Description

Composition for improving skin wrinkles

The present invention relates to a composition for improving wrinkles, which exhibits excellent collagen synthesis promoting activity and collagenase inhibitory activity.

Collagen is a major substrate protein produced in skin fibroblasts and is present in extracellular epilepsy. Collagen is known to provide mechanical firmness of skin, resistance of connective tissue and binding of tissue, and to perform functions such as sustaining cell adhesion, inducing cell division and differentiation (when organic growth or wound healing) (van der Rest et al., 1990). This collagen is reduced by photoaging by age and UV irradiation, which is known to be closely related to wrinkle formation of the skin (Arthur K. Balin et al., "Aging and the skin", 1989). In recent years, extensive research on skin aging has revealed an important function of collagen in the skin.

Based on the skin moisturizing effect of collagen, products that incorporate collagen in cosmetics have been released. However, these cosmetics can be said to apply collagen to the surface of the skin, which can not be expected to moisturize by the transdermal absorption of the collagen polymer, which provides an essential skin function improvement.

On the other hand, it is known that the active ingredients that promote the collagen synthesis to exhibit the wrinkle improvement effect. For example, retinoic acid, transforming growth factor (TGF) (Cardinale G. et al, Adv. Enzymol., 41, p. 425, 1974), protein from animal placenta (JP8-231370), betul Belinic acid (JP8-208424), chlorella extract (JP9-40523, JP10-36283) and the like are known as collagen synthesis promoting substances. However, the active ingredients are limited in the amount of use due to safety problems such as irritation and redness when applying the skin, or there is a problem that can not be expected to effectively improve the skin function by substantially promoting the collagen synthesis of the skin. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of components that are safe for the living body, the active ingredients are stable, and above all, the anti-wrinkle activity that is superior to the conventional collagen synthesis promoting substance.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of components that are safe for the living body, the active ingredients are stable, and above all, the anti-wrinkle activity that is superior to the conventional collagen synthesis promoting substance.

The present inventors have a strong collagen synthesis promoting activity and collagenase inhibitory activity, the compound of formula (I) in the process of screening an active ingredient that is safe for the skin, easy to formulate formulations, and stable in the manufacture and storage of cosmetics It was found to have the same properties. Therefore, the present invention provides a composition for improving wrinkles comprising the compound of formula (I) as an active ingredient.

The compound of the formula (I) of the present invention is not only excellent in collagen synthesis promoting activity and collagenase inhibitory activity, but also excellent in solubility and stability, which is very suitable for use as an active ingredient of the composition for improving wrinkles. Therefore, the composition of the present invention comprising the compound provides an excellent wrinkle improvement effect.

The present invention provides a composition for improving wrinkles comprising the compound of formula (I) as an active ingredient.

[Formula I]

In order to achieve an excellent wrinkle improvement effect when applied to the skin, the wrinkle improving ingredient exhibits high activity at the low concentration, has an excellent ability to absorb and penetrates the skin, and can stay for a sufficient time for the wrinkle improvement effect. It is desirable to have low volatility, to keep the active ingredient stable on the composition or the skin, to be easily formulated into medicine or cosmetics, and to be safe for the skin. However, among the known wrinkle improvement components, wrinkle improvement components that satisfy all of the above characteristics are rare. For example, some wrinkle improving ingredients have excellent wrinkle improving activity even at low concentrations in vitro, but are difficult to apply to actual skin due to their poor ability to absorb and penetrate the skin. Other anti-wrinkle ingredients are less hydrophilic and difficult to formulate in medicine or cosmetics. In addition, some wrinkle improving ingredients may decompose or be transformed into other compounds when exposed to heat, light, or oxygen, and the wrinkle improving effects may already disappear before being applied to the skin.

As can be seen in the following examples, the compound of formula (I) exhibits an excellent inhibitory activity of collagenase activity at low concentrations compared to retinoic acid, which is a known wrinkle improvement component, and shows an excellent effect of promoting collagen synthesis. In addition, the high solubility in the hydrophilic solvent showed a low volatility, excellent skin permeability, and easy formulation when applying the product. In addition, the stability with the passage of light, heat or time was found to be excellent. In addition, even at low concentrations, it has been shown to be very safe for the skin because it is sufficiently effective for improving wrinkles.

Therefore, the compound of formula (I) may be used as an active ingredient exhibiting wrinkle improvement in pharmaceuticals or cosmetics. The present invention therefore also provides the use of a compound of formula (I) for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for improving wrinkles or a cosmetic composition for improving wrinkles and a method for improving wrinkles comprising applying an effective amount of the compound of formula (I) to the skin.

The effective amount of the compound included in the composition for improving wrinkles of the present invention will vary depending on the form in which the composition for improving wrinkles is commercialized, the method in which the compound is applied to the skin, and the time to stay in the skin. For example, when the composition for improving wrinkles is commercialized as a medicament for dermatological treatment according to the generation of wrinkles on the skin, the compound of formula (I) may be included at a higher concentration than when it is commercialized to cosmetics that are applied to the skin on a daily basis. There will be. Even in the case of cosmetics, the wash-off type of cosmetics such as makeup remover, detergent, etc., in which the active ingredient stays on the skin within a short time, may include a relatively high concentration of the compound of formula (I). On the other hand, in the case of a leave-on type cosmetic such as a lotion, an emulsion, a cream, or an essence in which the active ingredient stays on the skin for a long time, the compound of the formula (I) has a lower concentration than the wash-off type cosmetic. It will be alright. Although not limited thereto, in one embodiment of the present invention, the composition for improving wrinkles may include 0.0001% by weight to 10% by weight of the compound of formula (I). When the wrinkle improving composition of the present invention contains less than 0.0001% by weight of the compound of the formula (I), a sufficient wrinkle improvement effect cannot be expected, and when it contains more than 10% by weight, unwanted reaction such as allergy or skin safety occurs. There may be a problem, so it is to prevent this.

Wrinkle improvement composition of the present invention may further include a known wrinkle improvement component in addition to the compound of formula (I). Including an additional wrinkle improving component may further enhance the wrinkle improving effect of the composition of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will be able to select additional ingredients from known wrinkle improvement ingredients in consideration of skin safety, ease of formulation, and stability of the active ingredients according to combined use. In one embodiment of the present invention, the composition for improving wrinkles is a wrinkle improving component known in the art, for example, from the group consisting of retinoic acid, TGF, protein from animal placenta, betulinic acid and chlorella extract It may further comprise one or more wrinkle improving ingredients selected. Additional anti-wrinkle ingredients may be included from 0.0001% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, wherein the weight percentages promote collagen synthesis or collagenase inhibitory activity, skin safety, formulation with a compound of formula (I). It may be adjusted according to requirements such as ease of use.
