Embodiment 1

[0034] Embodiment 1: dopachrome tautomerase test (coconut juice)

[0035] Dopachrome tautomerase (DCT) activity was determined according to the method disclosed by Chakraborty et al., 1998, Effect of arbutin on melanogenic proteins in human melanocytes, Pigment Cell Res. 11:206-212. Specifically, frozen DOPA (0.5 mg per mL of 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 6.8) was mixed with Ag 2 O (30 mg Ag 2 (0: 1 mg DOPA) was mixed for about 1 minute and filtered through a 0.22 μm millipore filter. DCT was measured spectrophotometrically by adding a total of 0.1 mL of cell extract to 0.5 mL of freshly prepared dopachrome (-0.5 mg / mL). Reactions were carried out in plastic cuvettes at room temperature, after which the disappearance of absorption at 475 nm was followed. Phenylthiourea (1 mM) was added to the reaction mixture since the presence of tyrosinase in the cell extract may interfere with the assay. The percent conversion of dopachrome per mg of protein extract was calculated an...

Embodiment 2

[0036] Example 2: DHICA polymerase assay (coconut water)

[0037] DRICA polymerization was carried out according to the method in "Polymerization of 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-Carboxylic acid to melanin by the pmel17 / silver locus protein" published by Chakraborty et al. in Eur.J.Biochem.236:180-188 in 1996 Enzyme assay. Specifically, cell extracts (0.5 mL, 150-200 μg protein) were passed through a wheat germ agglutinin column (1 mL bed volume) equilibrated with lysis buffer. The bound material, which contains crude DHICA aggregation factor and other melanogenic proteins, was eluted with 0.5 mL of 1M N-acetylglucosamine. In a 0.5 ml reaction mixture containing the enzyme preparation to be assayed (20 μg protein from wheat germ agglutinin eluate) or the appropriate buffer blank, DRICA (0.5 mM), and 100 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0 . It also includes phenylthiourea, which is used to inhibit endogenous tyrosinase activity in the formulation.

Embodiment 3

[0039] Example 3: Melanosome Uptake Assay (Perilla Leaf Extract)

[0040] Melanosome isolation

[0041] Congenital cultures of B16 melanocytes produce moderate amounts of melanosomes. However, to induce increased melanosome formation in this cell line, hemiconnate (60%) cultured B16 cells were treated for approximately 36 hours with normal growth medium supplemented with 10 mM ammonium chloride (final concentration). The medium was then aspirated and the hyperpigmented cells were washed (2 x 2 ml) with distilled water to provide hypotonic stress to the cells. Aliquots (2 mL) of hypotonic lysis solution (0.02% NP-40 in water) were added to each plate and the plates were incubated at room temperature for approximately 5 minutes. Cell lysis was followed by light microscopy, and cytoplasm from three (3) dishes was submerged in a 15 ml conical tube and centrifuged at approximately (200xg) for 5 minutes to remove cellular debris . The resulting melanosome-containing supernatant ...

Abstract

There is provided a topical lightening composition having a melanin synthesis-regulating agent and a vehicle. There is also provided a topical lightening composition having an extract of perilla leaf and a vehicle. There is also provided a topical lightening composition having a lightening agent selected from the group consisting of coconut water, palm water, palm nut milk, pecan nut milk, almond nut milk, cashew nut milk, walnut nut milk, concentrates of the foregoing, and any combinations thereof, along with a vehicle. The compositions and methods of the invention are effective to lighten skin, hair, lips, and / or nails.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to lightening of the skin, hair, nails and / or lips. The present invention further relates to compositions and methods for lightening skin, hair, nails and / or lips. Background technique [0002] Consumers, especially in Asia, seek to lighten and reduce uneven pigmentation of the skin. Common skin conditions treated include freckles, age spots, dark spots, hyperpigmentation, discoloration, melasma, yellowing, and dark circles under the eyes. [0003] Many substances have been applied to the skin to lighten the skin. Such substances include hydroquinone, kojic acid, licorice and / or its derivatives, ascorbic acid / ascorbic acid derivatives, arbutin, bearberry, licorice glabra and its derivatives, Chlorella vulgaris extract, perilla extract , and coconut fruit extract. Perilla extracts have been disclosed as whitening agents in US Patent 5,980,904 and Japanese publications 07025742, 07187989, 10265322, 2001163759 and 2001181...
