Definitions

  • the present invention relates to methods for inhibiting tyrosinase activity by using an extract of Laminaria Saccharina.
  • Melanin is produced by a complex set of reactions within the melanocyte involving, at a basic level, the enzyme tyrosinase and the protein L-tyrosine. It is well recognized that tyrosinase is an essential component of melanin synthesis. Tyrosinase catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to DOPA (L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) and of DOPA to dopaquinone. Dopaquinone undergoes further conversion to form melanin. A need exists for novel methods and compositions by which to inhibit tyrosinase activity.
  • DOPA L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine
  • Extracts of Laminaria Saccharina a species of brown algae
  • Phlorogine Phlorogine is known as anti-seborrhoeic agent that can regulate the activity of sebaceous glands, as described for example in United States Patent Application Publication No. 2008/0119527A1.
  • Extraction methods for brown algae are also known.
  • European Patent No. 1074262B1 describes an extraction method for the class Phaeophyceae and the species Laminaria Ochroleuca. These extracts are described as being used in cosmetic compositions as an osmoprotector, free-radical scavenger, or against the effects of skin aging effects.
  • a cosmetic composition sold under the brand name SK-II Facial Clear Solution has a concentration of Phlorogine of about 1.25%.
  • the SK-II Facial Clear Solution is marketed as a gel hydrator that moisturizes the skin without increasing oily shine.
  • a method of inhibiting tyrosinase activity comprising the step of applying a composition comprising a Laminaria Saccharina extract to a substrate in need of tyrosinase inhibition.
  • a method of inhibiting tyrosinase activity of a skin surface comprising the steps of identifying a substrate in need of tyrosinase inhibition, wherein the substrate is an area on the skin surface; and applying a composition comprising a Laminaria Saccharina extract to the area, wherein the composition comprises 0.025% or less of a Laminaria Saccharina extract.
  • a method of inhibiting tyrosinase activity of a facial skin surface comprising the steps of selecting an area on the facial skin surface in need of tyrosinase inhibition, wherein the area is a hyperpigmented spot, applying a composition comprising a Laminaria Saccharina extract to the area, wherein the composition comprises 0.025% or less of a Laminaria Saccharina extract, and leaving the composition on the area for at least about 1 hour.
  • the present invention may take other forms. Further forms of the present invention will be appreciated from the detailed description that follows.
  • compositions of the present invention can comprise, consist essentially of, or consist of, the essential components as well as optional ingredients described herein.
  • “consisting essentially of” means that the composition or component may include additional ingredients, but only if the additional ingredients do not materially alter the basic and novel characteristics of the claimed compositions or methods.
  • applying means to place a composition of the present invention into contact with a suitable substrate.
  • compositions or components described are suitable for use in contact with human skin tissue without undue toxicity, incompatibility, instability, allergic response, and the like.
  • safe and effective amount means an amount of a compound or composition sufficient to significantly induce a positive benefit.
  • post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation refers to an acute or temporary increase in pigmentation as a response to a transient inflammatory event, especially in dark skin subjects. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation typically subsides once the transient inflammatory event dissipates. Examples of transient inflammatory events include, but are not limited to, acne lesions, ingrown hairs, scratches, insect bites, surfactant damage, and short-term UV exposure.
  • hyperpigmented spot refers to a defined area of skin wherein the pigmentation is greater than that of an adjacent area of skin due to localized and chronic or systemic overproduction of melanin.
  • Hyperpigmented spots can include one or more of age spots, sun spots, solar lentigos, hypo-melanotic lesions, freckles, and melasma spots.
  • age spots refers to a defined area of skin wherein the pigmentation is greater than that of adjacent skin due to localized and chronic overproduction of melanin caused by intrinsic or extrinsic aging factors.
  • skin tone agent refers to an agent that regulates melanin production signals, synthesis of melanin, systemic transfer of melanin between the melanocyte and the keratinocyte, and/or melanin degradation.
  • Skin tone agents can improve the appearance of uneven skin tone by acting as a lightening or pigmentation reduction cosmetic agent. Skin tone agents can be identified using biochemical assays, cell based assays, skin based ex-vivo assays, and/or en vivo testing.
  • skin tone refers to the overall appearance of melanin in the skin caused by the systemic, rather than transient, synthesis of melanin. Skin tone is typically characterized over a larger area of the skin. The area ideally may be than 100 mm 2 , but larger areas are envisioned such as the entirety of the facial skin or any of the facial skin surfaces. Skin tone can be measured by image analysis. For example, overall lightness can be measured by L* coordinate in L*a*b* color space (International Commission on Illumination). Chromophore mapping such as melanin mapping may be used as an indicator of overall skin tone. Mean melanin may be calculated from the chromophore map data. Additionally, skin ton evenness can be determined by melanin evenness which also may be determined calculated from the chromophore map data. Suitable chromophore mapping techniques are discussed in the example below.
