- disorders such as: light or moderate depression, associ- ated with anxiety conditions or not; agitation and irritability, or other symptoms present during premenstrual syndrome, including migraine; depression resulting from chronic pain conditions, including those seen in somatic dis- eases accompanied by neuropathic pain; unsociability; psychoipathic, neu ⁇ rotic or reactive mood disorders; control of conditions related to panic syn ⁇ drome; difficulties with daily activities and behavior disorders.
- a number of products comprising varying concentrations of extract of the above plants are commercially available.
- the use thereof so far recommended in the art is related to the treatment of physical and mental fatigues, neuromuscular asthenia and weariness.
- composition of the present invention contains as follows:
- Extract of Trichilia sp (specially Trichi0.50 to 5.50 0.50 to 5.0 lia catigua)
- Extract of Ptychopetalum olacoides 0.01 to 5.50 0.01 to 5.0
- Extract of Zingiber officinale 0.10 to 2.00 0.1 to 0.40
- Extract of Trichilia sp (specially Trichilia 5 to 50 30 to 50 catigua)
- extract of Catuama comprises:
- the product may comprise usual excipients for formulation such as preservatives, colorants, carriers etc. Adequate excipients are well known by those skilled in the art and do not constitute limiting aspects of the inven- tion.
- Trichilia catigua A. Juss.
- T. claus- seni C. DC T. casaretti C. DC
- T. pallida Swartz. T. elegans A. Juss.
- the materials extracted from Trichilia sp. are preferably fragments of the whole plant, more preferably stalk, which are advantageously used as extract, more preferably they are formulated with pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers.
- Formu- lations of Trichilia sp. useful for the present invention can be administered, e.g., orally in the form of tablets, coated tablets, hard and soft gelatin capsules, solutions, emulsions and suspensions; or rectally, in the form of suppositories.
- Suitable carriers include, but are not limited to, lactose, starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acid or salts thereof in the case of solid for- mulations for oral administration.
- Suitable carriers for soft gelatin capsules include vegetable oils, waxes, fats, semi-solid and liquid polyols. Solutions may be prepared comprising selected carriers such as water, polyols and carbohydrates.
- suitable carriers comprise natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats and polyols.
- the formulations of the Catuama extract according to the present invention may contain preservative agents, solubilizing agents, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, sweeteners, coloring agents, flavoring agents, tonicity adjustment substances, buffers, coating agents or anti-oxidants.
- an effective dosage for administration to humans was found to be in the range from 10 mg to 0.5 g Catuama extract.
- the invention will now be described specifically referring to the applicant's product having the name Catuama®, that is already commercialized in Brazil for the treatment of several chronic diseases such as physical and mental fatigue, neuromuscular asthenia and weariness.
- the pharma- ceutical formulations available allow the product to be administered orally.
- Another advantage of the product is associated to the lack of any reported undesirable or side effects, even when the product is used for long periods of time.
- Catuama extract referred to in this invention (specially Catauma®) exhibits antidepres- sant and anxiolytic effects, specially when used regularly and for extended periods of time.
- the present invention relates to the Catauma extract effects on pathologies involving changes in the central nervous system, essentially for the treatment or prevention of depressive disorders related to anxiety or not.
- Substances acting centrally such as those contained in Catuama extract (particularly Catuama ® ) could be highly useful when administered in combination with each other, by virtue of its synergistic effects.
- Synergism is defined as the effect arising from the association of low doses of two or more substances exhibiting the same effect. This concept is particularly important when taking into account the reduction of undesirable effects of such substances.
- Catuama extract especially Catuama®
- the four plants that comprise the product have antidepressive and anxiolytic ef ⁇ fects that are potentiated when the extracts are used in combination.
- Modulation of the response mediated in the central nervous system can be quite interesting for the treatment of diseases such as light and moderate depression.
- Depressive disorders can be described as multi- causal ones and are known for triggering a series of other relevant changes, which need to be considered when developing a new antidepressant.
- depression occurs in conjunction with other disorders, such as anxiety, and agitation states.
- depression may be a consequence of an- other pathologic condition, including those such as neuropathic pain, associated with somatic diseases.
- Catuama extract specially Catuama®
- Figure 1 shows the effect of acute treatment with Catuama extract on the immobility time in the compelled swimming test in mice. Each group represents the average of 8 to 10 animals and the vertical bars indicate the E.P.M. It significantly differs from the control group, **P ⁇ 0.01.
- Figure 2 shows the effect of subchronic treatment with Catuama extract on the immobility time in the compelled swimming test in mice. Each group represents the average of 8 to 10 animals and the vertical bars indicate the E.P.M. It significantly differs from the control group, **P ⁇ 0.01.
- Figure 3 shows the effect of chronic treatment with Catuama ex- tract on the immobility time in the compelled swimming test in mice. Each group represents the average of 8 to 10 animals and the vertical bars indicate the E.P.M. It significantly differs from the control group, **P ⁇ 0.01.
- Figure 4 shows the effect of acute treatment with Catuama extract (1-500 ⁇ g/ml) on locomotion in the open field test in mice. Each group represents the average of 8 to 10 animals and the vertical bars indicate the E.P.M. It significantly differs from the control group, ** P ⁇ 0.01.
- the illustrative test examples below are given for a better description of the present invention. However, the data and procedures illustrated herein refer to certain embodiments of the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the scope thereof.
- Catuama extract a composition of ex- tracts in the solid and dry form as follows:
- mice 25-30 g were indi- vidually placed inside a cylindrical container (10 cm diameter x 25 cm height) containing 19 cm of water at 25 ⁇ 1°C. The time of immobility of the animals were measured during a 6 minute period. The animals were treated with Catuama extract (at doses of 300 mg/kg or more, orally, 6 hours before). In another series of experiments, in order to verify the chronic effect of the product, the mice were treated with Catuama extract for 7 days, at doses of up to 200 mg/kg, orally. Other control animals were pre-treated with saline and served as controls.
- mice Male mice (25 - 30 g) were used for carrying out these experi- ments. The animals were lifted by their tail with the aid of adhesive tape and the time of immobility was measured for a 6 minute period. The mice were treated with Catuama extract (at doses of 300 mg/kg or more, v.o., 6 hours before). The control animals were pre-treated with saline. Another group of animals received imipramine (15 mg/kg, i.p., 30 minutes before), which was used as a positive control as previously described.
- mice were subjected to the open field test. Mice were indi- vidually placed inside a box (40 x 50 x 60 cm height) with the floor divided into 12 identical squares. The number of crossed squares (with the 4 paws) was recorded during a 6 minute period. The mice were treated with Catuama extract (at varying doses of up to 300 mg/kg, v.o., 6 hours before). The animals of the control group were pre-treated with saline.
