Definitions

  • the invention relates to sterols, and particularly to hydrophilic derivatives of plant sterols.
  • the invention further relates to the preparation and use of these plant sterol derivatives and compositions containing the same.
  • Plant-based sterols and some sterol derivatives show many attractive properties and uses, particularly in medicine. These compounds have been found to have therapeutic effects on the function of the heart, kidneys and prostate, lipid metabolism, infections and some forms of cancer, for ex- ample.
  • the use of plant sterols in lowering blood cholesterol level is particularly interesting.
  • the cholesterol-lowering effect of ⁇ -sitosterol has been known since the 1950's. The effect is based on the fact that ⁇ -sitosterol inhibits the absorption of cholesterol in the intestines. Consequently, ⁇ - sitosterol has been used for decades as a drug and natural product to lower blood cholesterol level.
  • ⁇ -sitosterol In addition to ⁇ -sitosterol, ⁇ -sitostanol has also been found to have similar or even more advantageous properties.
  • the greatest problem in using these compounds and plant sterols in general is, however, that they are poorly soluble in oils and fats and completely insoluble in water.
  • hydroxylic group contained in sterols allow them to form esters with fatty acids, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid anhydrides or carboxylic acid chlorides, for example.
  • ester derivatives have been prepared in order to modify the solubility of sterols in oil, fat and water.
  • WO 92/19640 discloses a cholesterol-lowering agent containing a fatty acid ester of ⁇ - sitostanol or a mixture of such fatty acid esters.
  • the ⁇ -sitostanol fatty acid ester used in the composition is prepared by a transesterification reaction using the methyl ester of rapeseed oil and sitostanol, for example, as the starting material.
  • the water solubility of plant sterols cannot be improved in this manner.
  • EP 0,007,474 B1 discloses an attempt to improve the water solubility of sterols by forming dihemiesters and trihemiesters, e.g. disuccinates and trisuccinates, of sterol glycosides and salts thereof.
  • These sterol derivatives are prepared by a reaction of sterol glycoside and carboxylic acid anhydride.
  • the compounds are stated to be therapeutically active in preventing infections and as cancer drugs, for example.
  • These compounds have, however, the disadvantage that they are not stable in aqueous solutions; furthermore, due to the preparation process, they are not always necessarily completely non-toxic.
  • Polar sterol derivatives are surfactants that lower the surface tension and accumulate to phase boundaries.
  • Steroid esters are commonly used in cosmetics. They are used in hair cosmetics and skincare. For example, esters of 2-ethyl hexane acid, stearic acid and oleic acid with cholesterol are used in lipsticks, eye shadows and in skin creams and emulsions. Steroid esters are also used in hair care products. The use of steroid esters is based on their good emulsifying ability and good affinity with skin. Steroid esters act as additives that form boundaries between different phases, generally enabling mixtures containing different phases and materials to be stable.
  • Steroid esters are also used in the manufacture of liquid crystals and biodegradable polymers. Also in these applications, the steroids act as substances combining different phases, enabling stability of the mixtures.
  • An object of the invention is thus to provide novel, non-toxic plant sterol derivatives that consist of naturally occurring compounds and are hydrophilic, thus having a higher solubility in polar solutions, such as alcohol so- lutions, and particularly in aqueous solutions.
  • the objects of the invention are achieved by a product and a process that are characterized by what is disclosed in the independent claims.
  • the preferred embodiments of the invention are disclosed in the dependent claims.
  • the hydrophilicity and water solu- bility of plant sterols were improved by esterifying a plant sterol, such as ⁇ - sitosterol, with a fruit acid, such as citric acid, to give a hydrophilic ester of the plant sterol and the fruit acid.
  • the products thus obtained are non-toxic and consist of plant-based compounds found as such in many foodstuffs, thereby being highly suitable for use in pharmaceuticals and foodstuffs.
  • the term 'hydrophilicity' refers to the ability of the compound of the invention to form hydrogen bonds with the surrounding solution and thus the tendency of the compound to be more soluble than a sterol molecule with one OH group.
  • the invention relates to a sterol derivative which is an ester of a plant sterol and a fruit acid.
  • plant sterols refer to plant-based sterols (including the saturated forms thereof, i.e. stanols) that can be separated from plants. These also include sterols of the plant sterol type synthetically prepared from steroid precursors.
