Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cosmetics, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide. Background Art

[0002] The skin is the first layer of the body's defense against external factors, and the barrier function of the skin is maintained and supported by a healthy stratum corneum. The stratum corneum of the skin is composed of keratinocytes and intercellular lipids, and is usually described as a "brick wall structure". The "bricks" are keratinocytes, the "rebars" are the desmosomes connecting the keratinocytes, and the "cement" is the intercellular lipids. Among them, intercellular lipids are composed of 50% ceramides, 25% cholesterol, 15% free fatty acids, and very small amounts of phospholipids and other lipids. The lipid composition of intercellular lipids will change significantly during the differentiation process from the basal layer to the stratum corneum, thereby preventing the abnormal loss of water and electrolytes in the body, while preventing the invasion of harmful substances and maintaining the body's homeostasis.

[0003] As the main component of intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum of the skin, ceramide can not only help the skin lock in moisture, but also promote the self-repair of the skin barrier and regulate skin cells. It has been found that there are 16 natural ceramides of different subtypes of ceramide in the stratum corneum of the skin. Cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide, also known as ceramide E, is a synthetic ceramide-like substance. Studies have shown that ceramide E can not only repair the skin barrier function, but also inhibit the production of inflammatory factors, effectively reduce the amount of transepidermal water loss, enhance the hydration of the skin, and reduce the severity of skin damage. It is a strong and effective cosmetic ingredient and is suitable for all kinds of skin care products. At present, with the gradual increase in the market demand for cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide, the synthesis requirements of cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide are constantly increasing. The current synthesis methods of cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide are relatively scarce, and there are many impurities, low purity and high cost, which makes it difficult to achieve industrial production.

[0056] Test 1: Repair efficacy test of 1% ceramide E high moisturizing repair cream

[0057] The 3D epidermal skin model has been used as an animal test and model substitute in fields such as toxicology and skin biology. It has a multi-layered structure, physiological and metabolic functions that are highly similar to natural skin. It is of great significance in simulating the process of cosmetics penetrating into the body and causing toxicity to the deep layers of the skin.

[0058] A healthy skin barrier is formed by tight junctions of keratinocytes. Flaglin (FLG), loricrin (LOR), and claudin-1 play an important role in the formation of a healthy skin barrier. Loricrin is equivalent to the armor of keratinocytes, making them stronger, while Flaglin supports the internal structure of keratinocytes. Claudin-1 is a skeleton protein component of cell connections and participates in the regulation of cell material flow.

[0059] The test used sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) to stimulate the 3D epidermal skin model The repair efficacy of the sample to be tested was evaluated by detecting the changes in tissue morphology and the content of FLG, LOR, and Claudin-1.

[0060] Observation of skin model tissue morphology results:

[0062]

[0063] (1) Prepare 0.1% SLS and positive control (WY14643) working solutions; (2) Transfer the model to a 6-well plate (add 0.9 mL EpiGrowth culture solution in advance), mark the test group number, add 25 μL 0.1% SLS solution to the surface of the NC group, PC group and sample group, and incubate for 30 min; (3) After the incubation, add 0.9 mL of model culture solution containing WY14643 to each well of the PC1 group, and take 12.5 μL of the working solution of the sample to be tested and add it to the surface of the model in the sample group. Apply it evenly and place it in a CO2 incubator. 2 Incubator (37°C, 5% CO 2 ) and incubate for 24 h; (4) After the incubation, wash the remaining test substance with sterile PBS solution and wipe off the remaining liquid with a sterile cotton swab.

[0064] After cleaning, the model was fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in tissue, sliced, and stained with H&E. The slices were collected and photographed using a microscope. Plus image processing software was used for analysis. The test results are shown in Figure 2 shown.

[0068]

[0069] The specific operation of the experiment is consistent with the 3D epidermal skin model tissue morphology observation operation.

[0070] The model used for testing was removed by ring cutting and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 hours, and then immunofluorescence detection was performed. The images were taken and analyzed under a microscope, and the protein increase rate was calculated. The test results are as follows: Figure 3 shown.

[0074] (II) Soothing effect test of 1% ceramide E high moisturizing repair cream:

[0075] After foreign irritants and allergens enter the skin, they trigger allergic reactions and inflammatory reactions. Inflammatory factors stimulate the production of mediators such as histamine, prostaglandin D2, and leukotrienes, and the activation of proteases, causing the human body to produce heat, itching, pain, etc. Therefore, the soothing effect of cosmetics can be evaluated by reducing the release of cytokines such as inflammatory factors.
