›FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to compositions that tend to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties, and more particularly, to compositions comprising combinations of anti-inflammatory agents, which compositions tend to exhibit unexpectedly high, synergistic anti-inflammatory properties as compared to conventional compositions.

›BACKGROUND

A wide variety of skin care actives suitable for use in personal care compositions are known. Examples of such skin care actives include olive leaf extract, which has been described as exhibiting antihypertensive and hypoglycemic activities, antiradical properties for alimentary and cosmetics, and anti-inflammatory activity when given via the oral route (see, for example, Leaf extract of Olea europea rich in oleuropeine, products from it, their application as medicines and compositions containing them.

Boll Chim Farm (1996) 135(1): 42-49), Sigesbeckia (Holy Herb), which has been used as a remedy for ague, rheumatism, renal colic, and as a cure for ringworm in conjunction with glycerine, Lignum Sappan (Sappan Wood), which has been used to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and to cause subsidence of swelling and relieve pain, and Feverfew, recognized as having significant medicinal properties when taken orally and used as a general febrifuge. Other skin care actives include oil extracts a such as Boswellia Serrata oil extract (Frankincense), described as exhibiting anti-tumor and anti-arthritic properties, and oat oil extract, described as exhibiting anti-irritant and an antioxidant properties.

Applicants have recognized the need to develop combinations of skin care actives to effectively treat, reduce, and/or prevent inflammation of the skin due to any of a variety of sources. While applicants have recognized a variety of actives that tend to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties, it is generally difficult, if not impossible, to predict combinations of such actives that will exhibit unexpectedly high, synergistic anti-inflammatory properties and effectiveness at reducing inflammation.

In addition, applicants have recognized that in certain uses it may be desirable to use relatively low amounts of actives from a cost perspective, to reduce undesirable color or odor associated with certain actives, for stability reasons, and the like. However, many actives, or combinations thereof, tend to exhibit relatively little or no effectiveness at reducing inflammation when applied in relatively low amounts. Accordingly, applicants have identified the need for combinations of skin care actives that exhibit relatively high, synergistic anti-inflammatory properties and effectiveness, and certain combinations that may further be effective even in relatively low amounts.

›SUMMARY OF INVENTION

Applicants have discovered compositions that meet the outstanding need for combinations of skin care actives that exhibit unexpectedly high, synergistic anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, applicants have recognized that certain of such compositions exhibit surprisingly high anti-inflammatory properties in relatively low amounts.

According to certain embodiments, the present invention provides compositions comprising (a) an anti-inflammatory agent selected from the group consisting of olive leaf extracts, holly herb, sappan wood, feverfew, and combinations of two or more thereof, and (b) an anti-inflammatory agent comprising at least one lipoaminoacid and at least one metal salt.

According to certain other embodiments, the present invention provides personal care products comprising a composition of the present invention.

In yet further embodiments, the present invention provides methods of treating/reducing inflammation and/or redness by contacting skin in need of inflammation reduction with a composition of the present invention and/or contacting skin in need of inflammation reduction with a personal care product of the present invention.

›DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS · 1 of 2

According to certain preferred embodiments, the present invention provides compositions comprising (a) an anti-inflammatory agent comprising olive leaf extract, holly herb, sappan wood, feverfew, or combinations of two or more thereof, and (b) an anti-inflammatory agent comprising at least one lipoaminoacid or salt thereof and at least one metal salt. Applicants have discovered unexpectedly that such combinations of anti-inflammatory agents exhibit synergistic and unexpectedly high anti-inflammatory properties, in particular, the compositions of the claimed invention exhibit anti-inflammatory properties that are greater than, and often about 1.2 times to greater than about 1.8 times greater than, the sum of the anti-inflammatory properties of the individual active components.

As used herein, the term “anti-inflammatory agent” refers generally to any compound or combination of compounds that, upon introduction to skin which exhibits inflammation, tends to reduce such inflammation. Examples of actives suitable for use in the present invention include olive leaf extracts, including any water or oil-soluble extracts of Olea europea , as well as, holly herb, sappan wood, feverfew, combinations of two or more thereof, and the like. In certain preferred embodiments, the active comprises olive leaf extract. Many of such suitable actives are commercially available from one or more sources, for example, olive leaf extract (water-soluble extract available from B&T srl (Milano, Italy) under the trade name Eurol BT and oil-soluble extract available from Active Organics), holy herb (available from Sederma Edison N.J.), and feverfew (available from Indena, Milan Italy), and the like.

Any suitable, cosmetically-acceptable anti-inflammatory agent comprising at least one lipoamino acid and at least one metal salt may be used herein. Examples of suitable lipoamino acids include those produced by linking amino acids, such as alanine, glycine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and the like, to fatty acid chains, such as, for example, cocoyl or other chains, and salts derived therefrom. Certain preferred lipoamino acids include cocoyl aminoacids (formed by linking alanine, glycine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid to cocoyl moieties), and salts thereof, including sodium salts, potassium salts, and the like. Certain particularly preferred lipoamino acids comprise sodium cocoyl aminoacids. Examples of suitable metal salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium salts, combinations of two or more and the like.

Certain preferred anti-inflammatory agents comprise at least one lipoamino acid and at least one metal aspartate. Certain more preferred agents comprises one or more lipoamino acids and at least two metal aspartates. For example, a particularly preferred anti-inflammatory agent comprises a combination of sodium cocoyl aminoacids, magnesium aspartate, and potassium aspartate (in combination with sarcosine) available commercially from Seppic under the trade names Sepicalm S and Sepicalm S WP.

Any suitable amounts of (a) anti-inflammatory agent selected from the group consisting of olive leaf extract, holly herb, sappan wood, feverfew, and combinations of two or more thereof (“agent (a)”) and (b) anti-inflammatory agent comprising at least one lipoamino acid and at least one metal salt (“agent(b)”) may be used in the present invention. In certain embodiments, the present compositions comprise from greater than zero to less than 100 weight percent of agent (a) and from less than 100 to greater than zero weight percent of agent (b) (as used herein and throughout, the term “weight percent” means the percent by weight, on an active basis, of an agent based on the total active weight of agent (a) and agent (b) unless specifically described otherwise). In certain preferred embodiments, the compositions comprise from about 10 to about 90 weight percent of agent (a) and from about 90 to about 10 weight percent of agent (b), more preferably from about 20 to about 80 weight percent of agent (a) and from about 80 to about 20 weight percent of agent (b), and even more preferably from about 40 to about 60 weight percent of agent (a) and from about 60 to about 40 weight percent of agent (b).

In certain preferred embodiments, the weight ratio of agent (a) to agent (b) is from about 4:1 to about 1:4. In certain other preferred embodiments, the ratio is from about 2:1 to about 1:2, and in other embodiments preferably about 1:1.

The compositions of the present invention may further include any of a variety of additional anti-inflammatory and other cosmetically-active agents in addition to agent (a) and agent (b). A “cosmetically active agent” is a compound that has a cosmetic or therapeutic effect on the skin, e.g., agents to treat wrinkles, acne, or to lighten the skin. In one embodiment, the agent is selected from, but not limited to, the group consisting of: hydroxy acids; benzoyl peroxide; sulfur resorcinol; D-panthenol; hydroquinone; anti-inflammatory agents; skin lightening agents; antimicrobial and antifungal agents such a miconazole, ketoconazole, and elubial; vitamins such as ascorbic acid; tocopherols and tocotrienols such as tocopheryl acetate; retinoids such retinol, retinal, retinyl palmitate, retinyl acetate, and retinoic acid; hormones such as estrogens and dihydroxyandrostene dione; 2-dimethylaminoethanol; lipoic acid; amino acids such a proline and tyrosine; lactobionic acid; self-tanning agents such as dihydroxy acetone; dimethyl aminoethanol; acetyl-coenzyme A; niacin; riboflavin; thiamin; ribose; electron transporters such as NADH and FADH2; botanical extracts such as ginkgo biloba, aloe vera, and soy; and derivatives thereof. Examples of hydroxy acids include, but are not limited, to (i) alpha-hydroxy acids such as glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, citric acid, and tartaric acid, (ii) beta-hydroxy acids such as salicylic acid, and/or (iii) polyhydroxy acids.

For example, the compositions and products may be applied topically to the skin, hair, or nails. Preferably, in certain embodiments, the compositions and/or products are applied topically to the skin.

Applicants have recognized that the present methods allow for the reduction of redness, and more generally, the reduction of inflammation to the skin in a manner more effective than comparable methods.

›EXAMPLES

The invention is further illustrated in the following examples that are intended to be illustrative, but not limiting in any manner.

›Examples4

›Example 1

Evaluation on RAW 264 Macrophage Cell Line

Mononuclear phagocytes, or macrophages, are found in large numbers of the skin and are an important component of the innate immune response. In skin, macrophages are the primary cells involved in recognizing and eliminating foreign pathogens such as bacteria through production of nitric oxide, a potent pro-inflammatory mediator. However, release of nitric oxide can also result in skin inflammation and damage to adjacent skin cells and unregulated nitric oxide production can result in tissue injury. The ability of Olive Leaf Extract, Sepicalm or a combination of Olive Leaf Extract and Sepicalm to affect the inflammatory response was illustrated by its ability to reduce macrophage activation in the following assay.

RAW 264 Murine Macrophages Stimulated by LPS Percent (%) Ratio Inhibition of Nitric Sepicalm: Olive Test material (Concentration) Oxide Release Leaf Extract Olive Leaf extract (.01%) 6.5 +/− 0.8 1:1 Sepicalm (.01%) 12.1 +/− 0.05 Olive Leaf Extract (.01%) + Sepicalm 20.9 +/− 0.02* (.01%) Olive Leaf extract (.02%) 24.5 +/− 1.2 1:1 Sepicalm (.02%) 27.1 +/− 1.1 Olive Leaf Extract (.02%) + Sepicalm 77.2 +/− 0.1* (.02%) Olive Leaf (.005%) 1.31 +/− 0.6 4:1 Sepicalm (.02%) 32.1 +/− 0.6 Olive Leaf (.005%) + Sepicalm (.02%) 39.8 +/− 1.4* Sepicalm (.005%) 3.26 +/− 1.5 1:4 Olive Leaf (.02%) 16.6 +/− 0.6 Sepicalm (.005%) + Olive Leaf (.02%) 29.31 +/− 2.1* *= P < 0.05 compared to Olive Leaf Extract or Sepicalm alone using an unpaired students t-Test

While both Olive Leaf Extract and Sepicalm have moderate anti-inflammatory activity individually, we surprisingly found that a combination of Olive Leaf Extract and Sepicalm is remarkably effective in reducing inflammation. The anti-inflammatory activity of the combination of Olive Leaf Extract and Sepicalm is greater than the sum of the individual activities, indicating that the combination of Olive Leaf Extract and Sepicalm has a synergistic response.

›Example 2

Comparison of Sepicalm Potentiation of Water Soluble Vs Oil Soluble Natural Extracts in RAW 264 Macrophage Cell Line

The ability of Sepicalm to synergistically enhance the anti-inflammatory activity of water soluble and oil soluble extracts of natural materials was illustrated by its ability to reduce macrophage activation in the following assay.

The murine macrophage cell line (RAW264) cells were adjusted to a density of 4×105 6 cells/mL in DMEM with 10% FBS (American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, Va.) and 100 μL was added to a flat-bottomed 96-well tissue culture plate. Murine macrophage cells were stimulated with 0.1 μg/ml of the bacterial cell well component, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as positive control or in the presence or absence of Sepicalm, water soluble extracts ( Siegesbeckia and Lignum Sappan ), partially water soluble/partially oil soluble extracts (Feverfew), oil soluble extracts (Oat Oil Extract, Boswellia Serrata Oil Extract) or a combination of extract plus Sepicalm. Sigesbeckia, so called the Holy Herb, is an aqueous extract. (Sederma Edison N.J.). In China it is used as a remedy for ague, rheumatism, and renal colic; used in Britain chiefly as a cure for ringworm in conjunction with glycerine. Lignum Sappan also called Sappan Wood, is an aqueous extract of dried heart wood of Caesalpinia sappan . It is used to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and to cause subsidence of swelling and relieve pain. Feverfew has both water soluble and oil soluble components. (Indena, Milan Italy). Tanacetum parthenium , a plant commonly known as Feverfew, has been recognized since the Middle Ages as having significant medicinal properties when taken orally—used as a general febrifuge, hence its common name. Boswellia Serrata oil extract (Quest Intl, South Plainfield, N.J.) also called Frankincense is an extract of the oleo-gum resin of the tree, Boswellia serrata , found in the dry forests in parts of India. Its oleo-gum resin is fragrant, transparent and brownish yellow in color. The main ingredients of the extract are three triperpene acids, □, and □-boswellic acids, of which □-boswellic acid has been shown to be responsible for the anti-tumor and anti-arthritic properties of Boswellia serrata . Oat oil extract (Dragoco, Totowa, N.J.) isolated from oat, Avena sativa , has been used as an anti-irritant and an antioxidant. Macrophage cultures were treated for 24 hours at 37° C. with 5% CO 2 in the presence or absence of test samples then Nitrites formation, the stable end product of nitric oxide, were assayed for with the Griess assay. Results are expressed as the percent inhibition of inflammatory mediator production compared to a stimulated control culture.

RAW 264 Murine Macrophages Stimulated by LPS Percent (%) Inhibition of Nitric Oxide Test material (concentration) Release Physical Solubility Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) 10.58 +/− 0.7 Siegesbeckia (2 ug/ml) 20.2 +/− 1.7 Water Soluble Siegesbeckia (2 ug/ml) + 53.9 +/− 0.8* Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) Lignum Sapen (20 ug/ml) 25.9 +/− 5.2 Water Soluble Lignum Sapen (20 ug/ml) + 66.8 +/− 1.3* Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) Feverfew (80 ug/ml) 36.0 +/− 1.0 Water Soluble/ Oil Soluble Feverfew (80 ug/ml) + 55.63 +/− 1.9* Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) Oat Oil Extract (50 ug/ml) 8.3 +/− 3.6 Oil Soluble Oat Oil Extract (50 ug/ml) + 12.5 +/− 0.6 Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) Boswellia Serrata Oil Extract 8.7 +/− 3.1 Oil Soluble (50 ug/ml) Boswellia Serrata Oil Extract 17.55 +/− 0.6 (50 ug/ml) + Sepicalm (200 ug/ml) *= P < 0.05 compared to compound/extract alone using a paired students t-Test

Sepicalm was shown to produce a synergistic increase in anti-inflammatory activity of water soluble extracts ( Siegesbeckia and Lignum Sapen ), and partially water soluble/partially oil soluble extracts (Feverfew), but didn't synergistically increase anti-inflammatory activity of oil soluble extracts (Oat Oil Extract, Boswellia Serrata Oil Extract). These findings demonstrate that Sepicalm can potentiate the activity of water soluble extracts and partially water soluble/partially oil soluble extracts.

›Example 3

A study was performed on four adult Caucasian females having the skin type 1-3 on the Fitzpatrick scale. No lotion/product use was allowed during the study in the areas designated for the study.

The skin of volunteer subjects was induced to dry out during a conditioning period. Subjects were asked to follow a skin-dry out protocol for 7 days prior to the study. This consisted of washing both legs (from the knee below) with Ivory soap twice a day. This protocol was continued during the course of the study.

For the study, assessments were made both before and 4 hours after a fixed amount of product was applied. Irritation was also induced onto a separate site on the leg using a shaving protocol prior to product application on days 1 and 3 only, and measures taken as described above. Two products were tested; a product containing an active composition consisting of 1.0% Sepicalm, 0.01% Olive Leaf, and 0.5% Coviox T90 (the “active” product) and an identically formulated placebo product (“placebo”), having only 0.01% olive leaf as the anti-inflammatory active.

Assessments included the evaluation of skin redness, quantified using Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to measure absorption by oxyhemoglobin.
