Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the psilocybin technology, which at the time of this disclosure relates primarily to mycology, mushroom cultivation, wild mushroom preparations, and (in a few cases) the isolated compound psilocybin. [Background technology]
[0002] Many people around the world suffer from psychological or mood disorders, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Many of these conditions are thought to involve the human serotonin system, including interactions between (A) the neurotransmitter serotonin (often abbreviated as 5-HT) and (B) several different subtypes of serotonin neurotransmitter receptors found in the human body.
[0003] A variety of compositions are known that modulate the activity on serotonin receptors. Several drugs (antidepressants, serotonin reuptake inhibitors, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, etc.) are available. In 2014, Better Communication Company predicted that the global market for drugs to treat psychiatric disorders would reach approximately $77.1 billion by 2018, with a five-year compound annual growth rate of 2.3% from 2013 to 2018. Almost all of these drugs target neurotransmitters (e.g., serotonin receptors, adrenergic receptors, dopamine receptors, etc.) and the targeting modes are varied. All of the top 10 drugs for treating mood disorders (e.g., depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and / or anxiety disorders) target the serotonin pathway.
[0004] However, despite the undoubted popularity and commercial success of these drugs, users of these drugs are dissatisfied with their long onset of action, their severe side effects, and their inadequate efficacy.In many cases, these drugs are harmful to the user.For example, many people who take prescription drugs that target serotonin report experiencing suicidal thoughts, sexual dysfunction, fatigue, elevated blood pressure, blurred vision, abnormal heart rate, nausea, and weight gain.
[0005] Millions of people in the United States recreationally consume so-called "magic mushrooms." Psilocybin (also known as 4-phosphoryloxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, or dihydrogen phosphate [3-(2-trimethylaminoethyl)-1H-indol-4-yl]) is believed to be the most abundant psychoactive compound in "magic mushrooms." Psilocin (4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is believed to be the second most abundant compound. Many in the scientific community believe that psilocin is the only active ingredient in "magic mushrooms," arguing that psilocybin merely acts as a prodrug and has no activity in itself. No conclusive studies have been conducted to support or undermine this theory.
[0006] When properly formulated and administered, psilocin and psilocybin produce rapid and long-lasting changes in human mood, and these effects can be achieved with minimal side effects, low addiction potential, low abuse potential, and low toxicity risks.
[0007] At present, the field of psilocybin technology is in a stagnant state. Although there are a few studies utilizing purified psilocybin as the sole active pharmaceutical ingredient, there is virtually no research on formulating psilocybin into a drug product for treating psychiatric disorders. Apart from the few studies on purified psilocybin, there is no attempt to adjust the properties of psilocybin using formulation materials or other ingredients. There is no attempt to formulate combinations of psilocybin with derivatives or other active molecules in specific combinations or doses. There is no attempt to formulate psilocybin into a composition that can modify the activity on one or more neurotransmitter receptors.
[0008] The psilocybin technology field has focused on the cultivation and consumption of mushrooms. Unfortunately, the collection and consumption of mushrooms can be dangerous because it is difficult to distinguish the desired mushroom species from similar-looking species. For example, the genus Paramecium is easily confused with its toxic look-alikes. Misidentification of Paramecium causes severe illness and death every year.
[0009] Even when "magic mushrooms" are properly identified, they vary widely in their concentrations of psilocybin, psilocin, and other (often overlooked) active ingredients. Thus, using mushrooms to administer a specific compound or a specific dose is not possible due to the variability in the chemical composition of the mushrooms.
[0010] Furthermore, even when "magic mushrooms" are properly identified, they are prone to contamination, which can result in problems such as unwanted side effects like "wood lover paralysis."
[0011] Little research has been done on psilocybin pharmacology, as there is a general understanding in the art not to explore psilocybin formulations. Instead, the art is almost exclusively focused on "magic mushrooms." The highest U.S. authorities on the subject continue to maintain that psilocybin has "no beneficial purpose" and continues to hold the view that it has "high potential for abuse."
[0012] Until recently, little research has been done on developing treatments involving psilocybin. Recent attempts have shown that taking pure, isolated psilocybin is a promising treatment for several psychological conditions, including post-traumatic stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and compulsive behavior. The November 6, 2017 Newsweek magazine described the state of the art as follows: "In the 1960s, magic mushrooms ("active psilocybin") were used as an experimental medical treatment, and some researchers are once again looking at magic mushrooms for therapeutic use. For example, a pilot study in 2011 showed the mushrooms had promising effects on cancer patients with anxiety. In 2016, a study validated their use in treating depression."
[0013] The field of psilocybin research is relatively small, and virtually no research has been conducted on formulating psilocybin or testing the pharmacology of psilocybin, its derivatives, and new formulations containing it. If properly studied, formulated, and administered, psilocybin and its derivatives are expected to offer significant benefits in the treatment of mood and neurological disorders, such as depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and / or anxiety disorders.
[0014] New compositions and methods are needed that include one or more of dihydrogen phosphate [3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-1H-indol-4-yl], 4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, dihydrogen phosphate [3-(2-trimethylaminoethyl)-1H-indol-4-yl], 4-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethyltryptamine, dihydrogen phosphate [3-(2-methylaminoethyl)-1H-indol-4-yl], 4-hydroxy-N-methyltryptamine, dihydrogen phosphate [3-(aminoethyl)-1H-indol-4-yl], and / or 4-hydroxytryptamine in precise dosage formulations.
[0015] There is also a need for combination formulations of these agents with other molecules that affect neurotransmitter activity.
[0016] There is a need for better methods and compositions for targeting and / or modulating the activity of one or more neurotransmitter receptors.Recently, "magic mushrooms" and certain molecules contained therein have been shown to have promising applications in this field.However, before such molecules can become effective treatments, they need to be properly studied and properly formulated into compositions that provide consistent and specific actions (e.g., specific activity on neurotransmitter receptors).
[0017] Thus, there exists an unmet need in the art for formulated psilocybin compositions that can be met by isolating and identifying molecules in magic mushrooms and studying their activity using cellular pharmacology. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0042] In one example, the composition weighs 100g and contains 0.5g of a first purified psilocybin derivative, 8g of a first purified cannabinoid, and 2.5g of a first purified terpene, the mass percentages of the first purified psilocybin derivative, the first purified cannabinoid, and the first purified terpene being 0.5%, 8%, and 2.5%, respectively.
[0043] In one example, every 25 g of the composition contains 2 g of psilocybin derivative. The amount of psilocybin derivative in the composition is determined by the following formula: Psilocybin derivative 2.0g ÷ composition 25.0g x 100% = 8.0%
[0044] In the context of this disclosure, the term "purified" means separated from other materials, such as plant or fungal materials (e.g., proteins, chitin, cellulose, or water).

[0047] In one embodiment, the term "purified" refers to a compound or composition that has been distilled.
[0048] In one embodiment, the term "purified" refers to a compound or composition that has been sublimated.
[0049] In one embodiment, the term "purified" refers to a compound or composition that has been subjected to two or more steps selected from crystallization, chromatography, distillation, or sublimation.

[0055] Furthermore, the compounds disclosed herein are often found in so-called "conjugated" or "derivatized" forms during chemical analysis.In one example, psilocybin derivatives are in the form of glucuronide derivatives in human serum assays.When enzymatically hydrolyzed, glucuronide derivatives are converted to non-glucuronide forms.It may be useful to hydrolyze glucuronide derivatives before extraction.
[0056] For example, the concentration of psirosin can be estimated by GC / MS by using beta-glucuronidase to liberate psirosin from its urinary conjugates (also known as glucuronide derivative forms) and then using MSTFA (N-methyl-N-trimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide) to derivatize psirosin to its trimethylsilyl derivative.
[0057] GC / MS can be used to identify and quantify psilocin in biological specimens.
[0058] Psilocin and psilocybin can also be identified by using liquid chromatography with or without tandem mass spectrometry (LC / MS / MS). When using LC / MS, derivatization methods prior to analysis are often unnecessary. A useful example can also be obtained by combining liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry to analyze psilocin and psilocybin in psychoactive mushrooms. All data indicate that the presence and amount of psychoactive compounds in samples of natural origin appears to be highly variable.
