Description

Technical Field

[0001] This specification relates to a composition for promoting hair growth. Prior Technology

[0002] Hair primarily serves to protect the scalp from external irritants such as ultraviolet rays and contributes to a person's aesthetic appearance. However, in modern society, due to environmental pollution, strong ultraviolet radiation, and other natural factors, as well as physiological factors such as stress and hormonal imbalances, hair loss is becoming increasingly common. Unlike in the past when it was limited to adult men, hair loss now affects people of all ages and genders, making materials for the prevention and treatment of hair loss urgently needed.

[0003] Hair follicles, as the physiological organs of hair growth, repeat the hair growth cycle after birth, participating in the growth, maintenance, and shedding of hair. The hair growth cycle is divided into the anagen phase, in which hair is generated and actively grows; the catagen phase, in which hair degenerates; the telogen phase, in which hair is maintained until it falls out; and the exogen phase, in which hair loss occurs.

[0004] The exact cause of hair loss is still unknown, but it has been suggested that it may be due to factors such as the inhibition or weakening of the proliferation and function of dermal papilla cells, which are involved in regulating the hair cycle; abnormal hair cycle caused by the effects of male hormones; abnormal changes in the hair cycle caused by reduced blood flow to the scalp; medications such as anticancer drugs; mental stress; physical stimulation; and environmental pollution.

[0005] As is well known, dermal papilla cells, a type of specialized fibroblast within the hair bulb, interact with various epithelial cells within the hair follicle, playing a crucial role in hair follicle formation, hair regeneration, and hair growth. Therefore, the growth and proliferation of dermal papilla cells, as well as the inhibition of apoptosis, have become important targets in the development of drugs that maintain the hair growth phase and inhibit hair loss.

[0006] Minoxidil and finasteride, previously used as hair growth promoters and hair loss treatments, have been accompanied by side effects such as excessive hair growth and decreased sexual function. Furthermore, the specific mechanism of action of minoxidil remains unclear. Therefore, there is a need to develop biological materials that promote the proliferation of dermal papilla cells while having fewer side effects. Summary of the Invention

[0027] The present invention will now be described in detail.

[0028] On the one hand, this case provides a hair growth promoting composition in which camellia kaempferol glycoside is included as an active ingredient.

[0029] In this case, camellia refers to the camellia tree (Camellia japonica), an evergreen tree belonging to the Theaceae family, mainly distributed in East Asia, including Korea. Camellia oil is extracted from its seeds, and the wood is used as furniture and fine craft materials. In this case, the camellia can be made from all parts of the plant, including roots, stems, leaves, and flowers, or the entire plant (whole herb).

[0030] In this case, camellia kaempferol glycoside, as a kaempferol glycoside derived from camellia, can be prepared by extracting an extract from camellia using a solvent and removing impurities, sugars, and proteins from the extract using an ion exchange resin, but is not limited to this method. This camellia kaempferol glycoside may not contain saponins.

[0031] In one implementation example, the camellia kaempferol glycoside may be extracted from camellia oil meal.

[0032] In one implementation, the solvent may be water, an organic solvent, or a combination thereof. The organic solvent may include, but is not limited to, C1-C6 alcohols, acetone, ethane, ethyl acetate, carbon dioxide, or mixtures thereof.

[0033] In one implementation, the camellia kaempferol glycoside may include one or more selected from the group consisting of camellia kaempferol trisaccharide and camellia kaempferol tetrasaccharide.

Such dosage form compositions can be prepared according to general methods in the art.

[0047] In addition to the compounds described herein, the cosmetic compositions according to this specification may further include functional additives and ingredients typically found in cosmetic compositions. These functional additives may include ingredients selected from the group consisting of water-soluble vitamins, oil-soluble vitamins, high-molecular-weight peptides, high-molecular-weight polysaccharides, sphingolipids, and seaweed concentrates. The cosmetic compositions according to this specification may preferably include other ingredients that can synergistically enhance the main effects, without compromising the primary efficacy. Furthermore, the cosmetic compositions according to this specification may also include moisturizers, emollients, surfactants, UV absorbers, preservatives, bactericides, antioxidants, pH adjusters, organic and inorganic pigments, fragrances, cooling agents, or antiperspirants. The formulation amounts of these ingredients can be easily selected by a person skilled in the art without compromising the purpose and effects of this specification, and the formulation amounts, based on the total weight of the composition, may be from 0.001 to 10% by weight, specifically from 0.01 to 3% by weight.

[0048] In one embodiment, the composition may be a food composition. The dosage form of the food composition is not particularly limited; for example, it may be formulated as tablets, granules, pills, powders, liquids such as beverages, caramel, gels, sticks, tea bags, etc. For each dosage form of the food composition, in addition to the active ingredient, those skilled in the art can easily and appropriately select commonly used ingredients in the art to formulate it according to the dosage form or intended use, and when used simultaneously with other raw materials, it can induce a synergistic effect.

[0049] A food composition according to one embodiment may include various nutrients, vitamins, minerals (electrolytes), flavoring agents such as synthetic and natural flavoring agents, coloring agents, and thickeners (for cheese, chocolate, etc.), pectic acid and its salts, alginic acid and its salts, organic acids, protective colloidal thickeners, pH adjusters, stabilizers, preservatives, glycerin, alcohols, and carbonating agents used in carbonated beverages. Additionally, a food composition according to one embodiment may include natural fruit juice and fruit pulp used to make fruit juice beverages and vegetable beverages. The ingredients may be used alone or in combination. While the proportion of the additives is not critical, they typically range from 0 to 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the composition according to one embodiment.

[0050] In one embodiment, the composition may be a pharmaceutical composition. The pharmaceutical composition can be administered orally, non-orally, rectally, topically, transdermally, intravenously, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, etc. Dosage forms for oral administration may be tablets, pills, soft and hard capsules, granules, powders, fine granules, liquids, emulsions, or balls, but are not limited thereto.

[0054] The present invention will now be described in more detail through examples and other means. These examples are merely illustrative, and those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention is not limited by these examples. [Example 1] Preparation of Camellia Kaempferol Glycoside

[0055] At low temperature, 1 kg of camellia oil meal (Jeju Island) was pressed to remove oil, and 8 kg of 70% ethanol was added. Extraction was performed at 60°C for 8 hours using a heating extractor, followed by filtration using a filter press to obtain camellia oil meal extract. The extract was concentrated under reduced pressure at 50-60°C using a rotary vacuum concentrator until the solids content was approximately 50%, yielding 200 g of concentrate. The concentrate was diluted with purified water until the solids content was 10%. This solution was loaded onto a glass column packed with 2 L of ion exchange resin (HP-20), and washed with 10 L of purified water to remove impurities, sugars, and proteins. Then, 10 L of 30% ethanol was passed through to obtain the eluent. The eluent was concentrated under reduced pressure and freeze-dried to obtain 20 g of camellia kaempferol glycoside powder. The obtained camellia kaempferol glycoside powder was dissolved in 70% ethanol, and fractionated by reversed-phase chromatography under 0.1% TFA / water / 0.1% TFA / acetonitrile conditions to separate the components contained in each fraction. The separated components are compounds 1 to 4 as camellia kaempferol trisaccharides and compounds 5 to 8 as camellia kaempferol tetrasaccharides. Compounds 1 to 8 were found to each have the chemical formulas 1 to 8. The results of the reversed-phase chromatography are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1. [Chemical Formula 1] [Chemical Formula 2] [Chemical Formula 3] [Chemical Formula 4] [Chemical Formula 5] [Chemical Formula 6] [Chemical Formula 7] [Chemical Formula 8] [Table 1] Retention time (minute) area (%) Compound 5 + Compound 7 33.800 28.99 Compound 6 35.760 11.13 Compound 8 37.067 23.28 Compound 1 + Compound 2 45.585 18.92 Compound 3 + Compound 4 46.846 17.67 [Experimental Example 1] Evaluation of the effect of promoting the proliferation of hair follicle dermal papilla cells

[0056] Hair follicle papilla cells were isolated from human scalp tissue at the back of the head using a microscope and cultured for 14 days in culture dishes coated with collagen type I. After 72 hours of culture in DMEM (Dulbecco's modified eagles medium; HyClone GE Healthcare) containing antibiotics (1%), fungizone (0.1%), and 20% FBS, at 37°C and 5% CO2, the medium was replaced with DMEM containing 10% FBS. When the cells reached more than 90% confluence in the culture dish, the cultured cells were collected using 0.25% trypsin / 10mM EDTA (Welgene) and cultured for another 72 hours in DMEM containing 10% FBS, at 37°C and 5% CO2, before being used in subsequent experiments.

[0057] After seeding the cultured hair follicle papilla cells at 2000 cells / well in 96-well plates, they were cultured for 24 hours at 5% CO2 and 37°C. Camellia kaempferol glycosides from Example 1 were then treated with various concentrations (1 ppm, 2 ppm, 5 ppm, 10 ppm, 20 ppm, and 50 ppm) and cultured for 72 hours at 5% CO2 and 37°C. An untreated group served as the control. The cells were then cultured in CCK-8 (DONGJIN) for 2 hours, and the absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader. The measured absorbance values ​​were used to set the control value to 100, and the relative cell viability was calculated, as shown in Figure 2. [Experimental Example 2] Evaluation of the efficacy of inhibiting apoptosis in outer root sheath cells

[0058] Outer root sheath cells were isolated from human scalp tissue at the back of the head using a microscope and cultured for 14 days in culture dishes coated with collagen type I. After 72 hours of culture in DMEM (Dulbecco's modified eagles medium; HyClone GE Healthcare) containing antibiotics (1%), fungizone (0.1%), and 20% FBS, at 37°C and 5% CO2, the culture was replaced with epilife medium containing EDGS. When the cells reached over 90% confluence in the culture dish, they were collected using 0.25% trypsin / 10mM EDTA (Welgene), transferred to epilife medium containing EDGS, and cultured for another 72 hours at 37°C and 5% CO2 (until the cells reached over 90% confluence) before being used in subsequent experiments.

[0059] After treating the camellia kaempferol glycosides from Example 1 at various concentrations (1 ppm, 2 ppm, 5 ppm) for 4 hours, they were further incubated with DKK1, H2O2, and TGF beta 2, known hair loss inducing factors, and cultured overnight. Then, after culturing in CCK-8 (DONGJIN) for 2 hours, the absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader. The absorbance was used to set the control group (value = 100), and relative cell viability was calculated, as shown in Figure 3. The control group represents the group that received no treatment. [Experimental Example 3] Evaluation of antioxidant efficacy in outer root sheath cells

[0060] In Experiment 2, for the experiment, cultured outer root sheath cells were seeded at 10,000 cells / well onto 8-well slides and cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. After treatment with kaempferol glycosides (5 ppm) from Example 1, further culture was terminated, the cell culture medium was removed, and formalin solution was added for fixation at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. The fixative was removed, and the cells were washed three times within 3 minutes using washing buffer (PBS containing 0.1% BSA). After incubation at room temperature for 30 minutes using a permeabilization solution, the cells were reacted at room temperature for 30-60 minutes using blocking buffer (PBS containing 0.1-1% BSA). The antibody against the target protein (NRF2) was diluted in blocking buffer and incubated overnight at 4°C. After being removed and placed at room temperature, the antibody solution was removed once and washed four times within 3 minutes using washing buffer (PBS containing 0.1% BSA). The secondary antibody (conjugated with fluorescent dye) capable of targeting the primary antibody was diluted in blocking buffer and reacted at room temperature for 2 hours. Then, a mounting solution was applied, a coverslip was placed to prevent air bubbles, and the results were observed using a fluorescence microscope. Figure 4 shows the results. A control group (no treatment) was used.

[0061] As can be confirmed by Figure 4, when kaempferol glycosides are treated, the NRF2 protein (J Invest Dermatol. 2017 Feb;137(2):295-304, Oxidative Damage Control in a Human (Mini-) Organ: Nrf2 Activation Protects against Oxidative Stress-Induced Hair Growth Inhibition), a well-known antioxidant marker, moves into the nucleus of outer root sheath cells (arrows in Figure 4 indicate the movement of NRF2 protein into the nucleus). This confirms that kaempferol glycosides can inhibit apoptosis of outer root sheath cells. [Experimental Example 4] Evaluation of the efficacy of hair follicle length growth

[0062] Twenty hair follicle samples were isolated from each experimental group from 57-year-old women. Six isolated hair follicle samples were cultured in each well of 24-well plates on 500 μL of William's E medium containing 2 mM L-glutamine, 10 ng / mL hydrocortisone, 1% antibiotics, and 0.1% fungizone B. The 24-well plates were treated with camellia saponin B1 (0.1 ppm), camellia saponin B2 (0.1 ppm), and those described in Example 2 (0.01 ppm, 0.1 ppm). Untreated samples served as a control. The medium was replaced every 2–3 days. Hair growth length was measured on day 2 and day 5, as shown in Figure 5. Hair follicles were photographed using a stereomicroscope (Dongwon CNS, Korea) on day 7, as shown in Figure 6. [Dosage Form Example 1] Soap
