Definitions
- the present invention relates to an erythrocyte function improving agent. More specifically, the present invention relates to a red blood cell function improver that protects red blood cells from oxidative stress and is effective in improving oxygen carrying capacity.
- Red blood cells play a role in transporting oxygen to cells throughout the body and play an extremely important function in maintaining life.
- red blood cells are constantly exposed to oxidative stress due to reactive oxygen species in the blood and are susceptible to oxidative damage.
- Red blood cells are inherently flexible and can be deformed and flow even in capillaries that are smaller than red blood cells.
- the oxidative stress of red blood cells increases and the membrane lipids are oxidized, It hardens and becomes difficult to flow into thin blood vessels, causing a decrease in oxygen carrying capacity.
- hemoglobin is oxidized due to an increase in oxidative stress of red blood cells, it is converted into methemoglobin having no oxygen-binding ability, which also decreases the oxygen carrying capacity (arterial oxygen saturation).
- red blood cells Such a decrease in oxygen transport capacity of red blood cells not only reduces physical function and promotes aging, but also causes diseases such as Alzheimer, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, cataracts, and stroke. Is also known. Therefore, protecting blood cells from oxidative stress and improving the function of red blood cells are important in enhancing physical function and preventing or treating diseases caused by reduced function of red blood cells. Yes.
- carotenoids are natural pigment components that are widely distributed in plants and animals, and there are very many types, which are said to exceed 700 types.
- Carotenoids have a basic structure consisting of a polyene moiety consisting of 9 conjugated double bonds and end groups attached to both ends thereof. These carotenoids are generally considered beneficial for human health, and this is why it is recommended to eat green-yellow vegetables.
- the health functions of carotenoids are roughly classified into provitamin A function and antioxidant function.
- Provitamin A function means that a part of ingested carotenoid is converted to vitamin A in the human body.
- Vitamin A is an essential component of the light recognition mechanism on the retina, and its deficiency leads to night blindness.
- carotenoids with provitamin A function such as ⁇ -carotene and ⁇ -cryptoxanthin, are known, and many carotenoids (astaxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin, capsanthin, capsorubin, curcubitaxanthin A, etc.) have this function. Does not exist. It is known that a carotenoid having a provitamin A function is positively accumulated in the liver when absorbed into the body, converted to vitamin A as necessary, and transferred to the retina.
- the antioxidant function is a function possessed by all carotenoids. Active oxygen is constantly generated in tissues, cells, organelles, etc. in the body, and this active oxygen is considered to contribute to lifestyle-related diseases, cancer, arteriosclerosis and the like. Substances having antioxidant power, such as carotenoids, are considered to be involved in maintaining health by eliminating active oxygen generated in the body. However, not all carotenoids absorbed in the body express an antioxidant function, and the expression of the antioxidant function depends on the strength of each carotenoid's antioxidant power and pharmacokinetics (transferability to tissues and cells). It has become a very important factor.
- Non-Patent Document 1 carotenoids having a 3,6-epoxy end group or a five-membered ring end group ( ⁇ -endo group) have a high antioxidant action, and there is no such end group. It has been reported that the antioxidant action (singlet oxygen scavenging action) is improved compared to carotenoids.
- carotenoids having a 3,6-epoxy end group or a five-membered ring end group include capsanthin, capsorbine, cucurbitaxanthin A, and capsanthin 3,6-epoxide, and carotenoids that do not have these end groups Typical examples of these include ⁇ -carotene, zeaxanthin, and lutein.
- FIG. 1 shows the structures of carotenoids having 3,6-epoxy end groups or five-membered ring end groups and those not having them.
- Carotenoids having a 3,6-epoxy end group or a five-membered ring end group are known not to be widely distributed throughout plants but to be localized to specific plant species.
- Capsicum plants such as paprika contain carotenoids having a 3,6-epoxy end group and carotenoids having a five-membered ring end group.
- cucurbits such as pumpkin contain carotenoids having 3,6-epoxy endo groups.
- Non-Patent Document 2 compares carotenoids present in red blood cells of Alzheimer patients and their spouses.
- the main carotenoids present in erythrocytes of healthy subjects are lutein, zeaxanthin, ⁇ -carotene, and ⁇ -cryptoxanthin, but erythrocytes of Alzheimer patients have decreased lutein, zeaxanthin, and ⁇ -cryptoxanthin.
- lipid peroxide is increasing, and it is reported that the function of erythrocytes is reduced due to the decrease of these three types of xanthophyll (particularly lutein), which may contribute to Alzheimer's disease.
- lutein particularly lutein
- Non-Patent Document 3 when chlorella containing high content of lutein was orally ingested by 12 healthy men and women for 4 weeks and examined carotenoids in erythrocytes, lutein increased and lipid peroxide in erythrocytes A decrease is reported. These results indicate that oral intake of carotenoids (specifically lutein) that can be transferred into erythrocytes is effective in improving erythrocyte function. However, lutein does not have a 3,6-epoxy end group or a five-membered ring end group at the terminal, and cannot exhibit a particularly high antioxidant effect.
- Non-Patent Document 3 discloses that erythrocytes contain carotenoids such as zeaxanthin, ⁇ -carotene, and ⁇ -cryptoxanthin in addition to lutein. , 6-epoxy end group or five-membered ring end group is not included, and a particularly high antioxidant action cannot be exhibited.
- Non-Patent Document 4 astaxanthin was orally administered to 30 healthy men and women for 12 weeks and carotenoids in erythrocytes were examined. Astaxanthin increased and lipid peroxide in erythrocytes decreased. Yes. Furthermore, Patent Document 1 reports that astaxanthin or an ester thereof has actions such as suppression of oxidative damage of erythrocytes, prevention of erythrocyte sclerosis, and stabilization of erythrocytes. Although astaxanthin does not have a 3,6-epoxy end group or a five-membered ring end group at the end, it has an extremely high antioxidant effect. However, from the disclosure of Non-Patent Document 3, astaxanthin is applied to erythrocytes. When the migration rate is calculated, it becomes 0.0089% or 0.0057% after 84 days of ingestion, and there is a disadvantage that the ability to migrate to red blood cells is extremely low.
- Non-Patent Document 5 discloses that carotenoids having an epoxy endogroup are not found in human blood and are not absorbed, and the conventional technology shows a particularly high antioxidant effect. At present, carotenoids having a 3,6-epoxy endo group are considered to have no ability to migrate to erythrocytes.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an agent for improving erythrocyte function, which has both a high antioxidant action and a high ability to migrate to red blood cells, and can effectively protect red blood cells from oxidative stress.
- the present inventor made extensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems. As a result, among the 3,6-epoxy end groups or carotenoids having a five-membered ring end group having high antioxidant activity, 3,6-epoxy end Only the cucurbitaxanthin A and / or derivatives thereof having a group have a significantly high ability to migrate to erythrocytes, and cucurbitaxanthin A and / or derivatives thereof can effectively protect erythrocytes from oxidative stress and improve erythrocyte function It was found to be effective as an agent.
