Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cosmetic formulas, and in particular to a composition containing a roxburghii roxburghii extract and a tetrapeptide and having anti-wrinkle and firming effects, and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Anoectochilus roxburghii is a perennial herbaceous plant of the genus Anoectochilus in the Orchidaceae family. Also known as golden thread orchid, it also has other names such as bird ginseng, golden thread tiger-head banana, and golden thread bone-clearing. It is mentioned in the Chinese Materia Medica Encyclopedia, the National Compendium of Chinese Herbal Medicines, the Chinese Materia Medica, and the Fujian Materia Medica. It is rich in polysaccharides, steroids, organic acids, terpenes, alkaloids, volatile oils, flavonoids, and glycosides, and exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, antioxidant, and anti-HBV activities.
[0003] Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 can smooth wrinkles and tighten the skin by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. It also improves skin firmness and hydration, restoring smoothness and elasticity. It is a small molecule peptide widely used in anti-wrinkle and firming cosmetics.
[0004] Decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride is a chemical ingredient with significant antioxidant properties, protecting collagen and elastin from oxidative stress, thereby maintaining healthy skin structure. Furthermore, it possesses a stronger positive charge and does not form intramolecular salts, resulting in improved adsorption and permeability on the skin surface. Therefore, it is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products.
[0005] Arginine / lysine peptides, also known as conopeptides or conotoxins, are peptides composed of the amino acids arginine and lysine with diverse applications in cosmetics and personal care products. Arginine / lysine peptides are sequenced and synthesized to exhibit highly potent muscle relaxants. This muscle relaxant effect can rapidly reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles on the skin's surface, providing an immediate anti-wrinkle effect.
[0006] Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, also known as Argireline or Hexapeptide, is a neurotransmitter-inhibiting biomimetic peptide composed of six amino acids. Its primary mechanism of action is to block the release of neurotransmitters, reducing muscle contraction and achieving anti-wrinkle and anti-aging effects. It also promotes collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and radiance, and increasing skin moisture and hydration.
[0007] Anoectochilus roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine polypeptide, and acetyl hexapeptide-8 are safe and mild to all skin types. The present invention first conducts cell experiments on Anoectochilus roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine polypeptide, and acetyl hexapeptide-8, and finds that they have a synergistic effect. Subsequently, human efficacy verification is conducted, and it is found that they have good anti-wrinkle efficacy. Therefore, the development of a composition of Anoectochilus roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine polypeptide, and acetyl hexapeptide-8 has great development prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0039] Table 3 Anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy test results of tetrapeptide composition Combining Tables 2 and 3, it can be seen that the anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy test results of the tetrapeptide combination are superior to those of palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine peptide solution, and acetyl hexapeptide-8 alone. The optimal ratio of tetrapeptide combination 3, namely palmitoyl tripeptide-5: decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride: arginine / lysine peptide solution: acetyl hexapeptide-8, is 0.1%: 0.1%: 0.0002%: 0.001%.
[0040] Step 3: Anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy test of different concentrations of Anoectochilus roxburghii tetrapeptide compositions The following three different test concentration ratios of the roxburghii extract and the tetrapeptide composition were used to perform anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy tests according to the experimental procedure of step 1.
[0041] 1) Anoectochilus roxburghii tetrapeptide composition 1 Golden thread extract: palmitoyl tripeptide-5: decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride: arginine / lysine peptide solution: acetyl hexapeptide-8 = 750: 500: 500: 1: 5 (i.e. 0.15%: 0.1%: 0.1%: 0.0002%: 0.001%); 2) Anoectochilus roxburghii tetrapeptide composition 2 Anoectochilus roxburghii extract: palmitoyl tripeptide-5: decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride: arginine / lysine peptide solution: acetyl hexapeptide-8 = 1500: 500: 500: 1: 5 (i.e. 0.3%: 0.1%: 0.1%: 0.0002%: 0.001%); 3) Anoectochilus roxburghii tetrapeptide composition 3 Anoectochilus roxburghii extract: palmitoyl tripeptide-5: decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride: arginine / lysine peptide solution: acetyl hexapeptide-8 = 2500: 500: 500: 1: 5 (i.e. 0.5%: 0.1%: 0.1%: 0.0002%: 0.001%); Table 4 Test results of the anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy of the Anoectochilus roxburghii tetrapeptide composition Combining Tables 3 and 4, it can be seen that the anti-wrinkle and firming efficacy test results of the combination of roxburghii extract and tetrapeptide are superior to those of the tetrapeptide combination. When the concentration ratio of roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine peptide, and acetyl hexapeptide-8 is within the range of (750-2500):500:500:1:5, the five active ingredients can produce a synergistic effect and exert significant anti-wrinkle and firming effects. Among them, the ratio of roxburghii extract: palmitoyl tripeptide-5: decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride: arginine / lysine peptide solution: acetyl hexapeptide-8 = 1500:500:500:1:5 (i.e. 0.3%:0.1%:0.1%:0.0002%:0.001%) has the best effect.
[0042] 2. Determination of the efficacy of improving fine lines around the eyes The determination of improvement of fine lines around the eyes was based on 30 Asian adult subjects (age: 35.64±0.52) using a 0.15% carbomer hydrogel system product containing a roxburghii extract complex (roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine peptide and acetyl hexapeptide-8 at a concentration ratio of 750:500:500:1:5=0.15%:0.1%:0.1%:0.0002%:0.001%) for 28 consecutive days under normal conditions. The skin wrinkle improvement rate was measured using the PRIMOS-CR instrument to evaluate the anti-wrinkle efficacy of the composition.
[0043] The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown in the results, after 28 days of using a 0.15% carbomer hydrogel system product containing a complex of roxburghii extract (roxburghii extract, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, decarboxylated carnosine hydrochloride, arginine / lysine peptide and acetyl hexapeptide-8 at a concentration ratio of 750:500:500:1:5 = 0.15%:0.1%:0.1%:0.0002%:0.001%), fine lines around the eyes were significantly improved, with an improvement rate of 15.81% ( P <0.05).
