Description

Herbal Extract Composition for Prevention or Treatment of Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome Using Herbal Extract}

The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating obesity and metabolic syndrome using a composite herbal medicine.

Obesity was already prescribed as a disease in 1996 by the World Health Organization. About 150 million people worldwide have experienced obesity, a health risk factor, and since obesity is directly related to various adult diseases, there is an urgent need for treatment for obesity. In addition, the market size of obesity drugs is on the rise due to the improvement of economic level and increased interest in appearance.

The market for obesity drugs was about $ 1.3 billion in 2000 and is growing at an annual average of nearly 20%. There are more than 10 kinds of obesity treatments currently in final stage of clinical trials or waiting for FDA's approval.Jenical and Reductil have already been approved by the US FDA as well as introduced in Korea and are rapidly spreading. [Health Industry Technology Trend, 2001 winter].

Obesity is a problem that obesity itself causes constipation, indigestion, gastrointestinal disorders due to the abdominal pressure by the fat tissue, as well as the risk factors of many adult diseases. Obesity is known to cause all kinds of complications such as cancer, arteriosclerosis, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and other complications, and in 1996, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned that obesity is a disease that needs treatment. A study of 750,000 people reported a 1.9-fold increase in mortality in men and women over 40% above average body weight compared to those of normal weight. In particular, in recent years, such obesity has been found to be the cause of the development of the so-called metabolic syndrome (X-syndrome), which is considered to be a pre-development stage of diabetes and hypertension, and its prevalence is found to be one quarter of the world's population. Its seriousness is growing.

Metabolic syndrome is characterized by insulin resistance, abdominal obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and is a particularly frequent symptom in obese people. The WHO warned the American Medical Association (JAMA) that anyone with a metabolic syndrome is more likely to become a diabetic, stroke or heart disease patient.

Metabolic syndrome patients are those who overlap three or more of the following five symptoms.

(1) Waist circumference ------- (Male) More than 100 cm (Female) More than 88 cm

(2) Blood pressure ----------- 135/80 mmHg or more

(3) blood sugar ----------- 110 (fasting) mg / or more

(4) Neutral lipid ------- 150 mg / dl or more

(5) HDL levels ----- (male) 40 mg / dl or less (female) 50 mg / dl or less

It is clear that the metabolic syndrome patients are ultimately derived from obesity. At this time, the management of obesity is more important in relation to the occurrence of metabolic syndrome patients, which is a pre-development stage of most adult diseases.

Obesity is a condition where excess fat is accumulated in the body, and fat is accumulated in the body due to excessive intake of sugar (carbohydrate) or excessive intake of fat. The mechanism of reaching obesity is that by over-ingesting the sugar, the sugar in the food is digested and becomes monosaccharide and absorbed into the body through the small intestine.Increased blood sugar increases insulin secreted by the stimulus and acts on fat cells to release the monosaccharide in the blood. Fat cells are taken in and converted into fat. In addition, fat, which is the highest calorie among food ingredients, is broken down by pancreatic lipase and absorbed through the small intestine, resulting in an increase in stored calories due to excess calories. That is, obesity is caused by excess fat intake.

Therefore, research on various anti-obesity agents is currently being conducted based on the idea of generating anti-obesity effects by inhibiting a part of certain pathways leading to obesity.

Glycolytic digestion, which inhibits the path to obesity due to excessive intake of glucose, suppressed the rise in blood sugar, or suppressed the adsorption of cholic acid, which inhibits the path to obesity, by inhibiting the absorption of monosaccharides or by excessive intake of fat, cholesterol lowering It is thought that obesity can be prevented and improved by the action, the blood triglyceride lowering action, or the lipase inhibitory action, and the research on the pharmaceutical component which has these actions is continuing.

Sudden postprandial blood sugar rise and excessive insulin secretion due to excessive intake of carbohydrates (sugars) can lead to diabetes or hyperlipidemia in addition to obesity [pharmacology and treatment Vol. 19, No. 10 Oct. 274, 1991] is known to inhibit and improve diabetes or hyperlipidemia by inhibiting glycolysis digestive enzymes. Therefore, glycosylated digestive enzyme inhibitors, monosaccharide absorption inhibitors, or blood glucose elevation inhibitors are considered to be useful as antidiabetic agents, antihyperlipidemic agents, or antiarteriosclerosis agents. Glycolytic digestive enzyme inhibitors currently being used as drugs include acarbose (Acarbose, Bayer Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) and Bogriboose (AO-128, Daeda Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), a post-prandial hyperglycemic improver. These animals have been shown to have an inhibitory effect on post-prandial blood sugar levels in animal and clinical trials. Exp. Med.vol. 175, 87 (1979), Japanese Society for Agricultural Chemistry vol. 63, 217 (1989), New Current vol. 6, 2 (1995). In addition, methods of inhibiting the path leading to obesity by ingesting fat (triglyceride) include cholic acid adsorption excretion, cholesterol lowering, blood triglyceride lowering, lipase inhibition, and the like. Drugs with cholic acid excretion include cholstyramine, a hypercholesterolemic drug, which is an anion exchange resin. By oral administration of the anion exchange resin, the anion exchange resin is circulated in the gut [Makino Isaora, Taisha, vol. 24, No. 8, 685-692, 1987] adsorption and fixation of intestinal cholic acid, which hinders resorption of cholic acid, promotes the conversion of cholesterol into cholic acid in the liver, and consequently lowers blood cholesterol concentration. However, the usage of cholestyramine is that 9 g is taken in 100 mL of water, so the dose is very high, and when taken, the rough unpleasant texture of the resin remains in the mouth, making it very difficult for the patient to take it. There was a problem.

As described above, a number of chemical synthetic compounds having respective actions have been reported and used as medicines, but they have a problem in that they have a high dose or are unpleasant at the time of taking them, and because they are chemical synthetic compounds, the subjects may not In some cases, safety was anxiety.

Therefore, due to such safety issues, product development using natural products at home and abroad is increasing.

In particular, Cois semen, Dioscoreae rhizoma, Gilkyung (Platycodi radix, bellflower), Schizandrae fructus, Citrus unshiu Markovich, Aloe vera, Adenophorae radix (Sasam), etc. Some anti-obesity drugs have been developed, which consist of extracts of several herbal drugs or mixtures. In addition, Korean Patent Publication No. 2007-0042755 discloses a composition for inhibiting or treating obesity using a ginseng component, and in KR0733336, a composition for preventing or treating obesity or hyperlipidemia using a root is registered.

However, in the case of such natural-derived products so far known, the material is very expensive, many times to consume a large amount to obtain a proper effect, or the effect to prevent obesity and prevent hyperlipidemia in many cases.

Therefore, there is a need to research and develop a new herbal composition that can be easily obtained even though it is a natural material and can have a more complex effect.

In addition, the applicant of the patent has registered a patent for the treatment of obesity using the herbal medicines such as white hair roots and the inhibitory composition (or extract) through the registration publications KR0573590, KR0573591 and KR0573592, but further research has shown that it is superior in abdominal fat reduction. It is a new invention of the composition of the present invention to effect.

Therefore, the present inventors confirmed that the complex extracts of the herbal medicines, Osuyu, Baek-geun-geun and Cheongpi, were effective in inhibiting weight gain, abdominal fat reduction, and triglyceride and blood glucose levels through animal experiments. In addition, in vitro tests confirmed the effect of increasing the activity of AMPK enzyme, a biomarker related to obesity and diabetes, and also confirmed the effect of increasing glucose absorption in myocytes and adipocytes.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a composition for the prevention and treatment of obesity and metabolic syndrome, which contains a complex extract of Evodiamine Fructus , Cerrus Unshiu Markovich and White Hair Root (Imperatae Rhizoma) as an active ingredient.

In addition, the present invention has another object to provide a health food containing the complex extract.

(1) A 10-fold weight of 70% aqueous ethanol solution was mixed with 1 Kg of dried sewage, white hair root and skin skin, which were previously screened and cut into appropriate sizes, and then heated and subjected to primary extraction at 85 ° C. for 6 hours. Thereafter, the primary filtrate was collected separately by filtration, and the filtered crude drug was further mixed with an aqueous 10% weight 70% ethanol aqueous solution, followed by heating to carry out secondary extraction at 85 ° C. for 6 hours. Subsequently, the resultant was filtered to obtain a secondary filtrate, followed by rapid freezing with the primary filtrate at 70 ° C. for 12 hours, vacuum drying for at least 36 hours under a pressure of 0.23 Torr or less, and then grinding to obtain respective dry powders.

The obtained sewage oil, white hair root and dermis extract powder was mixed with 1 part by weight of white hair root extract and 3 parts by weight of dermis extract based on 1 part by weight of sewage extract to obtain a composite extract powder of the present invention.

(2) The extraction efficiency of each herbal medicine was analyzed beforehand, and then each dry herbal medicine was mixed in the final extract. That is, dry sewage oil, white hair root and green skin, which were previously screened and cut to an appropriate size, were mixed, a 10-fold weight of 70% ethanol aqueous solution was poured, and heated to carry out primary extraction at 85 ° C. for 6 hours. Thereafter, the primary filtrate was collected separately by filtration, and the filtered crude drug was further mixed with an aqueous 10% weight 70% ethanol aqueous solution, followed by heating to carry out secondary extraction at 85 ° C. for 6 hours. Subsequently, the resultant was filtered to obtain a secondary filtrate, followed by rapid freezing with the primary filtrate at 70 ° C. for 12 hours, vacuum drying for at least 36 hours under a pressure of 0.23 Torr or less, and then grinding to obtain respective dry powders.

(3) As a result of analysis of various indicator components and in vitro and in vivo experiments, the herbal compositions according to the present invention prepared by the above two methods were identified as the same. Therefore, in the following experiment, the thing by two methods was used for an Example without distinguishing.

Example 1 Determination of AMPK Enzyme Activity of Complex Extracts

The cells were treated with a natural product extraction mixture and then AMPK activity was examined over time. The activation of the AMPK enzyme increases glucose uptake, inhibits fatty acid synthesis, and induces fatty acid oxidation, so this experiment can confirm the prophylaxis or treatment of obesity and metabolic syndrome of the complex extract of the present invention.

As can be seen in Figure 1, in the composite extract of the present invention can be seen to significantly increase the AMPK enzyme expression compared to the positive control AICAR.

Example 2 Screening of the Effects of Complex Extracts on Weight Gain in Animal Models and Their Effects on Fat Accumulation and Plasma Fat and Sugar

(1) Experimental animals purchased 20 to 25 g of 6-week-old C57BL / 6 mice from the central laboratory animals, and allowed them to freely feed and water in the animal room, and after one week, divided them into four groups as follows. Regular Diet (RD) and 45% High Fat Diet (HFD). Six weeks later, the mice were separated by weight, and 5 mice were placed in cages so that an average of 36 to 37 g of HFD was put into two cages (10 mice). The average diet weight was 27 g. High-fat diet mice were orally administered with the complex extract of the present invention for 10 weeks every day to observe the weight change and intake of the mice.

RD: normal diet control diet fed a normal diet, HFD: high fat diet control group fed 45% high fat diet, HFD + complex extract: high fat diet + complex extract (500 mg / kg), HFD + sibutramine: high fat diet Used as a positive control with this + sibutramine (2 mg / kg).

(2) To determine the therapeutic effect of metabolic syndrome (medibolic syndrome) for 6 weeks in a high fat diet mouse fat (diet induced obesity) in the mouse (diet induced obesity) of the complex extract of the present invention at a constant time of 500 mg / kg daily Was administered orally with high fat diet for 10 weeks. Body weights were measured twice a week and food intake was measured once every two days. Ten weeks later, blood was collected from the eyeballs of the mice, and the blood was collected, each tissue of the mouse was extracted, weighed, and used in the assay.

(3) Sampling and Blood Indicator Analysis

At the last sacrifice, blood was collected from the orbital vein, and each tissue was extracted and weighed for analysis. For blood index analysis, blood collection was performed using plasma after centrifugation of whole blood obtained from the orbital vein for 30 minutes at 1,500 rpm after fasting on the previous day (8-10 hours), and astaxet triglycerides, glucose and cholesterol. (cholesterol) kits were purchased and measured with an ELISA reader.

(4) experimental results

① weight change

Figure 2 is the result of comparing the weight change pattern between each group for 10 weeks. As shown in FIG. 2, when the sample was administered after inducing obesity for 6 weeks with a high fat diet, the body weight of the mice was temporarily decreased until 2 weeks. This may be due to the stress of the mouse by oral administration. Body weight gained again from 3 weeks, and significantly increased weight suppression effect in group administered 500 mg / kg of complex extract at 5 weeks compared with control group. This effect lasted up to 10 weeks. Compared with the groups at 10 weeks, the body weight of the high-fat diet group (HFD) increased to 46.5 ± 1.5 compared to the normal diet group (RD, 29.5 ± 1.2), whereas the complex extract group was 41.3 at the 500 mg / kg dose, respectively. ± 1.7. Meanwhile, the weight of the sibutramine-treated group, which was a positive control group, was 43.3 ± 1.7, which was lower than that of the high-fat diet. As a result of the present experiment, the complex extract of the present invention was found to have better activity in weight inhibition than the positive control group.

② Organization weight analysis

In Table 1, 10 weeks after the abdominal fat (liver), liver (liver), kidney (kidney), spleen (spleen), brain (brain), muscles (hind muscles), etc. tissues were extracted to double fat, liver This is a result of measuring the weight of the kidney, height and spleen.

Compared to the normal diet (RD), the high fat diet (HFD) significantly increased abdominal fat, significantly increased liver and kidney weights, and the weight of other organs was not significantly changed. In the case of adipose tissue, the high-fat diet group was 4.5 ± 0.5, whereas the administration of the composition showed 3.2 ± 0.4 of abdominal fat reduction, on average, about 30%.

③ blood analysis

Table 2 shows the plasma concentrations of the mice obtained from the orbital vein after oral administration of the composition for 10 weeks to diet-induced obesity, followed by fasting overnight (8 hours) to collect plasma, triglycerides and blood glucose. And cholesterol. In the case of triglycerides, the high-fat diet control group (HFD) increased 142.8 ± 11.4 mg / dL compared to the general diet group (RD), whereas the composition-administered group was 123.4 ㅁ 12.2 at the 500 mg / kg dose. It showed a neutral lipid reduction effect. In the case of blood glucose, the high-fat diet control group (HFD) was 255.6 ± 30.1 mg / dL, which was significantly increased compared to the general diet group (RD), whereas the composition-administered group showed 204.1 ± 14.5 mg / dL at 500 mg / kg dose. Compared with the control group, the blood glucose reduction effect was shown. In the case of triglyceride and blood glucose, the high fat diet was more effective than the control group, but the cholesterol was less correlated with the body weight.

As a result, it was confirmed that the herbal composition according to the present invention can be usefully used for the reduction of neutral lipid and blood glucose levels as well as the weight loss effect.

Example 3 Investigation of Glucose Absorption Capacity in Myofas and Adipocytes of the Complex Extract
