Description

苦蕎麥種皮萃取物用於減緩肌膚老化的用途及其製備方法Use of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract for slowing skin aging and preparation method thereof

本發明係關於一種植物萃取物的用途,特別是關於一種苦蕎麥種皮萃取物用於製備減緩皮膚老化之組合物的用途以及其製備方法。The present invention relates to the use of a plant extract, in particular to the use of a tartary buckwheat seed coat extract to prepare a composition for slowing skin aging and a preparation method thereof.

皮膚對於人類個體提供對抗陽光中紫外線(ultraviolet,UV)輻射、病原體、摩擦力等環境因子的第一階段保護。皮膚由外向內依序包含表皮層、主要由結締組織所構成的真皮層、及皮下組織。其中,真皮層包含有膠原蛋白(collagen)、彈力蛋白(elastin)、及玻尿酸(hyaluronic acid)等分子,而膠原蛋白有如肌膚中的「支架」,彈力蛋白則有如肌膚中的「拴鎖」,藉由彈力蛋白將膠原蛋白進行連結,可賦予肌膚支撐性以及彈性。The skin provides human individuals with the first stage of protection against environmental factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, pathogens and friction in the sun. The skin includes the epidermis layer, the dermis layer mainly composed of connective tissue, and the subcutaneous tissue from the outside to the inside. Among them, the dermis contains molecules such as collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Collagen is like the "scaffold" in the skin, and elastin is like the "tether" in the skin. The collagen is linked by elastin to give support and elasticity to the skin.

膠原蛋白是肌膚中重要的基質蛋白,是具有三重螺旋的長鏈結構,在真皮層佔有較高的重量比例,為皮膚提供結構穩定性。而根據近期研究,膠原蛋白鏈的斷裂的其中一個可能因素是膠原蛋白的醣化(Non-enzymatic glycation,於蛋白質分子上附加糖類分子)。由於蛋白質的醣化會導致蛋白質功能的缺失,使得膠原蛋白鏈斷裂而加速其流失速率,進而促使肌膚老化或甚至其他相關疾病的產生。Collagen is an important matrix protein in the skin. It is a long-chain structure with a triple helix. It occupies a high weight ratio in the dermis and provides structural stability to the skin. According to recent studies, one of the possible factors for the breakage of collagen chains is the non-enzymatic glycation (addition of carbohydrate molecules to protein molecules). As the glycation of protein will lead to the loss of protein function, the collagen chain will be broken and its loss rate will be accelerated, which will promote skin aging or even other related diseases.

除了過去研究較著重的膠原蛋白外,彈力蛋白亦對肌膚的整體狀態具有重要影響。彈力蛋白是一種維持結締組織彈性的蛋白質,使體內許多組織在拉伸或收縮後,能恢復它們的形狀。而隨著年齡以及所接受到的外界傷害日益增加,彈力蛋白於肌膚中的含量亦將逐漸減少。當彈力蛋白流失時,即便膠原蛋白仍有一定比例,肌膚將同樣會因失去彈性而造成鬆弛以及皺紋。In addition to collagen, which has been studied in the past, elastin also has an important effect on the overall condition of the skin. Elastin is a protein that maintains the elasticity of connective tissue, allowing many tissues in the body to restore their shape after being stretched or contracted. With age and increasing external damage received, the content of elastin in the skin will gradually decrease. When elastin is lost, even if there is still a certain proportion of collagen, the skin will also lose its elasticity and cause sagging and wrinkles.

此外,當彈力蛋白及/或膠原蛋白流失時,將間接導致皮膚厚度變薄,使得表皮層更貼近真皮層中的血管,而讓肌膚整體呈現泛紅狀態,而影響其外觀。此狀態的肌膚相較於健康狀態的肌膚亦更為敏感,而更容易產生發炎等其他皮膚症狀。In addition, when the elastin and/or collagen is lost, it will indirectly cause the skin thickness to become thinner, making the epidermis closer to the blood vessels in the dermis, and making the skin appear reddish overall, which affects its appearance. Skin in this state is also more sensitive than healthy skin, and is more prone to other skin symptoms such as inflammation.

有鑑於此,研究或開發一種可降低膠原蛋白及/或彈力蛋白流失,以減緩皮膚老化的組合物,來維持或改善肌膚外觀是有其需求的。In view of this, there is a need to research or develop a composition that can reduce the loss of collagen and/or elastin to slow down skin aging to maintain or improve the appearance of the skin.

據此,本案的一目的在於提供一種苦蕎麥種皮萃取物用於製備抑制膠原蛋白醣化的組合物之用途,其中苦蕎麥種皮萃取物係以水萃取苦蕎麥種皮而獲得。Accordingly, one purpose of this case is to provide a use of a tartary buckwheat seed coat extract for preparing a composition for inhibiting saccharification of collagen, wherein the tartary buckwheat seed coat extract is obtained by extracting the tartary buckwheat seed coat with water.

根據本案的一些實施例,組合物係每日施予一所需個體並持續至少2周,其中組合物含有5克至10克的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物。According to some embodiments of this case, the composition is administered to a desired individual daily for at least 2 weeks, wherein the composition contains 5 to 10 grams of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract.

根據本案的一些實施例,組合物係進一步製備成醫藥組合物、食品組合物、或保健食品組合物。According to some embodiments of the present case, the composition is further prepared into a pharmaceutical composition, a food composition, or a health food composition.

本案的另一目的在於提供一種苦蕎麥種皮萃取物的製備方法,包括粉碎並過篩苦蕎麥種皮以形成苦蕎麥種皮粉;以及以水萃取苦蕎麥種皮粉以形成苦蕎麥種皮萃取物,其中苦蕎麥種皮粉及水的固液重量比為10:1至12:1。Another purpose of this case is to provide a preparation method of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract, which includes crushing and sieving tartary buckwheat seed coat to form tartary buckwheat seed coat powder; The solid-liquid weight ratio of buckwheat seed coat powder and water is 10:1 to 12:1.

根據本案的一些實施例,其中以水萃取苦蕎麥種皮粉以形成苦蕎麥種皮萃取物的步驟包括以水在80℃-90℃下萃取苦蕎麥種皮粉0.5-3.0小時以形成第一萃取液;冷卻第一萃取液至室溫;離心冷卻後的第一萃取液,並取其上清液為第一萃取上清液;過濾第一萃取上清液:以及減壓濃縮過濾後的第一萃取上清液以形成苦蕎麥種皮萃取物。According to some embodiments of the present case, the step of extracting tartary buckwheat seed coat powder with water to form a tartary buckwheat seed coat extract includes extracting tartary buckwheat seed coat powder with water at 80°C-90°C for 0.5-3.0 hours to form the first extract; Cool the first extract to room temperature; centrifuge the cooled first extract, and take the supernatant as the first extraction supernatant; filter the first extraction supernatant: and concentrate the filtered first extraction under reduced pressure The supernatant is used to form a tartary buckwheat seed coat extract.

在一些實施例中,減壓濃縮的溫度範圍值為45-70℃。In some embodiments, the temperature range of concentration under reduced pressure is 45-70°C.

以下將描述本案的部分具體實施態樣。在不背離本案精神下,本案尚可以多種不同形式之態樣來實踐,不應將保護範圍限於說明書所具體陳述的條件。The following will describe some specific implementation aspects of this case. Without departing from the spirit of this case, this case can still be practiced in many different forms, and the scope of protection should not be limited to the conditions specified in the specification.

本案使用Excel軟體進行統計分析。數據以平均值±標準差(SD)表示,各組之間的差異以學生t 檢驗(student'st -test)進行分析。This case uses Excel software for statistical analysis. Data mean ± standard deviation (SD), said difference between the groups in a Student's t-test (student's t -test) was analyzed.

蕎麥屬(Fagopyrum )中常見並可供食用的,可例舉如普通蕎麥(Fagopyrum esculentum ,又可稱蕎麥)以及苦蕎麥(Fagopyrum tataricum ,又可稱韃靼蕎麥)等物種。普通蕎麥普遍地生長於各大洲,而源自於西藏東部或雲南西北部的苦蕎麥則僅於亞洲、歐洲與北美洲種植。相較於稻,蕎麥屬生長期較短,可以在貧瘠的酸性土壤中生長,不需要過多的養分和氮素,但需要有充足的水分,可在比較涼爽的氣候下開花。故除了作為糧食外,可以在受水災以後作為補種,也可以作為綠肥、飼料或防止水土流失的覆蓋植物。Fagopyrum ( Fagopyrum ) is common and edible, such as common buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum , also called buckwheat) and tartary buckwheat ( Fagopyrum tataricum , also called buckwheat) and other species. Ordinary buckwheat is commonly grown on all continents, while tartary buckwheat originating in eastern Tibet or northwestern Yunnan is only grown in Asia, Europe and North America. Compared with rice, buckwheat has a shorter growth period and can grow in barren acid soil. It does not require too much nutrients and nitrogen, but it needs sufficient water to bloom in a cooler climate. Therefore, in addition to being used as food, it can be used as replanting after floods, or as green manure, fodder or covering plants to prevent soil erosion.

一般而言,植物的種子一般由種皮、胚和胚乳三個部分組成,蕎麥屬的種子亦相同。本案發現蕎麥屬當中的苦蕎麥,其種皮的萃取物具有減少體內彈性蛋白、膠原蛋白流失速度的功效,而可用於製備降低體內彈性蛋白、膠原蛋白流失的組合物的用途。而由於苦蕎麥種皮萃取物具有前述的功效,故可用以改善肌膚皺紋、肌膚泛紅等因彈性蛋白、膠原蛋白流失所產生的皮膚問題,進而改善整體肌膚外觀。Generally speaking, the seeds of plants are generally composed of three parts: seed coat, embryo and endosperm. The seeds of Fagopyrum are the same. In this case, it was discovered that the extract of the seed coat of tartary buckwheat in the genus Buckwheat has the effect of reducing the loss of elastin and collagen in the body, and can be used to prepare a composition for reducing the loss of elastin and collagen in the body. And because the tartary buckwheat seed coat extract has the aforementioned effects, it can be used to improve skin wrinkles, skin redness and other skin problems caused by the loss of elastin and collagen, thereby improving the overall skin appearance.

本文中所使用的用語「苦蕎麥種皮萃取物」,為苦蕎麥種皮與溶劑(例如水)經一特定時間與溫度萃取而得。The term "tartary buckwheat seed coat extract" used in this article is obtained by extracting tartary buckwheat seed coat and solvent (such as water) after a specific time and temperature.

本案的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物可用於製備降低體內彈性蛋白流失的組合物或是抑制膠原蛋白醣化的組合物,而組合物可為醫藥組合物、食品組合物、保健食品組合物。或者,食品或保養品中可包含有本案的醫藥組合物。或本案的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物可進一步製備成醫藥組合物、保養品組合物、食品組合物、或保健食品組合物。The tartary buckwheat seed coat extract in this case can be used to prepare a composition that reduces the loss of elastin in the body or a composition that inhibits the saccharification of collagen, and the composition can be a pharmaceutical composition, a food composition, or a health food composition. Alternatively, the food or skin care product may contain the pharmaceutical composition of this case.

[[ example 1]1] 苦蕎麥種皮萃取物的製備方法Preparation method of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract

在此實施例中,苦蕎麥種皮萃取物的製備步驟如下: 1. 將苦蕎麥(產地:台灣)的種皮經粉碎並以10目數(mesh)的篩網將其過篩,去除過大顆粒後取得苦蕎麥種皮粉。在另一些實施例中,篩網的目數可為8目或12目。 2. 將水與苦蕎麥種皮粉以11:1的重量比混合,並於85±5℃下浸泡約1.0小時以萃取苦蕎麥種皮粉,形成含有固體的第一萃取液。在另一些實施例中,溶劑與苦蕎麥種皮粉的重量比亦可為10:1至12:1,浸泡時的溫度可為80℃-90℃,萃取時間可為0.5至3.0小時。若溶劑過少或萃取時間過短,則萃取效率將會明顯下降;若萃取時間過長,則萃取物中的有效成分可能會產生降解。 3. 冷卻第一萃取液至室溫(25℃-30℃)。 4. 將冷卻後帶有固體的第一萃取液經離心機(廠牌/型號:Thermo Scientific Heraeus Fresco 17)離心約10分鐘,取其上清液為第一萃取上清液。 5. 將第一萃取上清液以400目數的濾網進行過濾,去除細微固體。 6. 將過濾後的第一萃取上清液以濃縮機(廠牌/型號:BUCHI -Rotavapor R-100),在60℃±5℃下進行減壓濃縮至溶液的白利糖度值(Degrees Brix)為2.0±0.5時停止濃縮,得到苦蕎麥種皮萃取物。在另一些實施例中,可於45℃-70℃下進行減壓濃縮。In this embodiment, the preparation steps of the tartary buckwheat seed coat extract are as follows: 1. The seed coat of tartary buckwheat (origin: Taiwan) is crushed and sieved with a 10 mesh screen to remove large particles to obtain the seed coat powder of tartary buckwheat. In other embodiments, the mesh number of the screen may be 8 mesh or 12 mesh. 2. Mix water and tartary buckwheat seed coat powder in a weight ratio of 11:1, and soak at 85±5°C for about 1.0 hour to extract the tartary buckwheat seed coat powder to form the first extract containing solids. In other embodiments, the weight ratio of the solvent to the tartary buckwheat seed coat powder can also be 10:1 to 12:1, the temperature during soaking can be 80°C-90°C, and the extraction time can be 0.5 to 3.0 hours. If the solvent is too little or the extraction time is too short, the extraction efficiency will be significantly reduced; if the extraction time is too long, the active ingredients in the extract may be degraded. 3. Cool the first extract to room temperature (25℃-30℃). 4. Centrifuge the cooled first extract with solids in a centrifuge (brand/model: Thermo Scientific Heraeus Fresco 17) for about 10 minutes, and take the supernatant as the first extraction supernatant. 5. Filter the first extraction supernatant with a 400 mesh filter to remove fine solids. 6. Use a concentrator (brand/model: BUCHI-Rotavapor R-100) to concentrate the filtered first extraction supernatant under reduced pressure at 60℃±5℃ to reach the Brix value of the solution (Degrees Brix). ) When it is 2.0±0.5, stop the concentration and obtain the tartary buckwheat seed coat extract. In other embodiments, concentration under reduced pressure may be performed at 45°C to 70°C.

[[ example 2]2] 膠原蛋白醣化量檢測Detection of collagen glycation amount

如同先前所述,膠原蛋白鏈的斷裂的其中一個因素是膠原蛋白的醣化。當蛋白質經醣化反應後將生成多種醣化終產物(Advanced glycation end products,AGEs),其為不可還原之物質,並改變及影響蛋白質的正常功能。因此,若能抑止膠原蛋白醣化則可防止膠原蛋白鏈斷裂,則可有效地降低膠原蛋白的流失速度。而為確認苦蕎麥種皮萃取物是否具有抑止膠原蛋白醣化的功效,進行膠原蛋白醣化量測試如下。As mentioned earlier, one of the factors for the breakage of collagen chains is the glycation of collagen. When a protein undergoes a glycation reaction, a variety of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) will be produced, which are non-reducible substances and change and affect the normal function of the protein. Therefore, if the glycation of collagen can be inhibited, the breakage of the collagen chain can be prevented, and the rate of loss of collagen can be effectively reduced. In order to confirm whether the tartary buckwheat seed coat extract has the effect of inhibiting the glycation of collagen, the amount of glycation of collagen was tested as follows.

Use the aforementioned 200 mM phosphate buffered saline and collagen powder (collagen purchased from Rousselot, model #P2000HD) to prepare a collagen solution with a concentration of 60 mg/mL. In addition, sodium azide is added to the collagen solution so that the collagen solution contains 0.06 wt% sodium azide. (Sodium azide purchased from Sigma, #S2002) 3. Use the aforementioned 200 mM phosphate buffered saline and fructose (fructose purchased from Sigma, #F0127) to prepare a fructose solution with a concentration of 1.5M.

膠原蛋白醣化測試: 1. 將前述4種濃度的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物溶液0.2 mL,分別與0.2 mL前述膠原蛋白溶液以及0.2 mL前述果糖溶液進行混合,配製出4組樣品溶液。 2. 將0.2 mL的去離子水與0.2 mL前述膠原蛋白溶液以及0.2 mL前述果糖溶液進行混合,配製出空白溶液作為控制組。 3. 將4組樣品溶液以及空白溶液於進行膠原蛋白醣化反應前,使用分光螢光計(spectrofluorometer,廠商/型號:BioTek FLx 800)測量其螢光強度(激發波長360 nm,放射波長460 nm)。 4. 將4組樣品溶液以及空白溶液置於50℃反應24小時,使各溶液進行膠原蛋白醣化反應。 5. 將反應後的4組樣品溶液以及空白溶液,同樣以分光螢光計測量其螢光強度(激發波長360 nm,放射波長460 nm)。 6. 依下列公式計算蛋白質醣化終產物相對生成率: [(樣品螢光強度反應後 - 樣品螢光強度反應前 )/(控制組螢光強度反應後 - 控制組螢光強度反應前 )]×100% 各樣品相對於控制組的蛋白質醣化終產物相對生成率顯示於圖1。Collagen saccharification test: 1.

Place the 4 sets of sample solutions and blank solutions at 50°C for 24 hours to allow each solution to undergo collagen glycation reaction. 5. Measure the fluorescence intensity of the 4 groups of sample solutions and blank solutions after the reaction with a spectrofluorometer (excitation wavelength 360 nm, emission wavelength 460 nm). 6. Calculate the relative production rate of the final protein glycation product according to the following formula: [( After the fluorescence intensity reaction of the sample- before the fluorescence intensity reaction of the sample)/( After the fluorescence intensity reaction of the control group- Before the fluorescence intensity reaction of the control group)]× The relative production rate of the final protein glycation products of each sample relative to the control group is shown in Figure 1.

如圖1所示,各濃度(0.1 mg/mL、0.5 mg/mL、1.0 mg/mL、以及5 mg/mL)的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物皆具有抑止膠原蛋白的醣化終產物產生的效果,且與苦蕎麥種皮萃取物的濃度具有相關性。於0.1 mg/mL、0.5 mg/mL、1.0 mg/mL、以及5 mg/mL的苦蕎麥種皮萃取物樣品溶液中,蛋白質醣化終產物相對生成率分別僅為控制組的92%、48%、31%、19%。顯示苦蕎麥種皮萃取物確實可抑止膠原蛋白的醣化反應,減少醣化終產物的生成,進而降低體內膠原蛋白的流失,達到減緩肌膚老化的功效。As shown in Figure 1, each concentration (0.1 mg/mL, 0.5 mg/mL, 1.0 mg/mL, and 5 mg/mL) of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract has the effect of inhibiting the production of the end product of collagen glycation, and It is correlated with the concentration of tartary buckwheat seed coat extract.

[[ example 3]3] 體內鎖鏈素含量檢測In vivo catenin content detection

彈力蛋白中具有一種特殊的成分—鎖鏈素(Desmosine),其是由三個醛賴氨酸側鏈和一個賴氨酸側鏈所形成的交聯體,可使膠原蛋白分子中2條以上的多肽鏈之間發生共價交聯。鎖鏈素特殊的構造與性質賦予彈力蛋白彈性以及連結性,使彈力蛋白可作為肌膚中膠原蛋白之間的「拴鎖」。Elastin has a special component-Desmosine, which is a cross-linked body formed by three aldehyde-lysine side chains and one lysine side chain, which can make more than two collagen molecules Covalent cross-linking occurs between the polypeptide chains. The special structure and properties of catenin give elastin elasticity and connectivity, so that elastin can act as a "tether" between collagen in the skin.

當彈力蛋白被分解時,其中所含的鎖鏈素即被釋放至血液中,使得血液中的鎖鏈素濃度升高;反之,若彈力蛋白的分解量減少,則血液中的鎖鏈素濃度將下降。因此,血液中鎖鏈素的濃度可作為彈性蛋白分解量的指標。而為確認苦蕎麥種皮萃取物是否可抑止彈力蛋白分解,進行體內鎖鏈素含量檢測如下。When elastin is decomposed, the catenin contained in it is released into the blood, causing the concentration of catenin in the blood to increase; conversely, if the decomposition amount of elastin decreases, the concentration of catenin in the blood will decrease. Therefore, the concentration of catenin in the blood can be used as an indicator of the amount of elastin decomposition. In order to confirm whether tartary buckwheat seed coat extract can inhibit the decomposition of elastin, the content of catenin in the body was tested as follows.
