Problems solved by technology

[0009] In view of the above, the problem proposed by the present invention is to develop a method for obtaining an aqueous extract from plant material that is specifically enriched in small RNAs and does not contain DNA, which is easy and inexpensive to implement on an industrial scale, The use of cellulolytic enzymes (cellulases, hemicellulases) or DNases is not mandatory, provides good yields of small RNAs, and does not have the disadvantages of the mentioned prior art methods, such as, for example, the use of detergents and Potentially Toxic Solvents

Embodiment 1

[0066] Embodiment 1: Preparation of the extract of the rice germ (rice) of Poaceae rich in small RNA

[0067] An aqueous extract enriched for low molecular weight RNA (with a maximum length of 150 nucleotides) was obtained from Oryza sativa from the family Poaceae (formerly Poaceae).

[0068] In the first step, 5% powdered rice germ was placed in distilled water, and 10 mM tetrasodium EDTA was added, or 50 g of rice germ powder was placed in 1 kg of distilled water, and 3.8 g tetrasodium EDTA was added. The pH in this step must be alkaline and between 10.5 and 11 for optimal enrichment of extracts with low molecular weight RNA.

[0069] The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours.

[0070] Then with proteases added at 2% each relative to the plant material used (by (which consists of serine endopeptidase) and bromelain) for enzymatic hydrolysis, or 1 g of each enzyme was added to the mixture. Adjust the pH to between 7.5 and 8.

[0071] The mixture was th...

Embodiment 2

[0078] Example 2: Study of the influence of pH and enzymatic hydrolysis in the implementation of the method

[0079] In order to study the influence of pH in the performance of the method according to the invention, extraction tests were carried out at different pH values ​​and on different types of plants.

[0080] These extractions were especially performed on rice germs (as described in Example 1). Comparable results can generally be obtained for all types of plants considered and more particularly described according to the invention.

[0081] Put 5% rice germ powder in water, or add 50 g of rice germ powder and 10 mM tetrasodium EDTA (or 3.8 g) in 1 kg of distilled water. The pH was adjusted to 7 or 11 by adding 1 to 3 mL of concentrated sodium hydroxide; the mixture was then stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours.

[0082] Sample collection was then performed during the extraction method to observe the enrichment of low-molecular-weight RNA for each extract after...

Embodiment 3

[0094] Example 3: Preparation of extracts of lentils (Lens esculenta) of the family Fabaceae rich in small RNAs

[0095] An aqueous extract rich in low molecular weight RNA (with a maximum length of 150 nucleotides) was obtained from lentils.

[0096] In the first step, the lentils are germinated the day before the extraction method, i.e. 40 g of lentils are covered with distilled water.

[0097] The next day, add distilled water to obtain the 4% equivalent of lentils used in the extraction method.

[0098] The lentils (40 g, a sufficient amount for 1 kg of distilled water) were then crushed and 10 mM tetrasodium EDTA (or 3.8 g) was added. The pH was adjusted to 11 by adding NaOH solution, and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours.

[0099] Filtration with high porosity is advantageously performed to remove solid debris.

[0100] Protease (relative to the plant material used, 2% bromelain and 2% ) was added to the filtrate for enzymatic hydrolysis, ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a process for obtaining an aqueous extract enriched with small RNAs having a maximum length of 150 nucleotides from a plant material. The invention is characterized in that itcomprises the following steps according to which: a) the plant material is placed in the presence of water; b) tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is added to the mixture obtained in a) at a pH of between 10.5 and 11; c) the pH of the mixture obtained in b) is then adjusted to a value of between 6 and 8; d) the mixture obtained in c) is purified so as to remove the plant material and to recover a crude aqueous extract; and e) the pH is verified and is readjusted if necessary to a value of between 6 and 8. The invention also relates to an aqueous extract of plant material, enriched with small RNAs having a maximum length of 150 nucleotides, capable of being obtained by means of such a process, and also to the compositions comprising such an extract and to the cosmetic uses thereof for combatting the signs of skin ageing, and improving skin moisturization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for obtaining an aqueous extract rich in small RNAs (ribonucleic acid) with a maximum length of 150 nucleotides (nt) from plant material, extracts derived from this method and compositions comprising such extracts Compositions and their cosmetic use. Background technique [0002] Routine protocols for the extraction of ribonucleic acid (RNA, low molecular weight RNA) performed in laboratories and therefore on a small scale must be performed under a chemical hood because these methods involve the use of solvents such as phenol and Chloroform (Zumbo, P. 2014 "Phenol-chloroform Extraction," 2014). These solvents are added to the aqueous phase of lysed cells or very finely crushed plant or animal tissues, or directly to crushed preparations produced in the presence of liquid nitrogen. The solution thus obtained was centrifuged at a high speed of approximately 10,000 g at 4°C to generate two well-separated phases,...
