[0001] FIELD OF THEINVENTION The present invention relates to a vitamin composition, in particular, a vitamin composition for preventing Alzheimer's disease by promoting energy metabolism. The present invention relates to a composition comprising a vitamin B composition and a vitamin C composition for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The disclosed compositions are suitable for preventing, treating or delaying Alzheimer's disease, the compositions comprising: It can improve learning and memory abilities as well as cognitive impairment. [Background technology]
[0002] BACKGROUND OF THEINVENTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system that usually affects people over the age of 65. is characterized by progressive cognitive decline and behavioral disturbances; and It is the most common type of senile dementia. Currently, the etiology of Alzheimer's disease is not fully understood. It is not clear whether metabolic disorders are one of the reasons for Alzheimer's disease. Sugar is the body's It is the main source of metabolism, and abnormal glucose metabolism leads to a series of disorders of tissue function. Here, the brain tissue, which uses glucose as its main energy source, will have abnormal Glucose metabolism is significantly affected. Numerous studies have demonstrated that patients with AD have metabolic dysfunction. At the same time, a slowdown in brain metabolism is one of the earliest symptoms of AD, and This suggests that changes occurring earlier than functional impairment can be detected by neuropsychiatric testing. Imaging studies have demonstrated brain atrophy, metabolic disturbances, and other physiological abnormalities in patients with AD. Concomitant metabolic abnormalities were observed and demonstrated to worsen with progression of the disease. Potential mechanisms of glucose metabolism include direct hyperglycemia toxicity, hyperglycemia-induced brain damage, and Insufficient energy supply, insulin resistance, and abnormalities in insulin signal transduction in the It has also been found that this condition may be associated with abnormalities in the insulin-degrading enzyme gene. FDG-PET glucose metabolism imaging has shown that glucose metabolic rate is elevated in the frontal lobe several years before dementia. It was confirmed that a decrease in the cingulate cortex of the parietal and temporal lobes was observed. This suggests that impaired glucose metabolism in the brain is closely related to AD, and that the metabolic disorder It is believed to be one of the causes and development of AD, and therefore improves brain energy metabolism. These results suggest that it may be possible to prevent and reduce the onset of AD by
[0003] Glucose glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle are the major drivers of glucose production (ATP) in the body. These are the main metabolic pathways. The complete reactions of these two energy metabolic pathways are The activity of these metabolic enzymes requires the participation of coenzymes. Rhodamine dehydrogenase is a multienzyme complex in the mitochondrial matrix. This enzyme is a key player in catalyzing the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. The reaction processes catalyzed by PDH are glycolysis, tricarbamate, and glycerol. It is involved in the phosphate cycle and ATP formation. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate. The H removed during the catalytic reaction is converted to α-ketoglutaric acid. + is NAD + NADH It is the first step in the tricarboxylic acid cycle to produce CO2 and It is an irreversible reaction and is the rate-limiting step in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. α-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase present in the mitochondrial matrix (α-KGDH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is a constant It is important to maintain the redox state of the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. Activity changers are closely related to neurodegenerative diseases. Dextrose is the sixth enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and is involved in the electron transport chain. Succinate dehydrogenase, flavin adenine dinucleotide Cytochromes and 3Fe-S proteins play important roles in sugar metabolism and the oxidative respiratory chain. SDH is an important component of mitochondrial complex II, which plays a key role in the regulation of mitochondrial function. It is present in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion and is a marker for the inner mitochondrial membrane. Its activity is It indicates metabolic status and mitochondrial function. SDHA encodes a flavoprotein and It is a subunit of succinate dehydrogenase, a key enzyme involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. As a marker enzyme for mitochondrial function, succinate dehydrogenase is It is one of the enzymes, and its activity is an indicator for evaluating the operation state of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. ATP5B encodes a subunit of ATP synthase. It is involved in hydrogen ion transport in mitochondria. is a type of synthetic enzyme in mitochondria and plays a key role in energy metabolism in living organisms. It is a key enzyme.
[0004] Vitamins are a set of organic compounds essential in human metabolism and are primarily responsible for the normal functioning of the body. They are responsible for maintaining and regulating the metabolic processes required by living organisms. They are generally not produced by the organism itself. Vitamins also play a role in the production of energy. Although they cannot be used to make cells like sugars, proteins and fats, they are essential for the functioning of living organisms. Regulates metabolism and maintains physical health.
[0005] Many vitamins are known to be involved in metabolic processes and they It is an essential component of the body's biochemical reactions. Vitamin B promotes metabolism in the body and They are essential substances for converting sugars, fats, proteins, etc. into heat. Most of them are coenzymes. Once a vitamin B deficiency occurs in the body, If this occurs, cell function will immediately decline and metabolic disorders will occur. Some of the members of the thymus group are known for their positive effects on the nervous system and psychological state. It is even called the psychotropic vitamin because of its high content of vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7 and B12. Vitamin B members, including those involved in glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle during glucose metabolism, Once these vitamins are deficient, this metabolic pathway is inhibited, This causes a series of diseases associated with metabolic disorders. Research has shown that vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, It also indicates that B6, B7 and B12 are directly involved in energy metabolism processes. They are known to reduce the production of amyloid (Aβ), promote the metabolism of homocysteine (Hcy), and inhibit tumor growth. May also play a role in the pathogenesis of AD, such as by reducing tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) levels and supporting the synthesis of neurotransmitters. Therefore, these B vitamins are involved in the energy metabolism in the brain. By modulating the levels of This could be one of the potential treatment methods.
[0006] In addition to the B vitamins, supplementation with some fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamins D, E, and K may be beneficial. It can reduce the risk of atherosclerotic syndrome, lower fasting blood sugar levels, and improve insulin resistance. Clinical studies have shown that it induces insulin secretion and increases glucose metabolism in the brain. In addition, they reduce Aβ and TNF-α levels in the brains of animals with AD. and improved cognitive function in AD patients. It has been shown that it can simultaneously exert its effects on both glucose metabolism and neuronal function, and It also suggests that there may be some relationship between them. Taking these vitamins can regulate energy metabolism in the brains of AD patients and improve AD It is possible to improve the symptoms of. Trace elements are one of the essential components in the body. In addition, some trace elements have been reported to be involved in energy metabolism and the progression of AD. Clinical studies have shown that AD patients have significantly lower and more severe magnesium levels in the brain. Animal studies suggest that higher magnesium intake may reduce the risk of AD. showed that after 10 min of hypoxia in rats, ATP levels in the CA1 region were normalized. The ATP levels in brain slices treated with magnesium ions were only 16% of those in normal controls. The decrease in ATP levels in the CA1 region due to hypoxia was confirmed by Magnetoscopy. Therefore, the results suggest that the brain’s magnesium levels improved significantly. Regulation of calcium levels may prevent a depletion of the energy metabolite ATP in the brain, This improves neuronal function in the brain.
[0007] Through previous basic research, it has been demonstrated that vitamins are beneficial for maintaining health and preventing disease. In clinical applications, it has been gradually confirmed that Various vitamins are also used as dietary supplements to promote health and prevent disease. For neurological disorders, vitamins such as B1, B3, B6, B9, B12, C and E may be used. The authors report that the effects of high homocysteine on neurodevelopment and homocysteine metabolism (high homocysteine is one of the risk factors for AD) It can promote the synthesis of neurotransmitters, and can improve the neurological disorders caused by pernicious anemia. They can prevent damage and improve neurological disorders in order to maintain the health of nervous tissue. Of particular importance are the following clinical applications: It has a significant therapeutic effect on peripheral neuritis disease and reducing oxidative stress (a potential cause of AD) is doing.
[0008] From the perspective of energy metabolism, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B7, B6, B9, and B12 are It is involved in the biooxidation and physiological metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the body. In clinical applications, these vitamins promote metabolism and formation of energy. Min has been shown to treat the symptoms and causes of metabolic-related diseases, such as improving blood sugar regulation and promoting fat metabolism. With this in mind, vitamin drugs have a significantly higher clinical benefit. and for preventing and treating energy metabolism disorders, regulating the nervous system and delaying the onset of AD. It can be seen that the FDA is playing a significant role even in the development of new drugs. The combined results suggest that vitamin drugs may have potential value in energy metabolism and the treatment of AD. There is no doubt that vitamin A plays a role in the regulation of energy metabolism in the brain. Research into this has societal and clinical implications for preventing and reducing the incidence of AD.
[0009] Recently, a Phase 3 clinical study (NCT00235716) has shown that vitamin E has the potential to reduce cardiovascular disease by 2050-2060 after long-term supplementation (6-48 months). showed that it can effectively improve cognitive function in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Another Phase II clinical study (NCT01320527) also tested a multivitamin (containing B9, B12, E, and other nutrients) ) has also been shown to be beneficial for cognition and emotional regulation in MCI patients, which may explain the cognitive impairment. These results suggest that vitamin therapy may have a therapeutic effect on AD in the early stages of the disease. is.
[0010] In summary, basic and clinical research has demonstrated that: (1) B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, and B12) (2) fat-soluble vitamins (D, E, K) and (3) trace elements (magnesium, iodine, etc.) All of these drugs have effects that regulate metabolism and contribute to the protection of neuronal function, as well as early bilirubin. However, to date, In fact, no vitamin drugs are used clinically to treat AD.
[0011] Currently, drugs used to treat AD are primarily acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. These drugs alter the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain. These drugs slow the decline of cognitive function by slowing the progression of symptoms for 6-12 months. It was known that it could only delay the
[0012] The present invention provides a multivitamin drug that contains some or all of the above elements, and In this study, the authors improved AD by regulating and slowing down energy metabolism in the brain. The purpose of the present invention is to prevent and treat the diseases caused by the following causes: The present invention aims to improve neurological and cognitive functions by improving the energy metabolism in the brain, Its mechanism of action is different from that of conventional neurotransmitter improving drugs and has obvious advantages. Conventional drugs can only treat symptoms, not diseases. At the same time, the present invention The disclosed drug is relatively safe and it regulates energy metabolism in the brain. It has no obvious side effects on the body and can be considered a gentle treatment method. Therefore, the energy metabolism drug of the present invention provides an innovative drug for the treatment of AD, and can reduce the severity of AD. It may play an important role in treatment.
[0013] Alzheimer's disease is a global disease that poses an enormous economic burden to families and society in the 21st century. According to reports, in 2016, the number of Alzheimer's patients in the United States was The economic loss caused by AD is estimated at $236 billion. The drugs used in this study are mainly acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and NMDA receptor antagonists. These drugs affect cognitive function by altering the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain. Although these drugs inhibit the decline of the immune system, the deterioration of symptoms can only be delayed by 6-12 months. It was known that these drugs could not completely halt the progression of AD. This is the biggest problem in AD treatment. The energy metabolism drugs included in the present invention are It is a new AD treatment drug. In animal experiments, we have shown that the drug effectively improves the cognition level of animals. The effect of the drug is to improve the efficacy and its mechanism is completely different from the current drugs on the market. After the drug was approved, It is expected that this will cover a large number of AD patients and the market potential will be vast. can be. Summary of the Invention

[0044] 3.6 Behavioral testing Morris Water Maze The Morris water maze was used as a behavioral test to study spatial learning and memory. Rodents in the water environment had a strong escape motivation and attempted to escape from the water environment. The learning process to escape reflects the animal's learning ability. A safe place (platform) is spatially located in the water, and the swimmer is not intentionally allowed to swim toward the platform. This could reflect the animal's spatial association memory ability. The Morris water maze facility consists of an automatic image acquisition and software analysis system. It consists of a pool and a platform with adjustable height and movable position.
[0045] The water maze experiment had two parts.
[0046] 1) Acquisition phase The pool is divided into four quadrants, and the platform is 1 cm above the liquid level. The animals were placed in the water against the wall of the pool and in one quadrant. The position of the animal was randomly selected in different orientations at one of four starting positions. The time it takes to find and climb onto the platform (escape latency) was recorded to test the learning ability of the animals. If the animal does not find the platform after 60 seconds, it must be guided to the platform. The specimen was then placed on the platform for 2 seconds, after which it was removed, dried under far infrared light, and placed in a cool, dark place until the next experimental period. Each animal was then placed back in its cage. Each animal was then monitored 4 times daily for 5 days (or longer depending on the model's learning status). The models were trained in a short time and a mean latency of less than 20 seconds was considered successful.
[0047] 2) Exploration training After the acquisition phase, 1.5 hours and 1 day, exploration training was performed. Before the experiment, the platform was removed and the mouse was placed The rat was then placed in the water on the opposite side of the original quadrant and a 60-second recording session was started. Detection metrics were: 1) the time when the animal first crossed the platform; 2) the time when the animal entered the target quadrant (where the platform was originally located); The time spent in the target quadrant was included in the time spent in the target quadrant, and 3) how often the animal entered the target quadrant. It was.
[0048] 3.7 Assay of mitochondrial enzyme activity 1) Brain tissue sampling Brain tissue from AD rats deeply anesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate was rapidly extracted after decapitation. The cerebral cortex was placed in a clean, pre-chilled 2 mL centrifuge tube. The samples were then rapidly weighed and placed in liquid nitrogen for rapid freezing, after which they were uniformly collected and sorted. The cells were then placed in a freezer and stored at -80°C.
[0049] 2) Extraction of mitochondrial enzymes In the experiment, we used a Solarbio mitochondrial enzyme activity detection kit. The cortex was weighed, and 1 mL of Reagent 1 and 10 μL of Reagent 3 were added to the cortex. The pellet was crushed in an ice bath. The precipitate was removed by centrifugation at 4°C. The supernatant was The precipitate was transferred to a centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 4°C to remove the supernatant. Add 2 μL of reagent 3 and ultrasonically destroy the mixture, then use it in the enzyme activity detection assay. did.
[0050] 3.8 Detection of mRNA related to energy metabolism 1) Brain tissue sampling Brain tissue from AD rats deeply anesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate was rapidly extracted after decapitation. The cerebral cortex was placed in a clean, pre-chilled 2 mL centrifuge tube. The samples were then rapidly weighed and placed in liquid nitrogen for rapid freezing, after which they were uniformly collected and sorted. The cells were then placed in a freezer and stored at -80°C.
[0051] 2) mRNA Expression In the experiment, the TIANGEN total RNA extraction kit was used. Approximately 0.1 g of cerebral cortex was weighed and 1 m Lysate RZ of L was added to the cortex and the sample was then homogenized. After 5 min. Add 200 μL of chloroform to the precipitate, shake vigorously for 15 seconds, and then leave at room temperature for 3 minutes. The mixture was centrifuged at 37°C. The aqueous phase was transferred to a new tube, and 0.5 volumes of absolute alcohol were added to the tube. The mixture was transferred to a CR3 tube and centrifuged at 4°C to remove the liquid waste. Protein removal solution was added and the liquid waste was removed by centrifugation. The tubes were rinsed twice with 30-100 μl of RNase-free water and centrifuged to remove the liquid waste. After adding deionized distilled water, the mixture was stored at room temperature for 2 minutes and centrifuged at 4°C. was detected by real-time PCR after reverse transcription with a Toyobo RT-PCR kit.
[0052] 4 Results During the acquisition phase of the Morris water maze (D1-D5), we evaluated the ability of animals to find the hidden platform. The time it took to reach the platform was used as an index of spatial memory detection. The shorter the latency to reach the platform, the better the memory. As seen, the latency to the platform for each group of animals decreased significantly with increasing training time. It was suggested that learning and memory skills improve with repeated training. The learning and memory abilities of D5 model animals were significantly worse than those of normal controls. The learning and memory abilities of the model animals were improved by treatment with an energy metabolism drug (multivitamin BC). After the treatment, the memory and learning abilities of the animals with dementia were significantly improved. This shows that significant improvements have been made.
[0053] In exploration training, the animal was placed in the water from the opposite quadrant of the original platform. The time and distance spent in the target quadrant (the quadrant where the hidden platform was originally located) were recorded as The better the animal's memory ability, the more time it took to complete the target quadrant. The time to swim was longer and the swimming distance was longer. The results are shown in Figures 2 and 3. Quadrant-Quadrant 1 (the original hidden platform quadrant) time and distance swam were significantly higher than the other groups. The results also showed that their memory levels were the best. The time and swimming distance in the target quadrant of the BC group animals were higher than those of the model group. Furthermore, two months of vitamin BC treatment could effectively improve the memory performance of animals with dementia. He suggested that...
[0054] The results of the mitochondrial enzyme activity detection assay are shown in Figure 4. Multivitamin BC , a key enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle in the cerebral cortex (pyruvate dehydrogenase PDH, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and mitochondrial isocitrate dehydrogenase It significantly improved the activities of interleukin-3 (ICDHm), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). , thus improving mitochondrial metabolic activity.
[0055] As shown in Figure 5, the results of the energy metabolism-related mRNA assay showed that the cerebral The expression of SDHA and ATP5B genes in the cortex was lower than that in the normal group. Multivitamin BC and combination treatment increased the expression of SDHA and ATP5B, and Improved chondrial metabolism and improved cognitive function.
[0056] 5 Conclusion The learning and memory abilities of ICV-STZ model rats were significantly reduced in the Morris water maze test. The learning and memory abilities of rats were significantly improved after 2 months of multivitamin BC treatment. The activity of key enzymes involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle was enhanced, and the energy The expression levels of mRNA related to glucose metabolism were improved in the cerebral cortex. However, it has a certain therapeutic effect in treating cognitive impairment in AD and is a new drug for AD patients. This indicates that the Board is expected to provide
