Definitions
- the present invention relates to compositions that improve the aesthetic appearance of skin. More particularly, the present invention relates to topical cosmetic compositions having extracts of Amomum melegueta to treat aging skin.
- the appearance and physical properties of human skin cells especially keratinocytes, fibroblasts and sebocytes, change with age. In particular, the ability of these cells to transport in and utilize glucose decreases.
- a loss in take up and utilization of glucose manifests in an increased concentration of glucose in the extra cellular matrix and a decrease in cell metabolism.
- Decreased cell metabolism reduces both cell replication and cell vitality.
- a reduction in the rate of replication of basal epidermal cells reduces the thickness of the epidermis and, thus, the skin.
- increased extra cellular glucose accumulation in the skin leads to what is known as the formation of Advanced Glycation End (AGE) products and the loss of functional properties of collagen and elastin.
- AGE Advanced Glycation End
- cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha enzyme are believed to be responsible for both acute skin inflammation and subacute chronic inflammation, the cumulative degenerative effects of which lead to intrinsic and extrinsic aging.
- COX-2 cyclooxygenase-2
- TNF tumor necrosis factor
- topical compositions that have an effective amount of an extract of Amomum melegueta and optionally a cosmetically acceptable vehicle.
- a topical composition can be formulated to improve the aesthetic appearance of skin (including lips), particularly to prevent and/or ameliorate the effects of extrinsic and/or intrinsic aging of the skin.
- Intrinsic aging may include chronological aging.
- Extrinsic aging may include photoaging from ultraviolet light exposure and the effects of environmental pollution.
- the effects of skin aging include, but are not limited to: fragile skin, sagging skin, fine lines and/or wrinkles, thinning skin, lack-luster skin, fatigued skin, and dry skin.
- the present invention also provides a warming effect on skin.
- the topical composition has an effective amount of an extract of Amomum melegueta .
- the Amomum melegueta extract can be applied to the skin and/or scalp for a period of time and in an amount sufficient to prevent and/or ameliorate the skin condition.
- the extract can be applied as a composition of a pure extract or in a cosmetically acceptable vehicle.
- Amomum melegueta extract is obtained from the Amomum melegueta plant.
- Amomum melegueta plant is also known by the name of Grains of Paradise. Any part of the plant, such as the roots, can be used to obtain the extract. Over-the-ground parts, such as the leaf, stem, seeds, bark, fruit and flower are preferred. Seeds are most preferred.
- the extract may be obtained by any known extraction process with any known extraction solvent.
- the process can include one or more extractions with one or more solvents or mixtures of solvents.
- Useful extraction solvents include hydrophilic and hydrophobic solvents and any mixtures thereof. Supercritical fluids are also useful extraction solvents. If desired, solvents can be evaporated after extraction, and resulting residues can be used as is or be freeze-dried or reconstituted in another solvent(s) or mixture thereof in which the extract is either soluble, dispersible or suspendable.
- hydrophilic solvents include water, methanol, ethanol, brine solution, and solutions of solvent with inorganic and organic salts.
- hydrophobic solvents examples include liquid hydrocarbons, such as butane, pentane, hexane, heptane, and octane, as well as other water-immiscible organic compounds, such as ether, ester, amide, ketone, and aldehyde.
- Most preferred water-immiscible/hydrophobic solvents include hexane, diethyl ether, octanol, hexanol, and heptanol.
- the extract can also be extracted with organic solvents that are partially water miscible and/or completely water miscible.
- organic solvents include ethyl acetate; methyl acetate; lower ketones having no more than 4 carbon atoms, such as acetone; lower aldehydes having no more than 3 carbons, such as formaldehyde and acetaldehyde; and lower acid anhydrides, such as acetic acid anhydrides.
- An example of a useful supercritical solvent is liquid carbon dioxide.
- the effective amount of Amomum melegueta extract and the duration of its application will vary with the particular condition being treated, the age and physical condition of the person, the severity of the condition, the nature of concurrent therapy, the particular topical vehicle utilized, and like factors in the knowledge and expertise of those skilled in the art.
- the duration of application may be once or twice a day for a period of at least one week, two weeks or more.
- compositions of the present invention may take the form of a pure extract or an extract in combination with a cosmetically acceptable vehicle and/or additional ingredients.
- Amomum melegueta extract is present from about 0.0001 weight percent (wt %) to about 90 wt % based on the total weight of the composition. More preferably, the extract is present from about 0.001 wt % to about 50 wt %. Most preferably, the extract is present from about 0.01 wt % to about 15 wt %.
- active amount of Amomum melegueta extract absent diluent, solvent, or any other ingredient added for bulk.
- all weight percentages disclosed herein are based on the total weight of the composition unless otherwise noted.

- the calorimetric COX (ovine) inhibitor screening assay was used to test the COX-2 inhibitory activity of the Amomum melegueta extract.
- This assay uses the peroxidase component cyclooxygenase to measure the peroxidase activity colorimetrically by monitoring appearance of oxidized calorimetric substrate.
- the enzyme was added in the wells of a plate followed by the ethanolic solution of calorimetric substrate.
- the reagents were carefully mixed by shaking the plate.
- the colorimetric substrate solution was added to the wells followed by addition of COX-2 substrate, arachidonic acid. The plate was again carefully shaken. Inhibitory activity was calculated from these absorbance readings.
- Commercial drug and COX-2 inhibitor, Vioxx (Merck, Inc.) was used as a positive control.
- the Amomum melegueta extract demonstrated high inhibitory activity against the enzyme similar to the commercial drug Vioxx (Merck, Inc.) used as a control.
- the level of inhibition for the Amomum melegueta extract was 92% compared to 90% for Vioxx.
- ELISA enzyme linked immunoassay
- This assay employed the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique in which a monoclonal antibody specific for TNF-alpha has been pre-coated onto a microtiter plate.
- Culture supernatants from cells exposed to the active material were pipetted into separate wells. TNF-alpha in the supernatant was bound to the plate via the immobilized antibody. After several washes to remove unbound antibody, an enzyme-linked polyclonal antibody specific for TNF-alpha was added to each well. Following a wash to remove unbound antibody-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution was added to the wells. Color develops in proportion to the amount of TNF-alpha bound in the initial step. The results of the tests showed that the Amomum melegueta extract provided a 60 to 90% degree of TNF-alpha inhibition.
