be collected, desalted and concentrated by reverse osmosis (RO) membrane, electrodialysis (ED) method or the like, and dried if necessary. Examples of the reverse osmosis (RO) membrane include Desal-3 (manufactured by Desalination), HR-95 (manufactured by Dow Danmark), NTR-729HF (manufactured by Nitto Denko), and the like. Examples of the electrodialysis (ED) device include electrodialysis devices manufactured by Yuasa Ionics and Nippon Ruisui.

乳タンパク質画分の分解物は、乳タンパク質画分と同様のアミノ酸組成を有しており、例えば、上記の方法で得られた乳タンパク質画分にペプシン、トリプシン、キモトリプシン等のタンパク質分解酵素を作用させ、さらに必要に応じ、パンクレアチン等のタンパク質分解酵素を作用させることにより、平均分子量4,000以下の分解物として得ることができる。なお、乳タンパク質画分の分解物は、凍結乾燥等により粉末化して使用することも可能である。   The degradation product of the milk protein fraction has the same amino acid composition as that of the milk protein fraction. For example, a protease such as pepsin, trypsin or chymotrypsin acts on the milk protein fraction obtained by the above method. Furthermore, if necessary, a degradation product having an average molecular weight of 4,000 or less can be obtained by acting a proteolytic enzyme such as pancreatin. The degradation product of the milk protein fraction can also be used after being pulverized by freeze drying or the like.

When orally administering the skin collagen production promoter of the present invention, the active ingredient milk protein fraction or the degradation product of the milk protein fraction can be used as it is. It can also be formulated into a medicine, tablet, capsule, drink or the like. In the present invention, oral preparations such as powders, granules, tablets and capsules are formulated by conventional methods using excipients such as starch, lactose, sucrose, mannitol, carboxymethylcellulose, corn starch, and inorganic salts.
