Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cosmetic technology, specifically to a method for preparing and applying a supramolecular solvent containing puerarin. Background Technology

[0002] Puerarin is an isoflavone compound extracted from kudzu root, possessing significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and sebum metabolism-regulating activities. Puerarin reduces the inflammatory response caused by Propionibacterium acnes by inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors. Simultaneously, its antioxidant effect reduces follicular blockage caused by sebum oxidation, thereby preventing acne formation. Furthermore, puerarin indirectly controls sebum production by regulating pathways such as PPARγ to inhibit excessive sebum secretion. However, traditional puerarin formulations have poor water and lipid solubility, resulting in insufficient bioavailability.

[0003] Acne vulgaris, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, involves multiple interacting factors in its pathogenesis, including abnormal keratinization of the pilosebaceous duct, excessive proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes, hypersecretion of sebum, and dysregulation of the inflammatory response. Therefore, it has long troubled many people. According to a World Health Organization survey, more than 1 billion people worldwide suffer from acne, with a prevalence rate as high as 85% among adolescents. While current treatments can alleviate acne, they still face challenges such as drug resistance and high skin irritation.

[0004] For the treatment of acne, acids remain a commonly used and effective treatment method in both clinical practice and cosmetic science. Mandelic acid and salicylic acid, as classic hydroxy acids, have long been widely used in skin care due to their unique lipid solubility and keratin-regulating properties, especially in oil control and acne treatment. However, the application of traditional hydroxy acids in skin care has significant limitations, such as the poor solubility and high irritation of salicylic acid, and the difficulty in transdermal absorption of mandelic acid. Therefore, how to simultaneously address the limitations of hydroxy acid solubility remains a hot topic in the field of skin care.

[0005] For example, Chinese patent CN112375075A discloses a method for extracting puerarin using a natural eutectic solvent. The method involves adding kudzu root powder to an aqueous solution of a natural eutectic solvent, ultrasonically extracting at 20-75℃ and 200W for 15-75 minutes, centrifuging, and collecting the supernatant to obtain a kudzu root extract containing puerarin. The natural eutectic solvent in the aqueous solution is a mixture of a hydrogen bond donor and a hydrogen bond acceptor and / or deionized water. This invention provides a highly efficient and environmentally friendly method for extracting puerarin using a natural eutectic solvent, achieving an extraction rate 79.2% higher than that of water extracts. This method features short extraction time, low energy consumption, and is environmentally friendly. This invention, by introducing a natural eutectic solvent for puerarin extraction, provides a new research and development approach for the extraction of active ingredients from traditional Chinese medicine.

[0006] For example, Chinese patent CN117682949A discloses a deep eutectic solvent for salicylic acid, its preparation method, and its application. This deep eutectic solvent for salicylic acid is formed by the combination of salicylic acid, L-carnitine, and optional polyols under intermolecular forces. This alters the molecular polarity of the deep eutectic solvent for salicylic acid, enhances the hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces with water, increases the water solubility of salicylic acid, and improves the transdermal permeability of L-carnitine and salicylic acid. Skin care products and toiletries made from this solvent require minimal additives, have a pleasant feel, and are gentle and non-irritating. The preparation method provided by this invention integrates multiple deep eutectic solvent preparation methods, with mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, and suitability for industrial production. Furthermore, the reaction is thorough, simultaneously improving the availability of multiple substances.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to study a method that can improve the problems of poor solubility, easy precipitation, and difficulty in transdermal absorption of puerarin, while being safe and non-irritating. Summary of the Invention

In terms of preparation, this invention is simple to prepare and can be mass-produced, laying the foundation for the application of aqueous puerarin in pharmaceuticals and skin care.

[0091] The effect of supramolecular solvents containing puerarin on the cytotoxicity of HaCaT and RAW 264.7 cells was determined by MTT assay: HaCaT or RAW 264.7 cells were used at a cell density of 8000 cells / cm³. 2 Cells were seeded into 96-well plates. Different concentrations of the supramolecular solvent containing puerarin prepared in Example 1 and physical mixtures of puerarin-salicylic acid-carnitine-glycerol-water were co-cultured with HaCaT cells or RAW 264.7 cells for 48 h. MTT reagent was added, and the cells were incubated for 4 h. DMSO was then added, and the absorbance of each group of cells was measured at 490 nm to calculate the cell viability (%). Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the results indicated that the cell viability was no less than 85%, demonstrating that the supramolecular solvent containing puerarin had no cytotoxicity to HaCaT cells and RAW 264.7 cells, and that the cell safety was good.

PBS was added to the receiving cell, and after equilibration for 30 minutes, air bubbles were removed by tapping with a rubber bulb. The water bath temperature was set to 32±1℃. 1g of the supramolecular solvent containing puerarin prepared in Example 1 was accurately weighed. The receiving cell was stirred at 600 rpm, and samples were collected at 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, and 24h. The samples were centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 10 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. After filtering through a 0.22μm filter membrane, liquid chromatography was performed, and the cumulative permeate was calculated. Figure 5 As shown. The diffusion cell has an opening diameter of 20 mm, and the effective diffusion surface area is approximately 3.14 cm. 2 .

[0097] The formula for calculating cumulative transmittance is as follows:

[0098]

[0099] Among them, Q n The cumulative permeation is V, where V is the total volume of the receiving liquid, and C is the total volume of the receiving liquid. n C represents the drug concentration in the receiving solution during the nth sampling. i V represents the mass concentration of the drug in the receiving solution during the i-th sampling. i Where A is the sampling volume and A is the effective diffusion area.

Different concentrations of supramolecular solvent containing puerarin prepared in Example 1 were added to the sample group, and incubation was carried out for 24 h. The contents of IL-1α, TNF-α, and IL-8 in the collected cell supernatant were detected, and the inhibition rate of inflammatory factors in each group relative to the LPS-induced stimulation group was calculated. The results are as follows: Figure 6 , 7 As shown in Figures 8 and 9. The results show that, within a safe concentration range, supramolecular solvents containing puerarin have a significant inhibitory effect on cellular inflammatory factors.
