Composition containing Sanguisorba officinalis Extract for treatment hypersensitive skin disease}

The present invention relates to an agent for the treatment of hypersensitivity skin diseases containing Sanguisorba officinalis extract as an active ingredient.

Hypersensitive is an overreaction to one or more antigen exposures and is generally used in the same sense as the word allergy. The term allergy was first used by the French scholar Ficker in 1906 and refers to a substance that causes no problems in most people, causing some people to have hypersensitivity reactions such as hives or asthma.

Allergic skin diseases can be classified into exogenous allergic skin diseases caused by contact with the skin from the outside and endogenous allergic skin diseases ingested into the body or caused by metabolism and lesions in the body, and are mainly urticaria, contact Dermatitis and atopic dermatitis are all encompassed.

A typical allergic skin disease is atopic dermatitis in people with atopic allergies.

The cause of atopic dermatitis has not yet been reliably identified, so the symptoms are expressed in various ways such as skin dryness and eczema. Atopic dermatitis, also known as febrile fever, is associated with allergic diseases such as chronic diseases of the skin, asthma and hay fever. Symptoms of chronic atopic dermatitis continue to appear for more than 10 years, and itching is often severe. Atopic dermatitis, also known as allergic eczema, pediatric eczema, ectopic eczema, pancreatic neurodermatitis, etc., is a clinical category that shows clinical and histological progression from infant eczema to typical lichenification in boys, puberty, and adults. Is a disease.

The cause of the disease is not known in detail, but the most likely cause of the disease is an immunological deficiency due to an increase in Ig E, an immunoglobulin associated with allergy, or a lack of function of T lymphocytes. When allergen enters the body through the respiratory, digestive and skin, lymphocytes (T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes), which are a type of white blood cell, are activated to produce Ig E antibodies, and Ig E is a mast cell of the mucous membrane or skin. to the mast cell. At this time, if Ig E is low, it does not cause a hypersensitive immune response to a specific antibody, but if Ig E is high, histamine is secreted from mast cells in the tissue, causing inflammation. Immune products suppress histamine secretion from mast cells by activating T-cells, which mostly suppress the overimmunity of Ig E.

Serum Ig E is elevated in more than 80% of patients with atopic dermatitis, which is generally proportional to the clinical severity of atopic dermatitis. Therefore, Ig E is thought to be closely correlated with the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis, and the increase in serum Ig E levels is known to be due to the activation of certain T lymphocyte clones. That is, among CD4-positive T cells, Th2 cells secrete IL-4, which induces Ig E production from B cells, IL-5, which promotes Ig E production, and IL-6, which amplifies Ig E production. T cell clones isolated from peripheral blood and lesion skin of patients with dermatitis were found to secrete the same cytokine species as Th2 cells.

Another cause of atopic dermatitis is free radicals. Active oxygen means human oxygen free radicals and various oxygen compounds derived therefrom. Free radicals are highly reactive and act as a strong defense against invaders penetrating into the body, including bacteria and viruses, but when too much free radicals are generated, they attack the human body and form DNA nuclei or tissue membranes. Disruption of lipids and proteins, and by inhibiting the important enzymes in the body to lose the function of normal cells cause many diseases.

At this time, when the free radicals generated in the skin cells are combined with cholesterol or triglyceride to produce lipid peroxide, they penetrate inside the cells, and once penetrated, are not easily discharged and destroy the cells. As a result, lipid peroxide is deprived of the moisturizing function of the stratum corneum and is susceptible to mites, dust and contact stimuli, and atopic dermatitis easily occurs.

Complications of atopic dermatitis include secondary bacterial infection in the affected area, increased susceptibility to adverse drug effects, and decreased resistance to infections such as fungi and viruses.

Currently, the number of atopic dermatitis patients is estimated to be about 20% worldwide, and 5 to 10% of children suffer from it. The onset of symptoms usually occurs within two to six months of age, especially in infants under one year of age, with 85% occurring within five years of age. 50% of patients are known to have a short illness when they are young because the symptoms disappear before they reach 2 years of age, but 25% of the patients persist until adolescence, and the remaining 25% do not disappear even as adults.

Various types of irritable skin diseases including atopic dermatitis are increasing due to environmental factors. The best way to treat the disease is to eliminate allergens, but it is impossible to eliminate allergens, so you may be given medication to increase your immunoglobulin Ig G and lower your Ig E in your immune system B lymphocytes, or lower your histamine secretion from mast cells. Is the universal way. Or steroids or antibiotics were used to reduce pruritus or to prevent secondary infections. At the time of treatment, the treatment was effective, but the effects were not shown because the side effects are caused by discontinuing or weakening the treatment. to be. In addition, various methods using folk remedies have been used, but only the status quo is possible or only as a temporary measure. Accordingly, there is a need for the development of new therapeutics using natural herbal medicines that have no side effects and are capable of treating the underlying diseases.

Sanguisorba officinalis is a grass that smells like cucumbers or watermelons when the leaves are pulled and placed on the nose.It is also called “cucumber” because the smell of cucumber is thicker than real cucumbers. exist. Jiyu is a perennial herb that accompanies rosaceae and grows in sunny mountains or fields, especially in high mountain rocky areas. Purple flowers that look like nipples bloom roundly at the end of long peduncles, and most flowers bloom from the bottom up, but Jiyu is characterized from the top. Roots are thick and hard, stems are straight, without hairs. The end of long petiole has 5 ~ 13 small leaves. The leaf shape is long oval with dull ends and coarse edges.
