Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to a composition for treating atopic dermatitis and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Atopic dermatitis is an itchy, relapsing, chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by chronicity, recurrences, and a high incidence in children. Currently, the first-line treatment for atopic dermatitis is glucocorticoid anti-inflammatory drugs. However, topical glucocorticoids increase the risk of skin atrophy, especially in skin wrinkles, and also pose a risk of affecting growth and development, making them particularly detrimental to pediatric patients. In the past two years, inhibitors targeting inflammatory targets such as calcineurin, IL4, IL13, and JAK have been approved for clinical use in atopic dermatitis, improving the current state of atopic dermatitis treatment. However, due to the high cost of these drugs, some patients have drug tolerance issues, making them unsuitable for long-term use in chronic diseases. Therefore, the development of topical anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic drugs with minimal toxicity and side effects, strong activity, and low cost is of great value in the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

[0003] Ginsenosides are a class of anti-inflammatory compounds found widely in Panax genus plants (such as Panax ginseng, American ginseng, and Panax notoginseng). Rare and diol-type saponins exhibit potent immunomodulatory activity. Numerous studies have demonstrated that ginsenosides promote skin wound healing. Recent research suggests that saponins in the fibrous roots of Panax notoginseng contain more rare saponins, such as ginsenoside Rh1 and notoginsenoside R2, than in the taproot, potentially demonstrating enhanced anti-inflammatory properties. Artemether, an important antimalarial drug and artemisinin ether derivative, is less polar than artemisinin and exhibits improved skin penetration. Studies have shown that artemether is effective in treating atopic dermatitis, but carries significant risks of neurotoxicity and hematotoxicity. Oleanolic acid is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound widely found in plant extracts. Oleanolic acid is widely recognized for its anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects, but due to its hydrophobic nature, it has low bioavailability, which greatly limits its potential for oral administration. This suggests its potential for topical skin administration. Urinoside, an arbutin derivative, is believed to have intestinal barrier repair functions, as well as hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, and uric acid-lowering, liver-protective effects. However, its efficacy in treating atopic dermatitis has not yet been demonstrated. Therefore, the use of drug combinations to achieve dose reduction and increased efficacy is an important strategy for the application of these drugs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention proposes a composition consisting of Panax notoginseng extract, artemether, oleanolic acid, and uronoside. These four components synergistically enhance the anti-inflammatory efficacy of each component, demonstrating potential for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. This composition combines good safety with therapeutic efficacy for atopic dermatitis, and can be used at a low dosage. The components achieve synergistic effects, demonstrating excellent results. A search revealed no reports of this combination in the treatment and research of atopic dermatitis.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a composition for treating atopic dermatitis, wherein the weight ratio of each component is Panax notoginseng extract: artemether: uronoside: oleanolic acid = (2~4): (2~4): (1~2): (1~2).

[0006] Preferably, the Panax notoginseng extract is a Panax notoginseng root extract. The Panax notoginseng root extract contains 50%-80% total saponins, including 30%-50% ginsenoside Rb1, 5%-20% ginsenoside Rd, 5%-15% ginsenoside Rg1, 2%-10% notoginsenoside R2(s), and 0.5%-2% ginsenoside Rh1.

[0007] Preferably, according to the weight ratio, the optimal ratio of each component is: Panax notoginseng extract: artemether: uronoside: oleanolic acid = 2:2:1:1.

[0008] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a drug for preventing or treating atopic dermatitis, comprising the above-mentioned composition for treating atopic dermatitis and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0009] Preferably, the dosage form of the drug is any one of ointment, cream, external solution, tincture, lotion, powder or lyophilized powder.

[0010] In a third aspect, the present invention provides use of the above-mentioned composition for treating atopic dermatitis in cosmetics.

[0011] In a fourth aspect, the present invention provides a cosmetic comprising the above-mentioned composition for treating atopic dermatitis and an excipient acceptable in cosmetics.

[0012] Preferably, the dosage form of the cosmetic is any one of an emulsion, a cream, a gel or an aqueous solution.

[0013] Preferably, the cosmetic comprises the following components in parts by weight: Cetearyl alcohol, 2 parts; Squalane, 2 parts; Polydimethylsiloxane, 1 part; Glycerin, 6 parts; Sodium hyaluronate, 0.1 part; Lecithin, 0.5 parts; soothing anti-inflammatory agent, 1.2 parts; 0.2 parts of p-hydroxyacetophenone water, 87 parts; Wherein, the soothing anti-inflammatory agent is the above-mentioned composition for treating atopic dermatitis.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: In the epidermal inflammation model of cells, when the individual components were at a final concentration of 10 μg / ml, Panax notoginseng extract, uronoside, and oleanolic acid were unable to significantly inhibit the expression of three markers IL24, IL33, and CCL26. The inhibitory effect of 10 μg / ml artemether was: IL24 was downregulated to 50% of the model group, IL33 was downregulated to 76% of the model group, and CCL26 was downregulated to 89% of the model group. The composition provided by the present invention can significantly inhibit the expression of atopic dermatitis markers, and at the optimal ratio, IL24 was downregulated to 39% of the model group, IL33 was downregulated to 27% of the model group, and CCL26 was downregulated to 64% of the model group. The inhibitory efficacy was significantly stronger than that of the individual components at the same dose. Therefore, the advantage of the composition of the present invention is that the components have a good synergistic effect, which is far superior to the individual components.

[0015] Animal experiments have shown that the composition of the present invention can significantly alleviate pruritus in mice and improve their skin structure and clinical symptoms, with efficacy comparable to that of dexamethasone. Furthermore, at a similar dose, dexamethasone causes weight loss and spleen damage in mice, exhibiting significant immunotoxicity; whereas the composition effectively improves mouse weight without affecting spleen weight, demonstrating a superior safety profile.

[0016] The composition of the present invention has anti-inflammatory and anti-itching effects and can treat diseases such as atopic dermatitis. The active ingredients in this composition are all plant-derived, combining good safety with therapeutic efficacy for atopic dermatitis. Furthermore, the composition can be used at a low dosage, and the ingredients can achieve synergistic effects, demonstrating excellent results. It can be used in functional skin care products (creams, lotions, serums) and topical medications (scalds, ointments). BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

They were obtained from Beijing Weitonglihua Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd. (animal qualification certificate number: 110011241110592062). Animals were housed in individually ventilated cages, with no more than five animals per cage. The ambient temperature was maintained at 20-26°C, humidity at 35-75%, with a 12-hour light-on / 12-hour dark cycle, and free access to water and food. This experimental protocol and any modifications were reviewed and approved by the Laboratory Animal Welfare and Ethics Committee of Hefei Zhongke Puruisheng Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd. (IACUC-20241101).

[0063] This experiment set up a solvent group, a model group, a positive drug group, a low-dose group of the composition, and a high-dose group of the composition, with 6 mice randomly set up in each group. Acetone and olive oil were mixed in a volume ratio of 4:1 as a blank solvent, and the composition in the above Example 6 was selected as the test drug, that is, the mass ratio of the components of the composition was Panax notoginseng root extract: artemisinin: oleanolic acid: uroguanidine = 2:2:1:1, and two doses of 0.3% and 0.6% (W / V, g / ml) were set as the low-dose group and the high-dose group of the composition respectively. Dexamethasone was selected as the positive drug, and the dose was set to 0.04% (W / V, g / ml) as the positive drug group. The mouse atopic dermatitis model stimulated by MC903 was used, and blank solvent was used for administration as the model group. Non-modeling mice were set up and given blank solvent as the solvent group. The mouse MC903 atopic dermatitis model is specifically as follows: The back of the mouse was depilated, and the sensitizer MC903, or MC903 and the drug (Example 6) were applied to the depilatory area daily. The weight of the mouse was tested daily, the scratching behavior of the mouse was observed, and the skin condition of the test area was observed and the clinical score was recorded. After 14 days, the back of the mouse was photographed, and the mouse was sacrificed and the skin of the test area was collected. The mouse skin was stained with HE to observe the morphology of the epidermis and dermis. The results are shown in Figures 6-8 And Tables 4 to 6. Among them, Figure 7 In the figure, A is the total number of scratching times of the mouse within a fixed time (30 minutes); B is the total duration (seconds) of the mouse scratching behavior within a fixed time (30 minutes). Figure 8 In the figure, A is the HE staining image of mouse skin tissue (20X); B is the statistics of the epidermal thickness (micrometers) of mouse skin.

[0066] Table 4 Effects of the combination and dexamethasone on the spleen, epidermis and pruritus symptoms in mice with atopic dermatitis

[0067] The results showed that on the 14th day of treatment, the 0.6% dose of the composition significantly reduced the clinical score of atopic dermatitis in mice, and the results were close to those of the dexamethasone group ( Figure 4 ).

[0068] On the 14th day of treatment, the body weight of mice in the 0.6% dose of the composition group was significantly higher than that of mice in the model group and the dexamethasone group, indicating that this dose of the composition did not cause obvious toxic side effects in mice and was beneficial to the recovery of atopic dermatitis mice ( Figure 5 ).

[0069] On the 14th day of treatment, the spleen index of mice in the 0.6% dose group of the composition was not significantly different from that in the solvent group and the model group, while the spleen index of mice in the dexamethasone group decreased significantly, indicating that the composition at this dose did not produce similar immunotoxicity as dexamethasone ( Figure 6 ).

[0070] On the 14th day of treatment, the number of scratching times and the duration of scratching in the 0.3% and 0.6% dose combination groups and the dexamethasone group were significantly less than those in the model group, indicating that all three drugs can significantly relieve the itching symptoms of mice ( Figure 7 ).

[0071] On the 14th day of treatment, the epidermal thickness of mice in the 0.3% and 0.6% dose combination groups and the dexamethasone group was significantly thinner than that in the model group, and the epidermal structure was tighter, indicating that all three drugs can significantly improve the skin structure of mice and alleviate the epidermal thickening caused by atopic dermatitis ( Figure 8 ).
