Embodiment 1

[0150] Example 1: Obtaining Tripterygium wilfordii plant cell culture extract CCV enriched in pentacyclic triterpenes

[0151] The cultivation was carried out in a Sartorius Stedim Biotech (Germany) wave reactor (volume 5 L). The reactor was inoculated with Tripterygium wilfordii cell suspension from Erlenmeyer flasks (media composition, parameters as mentioned above). The decoy was performed with a decoy mixture (methyl jasmonate and chitin) after reaching the maximum biomass after about 17 days under continuous agitation. The culture was stopped after 15 days of induction. Most of the biomass was recovered by filtering the cell suspension through a nylon filter (20-50 μm). Approximately 1925 g of biomass was recovered from the 5 L suspension. The biomass was extracted with ethyl acetate (or isopropyl acetate) at a ratio of 2:1 (volume:weight) to biomass weight (here 3850 mL solvent for 1925 g biomass). The biomass / solvent mixture is then physically extracted by sonicat...

[0153] Example 2: Anti-Inflammation and Anti-MMP-9 of Two Extracts and Purified Molecules Duelin A, Duelin B, and Cherendol active

[0154] Two different extracts, derived from plant cell cultures, were tested in this example. Extract 2 was obtained according to Example 1, and Extract 1 was obtained from the same culture using a different inducement, ie methyl jasmonate and acetylsalicylic acid were used instead of methyl jasmonate and chitin. Extracts 1 and 2 are expressed as % of each triterpene component (Ducocin A: TA, Duelaccin B: TB, Celostrol: CEL) based on the total amount of TA, TB and CEL in the extract, see Table 1 below.

[0155] [Table 1]

[0156]

[0157] Extract stock solutions (dry weight of TA, TB and CEL) were quantified in μg / mL by HPLC (relative to standards). Test products were dissolved in DMSO (stock solution). For TA and TB, three concentrations were tested, 45, 135 and 405 ng / mL. For celandol, three concentrations were also tested, 15, 45 a...

Embodiment 3

[0186] Example 3: Antioxidant Activity of Two Extracts and Purified Molecules Duelin A, Duelin B and Cherendol

[0187] Oxidative stress is one of the possible reasons for the development of vitiligo. The purpose of this experiment was to measure the antioxidant activity of each pentacyclic triterpene and two extracts and compare it with vitamin C, a well-known positive control. The intube method used was adapted from the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Antioxidant Capacity) assessment method described by Davalos et al. (J Agric Food Chem 52(1):48-54, 2004). The ORAC index can evaluate the antioxidant capacity of each compound tested in Example 2. This test allows the evaluation and classification of the various compounds tested according to their antioxidant capacity against peroxyl radicals. AAPH (2,2'-Azobis-2-methyl-propionamidine, dihydrochloride) is a source of peroxy radicals. This test was used to simulate the kinetics of free radical degradation of fluorescein. This result...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition comprising at least one pentacyclic triterpene or one of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof for use in the treatment and/or prevention of vitiligo.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the use of a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one pentacyclic triterpene for the treatment of vitiligo. Background technique [0002] Vitiligo is a skin infection characterized by white patches on the hands, feet, face, or any other part of the body. These spots are caused by depigmentation, the disappearance of melanocytes. The severity of depigmentation varies, and the white spots vary in size. In some cases, body or head hair that grows in the depigmented area is also white. Vitiligo is neither contagious nor painful, but it can cause serious psychological distress. In fact, Vitiligo is often minimized and undermanaged by doctors. Individuals with dark skin are most prone to this condition. Vitiligo affects 0.5% to 1% of the world's population, all races combined. It usually appears between the ages of 10 and 30, with half of patients affected before the age of 20. Therefore, Vitiligo is quite ra...
