Recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition, its preparation method and application
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411794366.0, filed on December 9, 2024, entitled "Recombinant Collagen Ionic Liquid Composition and its Preparation Method and Application", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the fields of cosmetics, medical devices, pharmaceuticals and medical device technologies, and in particular to a recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0003] Hair loss is the phenomenon of hair falling out of the scalp. Physiological hair loss is normal hair loss caused by the body's metabolism; pathological hair loss refers to abnormal or excessive hair loss caused by various factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, medical conditions, and nutritional deficiencies, leading to thinning hair or even baldness. Hair loss not only affects personal self-image but can also have a profound impact on psychological and social aspects. Drug treatment is a common method for improving and treating hair loss due to its convenience, ease of use, and sustained effects. Among them, minoxidil and finasteride have been proven to be effective in improving hair loss, but they have problems such as long treatment cycles, adverse reactions (such as rash, headache, hirsutism, lower limb edema, and high blood pressure), and usage limitations (such as finasteride not being suitable for women). Therefore, it is necessary to develop functional ingredients with high safety and few side effects to promote hair growth to make up for the shortcomings of existing methods.
[0004] Studies have shown that hair loss is mainly caused by the aging of hair follicle stem cells. Type 17 collagen (XVII collagen) has high biocompatibility and good efficacy, and is a key molecule in preventing the aging of hair follicle stem cells (Science, 2016, 351, 6273). It can maintain the dry characteristics of hair follicles and promote hair regeneration. Among them, recombinant collagen can be produced on a large scale and with high purity, effectively avoiding the risk of pathogens, and has broad application prospects in the fields of cosmetics and biomedicine. However, recombinant collagen has a relatively large molecular weight and complex structure, making it difficult to penetrate multiple biological barriers in the body. It is easily metabolized and decomposed by gastric acid, enzymes, and enterohepatic circulation. When used to promote hair growth, more attention should be paid to the effective delivery of type 17 collagen to the target skin area to maximize the effect. Microneedling is a common method to improve the transdermal delivery efficiency of large molecular active ingredients such as proteins and peptides, but it is more destructive to the skin and may cause local tissue damage and pain, while also posing risks of cross-infection and allergic reactions. Ionic liquids possess advantages such as strong dissolving power and excellent transdermal absorption. When combined with active ingredients, they can be directly applied to the skin surface to deliver the active ingredients, increasing targeting and reducing adverse reactions, providing a new approach for efficient collagen delivery and hair growth promotion. However, current ionic liquid formulations may have strong irritant and sensitizing properties, resulting in poor skin compatibility. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a system with high transdermal delivery rate and low skin irritation, ensuring efficient transdermal collagen delivery while minimizing allergic reactions and user discomfort.
[0005] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a method for preparing recombinant collagen ionic liquid compositions that have good protein solubility, high transdermal efficiency, low skin irritation, short preparation cycle, simple process, and can be continuously produced.

[0121] Comparative Example 5
[0122] The difference from Example 8 is that the amino acid ionic liquid of Comparative Example 2 is used.
[0123] Comparative Example 6
[0124] The difference from Example 8 is that the amino acid ionic liquid of Comparative Example 3 is used.
[0125] Comparative Example 7
[0126] The difference from Example 8 lies in the use of a different amino acid ionic liquid, which is prepared as follows:
[0127] Under a nitrogen atmosphere, 0.1 mol of lysine was added to a round-bottom flask, followed by 50 mL of deionized water. The mixture was stirred thoroughly at 800 rpm.
[0128] Dissolve 0.4 mol of citric acid in 50 mL of deionized water, then add it dropwise to the reaction vessel and mix well. Stir the mixture magnetically at 100 °C for 18 hours.
[0129] After the reaction was complete, most of the water was removed by rotary evaporation at 70°C, and then the residual water was removed by drying in a vacuum oven at 60°C for 48 hours to obtain lysine citrate ionic liquid (1:4).
[0130] Test Example 1
[0131] The effect of the recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition prepared in this invention on promoting hair growth in mice was evaluated. Female C57BL / 6J mice (6-8 weeks old, 18-20g) were selected. Hair on the back was trimmed short with electric clippers. A suitable amount of depilatory cream was evenly applied to the trimmed area to remove residual hair. The area was washed with warm water and dried. The area covered was approximately 3cm × 2cm. The mice were considered clean when the skin on the back was smooth, without any breaks or residual hair. The depilated area and surrounding area were then disinfected with 75% ethanol. Mice with pink skin and telogen effluvium were selected to establish a mouse alopecia model. The next day, the mice were randomly divided into groups of 3: a control group (administered saline), a collagen group (recombinant collagen concentration consistent with Example 8), Example 7-11 groups, and Comparative Examples 4-6 groups. 。 The appearance of the products from Examples 8, 4, 5, and 6 is shown in Figure 5. The drugs were applied to the hair-removed areas on the backs of mice in each group once daily at a dose of 0.5 mL, covering the hair-removed area, for 14 consecutive days. Hair changes in the mice were observed from day 1 to day 21.
[0132] Seven days after administration, the backs of mice in the blank control group remained pink, indicating that the hair follicles were in the resting phase. The backs of mice in the collagen group and the Example 10 group (which had the lowest content of recombinant collagen in the composition) showed a small amount of light gray, indicating that collagen could promote the entry of hair from the resting phase into the growth phase, with a small amount of hair follicle growth. The Example 7, 8, 9, and 11 groups and the Comparative Examples 4-6 groups showed varying degrees of hair follicle growth. Among them, the Comparative Example 6 group had fewer hair follicles in the growth phase. There was no significant difference between the Example 7, 8, and 11 groups and the Comparative Examples 4 and 5 groups. The light gray area on the backs of mice in the Example 9 group was larger and more uniform, mainly due to the higher content of recombinant protein in this composition. After 12 days of drug administration, the skin on the backs of mice in the control group, collagen group, and Example 10 group appeared light gray to gray, with short hair growing in some areas. Among these, the collagen group, Example 10 group, and Comparative Example 6 group were superior to the control group. Examples 7, 8, 9, and 11 groups and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 groups showed better hair growth, with mice appearing dark gray to black. Example 9 group showed the best hair growth. Examples 7, 8, and 11 groups showed no significant difference in hair growth, but were superior to Comparative Examples 4 and 5. Comparative Examples 4 and 5 groups showed no significant difference in hair growth, but were superior to the control group and collagen group. After 14 days of drug administration, the hair of mice in the control group and collagen group was shorter and had not fully recovered to pre-hair loss levels. The hair of some mice in Example 10 group and Comparative Example 6 group returned to normal levels. The hair of mice in Examples 7, 8, 9, and 11 groups and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 groups all returned to normal levels, appearing as dark gray. After discontinuing the drug administration, the mice were observed again. It was found that some mice in the comparative groups 5 and 6 began to lose hair, with sparse hair on their backs, while mice in the examples 7-11 and the comparative group 4 did not experience hair loss. These results indicate that ionic liquids can promote hair growth in mice, but their composition affects the hair growth effect and its persistence. The ionic liquid composition described in this invention (examples 7-11) has a better hair growth promoting effect.
[0133] Test Example 2
[0134] The hair growth-promoting effect of the recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition prepared in this invention was evaluated. Eighty volunteers with hair loss problems, aged 25-55 years, were selected and divided into four groups of 20 each. Each group used the compositions of Comparative Example 4 and Examples 8, 9, and 11 (the pH of Comparative Examples 5 and 7 did not meet the requirements for skin care products (≥pH 4.5) and could not be used in human experiments; the composition of Comparative Example 6 had a strong odor, causing nausea and other reactions in the subjects, and the subjects were unwilling to try it). The compositions were applied once a day for 14 days or more, evenly covering the test area and left on for 15-30 minutes. The results and user experience were evaluated.
[0135] Table 1
[0136] As can be seen from the test results in Table 1, Examples 8, 9, and 11 of the recombinant collagen ionic liquid compositions provided by this invention significantly promote hair growth, with an effectiveness rate of 80% or higher. Compared with Comparative Example 4, Examples 8, 9, and 11 have superior safety and user experience; the subjects' acceptance rate of the composition's odor was 100%, and no adverse reactions occurred during use.
[0137] Test Example 3
[0138] A 45-year-old male used the recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition from Example 8 seven times a week, applying it to the scalp. It was completely absorbed within 15 minutes without pressing. After 14 consecutive days of use, short hairs began to grow and hair density increased (Figure 7).
[0139] Test Example 4
[0140] A 50-year-old woman used the recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition from Example 8 seven times a week, applying it to her scalp. It was completely absorbed within 15 minutes without pressing. After 60 days of continuous use, her hair loss significantly improved and her hair density significantly increased (Figure 8).
[0141] The results above show that the recombinant collagen ionic liquid composition provided by the present invention has good solubility, high transdermal efficiency, low irritation, short preparation cycle, simple process, and can be continuously produced. The ionic liquid composition and its preparation method are of great significance.
