Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel melanin decomposition promoter and/or a novel melanin production inhibitor, as well as cosmetic compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, and topical skin preparations containing these.
  • Melanin a black pigment, is produced and stored in melanosomes within melanocytes, which are pigment cells, in the basal layer, the lowest layer of the epidermis. Melanosomes containing accumulated melanin migrate to epidermal keratinocytes and are distributed above the cell nuclei within the epidermal keratinocytes.
  • melanin plays a role in protecting the skin from UV damage, it can also cause cosmetic problems such as age spots and freckles. Age spots and freckles are caused by the excessive accumulation of melanin, and excessive melanin production due to UV rays and external stimuli is a major contributing factor.
  • Tyrosinase is known as a melanin-producing enzyme. Tyrosinase acts in two processes: a reaction to produce dopa from the amino acid tyrosine, and a reaction to produce dopaquinone from the produced dopa (Non-Patent Document 1), (Non-Patent Document 2). Melanin is ultimately produced from the dopaquinone produced by these reactions, but because the reactions following dopaquinone proceed spontaneously, tyrosinase, which acts during the production of dopa and dopaquinone, can be said to be the rate-limiting enzyme in melanin production. Tyrosinase is activated by ultraviolet rays and external stimuli, so in order to prevent excessive melanin production, it is important to suppress excessive tyrosinase activity.
  • kojic acid and 4-butylresorcinol are known as tyrosinase inhibitors.
  • Kojic acid is a compound discovered in koji rice, and is widely known as a skin-lightening agent with tyrosinase inhibitory activity (Non-Patent Document 3), (Non-Patent Document 4).
  • 4-Butylresorcinol is a chemically synthesized tyrosinase inhibitor that is known to have much greater inhibition than kojic acid (Non-Patent Document 5), (Non-Patent Document 6).
  • Melanin is produced in small vesicles called melanosomes within melanocytes.
  • the melanosomes that store melanin are transported to surrounding keratinocytes via the dendrites of melanocytes.
  • the transported melanosomes cover the apical nuclei of keratinocytes (called the melanin cap), which plays a role in preventing DNA damage caused by harmful ultraviolet rays while also promoting skin darkening (Non-Patent Document 7).
  • Non-Patent Document 8 Melanosomes are normally broken down and excreted as keratinocytes turnover. However, if turnover does not occur normally and melanosomes accumulate in keratinocytes, melanin pigment is deposited, appearing as age spots. Furthermore, it has been reported that excessive accumulation of melanosomes may reduce keratinocyte cell division and slow turnover, and it is thought that this vicious cycle escalates pigmentation (Non-Patent Document 8).
  • promoting the breakdown of melanosomes not only improves pigmentation such as blemishes and freckles that have already formed, but also helps prevent the development of further blemishes, making it a very important factor in terms of whitening.
  • Non-Patent Document 9 Light skin has higher autophagy activity and a faster rate of melanin loss than dark skin (Non-Patent Document 10), (Non-Patent Document 11). Furthermore, light skin has a higher expression level of cathepsin V than dark skin, and this characteristic is unique to cathepsin V among the several types of cathepsins present, so cathepsin V is thought to be involved in the degradation of melanosomes and melanin (Non-Patent Document 12).

  • melanin production inhibitors or melanin degradation promoters could regulate the amount of melanin within cells, thereby reducing the amount of melanin present between the cells of the stratum corneum, and thus be effective in preventing and improving age spots and freckles caused by melanin pigment deposition, and maintaining cell turnover function. Therefore, they comprehensively investigated the inhibitory activity against melanin production and/or the promoting effect against melanin degradation of a wide variety of substances, and found that certain compounds have specific inhibitory activity against melanin production and/or excellent promoting effect against melanin degradation. Furthermore, they confirmed that these specific compounds also have the activity to reduce the amount of melanin in cells, and based on this, they completed the present invention.
