Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、新規な抗アレルギー組成物、詳細には、シソ属植物の加工物及びパフィア属植物の加工物を有効成分として含んでなる抗アレルギー組成物に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
花粉症、アトピー性皮膚炎、喘息をはじめとするアレルギー性疾患は、それに対する特効薬といえるものが現在のところ確立されておらず、現代社会において多くの人々を悩ませている疾患のひとつである。アレルギー性疾患は、健常者からすれば比較的軽微な疾患に過ぎないと見られる場合が多く、その患者は、本人がいかにつらい思いをしていようとも、通常どおりの勤務、学業、家事等の各人の日課をこなすことを余儀なくされる。このことが、見かけ以上にアレルギー患者を悩ませる一因ともなっている。このような状況下、アレルギ−による諸症状を効果的に緩和することができ、かつ、日常生活に支障をきたさないように、日常的に無理なく利用することができる組成物の確立が待ち望まれている。
【0003】
このような斯界の要望に応えるために、人類が古来より食経験を有する植物から抗アレルギー作用を示すものを検索し、これを有効に利用することを目指した研究が行われている。例えば、田村幸一ら、『日本食品化学会誌』、5巻、2号、239乃至243頁(1998年)には、シソ属植物の一種である赤シソの抽出物には花粉症の症状を緩和する効果があることが報告されている。この論文においては、成人1日当たり赤シソの抽出物200mg相当(固形物重量として)を花粉症患者に服用させるモニター試験において、症状の改善を自覚した患者が有意数認められたことが記載されている。また、このモニター試験においては、副作用は一切認められなかったことも記載されている。
【0004】
しかしながら、一般的な食事における赤シソの摂取量では、上記の従来の技術に示された、赤シソ抽出物による抗アレルギー作用を得るまでの量には通常至らず、また、所期の抗アレルギー作用を惹き出すための赤シソ抽出物の量は、日常的な食事における赤シソの一般的な利用から想定される量を大幅に上回る量であるため、その服用に際しては呈味などの点でかなりの違和感を利用者に与えることとなる。したがって、従来の技術による赤シソ抽出物による抗アレルギー作用はなお十分ではなく、この従来の技術と比較してより顕著な抗アレルギー作用を発揮する組成物が得られれば、このような問題は解消されるといえる。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
斯かる状況に鑑み、本発明の課題は、食経験のある植物を利用して、日常的に常用することができる、顕著な抗アレルギー作用を発揮する抗アレルギー組成物を提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の課題を解決するため、本発明者等は、赤シソをはじめとするシソ属植物の加工物によるアレルギー症状の緩和作用ならびにその副作用の低さに着目し、この緩和作用を顕著に高めた組成物の確立を目指して、食経験のある植物の加工物との配合について広く検討した。その結果、シソ属植物の加工物に、パフィア属植物の加工物を配合した組成物は、それぞれを単独で服用した場合と比較して、アレルギー症状の緩和作用を顕著に高いレベルで発揮することが判明した。そして、このことから、パフィア属植物の加工物を配合することによって、アレルギー症状の緩和作用を惹き出すためのシソ属植物の加工物の1回当たりの服用量を大幅に低減することができ、結果として、呈味の点においても良好で、日常的に服用できることが確認された。本発明は、本発明者らによる以上の独自の発見に基づいて完成されたものである。
【0007】
すなわち、本発明は、シソ属植物の加工物及びパフィア属植物の加工物を含んでなる抗アレルギー組成物を提供することにより上記の課題を解決するものである。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明は、シソ属植物の加工物及びパフィア(Pfaffia)属植物の加工物を含んでなる抗アレルギー組成物に関するものである。本発明で用いる両植物の加工物は、これらを含んでなる組成物の形態で、経口的に服用したときに、後述するような抗アレルギー作用を発揮するものである限り、利用する植物の種もしくは品種、利用する部位や、その加工手段は問わない。本発明で利用できるシソ属植物の種もしくは品種としては、通常食用として利用される、例えば、赤シソ、青シソ(大葉ともいう)などが挙げられ、部位としては、葉、茎、根、子実などが挙げられる。これらのうち、葉を含む地上部の加工物、望ましくは、赤シソから単離された葉の加工物は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合したときの抗アレルギー作用の強さの点で比較的有用である。本発明で利用できるパフィア属植物(以下、単に「パフィア」という場合がある。)の種もしくは品種としては、薬用などとして食経験のある、例えば、パフィア・グロメラータ(Pfaffia glomerata)、パフィア・イレジノイデス(Pfaffia iresinoides)、パフィア・ジュバータ(Pfaffia jubata)、パフィア・パニキュラータ(Pfaffia paniculata)、パフィア・プルベルレンタ(Pfaffia pulverulenta)及びパフィア・スピカータ(Pfaffia spicata)などが挙げられ、部位としては、葉、茎、根、子実などが挙げられる。これらのうち、根を含む地下部の加工物、望ましくは、パフィア・グロメラータから単離された根の加工物は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合したときの抗アレルギー作用の強さの点で比較的有用である。
【0009】
本発明で利用することができる、上記のようなシソ属植物及びパフィア属植物の加工物としては、例えば、乾燥物、細断物、破砕物、粉砕物、圧搾物、抽出物などが挙げられる。抽出物としては、より詳細には、水ならびに、エタノール、プロパノール、アセトン、酢酸エチル、アセトニトリルなどの有機溶媒もしくは、これらの1種又は2種以上を混合してなる混液による抽出物が挙げられる。なお、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物を、経口摂取など人体に直接的に適用して利用する場合には、上記のような有機溶媒による抽出物は、その溶媒をエバポレーター等により、必要に応じて、十分に除去した後に用いるのが望ましい。これらの加工物のうち、シソ属植物の水による抽出物及びパフィア属植物の水による抽出物は、他の加工物を用いる場合に比べて、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合したとき、比較的強い抗アレルギー作用を発揮する特徴がある。加工方法によってその含量は異なるものの、本発明で用いるシソ属植物の加工物は、該植物由来の成分として、通常、コーヒー酸、ロスマリン酸及びルテオリンを含み、パフィア属植物の加工物は、該植物由来の成分として、通常、ルブロステロン及びプテロステロン(共にエクジステロン誘導体)を含んでいる。これらの成分は、これらを分離する慣用の高速液体クロマトグラフィーによって確認することができ、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物中にもこれらの成分は通常検出される。
【0010】
本発明の抗アレルギー組成物におけるシソ属植物の加工物とパフィア属植物の加工物との配合比は、斯かる組成物を経口的に服用したときに、下記に詳述するような抗アレルギー作用を発揮するものである限り特に制限はなく、用いる加工物の種類に応じて適宜選択される。例えば、シソ属植物の加工物として、赤シソの乾燥葉の水抽出物を用い、パフィア属植物の加工物として、パフィア・グロメラータの乾燥根の水抽出物を用いる場合の好適な配合比は、固形物重量換算で、通常、1:0.1乃至50、望ましくは、1:0.5乃至10の範囲である。
【0011】
以上のような植物の加工物を配合した本発明による抗アレルギー組成物は、シソ属植物の加工物及びパフィア属植物の加工物を単独で利用する場合に比べ、また、それぞれの単独利用による効果の和として想定される効果を遥かに上回るレベルで抗アレルギー作用を発揮する。本発明の抗アレルギー組成物による抗アレルギー作用は、例えば、アレルギー性疾患における自覚症状の低減、緩和効果として確認することができる。また、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物による作用は、対象とする疾患の種類にもよるけれども、通常、抗体産生細胞によるIgE抗体の過剰な産生の抑制、IgE抗体のIgEレセプターへの結合及びそれに引き続いて起こるヒスタミンの遊離等の各種の過剰な生体反応の抑制、貪食細胞やキラー細胞による標的細胞の過剰な破壊の抑制、免疫複合体への補体の結合及びそれに引き続いて起こるアナフィラトキシン形成等の補体系の過剰な活性化の抑制、炎症性サイトカイン産生細胞の前駆細胞からの分化の亢進の抑制、T細胞からの炎症性サイトカインの過剰な産生の抑制の1種又は2種以上により発揮されるので、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物による作用は、イン・ビトロで、あるいは、動物実験を用いてこれらの現象を観察する実験系によって確認することも可能である。
【0012】
本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に、さらに、タデ属植物の加工物及びアロエ属植物の加工物の一方又は両方を配合すると、対象とするアレルギー性疾患によっては、症状の緩和効果がさらに顕著に発揮される場合があるので、これらの植物加工物の一方又は両方を必要に応じてさらに配合することも有利に実施できる。本発明で利用できるタデ属植物の種もしくは品種としては、薬用又は食用として食経験のある、例えば、アイ(タデアイともいう)、ヤナギタデ、イタドリ、オオケタデなどが挙げられ、部位としては、葉、茎、根、子実などが挙げられる。これらのうち、葉を含む地上部の加工物、望ましくは、アイから単離された葉の加工物は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合したとき、特に、花粉症やアトピー性疾患などに対する緩和作用が比較的顕著であるという特徴がある。本発明で利用できるアロエ属植物の代表的な種としてはアロエ(キダチロカイ、キダチアロエともいう)が挙げられ、アロエの葉を含む地上部の加工物を配合した本発明の抗アレルギー組成物も、特に、花粉症やアトピー性疾患などに対する緩和作用が比較的顕著であるという特徴がある。
【0013】
本発明で利用することができる、上記のようなタデ属植物及びアロエ属植物の加工物としては、例えば、乾燥物、細断物、破砕物、粉砕物、圧搾物、抽出物などが挙げられる。抽出物としては、より詳細には、水ならびに、エタノール、プロパノール、アセトン、酢酸エチル、アセトニトリルなどの有機溶媒もしくは、これらの1種又は2種以上を混合してなる混液による抽出物が挙げられる。なお、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物を、経口摂取など人体に直接的に適用して利用する場合には、上記のような有機溶媒による抽出物は、その溶媒をエバポレーター等により、必要に応じて、十分に除去した後に用いるのが望ましい。これらの加工物のうち、収穫後の新鮮な組織の搾汁もしくは水による抽出物は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合したとき、特に花粉症やアトピー性疾患に対する緩和作用が比較的顕著であるという特徴がある。また、本発明においては、例えば、アロエエキスなどのように、食用として市販されている、目的とする植物の加工物を利用することも随意である。加工方法によってその含量は異なるものの、本発明で用いるタデ属植物の加工物は、該植物由来の成分として、通常、インディカンを含み、アロエ属植物の加工物は、該植物由来の成分として、通常、アロインを含んでいる。これらの成分は、これらを分離する慣用の高速液体クロマトグラフィーによって確認することができ、タデ属植物の加工物及びアロエ属植物の加工物を配合した本発明の抗アレルギー組成物においては、通常、これらの成分が検出される。
【0014】
本発明の抗アレルギー組成物において、タデ属植物の加工物とアロエ属植物の加工物は、斯かる組成物を経口的に服用したときに、シソ属植物及びパフィア属植物の組合わせよって増強された抗アレルギー作用が発揮される範囲であれば、所望の配合比で配合して利用することができる。例えば、タデ属植物の加工物として新鮮なアイの地上部の水抽出物を用いる場合、シソ属植物の加工物に対する好適な配合比は、固形物重量換算で、通常、1:0.002乃至20、望ましくは、1:0.02乃至2の範囲であり、また、アロエ属植物の加工物としては新鮮なアロエ葉の水抽出物もしくは搾汁を用いる場合、シソ属植物の加工物に対する好適な配合比は、固形物重量換算で、通常、1:0.0005乃至5、望ましくは、1:0.005乃至0.5の範囲である。
【0015】
本発明の抗アレルギー組成物には、必要に応じて、さらに、糖質及び/又はミネラルを配合することもできる。これらの成分は、例えば、基剤、増量剤、賦形剤などとして有用であることから、これらの成分を配合することは、当該抗アレルギー組成物を、より手軽に日常的に利用できるものとする上で有利である。本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合して利用できる糖質としては、食品分野で一般的に利用される糖質、例えば、グルコース、フルクトース、マルトース、ガラクトース、ラクトースなどの還元性糖質、マルチトール、ソルビトール、トレハロース(α,α−トレハロース)、スクロースなどの非還元性糖質(糖アルコールを含む)、澱粉、澱粉部分分解物、プルラン、デキストラン、アラビアガム、カードラン、カラギナン、キサンタンガムなどの多糖類などが挙げられる。これらの糖質は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物の利用分野・利用形態に応じて1種又は2種以上を適宜選択することができ、例えば、矯味が必要とされる場合には上記例の還元性糖質ならびに非還元性糖質が有用であり、逆に、無味もしくは呈味の低さが必要とされる場合には上記例の多糖類が有用である。また、マルチトールやトレハロースなどの非還元性糖質は、それ自体安定性の高い糖質である上に、配合割合によっては、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物の有効成分の安定性を顕著に高める場合もあるので、安定剤としても利用することも可能である。
【0016】
本発明の抗アレルギー組成物に配合して利用できるミネラルとしては、食品分野で一般に利用されるミネラル剤、例えば、貝殻未焼成カルシウムや貝殻焼成カルシウムなどの貝殻粉末、卵殻未焼成カルシウムや卵殻焼成カルシウムなどの卵殻粉末、骨未焼成カルシウムや骨焼成カルシウムなどの獣骨又は魚骨の粉末などの天然物の他、リン酸カルシウム、クエン酸鉄ナトリウム、硫酸カルシウムなどの食品用のミネラル剤が挙げられる。
【0017】
この発明の抗アレルギー組成物には、さらに必要に応じて、以上示した成分以外の、甘味料、強化剤、乳化剤、香料、香辛料、酸味料、色素、ビタミン、アミノ酸等の、食品分野で通常一般的に利用される成分をさらに配合することも有利に実施できる。これらの成分は、この発明の抗アレルギー組成物の利用分野、例えば、食品分野で通常用いられる成分から目的に応じて適宜選択される。以上のような成分を含むこの発明の抗アレルギー組成物の形態には特に制限はなく、粉末、顆粒、錠剤、ペースト、乳液、溶液などの所望の形態で提供される。以上のような成分を含む本発明の抗アレルギー剤は、シソ属植物の加工物を、固形物重量換算で、通常、0.01%(w/w)乃至20%(w/w)、望ましくは、0.1%(w/w)乃至10%(w/w)含有する。以上のような本発明の抗アレルギー組成物は、それ自体で、アレルギー症状を緩和するための健康食品などとして利用できるほか、例えば、キャンディー、トローチ、ゼリー、グミ、チューインガム、チョコレート、ジュース、清涼飲料水、アルコール飲料、乳酸菌飲料、ジャム、クリーム、クッキー、ビスケット、煎餅、クラッカー、うどん、そば、ソーセージ、ハム、蒲鉾、竹輪、半片、佃煮、即席ジュース、即席スープなどの飲食品に抗アレルギー作用を付与する食品素材としても利用することができる。
【0018】
以上のように構成される本発明による抗アレルギー組成物ならびに当該組成物を含んでなる飲食品は、通常、経口摂取することによってアレルギー性疾患の諸症状の緩和効果を発揮する。当該抗アレルギー組成物が所期の効果を発揮する疾患としては、例えば、具体的には、花粉症、アトピー性疾患、食物アレルギー、接触皮膚炎、喘息などが挙げられる。当該抗アレルギー組成物は、副作用の懸念なく利用することができるので、所期の効果を得るための必要量を上回る量摂取しても特に問題はないけれども、通常は、自覚症状を確認しながら適量が摂取される。配合されている植物の加工物の種類やその配合比などにもよるけれども、当該抗アレルギー組成物の好適な摂取量は、シソ属植物の加工物の固形物重量として、成人1人1日当たり、通常、0.1mg以上100mg未満、望ましくは、0.5mg以上50mg未満の範囲である。この摂取量は、シソ属植物の加工物を単独で用いてその抗アレルギー作用を惹き出すに必要な量を遥かに下回るものである。したがって、当該抗アレルギー組成物は、経口摂取する際、シソ属植物の加工物を単独で利用する場合に比べて、呈味の点で、より違和感なく利用でき、気軽に常用できるという利点がある。
【0019】
以下、実施例に基づいて本発明をより詳細に説明する。

実施例1−1で得た赤シソ加工物を含む粉末1重量部、実施例1−2で得たパフィア加工物を含む粉末1重量部、実施例1−1で得た基剤2重量部、ショ糖脂肪酸エステル0.08重量部を均一な状態に混合した後、打錠機を用いて常法により成形し、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物を、1錠当たり0.21gのタブレットとして得た。実施例1−1及び実施例1−2で求めた各加工物の固形物含量より、このタブレット1錠当たりの赤シソ加工物及びパフィア加工物の含量を計算したところ、固形物重量換算で、それぞれ、約2.1mg及び約7.9mgであった。
【0027】
比較剤1として、上記の本発明の抗アレルギー組成物におけるパフィア加工物を含む粉末を、実施例1−1で得た基剤に置き換えたタブレットを得た。
【0028】
比較剤2として、上記の本発明の抗アレルギー組成物における赤シソ加工物を含む粉末を、実施例1−1で得た基剤に置き換えたタブレットを得た。
【0029】
上記で得た本発明の抗アレルギー組成物(以下、「試験剤」という。)、比較剤1、比較剤2の抗アレルギー作用を以下のモニター試験により調べた。例年、春季に、花粉症の諸症状を自覚し、この試験の開始時期(3月上旬)も例年と同様にその症状の自覚のある成人をモニターとして募り(合計90名。このうち男性48名、年齢24才乃至55才。女性42名、年齢22才乃至59才。)、先ず、モニターとして採用した時点での、花粉症の症状としてのくしゃみ、目の痒みの度合いについてアンケート調査した。この調査結果に基づいて、両症状の度合いの分布が各群でほぼ均等になるように、モニターを1群30名の3群に群分けした。
【0030】
第1群のモニターには試験剤を、第2群のモニターには比較剤1を、第3群のモニターには比較剤2をそれぞれ配布した。配布の翌日から、毎日、2週間にわたって所定の錠剤を、1回当たり2錠ずつ、1日3回の頻度で服用させ、体調、自覚症状などに応じて服用の中断、中止は本人の意思で決定させた。なお、この試験は、予めモニターの全員に各自が服用することとなる錠剤の組成を説明し、服用に対する同意を得た上で、内科医の指導のもとで実施した。この期間中に錠剤の服用を中断又は中止したモニターはいなかった。
【0031】
上記の2週間の服用期間を終えた翌日に、この服用期間の前後での花粉症の症状を、くしゃみについては、「出ない」、「やや出る」、「出る」の3段階で、目の痒みについては、「痒くない」、「やや痒い」、「痒い」の3段階で、それぞれの自覚症状に基づいて評価させた。この結果を集計し、くしゃみ及び目の痒みのそれぞれについて、表1及び表2にまとめた。
【0032】

【0034】
表1及び表2に示すとおり、各群ごとに比べてみた場合、くしゃみ及び目の痒みともに、試験剤には比較剤1及び比較剤2の場合に比べて格段の緩和効果が認められた。この効果の違いをより詳細に比較するために、くしゃみについては、各群ごとに、「出ない」及び「やや出る」と評価したモニターの数を合計して軽症者数とし、各群に占める軽症者数の割合(%)を求めた。そして、服用前から服用後の軽症者数の割合(%)の増加ポイント数を求め、各錠剤による奏功率として評価した。目の痒みについては、「痒くない」及び「やや痒い」を軽症者とし、同様に各錠剤による奏功率を求めた。結果を表3に示す。
【0035】
【表3】
Figure 0005035494
【0036】
表3に示すとおり、くしゃみ及び目の痒みのいずれの症状に対しても、試験剤は、比較剤1及び比較剤2と比較して遥かに高い奏功率を示した。そして、表3から明らかなとおり、試験剤による奏功率は、比較剤1及び比較剤2による奏功率の加算値を大きく上回った。以上の結果は、本発明の抗アレルギー組成物が、赤シソの加工物やパフィアの加工物の単独による抗アレルギー作用を遥かに上回る、増強された抗アレルギー作用を発揮することを示している。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel antiallergic composition, and more particularly, to an antiallergic composition comprising a processed product of Perilla plant and a processed product of Paphia plant as active ingredients.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Allergic diseases such as hay fever, atopic dermatitis, and asthma have not been established at present, and are one of the diseases that plague many people in modern society. . In many cases, allergic diseases are seen as relatively minor diseases by healthy individuals, and no matter how hard they feel, the patient may be able to work normally, study, or do housework. You will be forced to manage each person's daily routine. This also contributes to annoying allergic patients more than apparent. Under such circumstances, there is a long-awaited establishment of a composition that can effectively alleviate various symptoms caused by allergy and can be used comfortably on a daily basis so as not to interfere with daily life. ing.
[0003]
In order to meet such a demand from the world, research aimed at searching for an anti-allergic action from plants that have been eaten for a long time by human beings and utilizing this effectively. For example, Koichi Tamura et al., “Journal of Japanese Food Chemistry”, Vol. 5, No. 2, pp. 239 to 243 (1998), extracts of red perilla, a kind of perilla plant, alleviates the symptoms of hay fever. It has been reported that there is an effect. In this paper, it is described that a significant number of patients who were aware of symptom improvement was found in a monitor test in which an equivalent of 200 mg of red perilla extract per adult (as solid weight) was taken by hay fever patients. Yes. It is also described that no side effects were observed in this monitor test.
[0004]
However, the amount of red perilla intake in a general diet does not usually reach the antiallergic effect of red perilla extract shown in the above-mentioned conventional technology, and the expected antiallergy The amount of red perilla extract for inducing the effect is much higher than the amount expected from the general use of red perilla in daily diets. This will give the user a sense of incongruity. Therefore, the anti-allergic effect of the red perilla extract according to the conventional technique is still not sufficient, and such a problem will be solved if a composition exhibiting a more remarkable anti-allergic action as compared with this conventional technique is obtained. It can be said that.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of such a situation, an object of the present invention is to provide an antiallergic composition that exhibits a remarkable antiallergic action, which can be routinely used on a daily basis, using plants having dietary experience.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the present inventors have remarkably enhanced this alleviation by paying attention to the alleviation of allergic symptoms and low side effects caused by processed products of the perilla genus plants including red perilla. With the aim of establishing the composition, we studied extensively the combination with the processed plant of the food experience. As a result, a composition comprising a processed product of the genus Pafia and a processed product of the genus Paphia exhibits a remarkably high level of allergic symptom-relieving action compared to the case where each is taken alone. There was found. And, from this, by blending the processed product of the genus Pafia plant, the dose per time of the processed product of the genus plant for eliciting alleviation of allergic symptoms can be greatly reduced, As a result, it was confirmed that it was good in terms of taste and could be taken on a daily basis. The present invention has been completed on the basis of the above-described unique findings by the present inventors.
