Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of medical devices, medical or cosmetic formulations, biopharmaceutical manufacturing, and pharmaceutical preparation manufacturing, specifically to a composition with anti-glycation, RAGE inhibition, and brightening effects, its preparation method, formulation products, and applications. Background Technology
[0002] AGEs refer to a series of highly reactive end products formed when sugar molecules covalently bind to macromolecules such as DNA, proteins, and lipids in a non-enzymatic reaction. AGEs can develop even under normal blood sugar conditions, but their formation is greatly accelerated under hyperglycemic conditions, oxidative stress, or prolonged ultraviolet radiation.
[0003] In the Maillard reaction, the electrophilic carbonyl group of a sugar molecule reacts with the free amino group of a protein, lipid, or nucleic acid to form a Schiff base. This unstable Schiff base contains a carbon-nitrogen double bond, with the nitrogen atom attached to an aryl or alkyl group. The Schiff base rapidly rearranges to form a more stable ketamine, known as the Amadori product. At this point, the Amadori product can: ① undergo the reverse reaction; ② undergo an irreversible reaction with lysine or arginine to produce stable AGEs in the form of protein cross-linking; ③ undergo further decomposition reactions, such as oxidation, dehydration, and polymerization, thereby producing many other types of AGEs. RAGE (Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products) is a multi-ligand member of the cell surface receptor immunoglobulin superfamily and one of the AGEs-binding proteins. Once involved, it can generate a strong pro-inflammatory response in many cell types. RAGE linkage not only induces the expression of inflammatory genes but also triggers a positive feedback loop: inflammatory stimulation activates NF-κB, inducing RAGE expression, which in turn continuously activates NF-κB, causing an inflammatory response and accelerating skin pigmentation. Lipofuscin, as a combination of intracellular denatured proteins and lipid peroxides, is deposited in cells due to skin glycation and aging, thus exacerbating pigmentation and leading to dull skin. To address this issue, we focus on four aspects: inhibiting the generation of AGEs at its source, blocking the AGEs-RAGE pathway, clearing AGEs accumulation, and reducing lipofuscin accumulation. These measures aim to reduce and delay skin glycation, thereby achieving antioxidant and brightening effects.
[0004] Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is a hydrogenated derivative of curcumin. By reducing the unsaturated double bonds in the curcumin molecule, it exhibits higher stability and bioactivity. It reduces the accumulation of AGEs (advanced aging processes); decreases collagen cross-linking; and prevents AGEs from binding to RAGE and inducing the NF-κB and VEGF pathways, thus achieving an anti-glycation effect. Simultaneously, it synergistically enhances the antioxidant capacity of Dalbergia odorifera bark extract, reducing lipofuscin through antioxidant action and resulting in a brightening effect.
[0005] Currently, the preparation and application of products containing tetrahydrocurcumin on the market face the following challenges:
[0006] 1) It has low water and fat solubility, making it difficult to disperse evenly in cosmetic or pharmaceutical bases.
[0007] 2) It is easily oxidized and discolored. When exposed to light or air, it is easily oxidized and precipitated, causing the formula to change color (such as yellowing) and lose its activity.
[0008] 3) It has poor stability under high temperature and light, and is prone to degradation under high temperature or light, especially under light conditions, which leads to a decrease in the content of tetrahydrocurcumin in the product and affects the efficacy of the product.
[0009] Therefore, there is still an urgent need for a tetrahydrocurcumin-containing composition and / or its preparation method for cosmetics that has good stability, antioxidant and brightening effects, and the ability to inhibit lipofuscin levels. Summary of the Invention
[0010] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.

[0016] Surfactant: 3~30 parts by weight (e.g., 3, 5, 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 15, 18, 19, 20, 25 or 30 parts by weight);
[0017] Polyols: 50-80 parts by weight (e.g., 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75 or 80 parts by weight);
[0018] Stabilizer: 0.01~0.5 parts by weight (e.g., 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 or 0.5 parts by weight);
[0019] Phospholipids: 0.5 to 1 part by weight (e.g., 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 or 1 part by weight);
[0020] Solvent: 5 to 45.6 parts by weight (e.g., 5, 5.5, 5.9, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 9.5, 9.57, 10, 15, 17, 17.5, 17.9, 18, 18.1, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 45.29, 45.6 parts by weight, or any value within the range of any two of these values);
[0021] in,
[0022] The polyols include 1,3-butanediol and 1,3-propanediol;
[0023] The stabilizer includes disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA-2Na);
[0024] The solvent includes water;
[0025] The content ratio of 1,3-butanediol to 1,3-propanediol is 1:1 to 5:1.
[0026] The preparation method includes the following steps:
[0027] (1) Take 25%~35% of the 1,3-butanediol formulation amount of 1,3-butanediol and mix it with surfactant, Dalbergia odorifera bark extract and tetrahydrocurcumin to obtain solution 1;
[0028] (2) Mix the remaining polyol with phospholipids and heat until completely dissolved to obtain solution 2;
[0029] (3) Mix solution 1 and solution 2 thoroughly to obtain solution 3;
[0030] (4) Mix the stabilizer and solvent evenly to obtain solution 4;
[0031] (5) Mix solution 4 with solution 3, stir, and then mix with the four o'clock extract to obtain the composition.
[0032] In some embodiments, the amount of 1,3-butanediol added in step (1) is 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, or 35% of the 1,3-butanediol formulation. In some embodiments, the amount of 1,3-butanediol added in step (1) is 28% to 32% of the 1,3-butanediol formulation.
[0033] Pterocarpus marsupium bark extract is a natural active ingredient extracted from the bark of the Pterocarpus marsupium tree. Its core active ingredient is pterostilbene, which belongs to the polyhydroxystilbene class of compounds. Pterostilbene is a methylated derivative of resveratrol and is known as "second-generation resveratrol" due to its higher bioavailability and stability. This component is widely found in plants such as sandalwood and blueberries, but is particularly abundant in Pterocarpus marsupium. This active ingredient can effectively protect the integrity of protein structure and inhibit non-enzymatic glycation by occupying the glycosylation sites of proteins and competitively binding to proteins through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. Furthermore, it reduces glycosylation reactions by inhibiting the activity of AR and RAGE, and its antioxidant activity can neutralize free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress caused by AGEs. In some embodiments, the mixing and dissolving temperature in step (1) is 45°C to 65°C. In some embodiments, the mixing and dissolving temperature in step (1) is 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, 60°C, 65°C, or any value within the range of any two of these values.
