Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to adhesive photoprotective compounds. The present invention also relates to compositions comprising such compounds, and more particularly to cosmetic or sunscreen compositions. The present invention also relates to the use of such compounds in cosmetic and therapeutic applications. The present invention also relates to the use of such compounds to reduce photodegradation and / or photoinstability of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. The present invention further relates to supports and materials comprising such compounds adhered to said supports. [Background technology]

[0002] Approximately 5% of the sun's electromagnetic energy is emitted in the form of UV light. This UV light can be divided into three groups: UV-A (400-315 nm), UV-B (315-280 nm), and UV-C (280-100 nm). UV light, more specifically UV-B light, can have harmful short-term or long-term effects on the body. Serious skin damage, such as accelerated skin aging or skin cancer, can occur from exposure to UV light. As a result, the development of new sunscreens that provide effective protection across the entire UV irradiation spectrum has become a matter of paramount importance and a major concern. Many sunscreens are available on the market today. Despite their apparent efficacy, the active ingredients in these sunscreens have been shown to penetrate epidermal cells through the skin and have been detected in urine or breast milk. Small, non-adhesive nanoparticles have been developed for sunscreen compositions and are currently available on the market. However, such materials have also been shown to be skin-penetrating. Bioadhesive particles are designed to adhere to the skin and encapsulate activators, so that neither the particles nor the activators penetrate the skin. However, such bioadhesive particles are prepared using complex and costly manufacturing methods. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

The entire UV / Vis absorbance spectrum from 220 to 1000 nm was measured at the center of each microplate well. In addition, specific UV absorbance at 300 nm was measured as a 10×10 matrix by matrix scanning across the entire well.

[0323] At 300 nm, compound #23 (OOM) showed bioadhesion to a thiolated polylysine matrix, while octocrylene did not. Furthermore, bioadhesion of OOM to a non-thiolated polylysine matrix was not observed. These results indicate bioadhesion of compound #23 (OOM).

[0324] UV protection performance UVB protection was evaluated ex vivo in pig skin by measuring autofluorescence quenching. OOM (compound #23) and OCR (octocrylene) were solubilized in dotisol (isosorbide dimethyl ether) at the same molar concentration, and then incubated at 6.25 cm³. 2 Skin squares were covered and incubated at 37°C for 4 hours, then washed with 10 mL of ethanol for 5 minutes with stirring, or left unwashed. Next, 7 mm diameter skin punches were cut out and placed in a black 96-well plate. UVB protection was measured after excitation at 300 nm and fluorescence emission read at 460 nm, respectively. The results are shown in Table 3 below.

[0325] [Table 3]

[0326] The results show that the UVB protection obtained in pig skin with compound #23 (OOM) is more than twice as high as the UVB protection provided by octocrylene (OCR).

[0327] After ethanol washing, the UVB protection of porcine skin obtained with the OOM solution was reduced to 30% compared to the initial protection before washing. The same protocol was applied to octocrylene, a non-bioadhesive control of OOM, and after the ethanol washing step, the UVB protection was equivalent to that of the unprotected control. Such results indicate that OOM is bioadhesive, while octocrylene is not.
