Description
PRODUCTS CONTAININGA PHEROMONE COMPONENT
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to products and garments having a pheromone component.
BACKGROUND
Pheromones axe chemicals emitted by living organisms to send messages to individuals of the same species. The classes most widely explored are the sex pheromones produced by female moths which are used to attract conspecific males for mating. Bombykol, the sex pheromone of the silkinoth, was first synthesized in 1959.
Most pheromones consist of blends of two or more chemicals which need to be emitted at exactly the right proportions to be biologically active. The female effluvia or sex gland can contain additional compounds which are related to the pheromone components and whose biological function is often unclear. On the other hand, many attractants of male moths have been discovered simply by field screening. In several cases it coυld later be shown that the attractant found with this technique was identical to the natural pheromone produced by the female. In most others, the composition of the true pheromone is still unknown,
While it is known that pheromone systems exist in insects, an increasing number of studies have shown that pheromones play a role in many species, including humans. Pheromones in humans are believed to be produced by the apocrine glands. These glands become functional after reaching puberty, which could explain why most people develop an attraction for others at that time. Pheromones could also be the reason why a person can sense "chemistry", or feel an instant attraction or dislike when first meeting someone.
Certain compounds believed to have pheromone properties affect a specific behavioral or physiological response in human subjects, e.g., a reduction of negative affect, mood, and character traits. In one particular example, nasal administration provides for contacting neurochemical receptors of a heretofore poorly understood neuroendocrine structure, commonly known as the vomeronasal organ ("VNO", also known as "Jacobson's Organ"), with one or more steroid(s) or with compositions contaϊning the steroid(s). This organ is accessed through the nostrils of most higher animals-from snakes to humans, and has boon associated, inter alia, with pheromone
reception in certain species (see generally Muller-Schwarze & Silverstein, Chemical Signals, Plenum Press, New York (1980)). The axons of the neuroepithelia of the vomeronasal organ, located supra palatinal, form the vomeronasal nerve and have direct synaptic connection to the accessory olfactory bulb and indirect input from there to the cortico-medial amygdaloid basal forebrain and hypothalamic nuclei of the brain. The distal axons of terminalis nerve neurons may also serve as neurochemical receptors in the VNO. Stensaas, L. J., et al., J. Steroid Biochem. and'Molec. Biol. (1991) 39:553. This nerve has direct synaptic connection with the hypothalamus.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention provides beauty, healthcare and household products, as well as garments that are formulated with and/or include a pheromone substance. The products of the present invention will cause the person exposed to or wearing the product to experience a unique, mood-altering effect. This effect may also be an overall sense of well-being or heightened attractiveness.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
As used herein, a "pheromone" is a substance that provides chemical means of communication between members of the same species through secretion and peripheral chemoreception. In mammals pheromones are usually detected by receptors in the vomeronasal organ of the nose. Commonly, pheromones effect development, reproduction and related behaviors. The pheromone compositions according to the present invention are intended to cause a change in human hypothalamic function, thereby altering certain behavior and physiology mediated by the hypothalamus of individuals.
The beauty products of the present invention include, but are not limited to: hair products such as hair masks, shampoo, conditioner, mousse, gel, hairspray, volumizer, hair strengthener, hair relaxer, hair shine, hair fragrance, hair finishing spray and pomade; face, body and skin care products such as: body wash, bubble bath, pre-bath skin softener, body scrub, exfoliator, body polish, bath gel, bath fragrance, bath beads, powder, lotion, tea, salts, gel balls, powder balls, body mist, body splash, moisturizer, lotion, toner, cream, butter, shower syrup, bath tanning lotion, bronzer, sunscreen, tanning spray and lotion; tooth and dental products such as: toothpaste, tooth gel, mouthwash, rinse, floss, whitener; cosmetics and skin care
products such as: deodorant, shaving cream, anti-aging products, face cleansers, undereye cream, face masks, face scrubs, aftershave, face and body toner, astringent, lip plumper, lip balm, Hp gloss, lipstick, blush, eye shadow, mascara, eyeliner, edible makeup, foundation, concealer; skin care and make-up applicators including brushes, sponges and applicators; nail products such as nail polish, nail lacquer, nail polish remover and nail polish removing pads.
The instant invention also contemplates the incorporation of a pheromone component into such home products as incense, aromatherapy and fragrance oil, room freshening spray and powder, scent plug-ins, car freshener, pillows, towels, washcloths, bed linens, home scent spray and powder, toilet bowl drop-ins; vaporizers, misters, steamers and the fluids which fill them or can be added to them, sponges and aroma sticks. Preferably the pheromone component comprises a human pheromone but it may be a dog, cat or other animal pheromones alone or in combination.
Other contemplated products having a pheromone component include garments such as eye therapy masks, sleeping mask, bras, shirts, panties, boxers, briefs and other undergarments, night gowns, pajamas and other sleeping wear, outer wear such as shirts, pants, shorts, sweaters, sweat shirts, overcoats and hats; and active wear including bathing suits. Further, the materials used to manufacture such garments may comprise a pheromone component such that when the garment is manufactured the desired effect is achieved. For example, cotton or synthetic thread, silk, wool, nylon, yarn; cotton, wool or synthetic weaved materials and combinations of all thereof.
Additionally it is contemplated to incorporate a pheromone component into new and recylcled paper, household wet wipes, personal wet wipes, magazines and newspapers. Preferably the pheromone component comprises a human pheromone but it may comprise a dog, cat or other animal pheromones alone or in combination.
The addition of the pheromone component into these items may be done through known methods including compounding, mixing, controlled release, microencapsulation, layering, spraying and soaking.
In addition to physiological responses, pheromones can be identified by their species specific binding to receptors in the vomeronasal organ (VNO). Thus, human pheromones bind to human receptors. This can be demonstrated by measuring the change in the summated potential of neuroepithelial tissue in the presence of the
pheromone. Human pheromones induce a change of at least about -5 millivolts in human neuroepithelial tissue of the appropriate sex. (The binding of pheromones is generally sexually dimorphic, i.e., different in the effect of, or response to, a compound or composition between males and females of the same species). Naturally occurring human pheromones induce sexually dimorphic changes in receptor binding potential in vivo in the human VNO. Naturally occurring human pheromones can be extracted and purified from human skin and they can also be synthesized. "Human pheromones" are pheromones which are naturally occurring in humans and effective as a specifically binding ligand in human VNO tissue, regardless of how the pheromone was obtained. Thus, both a synthesized and purified molecule may be considered a human pheromone.
In other embodiments different animal pheromones may be added to the products including dog, cat and bird pheromones and combinations thereof.
The present invention is not limited in the pheromone composition used. Exemplary human pheromone compounds include, but are not limited to, copulins (such as short chain aliphatic acids), estrene steroids, vomeropherins, such as 19-nor- cholane steroids, 19-nor-pregnane steroids such, and androstene and androstenedione compounds. Combinations and metabolites of the above-recited human pheromone compounds are also contemplated.
Upon the VNO sensing of the pheromone in the confectionary product of the present invention, the human pheromone will exert its effect by altering hypothalamic function of an individual. Such alteration of hypothalamic function will bring about physiological and behavioral functions of individuals which are normally regulated by the hypothalamus. The changes in physiological functions may cause the individual eating the confectionary product to experience a unique, mood-altering effect or an overall sense of well-being and/or heightened attractiveness.
It has been found that certain human pheromones have a distinct effect on men and others on women, i.e., the compounds are sexually dimorphic.
