Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of skin care products, in particular to a chitosan- and dextran-modified skin care product and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, as people pay more attention to skin health and beauty, the market demand for skin care products has continued to increase. Chitosan and dextran, as natural polysaccharides, are widely used in the fields of medicine and cosmetics due to their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. Studies have shown that chitosan has good antibacterial, moisturizing and wound healing properties; dextran is a polysaccharide composed of glucose units, which performs well in promoting cell proliferation and repair. Many relevant patents and literature show that the use of chitosan or dextran alone can improve certain functions of the skin, but there is still room for improvement.
[0003] At present, there are many skin care products containing chitosan or glucan on the market. The main function of chitosan is to lock in moisture by forming a protective film, and its antibacterial properties can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria on the skin surface. Glucan helps improve the overall condition of the skin by promoting the regeneration and repair of skin cells. However, in the prior art, the use of chitosan and glucan alone often fails to give full play to their synergistic effect, resulting in limited effects in improving skin efficacy. Therefore, exploring the synergistic effect of modified chitosan and modified glucan has become a hot topic in current research.
[0004] Although chitosan and glucan each have significant skin improvement effects, in actual applications, single-ingredient products often cannot meet consumers' demands for multiple skin care effects. In addition, although existing modification technologies can improve the performance of chitosan and glucan, in actual applications, how to effectively combine these two ingredients to achieve a synergistic effect is still a technical problem that needs to be solved. Therefore, systematic research on the synergistic effect of modified chitosan and modified glucan can effectively combine the advantages of modified chitosan and modified glucan, especially in terms of skin barrier repair, anti-inflammatory ability enhancement and anti-skin aging, so as to maximize the satisfaction of consumers' diverse skin care needs.
[0005] In summary, in order to solve the above problems, it is of great significance to prepare a skin care product based on chitosan and β-glucan modification. Summary of the invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a skin care product based on modified chitosan and glucan and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the problem raised in the prior art: how to modify chitosan and modified glucan to improve their synergistic effect and enhance the skin's repair ability, anti-inflammatory ability and anti-skin aging effect.

[0011] (2) adding L-arginine to 1.8-2 wt % morpholineethanesulfonic acid buffer and stirring evenly, adding N-hydroxysuccinimide and 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride in sequence, adjusting the pH to 6-6.5, and stirring for 2-3 h in an ice bath to obtain an activated arginine solution;
[0012] (3) Add the activated arginine solution prepared in step (2) dropwise into the chitosan solution prepared in step (1), stir evenly, stir at 20-25° C. for 12-16 h, transfer to a dialysis bag with a molecular weight cutoff of 4000-5000 D, dialyze with deionized water for 5-7 days, filter, and freeze-dry to obtain modified chitosan.
[0013] Preferably, the chitosan solution comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 0.8-1.2 parts of chitosan, 40-50 parts of 1-1.5wt% acetic acid solution; the activated arginine solution comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 2-2.2 parts of L-arginine, 30-40 parts of 1.8-2wt% morpholineethanesulfonic acid buffer, 1.3-1.4 parts of N-hydroxysuccinimide, and 3.4-3.5 parts of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride.
[0014] Preferably, the molecular weight of the chitosan is 100-200 kD.
[0015] Preferably, the preparation method of the modified β-glucan comprises the following steps: adding β-glucan to a 0.3-0.5wt% 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate aqueous solution and stirring evenly, stirring at 85-90°C for 3-4h, high-pressure microfluidization treatment, precipitation using anhydrous ethanol, re-dissolving with water, centrifugation, and freeze-drying the supernatant to obtain modified β-glucan.
[0016] More preferably, during the high-pressure microfluidization treatment, the pressure is 110-130 MPa and the time is 5-7 min.
[0017] More preferably, the modified β-glucan comprises the following raw materials in parts by mass: 0.8-1.2 parts of β-glucan, 90-100 parts of 0.3-0.5 wt% 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate aqueous solution.
[0018] More preferably, the molecular weight of the β-glucan is 200-400 kD.
[0019] More preferably, the preparation method of the skin care product comprises the following steps: adding the biological polysaccharide into deionized water, stirring evenly, and adding water to a total of 100 parts to obtain the skin care product.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0021] The present invention prepares and studies the synergistic effect of modified chitosan and modified β-glucan in enhancing the skin repair ability, anti-inflammatory ability and anti-skin aging effect: the skin care product significantly improves the skin repair ability, can effectively promote skin wound healing, repair skin damage, and maintain skin barrier and stability. At the same time, the combination of the two shows a significant synergistic effect in anti-inflammatory, can effectively inhibit the expression of pro-inflammatory factors, and significantly up-regulate the expression of anti-inflammatory factors, with potential anti-inflammatory, sedative and stabilizing effects. In addition, the present invention also shows a good synergistic anti-skin aging effect by inhibiting the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9.
[0022] The present invention uses L-arginine to modify the chitosan molecule, destroys the intramolecular hydrogen bond of the chitosan molecule, increases the solubility, enhances its dispersibility in the system, improves the film-forming effect, and thus enhances the skin care effect; and L-arginine can promote the generation of natural moisturizing factors, delay skin aging, and can synthesize NO through nitric oxide synthase, which can promote blood vessel synthesis and anti-inflammatory effect during wound healing; and the molecular weight of chitosan needs to be controlled at 100-200 kD. Too high molecular weight leads to high viscosity and difficult modification, while too low molecular weight has a general film-forming effect and poor skin care effect.
[0023] After dissolving β-glucan with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate aqueous solution, the modified β-glucan is obtained by high-pressure microfluidization treatment. 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate helps to break the hydrogen bond network of β-glucan, increasing the solubility of β-glucan in water. Through high-pressure microfluidization treatment, the hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces between glucan molecules are further broken, further enhancing its solubility and dispersibility, thus enhancing the skin care effect. However, when the pressure is too high, the structure of β-glucan is damaged and the skin care effect becomes poor. When the pressure is too low, the hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces between molecules are less damaged. According to experiments, the optimal treatment is at 110-130 MPa for 5-7 minutes.
[0024] In addition, through the limitation of the substances and modification methods in the above formula, the modified skin care products in this application have produced significant technical effects: First, through the cell scratch experiment, it is verified whether the combined use of modified chitosan and modified β-glucan can effectively promote skin wound healing. The results show that the combination of the two has a significant synergistic effect in promoting skin wound healing. Second, RT-qPCR and ELISA experiments are used to clarify the synergistic effect of modified chitosan and modified β-glucan in inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors and up-regulating the expression of anti-inflammatory factors. The results show that the combination of the two can significantly enhance the anti-inflammatory effect of skin cells. Third, by detecting the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by RT-qPCR, the results show that the combined use of modified chitosan and modified β-glucan can significantly inhibit the expression of these two matrix metalloproteinases at the transcriptional level, having potential anti-skin aging ability.

[0088] As can be seen from Table 1: In Comparative Example 3, chitosan was not modified, resulting in low water solubility, poor dispersibility, and reduced repair effect; in Comparative Example 4, chitosan with a molecular weight of 300 - 450 kD was selected, which had a high viscosity, was difficult to modify, had reduced dispersibility, and a reduced repair effect; in Comparative Example 5, β-glucan was not modified, resulting in low water solubility, poor dispersibility, and reduced repair effect; in Comparative Example 6, the pressure of high-pressure microfluidization treatment was increased to 180 MPa, and the structure of β-glucan was damaged, resulting in a decline in the repair effect.
[0089] In summary, by adding the prepared modified chitosan and modified β-glucan as biological polysaccharides to skin care products, the present invention has a good synergistic effect, with excellent skin repair ability, anti-inflammatory ability, and anti-skin aging effect.
