Abstract
Description
TOPICAL COMPOSITION COMPRISING AN EXTRACT OF OPHIOPOGON FOR USE IN THE TREATMENT OF THE EYELIDS OR EYE CONTOUR Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ophthalmology.
[0002] It relates more particularly to a topical composition which can be used as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent for the eyelids and / or the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with an atopic tendency, in particular the treatment of acute blepharitis or chronic blepharitis. Prior art
[0003] The upper and lower eyelids, as well as the eye contour, have specific histological, biological, and functional characteristics that make them extremely fragile and more sensitive than any other area of the face. For example, with more than 10,000 blinks per day, the eyelids are extremely stressed. In addition, the eyelids, like the eye contour, are areas of the face with few sebaceous glands; they have a thin, weakly protective hydrolipidic film, resulting in a reduced barrier function.
[0004] It is estimated that one-third of the adult population has more vulnerable skin that reacts more strongly to its environment. This is the phenomenon of sensitive skin, which is defined as cutaneous hyperreactivity involving non-immunological mechanisms or a lowering of the skin's tolerance threshold to stimuli that are usually well tolerated. Skin sensitivity is not the same on all areas of the body. For example, symptoms may appear only on the face. The manifestations of this sensitivity are feelings of discomfort, tightness, feelings of heating, and tingling. Sensitive skin is often dry skin, which amplifies its sensitivity. As the skin's hydrolipidic film ( / .e., the skin's protective barrier) is defective, the skin is more vulnerable and reacts more strongly to its environment.
[0005] Blepharitis is one of the cutaneous manifestations of sensitive skin, particularly atopic-prone skin, which is an attack chronic inflammatory skin disease with various origins. This skin sensitivity is also responsible for atopic dermatitis (or dermatitis), contact dermatitis, contact eczema, psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.
[0006] Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids. There are many causes. They can be due to a dysfunction of the Meibomian glands, the oxidation of meibum lipids, oxidative stress in keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts, or even changes in the protective microbial biofilm. The causes can also be of environmental origin, particularly the sensitivity of the eyelids to natural light, blue light, as well as pollution. They can be acute and chronic.
[0007] - Acute blepharitis corresponds to sudden inflammatory flare-ups, appearing within 24 to 48 hours after a triggering event: infection, airborne allergens, pollution, untimely direct or indirect contact with cosmetic products (eye makeup or nail polish for example).
[0008] Blepharitis becomes chronic when the patient has to deal with acute recurrences. The challenge is then to space out recurrences as much as possible and to reduce the sensations of discomfort and inflammation between attacks.
[0009] Chronic blepharitis can also be the consequence of specific medical eye treatment, in particular treatment for glaucoma, or treatment for retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration or diabetic macular edema.
[0010] As mentioned previously, blepharitis generates different phenomena such as inflammation, but also pruritus, secondary dryness, eyelid superinfection or even bacterial proliferation.
[0011] Inflammation can manifest itself in various ways, such as a thickened eyelid margin, redness, a burning sensation, a feeling of heavy and swollen eyelids, and evening itching.
[0012] Secondary dryness can cause discomfort, peeling of the eyelids and also the appearance of crusts in the eyelashes.
[0013] We also observe a frequent chronicity of blepharitis, thus opening the way to two types of treatment: curative treatments aimed at stopping the signs of acute blepharitis and treatments acting on the chronicity of blepharitis, with the aim of spacing out recurrences.
[0014] The treatment of blepharitis is based on dermocorticoids, which have the disadvantage of causing addiction.
[0015] The objective is therefore to offer effective eyelid (lower and upper) and / or eye contour care that is capable of: - calm feelings of discomfort and inflammation, reduce itching, - restore the anti-evaporative functions of the mebomian secretions, - effectively and lastingly soothe the eyelids and the eye contour, - lastingly moisturize the eyelids and the eye contour, - heal weakened eyelids and the eye contour, - restore the barrier function of the skin of the eye and the eye contour, - rebalance the microbiota by strengthening the natural defenses of the skin of the eye and the eye contour and by limiting bacterial proliferation, - limit the use of dermocorticoids.
[0016] WO 2017 / 091916 describes a topical composition for the skin comprising a glycerol production promoter obtained from Staphylococcus epidermidis or keratinocytes. Trehalose, hyaluronic acid, and ADResyl (extract from the roots of Ophiopogon japonicus) are all described as optional additives to the composition, each in a list comprising numerous compounds.
[0017] CN 107693443 describes a lyophilized powder intended to be mixed with a solvent at the time of application to activate ocular energy. The powder contains numerous constituents, including trehalose, hyaluronic acid, and ADResyl. The mixture is intended to be used in combination with yoga practice to reduce the effect of under-eye bags, wrinkles, etc.
[0018] To the Applicant's knowledge, no treatment fulfilling all of the aforementioned objectives for the treatment of the eyelids and the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with atopic tendency, in In particular, the treatment of acute and chronic blepharitis has not been developed to date. Statement of the invention
[0019] One of the aims of the invention is therefore to propose a composition for use as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent, or in the soothing and / or moisturizing treatment of the eyelids and / or the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with an atopic tendency, in particular blepharitis, which makes it possible to stop the effects of this skin sensitivity, and in particular acute blepharitis, and which is capable of spacing out acute recurrences, characterizing chronic blepharitis.
[0020] In other words, the aim of the invention is to develop a composition for the eyelids and / or the eye contour capable of leading to a reduction, or even elimination, of sensations linked to sensitive skin syndrome, i.e. itching, tingling, discomfort, tingling, irritation, scratching, sensations of heat, or even burning. In addition, the reduction in itching and scratching will limit, or even eliminate, the appearance of lesions and / or the spread of pathogens and therefore contamination of the skin.
[0021] Another aim of the invention is to provide a composition for use as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent, or in the soothing and / or moisturizing treatment of the eyelids and / or the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with atopic tendency, in particular blepharitis, which, where appropriate, complements corticosteroid treatment, so as to limit the doses of standard active ingredients used in these pathologies.
[0022] The Applicant has demonstrated that the combination of a mixture of hyaluronic acid, trehalose and an extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots was effective for use as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent, or in the soothing and / or moisturizing treatment of the eyelids and / or the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with atopic tendency, in particular acute blepharitis, and that the addition to this mixture of bakuchiol, an extract of the ferment of the microorganism Exiguobacterium sp and a vitamin E derivative made it possible to act on its chronicity.
[0023] The Applicant has demonstrated that the combination of a mixture of hyaluronic acid, trehalose and an extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots was effective as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent for the eyelids and / or the eye contour of a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with atopic tendencies, in particular acute blepharitis, and that the addition to this mixture of bakuchiol, an extract of the ferment of the microorganism Exiguobacterium sp and a vitamin E derivative made it possible to act on its chronicity.
[0024] More specifically, the Applicant demonstrated that, taken separately, a mixture of hyaluronic acid and trehalose on the one hand and an extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots on the other hand had an anti-inflammatory effect on the eyelids and / or the eye contour and that, in addition and above all, the combination of these 3 elements had a superior effect on inflammation, justifying the existence of an unexpected synergy between the different elements.
[0025] In other words and according to a first characteristic, the invention relates to a topical composition comprising, as active ingredient, a mixture of hyaluronic acid, trehalose and an extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots, for its use as a soothing and / or moisturizing agent for the eyelids and / or the eye contour in a subject with sensitive skin, in particular skin with atopic tendency, in particular blepharitis.
[0026] The Applicant noted that this combination provided an immediate effect on hydration, relieving and soothing feelings of discomfort, itching, irritation, and restoring the balance of the skin flora.
[0027] For the purposes of the invention, a soothing agent ensures a reduction, or even elimination, of skin discomfort by reducing, or even eliminating, irritation, tingling, or even itching.
[0028] For the purposes of the invention, a moisturizing agent has the effect of increasing the water content of the skin via several mechanisms such as the repair and / or lasting strengthening of the skin barrier or the supply and / or retention of water.
[0029] The effect is also long-lasting due to the restoration of the skin barrier, the reduction of eyelid edema associated with inflammation, the strengthening of natural defenses and the reestablishment of microbiotic homeostasis.
[0030] According to a first characteristic, the hyaluronic acid has an average molecular weight of between 100 kDa and 600 KDa, advantageously between 300 kDa and 450 KDa, preferably 300 kDa.
[0031] The selection of this specific molecular weight range allows for a hyaluronic acid that penetrates into the deep layers of the eyelid, thus hydrating all layers of the epidermis and also participating in the synthesis of natural hyaluronic acid by stimulating its production. This results in a stimulation of the antibacterial activity of the skin due to the release by the skin of [3 defensins 2.
[0032] In practice, hyaluronic acid represents between 0.01% and 1%, advantageously between 0.02% and 0.3% by weight of the composition.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, and in particular when the composition is used with a curative aim, the hyaluronic acid represents between 0.1% and 0.2%, preferably 0.15% by weight of the composition.
[0034] Trehalose appears to contribute to the overall effect of the composition through its bioprotective properties, thus preserving the cells of the epidermis. In practice, trehalose represents between 1% and 5%, preferably 3% by weight of the composition.
[0035] According to an essential characteristic, the composition includes an extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots.
[0036] The Applicant found that particularly advantageous results were obtained in the treatment of blepharitis, in combination with the other active ingredients, when the extract represented between 0.2% and 1% by weight of the composition.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment, and in particular when the composition is used with a curative aim, the extract of Ophiopogon japonicus roots advantageously represents between 0.4% and 0.5% by weight of the composition, advantageously 0.45%.
[0038] According to another feature, when the composition is used to limit the chronicity of blepharitis, it further comprises bakuchiol, a ferment extract of the microorganism Exiguobacterium sp. and a water-soluble derivative of vitamin E.
[0039] The basic composition thus completed helps restore the skin's barrier function and therefore ensures long-term treatment of chronic blepharitis. It also helps reduce itching and irritation and protects the eyelids from external aggressions. It also reduces the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
[0040] Under these conditions, it contains between 0.04% and 0.06%, advantageously 0.05% by weight of hyaluronic acid and between 0.5% and 0.7%, advantageously 0.6% by weight of Ophiopogon japonicus root extract.
[0041] Bakuchiol is extracted from babchi seeds and has retinol-like functions. It regulates cell differentiation and stimulates collagen synthesis. It also acts as an antioxidant, maintains lipid homeostasis, and inhibits opportunistic bacterial proliferation.
[0042] In practice, bakuchiol represents between 0.5% and 1%, preferably 0.75% by weight of the composition.
[0043] According to the invention, the composition contains a ferment extract of the microorganism Exiguobacterium sp., advantageously the raw material corresponding to the INCI: glycerin (and) water (and) hydrolyzed pea protein and glucose and sodium chloride and sodium succinate.
[0044] This raw material is known in particular for protecting against light-related aggressions, aging (anti-blue shield) and hyperpigmentation (anti-dark circle effect). Here again, the Applicant had the idea of applying these properties to the specific case of the eyelid, by combining this product with the other aforementioned ingredients with which synergy has been demonstrated.
[0045] In practice, the ferment extract of the microorganism Exiguobacterium sp. represents between 0.5% and 5%, preferably from 1.5% to 3% by weight of the composition.
[0046] For the treatment of recurrence, the composition also contains a water-soluble vitamin E derivative representing between 0.1% and 1%, preferably 0.5% by weight of the composition.
[0047] The vitamin E derivative is known for its effect on protection against UVA / UVB irradiation, its protective effect against oxidative inflammation induced by UV and pollution, its effect on increasing ceramic synthesis and finally its anti-dark circle effect.
[0048] The composition of the invention can be used where appropriate in combination with dermocorticoids, either simultaneously or successively with them.
[0049] In an advantageous embodiment, the composition of the invention is used in addition to treatment with dermocorticoids, after stopping them, in particular for the treatment of acute blepharitis.
[0050] In another embodiment, the composition of the invention is used alternately with treatment with dermocorticoids, for example application in the evening of one and application in the morning of the other, in particular for the treatment of acute blepharitis.
[0051] In another embodiment, the composition of the invention is used alternately with treatment with dermocorticoids, for example application of one in the evening and application of the other in the morning, then use alone after stopping the dermocorticoids, in particular for the treatment of acute blepharitis.
[0052] In another embodiment, the composition of the invention is used for the treatment of chronic blepharitis generated in the context of the treatment of an ocular disease, such as for example glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, in the absence or in addition to dermocorticoids. Brief description of the drawings
[0053] Other advantages and characteristics of the invention will emerge more clearly from the following description, given by way of non-limiting example, of the composition according to the invention, from the appended drawings in which:
[0054] [Fig. 1] is a curve representing the evolution of the percentage of HBD2 ([3 defensin 2) as a function of time after the application of different compositions on the eyelids following an induction of inflammation by injection of LPS (lipopolysaccharide).
[0055] [Fig. 2] is a curve representing the evolution of the daily self-assessment of itching, during the 28 days of application of the composition of the invention, by means of a score for itching ranging from 0 (no itching) to 10 (severe itching). Detailed description of the invention
[0056] Study of the anti-inflammatory effect of the composition of the invention on the eyelid in the case of curative treatment (acute blepharitis) by dosage of HBD2.
[0057] The list of ingredients used in the tested compositions is shown in Table 1.
[0058] [Table 1]: C059] From these ingredients, three solutions were made: Solution 1: Primalhyal-Trehalose: mixture of 0.15% Primalhyal 300 and 3% Trehalose 100. Solution 2: ADResyl: solution containing 0.45% ADResyl Solution 3 (composition of the invention): solution 1 + solution 2. The solutions were made in distilled water.
[0060] The anti-inflammatory effect of the different solutions is observed by the ex vivo cutaneous microdialysis technique on fresh eyelids. The principle of this technique is to insert into the dermis, a sterile microprobe equipped at its end with a semi-permeable membrane continuously perfused by a sterile physiological liquid. This membrane allows, by concentration gradient, to analyze the dermal interstitial fluid, whether for endogenous compounds or for exogenous compounds.
[0061] Three eyelids are collected and placed in an antibiotic bath in the form of a 10% Penicillin-Streptomycin and 10% Amphotericin B solution for 15 minutes. The samples are then dried using absorbent paper. A microdialysis probe is inserted into the dermis of each eyelid using a probe guide. The eyelids are placed in survival medium on a heating plate. An hour is allowed to stabilize the eyelids following insertion of the probe. A physiological solution (Ringer) is then infused at 3 pL / min. The microdialysates are collected for 1 hour to obtain a basal value (T0) of HBD-2. Induction of inflammation is achieved by back-injection of 0.8 mg / ml of LPS intradermally (12.5 μl on each side of the probe) and the compositions are applied to the surface of the eyelids.Samples are taken every hour for 6 hours. The microdialysates are stored at -20°C until HBD2 is measured using an ELISA kit.
[0062] The HBD-2 in the samples binds specifically to the antibodies coated at the bottom of the wells. The development is carried out using a streptavidin-HRP solution and chromogen solutions that will cause a blue color development. The intensity of the color is directly proportional to the amount of HBD-2 in the wells.
[0063] 50 μl of standard (from 0 to 500 pg / ml of HBD-2) and 50 μl of microdialysate are placed in the wells of a 96-well plate with 100 μl of HRP-streptavidin. The plate is incubated for 1 h at 37°C. After a series of washes, two different chromogen solutions are added to the wells and the plate is incubated for 15 min at 37°C. The color reaction is stopped by the addition of 50 μl of H2SO4. The plate is immediately read at 450 nm (Thermo Multiskan FC). The fluorescence intensity is proportional to the amount of HBD-2 present in the samples and standards. The calibration range allows the determination of HBD-2 concentrations in the samples. The results are expressed as a percentage of HBD-2 relative to T6 (6 h).
[0064] The results are shown in Figure 1.
[0065] Solution 3 corresponding to the composition of the invention has an effective anti-inflammatory effect for the curative treatment of acute blepharitis induced in the present model, by injection of LPS. Indeed, when a comparison is made with solution 1 (Primalhyal + Trehalose) and solution 2 (ADResyl alone), solution 3 very significantly reduces inflammation compared to solutions 1 and 2.
