Definitions

  • the present invention relates to oral care compositions and methods of improving the taste thereof.
  • TRCs apical membranes of taste receptor cells
  • GPCRs G protein-coupled receptors
  • TRCs are specialized epithelial cells with many neuronal properties including the ability to depolarize and form synapses. TRCs are typically clustered in groups of -100 within taste buds.
  • the apical surface of TRCs which makes contact with the oral cavity, is rich in convoluted microvilli containing GPCRs, ion channels, and other transduction elements.
  • the basolateral aspect of TRCs contains ion channels and synapses with afferent taste nerves.
  • sweeteners are small molecular mass compounds but a few sweet-tasting proteins have been described.
  • Low molecular mass sweeteners and sweet-tasting proteins interact with the same receptor, as shown by recent, direct experiments: at least two of the well-characterized sweet proteins, i.e. brazzein and thaumatin, elicit a response in the human T1R2-T1R3 receptor, similar to that elicited by small molecular mass sweeteners.
  • the sweet taste receptor is a heterodimer of two G protein coupled receptors, T1R2 and T1R3.
  • T1R2:T1R3 taste receptors respond to sweet-tasting compounds such as sugars, high-potency sweeteners, and some D amino acids
  • T1R1 :T1R3 heteromers comprise a umami taste receptor sensitive to L amino acids [12 and 16].
  • Domains of human T1R2 and T1R3 are sufficient to confer sensitivity to some noncaloric sweeteners and sweet-tasting proteins to which rodents are indifferent, but it remains unknown which of these receptor subunits participates in the binding of most sweet stimuli, including sugars.
  • G protein-coupled receptors mediate many other physiological functions, such as endocrine function, exocrine function, heart rate, lipolysis, and carbohydrate metabolism.
  • TRPA1 is a known, nonselective cation channel that belongs to the superfamily of Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channels.
  • TRP Transient Receptor Potential
  • TRPA1 Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1
  • TRPA1 agonists such as citriol, eugenol, thymol, cinnamaldehyde (contained in cinnamon), eugenol, citral, geraniol, eugenol acetate, citral dimethyl acetal, or citral diethyl acetal, and certain flavorings used in oral care compositions typically express pungent, unpleasant tastes in the oral cavity.
  • TRPA1 agonists are desirable in oral care compositions to provide other benefits. Therefore, there is a need to develop oral care compositions that contain materials that can bind to the TRPA1 receptor and yet provide a neutral or positive taste.
  • US Patent Application No. 2008/0124753A1 it was disclosed that a taste profile can be created by dually activating two or more TRP receptors. Although Al could be one of the receptors activated, the compositions of the '753 application required activation of two or more receptors simultaneously to create an acceptable flavor or taste profile and offered no solution for mitigating unpleasant tastes caused by TRPAl agonists.
  • TRPAl ion channel activity by targeting the ion channel TRPM5 and vice versa through the cooperativity mechanism identified therein. More specifically, the US '848 reference disclosed modulating pain, mechanosensation, and taste responses triggered through the ion channels TRPAl and TRPM5.
  • vanillins and vanillin isobutyrate were generally disclosed as one of a series of compounds that gave rise to a sweet odor impression.
  • the disclosed purpose of US '740 was to enhance the sweetness of chalcones via saliva stimulating agents and materials that give an initial burst of sweetness. No means were provided to remedy off-tasting components.
  • US Patent Application No. 2008/0317923A1 disclosed suppression of a bitter, astringent impression in the oral cavity via compositions containing saliva stimulating agents, bitterness- masking aroma substances and/or flavorings, of which vanillin esters were not disclosed.
  • Ethyl vanillin isobutyrate was mentioned as a malodor suppressing agent, but was not disclosed as having an effect on off-tasting or bitter substances.
  • compositions that provide an enhanced perception of an active substance were disclosed.
  • the compositions included an active substance, such as a sweetener or flavor, and a sweetness modifier.
  • the sweetness modifier was disclosed as increasing the perception of sweetness upon consumption.
  • the compositions could be incorporated into various types of edible orally delivered products, such as beverages, food products, confectionary or chewing gum products. Vanillin isobutyrate was disclosed as a potential sweetness modifier.
  • Vanillin isobutyrate was disclosed as a potential sweetness modifier.
  • TRPAl agonists which are esterified methoxy phenol derivatives, uniquely block bitter and off-tasting Al agonists from binding to the Al receptor.
  • vanillin esters and structurally similar compounds act as TRPAl agonists but still result in a neutral or vanilla taste in the oral cavity.
  • Vanillin derivatives, specifically vanillin esters provide a means to balance an oral care composition's taste from bitter and poor tasting to a neutral to positive tasting formula.
  • vanillin esters and structurally similar materials have a relatively strong binding intensity to the TRPAl receptors and can out-compete with other bitter or poor tasting TRPAl agonists found in the oral care composition, resulting in an either neutral or pleasant vanilla taste even when other TRPAl agonists are present in the composition.
  • the vanillin esters "fool" the TRPAl taste receptor so that it does not convey a message to the human body of an unpleasant taste in the oral cavity.
  • the present invention is therefore directed to oral care compositions having improved taste, said composition comprising: a carrier material; from about 0.001 to about 10% , by weight of the composition, of an oral care component selected from metal salts, antimicrobial agents, bad breath reduction agents, bleaching agents, surfactants, or a combination thereof; and from about 0.0001 to about 1% , by weight of the composition, of a TRPAl agonist selected from vanillin esters; benzoate esters; hydroxybenzoate derivatives; methoxy benzoate derivatives; hydroxybutanedioate derivatives; benzamidobenzoate derivatives; methylpropanoate derivatives; phenyl acetate derivatives; hex-3-enoate derivatives; 2-(furan-2-ylmethylsulfanyl)-3- methylpyrazine; phenylmethoxymethylbenzene; (2R)-2-azaniumyl-3-[(2R)-2-azaniumyl-3- oxido-3-o
