Provided are an anti-inflammatory agent containing, as an active ingredient, at least one selected from amino acid derivatives represented by formula (I) wherein Ar represents an optionally substituted 2-hydroxyaryl group, n is 0 or 1, R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a side chain of an &agr;-amino acid or &bgr;-amino acid, X represents —O— or —NH—, R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a group that forms, together with R2 and an adjacent atoms, a cyclic structure of pyroglutamic acid, and R3 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms or an alkenyl group having from 2 to 22 carbon atoms, and salts thereof, and toiletries or skin external products containing the same. The anti-inflammatory agent of the invention inhibits expression of an inflammatory protein and activation of a gene transcription control factor that participates therein, and exhibits a good feeling upon use and a safety.
摘要:
The present invention provides cystine derivatives, which may be in a free form, a salt form, a solvate form. The cystine derivatives of the present invention may be used to suppress activation of inflammatory factors. Accordingly, the present invention provides: compositions containing the cystine derivatives; a method for suppressing the activation of inflammatory factors by administering the composition; a method for preventing, ameliorating and/or therapeutically treating diseases, skin injuries or disorders involved in the activation of inflammatory factors by administering the composition; a method for preventing, delaying, ameliorating and/or therapeutically treating skin change via aging or aesthetically unfavorable skin change as induced or promoted by inflammatory factors by administering the composition; and pharmaceutical agents containing the cystine derivatives.
摘要:
Objects of the present invention are to provide an oxidative stress inhibitor which is capable of suppressing the expression of a cytotoxic protein and the activation of a gene transcriptional regulatory factor taking part such expression of a cytotoxic protein and exhibits good feeling upon use and safety; to provide a method for preventing, retarding, alleviating or treating a skin change due to aging or an undesirable aesthetic skin change, both caused or promoted by an oxidative stress; and to provide a cosmetic composition or dermatologic preparation for external use comprising the oxidative stress inhibitor as an effective ingredient, and for those purposes are employed an oxidative stress inhibiting agent which comprises, as an effective ingredient, at least one selected from cysteine or cystine derivatives and the salts thereof.
摘要:
A novel anti-active oxygen agent which comprises as active ingredient an amino acid derivative represented by the following general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein Ar represents a 2-hydroxyphenyl, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl or pyridyl group, and one or more of the hydrogen atoms attached to the aromatic ring of these groups may be substituted with a halogen atom, or an alkyl, hydroxyl, hydroxyalkyl, nitro, alkoxyl or carboxyl group; R represents the side chain of an amino acid; X represents --CH.sub.2 --NH-- or --CH.dbd.N--; Y represents a hydrogen atom, --COOR.sup.1, --SO.sub.3 H, --CON(R.sup.2)R.sup.3, --CONHCH(R.sup.5)COOR.sup.4 or --CH.sub.2 OH (where each of R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group, and R.sup.5 represents the side chain of an amino acid); and n represents an integer of 0 or 1;or its salt,and which inhibits generation of active oxygen species, has a high safety and can be prepared at relatively low costs.
