Definitions
- the present invention relates to special extracts (liquid and dry extracts) from Epimedium species, to processes for their preparation, to medicaments and foods containing them, in particular dietetic foods, nutritional supplements and "medical food” and “dietary supplements”, and to the use of the special extracts for Prophylaxis and treatment of disease states that are caused by a lack of estrogens or by a dysregulation of the sex hormone metabolism, in particular of the estrogen metabolism.
- Irregular menstrual cycles typically occur in women around the age of 45 and mark the onset of menopause. This period characterized by changes in the endocrine system, which may extend over a period of up to 10 years, is known as menopause or climacteric. It is triggered by the decreasing responsiveness of the ovaries to gonadotropins and the cessation of regular follicular maturation. As a result, there is a decrease and finally the final discontinuation of ova ⁇ ellen Ostrogensynthese. Due to the lack of estrogen production develop various deficiency symptoms, such as hot flashes, palpitations, depression, anxiety, headaches, sleep disorders, irritability or concentration disorders. In addition to acute climacteric symptoms, long-term postmenopausal health problems such as osteoporosis and atrophy of the urogenital mucosa and increased susceptibility to cardiovascular disease, stroke, Develop Alzheimer's disease or certain tumor diseases.
- HET for the treatment of vasomotor and mental climacteric complaints is no longer responsible and is now rejected by many women.
- HET for the prophylaxis of osteoporosis is to assess, especially since it is usually a long-term treatment. For these reasons, there is a great need for alternative therapy options with a better benefit-risk profile.
- Substances which interact with the endocrine system in humans or animals and thereby produce an estrogen-like effect by influencing hormone-regulated signaling pathways have been found in many plants. At least 20 different substance groups with estrogenic / anti-estrogenic egg properties from more than 300 plants from more than 16 plant families have been found so far. Most known phytoestrogens belong to the groups of isoflavones, lignans or cumestanes. For numerous phytoestrogens, selective estrogen receptor modulating (SERM) properties are described. In contrast to natural estrogen, these compounds have partial, organ-specific estrogenic activity.
- SERM selective estrogen receptor modulating
- phytoestrogens are particularly advantageous, the agomstisch on certain target organs act (eg bones, vessels) or target symptoms (eg hot flashes) act, but at the same time no or estrogen have antagonistic effects on the mammary gland or the uterus.
- TCM Traditional Chinese medicine
- epi-medium species ferns Berberidaceae
- These are Epimedium brevicornum, E. sagittatum, E. pubescens, E. wushanense and E. koreanum, E. davidu, E. hunanense.
- the first five Epimedium species are part of the Herba Epimedii monograph of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (Pharmacopoea of the Peoples Republic of China, Vol. I, 2000) and are formulated as a preparation with renal fat for the treatment of impotence, limb weakness, rheumatic pains and climacteric Used complaints.
- herbs of the Epimedium Gattunq are used by the physicians in the form of various preparations, but not in the form of extracts from extraction with organic solvents for the treatment of impotence, spermorrhea, micturition, fatigue, lumbar and knee pain, infertility, amenorrhoea , Senile depression, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular failure, hypertension, chronic bronchitis, angina pectoris and other diseases.
- H. Wu, EJLien and LL Lien Progress in Drug Research, Vol.60, 2-57, Ed E. Jucker, 2003).
- Epimedium species contain primarily Prenylflavonglyko- side as main ingredients.
- Icariin 1 is a major glycoside and is found in many Epimedium species.
- Other constituents are its desmethyl analogue epimedoside A 2.
- free prenylflavones such as icaritine and free nonprenylated flavones such as luteolin occur.
- chemically non-uniform group of icarisides e.g. Icarisid I3, as a major component group (H.Wu, E.J.Lien and L.L. Lien, in Progress in Drug Research, Vol.60, 2-57, Ed E. Jucker, 2003).
- US6238707 describes a composition of at least 10 different drugs which also contains epimedium for the treatment of hormonal disorders in women. It is obvious that only a small concentration of the epimedium ingredients can be present in this composition.
- No. 6,750,248 (corresponding to WO03040134) describes micro-preparative methods for the production and isolation of estrogen-active substances from plants such as, for example, Epimedium species. Also claimed are three estrogen-active compounds that have been microproperatively isolated and characterized from Epimedium herb. It is not known which Epimedium species were included in the herb drug used.
- the described methods for isolating the claimed estrogenic compounds are very expensive, uneconomical and technologically unusable. These include liquid-liquid distribution, solid-phase fractionation, thin-layer chromatography, flash chromatography, and high performance or high pressure liquid chromatography. For liquid-liquid distribution, however, no concrete suitable solvents are mentioned.
- amino acid-like or alkaloid-like ingredients in simple Epimedium extracts could now be clearly detected by means of thin layer chromatography (Dragendorff and iodoplatinate reagent) and HPLC.
- the main compound of this amine or Alkaloidfrakti- on the Aporphinalkaloid Magnoflorin was identified. Magnoflorm has weak curare-like and hypotensive properties. Such compounds may also have excelled cytotoxic properties.
- These plant extracts are characterized by the fact that they have lower undesirable side effects compared to conventional estrogen-effective extracts and are free of toxicologically questionable amines or alkaloids.
- Another object of the invention is to provide such extracts which also have improved pharmaceutical properties and thus are better galenically processable and optically acceptable.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide methods of making these special extracts, as well as drugs and foods containing these special extracts.
- Corresponding special extracts may e.g. from the following epi-medium species (Fern. Berberidaceae): Epimedium brevicornum, E. sagittatum, E. pubescens, E. wushanense and E. koreanum, E. davidii, E. hunanense, E. grandiflorum, E. acuminatum, E. lotorrhizum, E. wanshanense, E. fragesii, E. sutchuenense, E. diphyllum, E. sempervirens, E. baicaliquizhounense, E. caotum, E. glandulospilosum, E. zushanense, E.
- Epimedlum species are Epimedium brevicornum, Epimedium sagittatum, Epimedium pubescens, Epimedium wushanense and Epimedium koreanum, which are approved as plants for the drug Herba Epidemii of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
- Epimedium brevicornum for special extracts according to the invention from the leaves of Herba Epimedii, surprisingly, in the context of the present invention, particularly strong estrogenic effects were found.
- the special extracts according to the invention could be obtained from primary extracts by further separation and purification. It was found that the observed pharmacological effects are caused by the interaction of the prenylated flavone compounds present in the extracts. Due to the strong depletion, in particular of the aporphinal cocoa magnoflorin, the special extracts according to the invention also have lower undesired side effects.

- To determine nonspecific binding cells were incubated in the presence of 100 nM unlabelled estradiol. The blank used was samples without labeled estradiol. Percent inhibition of receptor binding was calculated in each case in comparison to a parallel tested solvent control (DMSO, 0.1%). The determination of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) was carried out by non-linear regression calculation.
- the special dry extracts according to the invention are approximately 3 to 6 times more effective with respect to the reference extract. With respect to the value of pure 17 ⁇ -estradiol they are less effective. However, the concentrations of the phytostenes in the organism are many times greater than those of the body's own steroids (17 ⁇ -estradiol) in the above-mentioned conventional dosages, so that the effect of the special dry extracts in the organism corresponds approximately to that of 17 ⁇ -estradiol.
