Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of cosmetics, and in particular relates to a composition comprising plant fruit oil and its application in improving skin barrier function. Background Art

[0002] The skin is the largest organ in the human body and the first natural line of defense covering the surface of the body. Its biggest function is protection. It can effectively protect against various external stimuli and regulate the loss of skin moisture from the inside. These are the barrier functions of the skin. Then, with the improvement of living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for their makeup. In the process of pursuing beauty, there have been many cases of skin barrier damage caused by improper skin care, improper repair after medical aesthetics, skin inflammation and other reasons. Oil can form an oil film barrier on the surface of the skin, so that external adverse factors cannot irritate the skin, protect the skin, inhibit the evaporation of skin moisture and moisturize.

[0003] According to the source and chemical composition of oils and fats, they can be mainly divided into: plant oils and fats, animal oils and fats, mineral oils and fats and synthetic oils. Plant oils and fats are favored by many skin care products because of their skin-friendly texture, close to the structure of human sebum membrane, good permeability, deep penetration and nourishment of the skin. Plant oils and fats used in cosmetics mainly come from plant fruits, seeds and germs, and some also come from other parts of plants such as leaves, skins, roots, petals and stamens. The oils and fats contained in plant fruits mainly include avocado tree (Butyrospermum parkii) fruit butter (also known as shea butter), olive (Olea europaea) fruit oil (also known as olive oil), apricot (Prunus armeniaca) kernel oil (also known as sweet almond oil), avocado (Persea gratissima) fruit oil, sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) fruit oil, coconut (Cocos nucifera) fruit oil, orange (Citrus junos) fruit oil, bergamot (Citrus aurantium bergamia) fruit oil, citron (Citrus bedica limonum) fruit oil, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit oil, dog rose (Rosa canina) fruit oil, pepper (Piper nigrum) fruit oil, Brazilian nectarine (Caryocar brasiliense) fruit oil, flat-leaf vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) fruit oil, anise (Pimpinella anisum fruit oil, Mauritia flexuosa fruit oil, Juniperus communis fruit oil, Litsea cubeba fruit oil, Citrus unshiu fruit oil, Astrocaryum vulgare fruit oil, Rosa multiflora fruit oil, and Coriandrum sativum fruit oil.

[0004] Shea butter is also called shea resin. It has three colors: ivory white, beige and yellow. The darker the color, the better the effect. Shea butter is directly extracted from the fruit of the African shea tree. It has a soft and smooth texture and is the most effective natural moisturizer. It has been widely used in the field of cosmetics. For example, the document Chen Peifeng, Application of Shea Butter in Cosmetics, Fujian Light Textiles [J], 2003, 12 (175): 1-4 points out that shea butter can be used in skin care lotions and creams as an emollient to play a strong moisturizing effect. It can also be used in lipsticks, lip glosses and sunscreen products. It has good adhesion, is soft and non-greasy, and can help increase the SPF value of the sun protection factor. In addition, shea butter can be obtained by fractionation of edible oil shea butter. For example, the literature Huang Xianxiao, Research on the extraction process of bioactive substances in shea butter, Chinese Oils and Fats [J], 2015, 40(4): 69-73 proposed that shea butter can be used as a substitute for cocoa butter to make chocolate and candy. Shea butter is close to the various indicators of human sebum secretion, contains rich non-saponifiable components, is easily absorbed by the human body, can prevent dryness and cracking, further restore and maintain the natural elasticity of the skin, protect the skin barrier function, and also play an anti-inflammatory role.

[0005] Olive oil is a natural oil extracted from fresh olive fruits by appropriate methods. It is widely used in the pharmaceutical and daily chemical industries. For example, the document Ma Xiaoyuan, Research Progress on the Efficacy of Natural Vegetable Oils in Sunscreen Cosmetics, China Oils and Fats [J], 2021, 46(1):71-75, states that the polyphenols contained in olive oil have the functions of absorbing ultraviolet rays and anti-oxidation, and can also eliminate facial wrinkles and prevent skin aging. The document Wang Chengzhang, Development History and Industry Prospects of Chinese Olive Oil, Biomass Chemical Engineering [J], 2013, 47(2):41-46 states that in medicine, olive oil can enhance the digestive system, reduce cardiovascular diseases and prevent cancer. At the same time, the oleic acid contained in olive oil can lower blood pressure and balance blood lipids and blood sugar. Olive oil has a slightly heavy feel and is very suitable for dry skin. The squalene and fatty acids it contains can be quickly absorbed by the skin, effectively maintaining skin elasticity and moisture. The rich monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, and phenolic substances it contains can eliminate facial wrinkles, prevent skin aging, and have the effects of skin care, hair care, and preventing chapped hands and feet.

[0006] Sweet Almond Oil softens and conditions the skin and is an excellent repair and moisturizer for dry, cracked, itchy or irritated skin, and is especially suitable for dry and sensitive skin.

[0007] Avocado oil is used as a lubricant in cosmetics to make the skin smooth. It has good permeability and moisturizing properties, and can promote skin cell regeneration. It is very effective in rebuilding skin structure and repairing sunburn and dry skin.

[0008] Coconut oil is a saturated fat with stable lipids. It is not easily oxidized and attacked by free radicals. Its strong antioxidant ability can help the human body prevent the production of free radicals. Therefore, it can be used for beauty and skin care. Its emulsifying stabilization and antioxidant properties can make cosmetics more even and delicate.

[0009] Skin barrier generally refers to the physical barrier of the skin, including the stratum corneum of the epidermis and the sebum membrane located on the surface of the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum is located in the outermost layer of the epidermis and has a "brick-wall structure", in which "bricks" refer to keratinocytes and "mortar" refers to intercellular lipids. In the process of skin barrier formation, more than 200 genes are highly related to the skin barrier. For example, the barrier factors related to the formation of the keratin capsule are filaggrin (FLG), loricrin (LOR), intracellular leukocyte protein (IVL), transglutaminase 1 (TGM1), and the barrier moisturizing-related factors are caspase 14 (CASP14), HMGCoA reductase (HMGCR), aquaporin 3 (AQP3) and the intercellular junction-related factor of keratinocytes, zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1).

[0010] Specifically, filaggrin (FLG) is an important component protein of the cornified envelope of the outer layer of the epidermis. It is mainly present in the granular layer and the clear layer of the epidermis and is an important component structure of the skin barrier. It can be further degraded into hydrophilic free amino acids and water-absorbing derivatives, which help the skin store moisture, maintain the skin's moisture content, and have a moisturizing effect. Loricrin (LOR) is the main component of the cornified envelope and plays an important role in the barrier function of the epidermis. Indigoferin (IVL) is mainly expressed in the upper part of the spinous cell layer and the granular layer. It is a marker protein for keratinocyte differentiation and is located in the outer layer of the cornified envelope. It covalently binds to ceramides containing hydroxyl-OH, thereby connecting the lipid matrix and cornified cells to play a role. The characteristic resistance and insolubility of the cornified envelope are based on the formation of very stable isopeptide bonds catalyzed by transglutaminase 1 (TGM1).

[0011] HMGCoA reductase (HMGCR) is the rate-limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis. It exists in the endoplasmic reticulum and catalyzes the synthesis of methyldihydroxyvaleric acid. After decarboxylation and phosphorylation, squalene is generated. Finally, squalene is cyclized to lanosterol and then converted to cholesterol. Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is the most abundant aquaporin subtype in the AQPs family. Its expression in the epidermis has a spatial hierarchy. It is mainly expressed in the basal layer, spinous cell layer, and granular layer of the human epidermis, and gradually disappears in the stratum corneum. This spatial distribution is consistent with the water content distribution of the skin: the water content of the basal layer and the upper part of the basal layer is about 75%, while the stratum corneum is only about 10%-15%. The high expression of AQP3 in the basement membrane zone can promote the transport of water, glycerol and urea, making the extracellular environment of the basal layer closer to a neutral equilibrium state; and the closer to the stratum corneum, the less AQP3 is expressed, the water content decreases significantly, and the internal environment of the skin gradually becomes acidic. In addition, AQP3 plays an important role in the transport of glycerol in the stratum corneum. AQP3 transports endogenous glycerol into the epidermis, directly or indirectly affecting the skin's moisturizing effect.

[0012] Tight junctions are an important component of the physical barrier, mostly appearing in the epidermis of the skin, located on the apical side of the gaps between adjacent cells. Tight junctions are composed of different types of transmembrane proteins and intracellular cytoplasmic proteins. Transmembrane proteins include CLDN1 and OCLN, while cytoplasmic proteins include zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1). ZO-1 is a cytoplasmic protein belonging to the membrane-bound guanylate kinase protein family. It aggregates OCLN and CLDN1 through extracellular signal transduction pathways to form basic cell connection strips. ZO-1 is the most characteristic cytoplasmic protein in the skin barrier function.

[0013] Phyto Bionic Sebum (PBS technology) is a technology that selects a variety of natural plant oils and simulates the natural lipid components in the skin barrier structure through scientific proportions. It replenishes the unsaturated fatty acids necessary for the skin's stratum corneum, such as linolenic acid and linoleic acid, and replenishes the lipid components missing from the skin. It is compatible with sebum, thereby quickly repairing the skin barrier and restoring the skin to a healthy, moisturized and lustrous state.

[0014] Among them: vegetable oils are mainly derived from plant fruits (for example: avocado oil, olive oil, almond oil, avocado oil, sea buckthorn oil, coconut oil, orange oil, bergamot oil, citron oil, tomato oil, dog rose oil, pepper oil, Brazilian nectarine oil, flat-leaved vanilla oil, anise oil, maury palm oil, juniper fruit oil, mountain pepper oil, Wenzhou mandarin oil, star palm oil, wild rose oil and coriander oil, etc.), seeds (for example: jojoba seed oil, safflower seed oil, white pondweed seed oil, sunflower seed oil, macadamia seed oil, castor seed oil, peony Seed oil, grape seed oil, grapefruit seed oil, apple seed oil, pomegranate seed oil, watermelon seed oil, zucchini seed oil, linseed oil, rapeseed oil, sesame seed oil, borage seed oil, walnut seed oil, cottonseed oil, tea seed oil, coix seed oil, papaya seed oil, raspberry seed oil, baobab seed oil, calendula seed oil, balsam pear seed oil, moringa seed oil, pecan seed oil, perilla seed oil, babassu seed oil and white lupine seed oil, etc.) and germ (for example: rice germ oil, wheat germ oil, oat germ oil and corn germ oil, etc.), and some are also derived from other parts of the plant such as leaves, skin, roots, petals and stamens.

[0015] The present invention unexpectedly found that plant fruit oils (such as shea butter, olive oil, etc.) have skin barrier-related effects, can enhance skin barrier vitality and promote the expression of skin barrier-related factors FLG, LOR, IVL, TGM1, CASP14, HMGCR, AQP3 and ZO-1.

[0093] Receive the 3D epidermal reconstruction model, check the packaging integrity, check the number of models, check the maintenance culture medium, and check the color and volume of the culture medium. After confirmation, start the model recovery.

[0094] Perform the recovery operation in a biosafety cabinet. Take a certain number of 12-well plates, add 2 ml / well of maintenance medium in the first row, then take out the 3D reconstructed epidermal model with tweezers, carefully remove the surface gel with a cotton swab, put it into the well containing maintenance medium, and recover for 24 hours. One 12-well plate can recover 4 3D reconstructed epidermal models. Culture conditions: 5% CO2, 37℃ constant temperature incubator.

[0095] 3D reconstructed epidermal model injury treatment and sample addition

[0096] A 1.5% (mass-volume ratio) sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution was prepared using 1× phosphate buffered saline (DPBS) solution.

[0097] The model was divided into a blank control group (no treatment, 3 replicates), a negative control group (damage treatment with 1.5% SDS, 3 replicates), and sample groups of Examples 1-6 and Examples 8-9 (each sample 3 replicates).

[0098] First, add 2 ml / well of maintenance medium to the second row of the 12-well plate, and then use forceps to transfer the 3D reconstructed epidermis model in the first row to the corresponding second row.

[0099] Use a pipette to drip 50 microliters of 1.5% SDS solution on the surface of the negative control group and the sample groups of Examples 1-6 and 8-9, and ensure uniform coverage, and incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, immediately wash with 1×DPBS, and gently wipe the residual liquid with a cotton swab. Then use a piston displacement pipette (M25) to take 15 microliters of sample and apply it on the surface of the sample group model that has been damaged (1.5% SDS) for 24 hours. All models are placed in a cell culture incubator, and the culture conditions are: 5% CO2, 37°C constant temperature incubator culture.

[0100] 3D reconstructed epidermal model vitality test

[0101] Prepare 3 mg / ml Thiazole Blue (MTT) stock solution in 1×DPBS, and dilute the MTT stock solution to 0.3 mg / ml in the test medium. Add 2 ml / well of the diluted MTT solution to the third row of the 12-well plate.

[0102] Use a 50 ml continuous pipette to absorb 1×DPBS, rinse the sample on the surface of the model (do not rinse directly at the sample, but at the side wall of the skin model support frame), then use a cotton swab to absorb the residual liquid and put it into the MTT solution in the third row of the 12-well plate. Finally, put it in a cell culture incubator and incubate it in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 3 hours.

[0103] To prepare acidic isopropanol, add 1.8 ml of hydrochloric acid to 500 ml of isopropanol. Take the corresponding number of 1.5 ml small centrifuge tubes (EP tubes) of the model and add 500 μl of acidic isopropanol to each tube. After the epidermal tissue is incubated in MTT for 3 hours, remove the epidermal tissue with a hole punch, separate the epidermal tissue from the collagen base underneath with two small elbow tweezers, turn the epidermal tissue over, and then transfer the epidermal tissue and the collagen base together to the 1.5 ml EP tube containing acidic isopropanol. Shake the EP tube on a vortex to mix well and place it in a 4°C refrigerator for 72 hours for color extraction. At the same time, prepare an EP tube containing 1 ml of acidic isopropanol as a blank well for microplate reader detection.

[0104] Take out the 1.5 ml EP tube containing acidic isopropanol and skin model from the 4°C refrigerator, shake and mix the solution, take 150 μl of the extraction solution from each tube and transfer it to a 96-well plate, take it 3 times and add it to the 96-well plate. At the same time, prepare 3-6 wells of acidic isopropanol as a blank control during the detection to exclude the background optical density value (OD value). Read the OD value at a wavelength of 570 nanometers. Calculate the relative activity of each group of models according to the following formula (the blank control group is 100%):

[0105]

[0106] 3. Result judgment

[0107] The blank control group was an undamaged group with a relative activity of 100%; the relative activity of the negative control group was controlled at 40-60% compared with the blank control group; the relative activity of the sample group was higher than that of the negative control group, indicating that the sample group had the ability to promote barrier repair, and the relative activity of the sample group was lower than that of the negative control group, indicating that the sample group did not have the ability to promote barrier repair.

[0108] Table 1: Relative activity of tissues in each group detected by MTT method

[0109]

[0110] As shown in Table 1, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the blank control group was 100%, and the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the negative control group (1.5% SDS treatment) was 41.0%. The average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 0%) of Example 1 was 48.4%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 0.5%) of Example 2 was 64.1%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 2.5%) of Example 3 was 75.5%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 5%) of Example 4 was 75.3%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 7.5%) of Example 5 was 76.1%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 10%) of Example 6 was 76.1%, the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 5% + olive oil 5%) of Example 8 was 69.0%, and the average relative activity of the skin model tissue of the sample (shea butter 100%) of Example 9 was 68.4% (see Table 1).

One 12-well plate can recover 4 3D reconstructed epidermal models. Culture conditions: 5% CO2, 37℃ constant temperature incubator.

[0124] 3D reconstructed epidermal model sample processing

[0125] The model was divided into sample groups of Examples 1, 4, 7, and 8 (each sample had 3 replicates) and a positive control group (rosiglitazone, 3 replicates).

[0126] First, add 2 ml / well of maintenance medium to the second row of the 12-well plate, and then use forceps to transfer the 3D reconstructed epidermis model in the first row to the corresponding second row.

[0127] Use a piston displacement pipette (M25) to add 15 μl of rosiglitazone solution (100 μM, dissolved in 1×DPBS) to the positive control group, add 15 μl of sample to the sample group, and use a nozzle to gently apply the sample evenly on the surface of the skin model, and repeat three times for each sample. All models were placed in a cell culture incubator and cultured for 24 hours. Culture conditions: 5% CO2, 37°C constant temperature incubator culture.

[0128] 3D reconstructed epidermal model to collect total RNA samples

[0129] Use a 50 ml continuous pipette to absorb 1×DPBS, rinse the sample on the surface of the model (do not rinse directly at the sample, but at the side wall of the skin model support frame), and then use a cotton swab to absorb the residual liquid. Cut the epidermal tissue with a punch, and use two small elbow tweezers to separate the epidermal tissue from the collagen base underneath. Put the epidermal tissue into an EP tube containing 1 ml of total RNA extraction reagent (TRIzol), and use a 1 ml RNase-free pipette nozzle to repeatedly blow the epidermal tissue until only the transparent stratum corneum remains. Subsequently, add 0.2 ml of chloroform to the original EP tube, shake vigorously, and centrifuge at low temperature and high speed for 15 minutes. Use an RNase-free pipette nozzle to take 500 μl of the upper aqueous phase, then add an equal volume of pre-cooled (minus 20 degrees) isopropanol, invert and mix, and centrifuge at low temperature and high speed for 10 minutes. After centrifugation, the RNA forms a white flake precipitate at the bottom of the EP tube. Rinse twice with 75% ethanol, remove the residual ethanol with a centrifuge and a nozzle, open the lid and dry at room temperature until transparent. Dissolve with 40 microliters of RNase-free H2O and mix well. Then measure the RNA concentration with a micro-spectrophotometer Nanodrop, and detect the integrity of the RNA with agarose gel electrophoresis. The dissolved total RNA of the epidermal model tissue is used for subsequent experiments or stored at -80℃ for long-term storage after aliquoting.

[0130] Quantitative detection of skin barrier-related genes by RT-qPCR
