La médiatisation de notre Société, par le biais de la publicité, du cinéma et de la télévision, impose de plus en plus une image exacerbée de la jeunesse corporelle, et de ses caractéristiques morphologiques, qui devient une sorte d'idéal dont tout un chacun essaye de se rapprocher.The media coverage of our society, through advertising, film and television, increasingly imposes an exacerbated image of bodily youth, and its morphological characteristics, which becomes a kind of ideal, each and everyone try to get closer.

La chevelure, composante importante de cette image, fait partie des caractéristiques physiques que tout individu expose au regard des autres. En effet, à tout âge, l'aspect idéal de la chevelure peut être altéré par de nombreux dysfonctionnements physiologiques ou pathologiques. L'exemple le plus connu en est la perte progressive et/ou locale de cheveux dont la calvitie est l'ultime étape. Les hommes étant préférentiellement touchés par la calvitie à tout âge, le rôle des hormones androgènes a été très rapidement suspecté et démontré (par exemple Jahoda C.A. (1998) Exp. Dermatol.l:235-248) et confirmé par la perte de cheveux observée chez les femmes après la ménopause et son cortège de dérèglements hormonaux (par exemple Rubin M.B. et al. (1997) Postgrad. - -.102.-129-131). Depuis, un nombre important de dysfonctionnements physiologiques ou pathologiques ont été identifiés: stress psychologiques aussi bien chez la femme que chez l'homme (par exemple: Cash T.F. (1993) J Am. Acad. Dermatol.29:568-Hair, an important component of this image, is one of the physical characteristics that any individual exhibits in the eyes of others. Indeed, at any age, the ideal appearance of the hair can be altered by many physiological or pathological dysfunctions. The best known example is the gradual and / or local loss of hair, of which baldness is the last step. Men being preferentially affected by baldness at any age, the role of androgen hormones was very quickly suspected and demonstrated (for example Jahoda CA (1998) Exp. Dermatol.l: 235-248) and confirmed by the observed hair loss. in women after menopause and its procession of hormonal disturbances (for example Rubin MB et al. (1997) Postgrad. - -.102.-129-131). Since then, a significant number of physiological or pathological dysfunctions have been identified: psychological stress in both women and men (for example: Cash T.F. (1993) J Am. Acad. Dermatol. 29: 568-

575); conséquences d'actes médicaux banals (par exemple Wise R.P. et al. (1997) J.A.M.A.219: 117-118); facteurs génétiques liés, ou non, à d'autres pathologies spécifiques comme les risques d'infarctus (par exemple Herrera C.R. et al. (1995) Am. J. Epidemiol. l42 828.833) ou de cancer de la prostate (par exemple: Pan HJ. et al. (1998) Endocrine9:39-43).575); consequences of trivial medical acts (e.g. Wise R.P. et al. (1997) J.A.M.A.219: 117-118); genetic factors linked, or not, to other specific pathologies such as the risks of infarction (for example Herrera CR et al. (1995) Am. J. Epidemiol. l42 828.833) or of prostate cancer (for example: Pan HJ. Et al. (1998) Endocrine9: 39-43).

Par ailleurs, la chimiothérapie est bien connue pour provoquer des alopécies rapides et totales par le biais d'un mécanisme, maintenant identifié, qui aboutit à une accélération de l'apoptose du follicule pileux (par exemple Cece R. et al. (1996) Lab. Invest.75:601-609). A ce jour, pour corriger l'aspect de l'alopécie, de nombreuses solutions ont été utilisées: application locale d'extraits végétaux ou minéraux de toute sorte, traitement hormonal par voie topique ou générale, prothèse et autres postiches ou perruques, implants, autogreffes.Furthermore, chemotherapy is well known to cause rapid and total alopecia through a mechanism, now identified, which results in an acceleration of apoptosis of the hair follicle (for example Cece R. et al. (1996) Invest. Lab 75: 601-609). To date, to correct the appearance of alopecia, many solutions have been used: local application of plant or mineral extracts of all kinds, hormonal treatment by topical or general route, prosthesis and other hairpieces or wigs, implants, autografts.

Récemment, un type de traitement pharmacologique est apparu avec une nouvelle classe de molécules: les activateurs des canaux potassiques qui, à l'origine, étaient destinés aux traitements de problèmes cardio-vasculaires et non capillaires (par exemple Buhl A.E. (1993) J Invest. E>erwαto/.101:148S-152S).Recently, a type of pharmacological treatment has appeared with a new class of molecules: potassium channel activators which, originally, were intended for the treatment of cardiovascular and non-capillary problems (for example Buhl AE (1993) J Invest . E> erwαto / .101: 148S-152S).

L'industrie cosmétique est donc tout à fait dans son rôle quand elle recherche en permanence de nouveaux concepts et produits capables de prévenir, réduire ou supprimer la chute des cheveux ou de favoriser leur repousse. L'objet de cette demande de brevet réside dans la découverte, et dans la démonstration, qu'une nouvelle approche du problème de régulation de la perte des cheveux et de leur repousse peut être proposée.The cosmetic industry is therefore completely in its role when it is constantly looking for new concepts and products capable of preventing, reducing or eliminating hair loss or promoting their regrowth. The object of this patent application lies in the discovery, and in the demonstration, that a new approach to the problem of regulating hair loss and regrowth can be proposed.

Pour comprendre l'intérêt de notre découverte, quelques rappels succincts du mécanisme et la physiologie de la formation du cheveu (dans Dermatologie, Collection Consultation, Dr Michel Jossey, M. A. Editions Paris, 1993:107-114) sont donnés ci-après.To understand the interest of our discovery, some brief reminders of the mechanism and physiology of hair formation (in Dermatology, Collection Consultation, Dr. Michel Jossey, MA Editions Paris, 1993: 107-114) are given below.

Le cheveu se compose d'une racine et d'une tige.The hair consists of a root and a stem.

La première est formée de plusieurs couches de kératine et son extrémité inférieure se renfle en forme de bulbe, encapuchonnant ainsi la papille, riche en vaisseaux sanguins et en terminaisons nerveuses. La racine, ou follicule pileux, est ancrée dans le maillage du tissu cutané constitué par différents types de collagènes: les types I, II, II V et XI, formes fibrillaires, comblent les espaces vides alors que le type IV forme les réseau en feuillet de la lame basale et que le type VII constitue les fibrilles d'ancrage des épithéliums squameux stratifiés (par exemple Albert B et al., Biologie Moléculaire de la cellule, 3ème éd., Médecine Science, Flammarion éd.,The first is formed by several layers of keratin and its lower end swells in the shape of a bulb, thus encapsulating the papilla, rich in blood vessels and nerve endings. The root, or hair follicle, is anchored in the mesh of the skin tissue formed by different types of collagens: types I, II, II V and XI, fibrillar forms, fill in the empty spaces while type IV forms the lattice networks. the basal lamina and the type VII is the anchoring fibrils of the stratified squamous epithelia (eg Albert B et al., Molecular Biology of the cell, 3rd ed., Science, Medicine, Flammarion ed.

Paris, 1997:979-980).Paris, 1997: 979-980).

La tige, ou partie libre du cheveu est constituée de kératine et peut être comparée à un ongle (phanère).The stem, or free part of the hair is made of keratin and can be compared to a nail (dander).

A la naissance, nous possédons environ 100.000 follicules pilo-sébacés et comme il ne peut en apparaître d'autres au cours de la vie, il est naturel que ce nombre diminue avec l'âge. A l'exception du caniche et du mouton mérinos, les poils des mammifères évoluent cycliquement. Chez l'Homme, chaque follicule évolue indépendamment de son voisin selon trois grands phases:At birth, we have around 100,000 pilosebaceous follicles and as there cannot be others during life, it is natural that this number decreases with age. With the exception of the poodle and the merino sheep, the hairs of mammals evolve cyclically. In humans, each follicle evolves independently of its neighbor according to three main phases:

• Anagène, ou phase de croissance, qui dure environ deux ans et qui concerne, à un moment donné, environ 75 % du cuir chevelu. Le cheveu anagène a une tige foncée, de grande taille, à l'extrémité proximale rectiligne et au bulbe pigmenté.• Anagen, or growth phase, which lasts about two years and which affects, at a given time, about 75% of the scalp. The anagen hair has a large dark stem with a straight proximal end and a pigmented bulb.

• Catagène qui dure environ 2 semaines et touche 5 % des cheveux. Elle correspond à l'arrêt des divisions cellulaires. Le cheveu, de couleur légèrement foncé, présente alors une extrémité proximale arrondie en massue. • Télogène qui dure de 3 à 4 mois et concerne environ 20 % des cheveux. C'est une phase de repos et de mort qui entraîne obligatoirement la chute du cheveu. Après ce cycle, le cheveu tombé est remplacé par un autre, à la condition que le follicule soit resté actif et donc, qu'il soit maintenu dans un contexte tissulaire et physiologique normal ou pour le moins satisfaisant. Pour cela, il est au moins deux conditions essentielles qui paraissent évidentes:• Catagen which lasts about 2 weeks and affects 5% of the hair. It corresponds to the stopping of cell divisions. The hair, slightly dark in color, then has a rounded club-shaped proximal end. • Telogen which lasts 3 to 4 months and affects around 20% of the hair. It is a phase of rest and death which necessarily leads to the fall of the hair. After this cycle, the fallen hair is replaced by another, on the condition that the follicle has remained active and therefore, that it is maintained in a normal or at least satisfactory tissue and physiological context. For this, there are at least two essential conditions which seem obvious:

• le follicule pileux doit baigner dans un environnement riche en vaisseaux sanguins pour être alimenté correctement et donc, recevoir les nutriments dont il a besoin et éliminer les catabolites produits par son métabolisme,• the hair follicle must bathe in an environment rich in blood vessels to be nourished properly and therefore, receive the nutrients it needs and eliminate the catabolites produced by its metabolism,

• le follicule pileux doit être bien ancré dans le tissu cutané grâce à une maillage efficace établi par des molécules de constitution telles les collagènes, notamment ceux des types I, II, III et IV (par exemple Almond-Roesler N. et al.• the hair follicle must be well anchored in the skin tissue thanks to an effective mesh established by molecules of constitution such as collagens, in particular those of types I, II, III and IV (for example Almond-Roesler N. et al.

(1997) Arch. Derm Res. 289:698-704). L'objet de cette demande de brevet réside dans la découverte, et dans la démonstration, que les conditions optimales pour maintenir le follicule pileux du cheveu dans un milieu favorable à sa survie étaient obtenues par l'utilisation topique de notre nouvelle molécule, le N-Biotinyl-Glycine-Histidine-Lysine (ou N- Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys ou encore le N-Biotinyl-G-H-K).(1997) Arch. Derm Res. 289: 698-704). The object of this patent application lies in the discovery, and in the demonstration, that the optimal conditions for maintaining the hair follicle of the hair in an environment favorable to its survival were obtained by the topical use of our new molecule, N -Biotinyl-Glycine-Histidine-Lysine (or N- Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys or even N-Biotinyl-GHK).

Ce N-Biotinyl-G-H-K est obtenu par le greffage d'une molécule de biotine sur la partie N-terminale du tripeptide Gly-His-Lys, créant ainsi une nouvelle molécule. De manière surprenante, et faisant partie intégrante de notre demande de brevet comme activité inventive, nous avons découvert que l'effet contre la chute des cheveux et favorable sur leur repousse avec notre nouveau produit obtenu par greffage de la biotine sur le tripeptide Gly-His-Lys, est largement supérieur à celui que l'on pouvait espérer par la simple additivité des effets connus pour le seul G-H-This N-Biotinyl-GHK is obtained by grafting a biotin molecule on the N-terminal part of the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys, thus creating a new molecule. Surprisingly, and being an integral part of our patent application as an inventive step, we discovered that the effect against hair loss and favorable on their regrowth with our new product obtained by grafting biotin on the tripeptide Gly-His -Lys, is much superior to that which one could hope for by the simple additivity of the known effects for the only GH-

K et pour la seule biotine, mais que l'on avait ainsi créé une très forte synergie imprévisible même par rhomme de l'art.K and for biotin alone, but which had thus created a very strong unpredictable synergy even by one skilled in the art.

Un intérêt supplémentaire apporté par le greffage d'une Biotine sur le tripeptide Gly-His-Lys réside dans une meilleure pénétration cutanée du produit vers le follicule pileux et dans une meilleure stabilité du produit après son incorporation dans la grande diversité galénique de produit final auquel il est destiné.

Biotine - Résumé des connaissances (littérature - brevets)Biotin - Summary of knowledge (literature - patents)

La biotine est une vitamine du groupe B, appelée également vitamine H ou Bios II, qui a été isolée par Kôgl F. et Tonnis B. en 1936 à partir du jaune d'oeuf.Biotin is a group B vitamin, also called vitamin H or Bios II, which was isolated by Kôgl F. and Tonnis B. in 1936 from egg yolk.

Elle stimule directement la différentiation des kératinocytes et doit être apportée par l'alimentation car l'organisme humain ne peut la synthétiser. La carence en biotine se traduit chez l'animal et chez l'Homme, par des symptômes comme: alopécie, dermatite, anémie, hypercholestérolémie et troubles de l'appareil reproducteur. Les utilisations de la biotine peuvent être regroupées en deux groupes: applications médicales et comme co-réactif (avec l'avidine) dans des réactions de type ELISA qui servent à mesurer différents constituants biochimiques.It directly stimulates the differentiation of keratinocytes and must be provided by food because the human body cannot synthesize it. Biotin deficiency is manifested in animals and humans, by symptoms such as: alopecia, dermatitis, anemia, hypercholesterolemia and disorders of the reproductive system. The uses of biotin can be grouped into two groups: medical applications and as a co-reagent (with avidin) in ELISA type reactions which are used to measure different biochemical constituents.

Parmi les applications médicales de la Biotine, on peut citer parmi d'autres très nombreux exemples:Among the medical applications of Biotin, one can cite among many other examples:

• Comme constituant d'un mélange à utiliser dans l'alopécie et dans l'activation de la pousse des cheveux ou l'entretien des phanères, composé d'autres produits comme un extrait végétal (par exemple brevet WO9713492 ou US5750107) ou animal (par exemple US5827510), • Comme ajout dans la ration de personnes présentant des symptômes de retard mental, de comas d'acidose cétonique, de Candidoses chronique et d'alopécie (par exemple Munnich et al. (1980) Ann. Med. Interne - Paris 131:435-437,• As a constituent of a mixture to be used in alopecia and in the activation of hair growth or the maintenance of integuments, composed of other products such as a plant extract (for example patent WO9713492 or US5750107) or animal ( for example US5827510), • As an addition to the ration of people with symptoms of mental retardation, comas of ketotic acidosis, chronic candidiasis and alopecia (for example Munnich et al. (1980) Ann. Med. Internal - Paris 131: 435-437,

• Comme traitement oral du syndrome de Dupré, dit du cheveu incoiffable (par exemple Shelley W.B. et al. J Am. Acad. Dermatol. 13:97-102. Parmi les méthodes diagnostiques, on peut citer les kits commerciaux de différentes marques comme Boërhinger, Sigma ...., ainsi que des applications plus ponctuelles (Bettens F. et al. (1991) Ewr. J. Clin. Chem. Clin. Biochem. 29:685-688; Chevrier D. et al. (1995), FEMS Immunol. Med. Microbiol. 10:245-501; (Chomel J.J. et al., J. Virol. Method 68:97-104). Tous ces documents font référence soit à des domaines très éloignés du problème posé et résolu dans cette demande de brevet, soit à des solutions différentes puisque si la biotine est mentionnée pour le même type de problème, elle fait partie d'une association de produits dont on ne peut préciser pour chacun l'exacte contribution vis-à-vis de l'activité finale revendiquée. L'objet de notre découverte est donc que nous avons réuni trois caractéristiques dans la seule et unique nouvelle molécule N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys:• As an oral treatment for Dupré syndrome, known as hair straightening (for example Shelley WB et al. J Am. Acad. Dermatol. 13: 97-102. Among the diagnostic methods, we can cite commercial kits of different brands such as Boërhinger , Sigma ...., as well as more specific applications (Bettens F. et al. (1991) Ewr. J. Clin. Chem. Clin. Biochem. 29: 685-688; Chevrier D. et al. (1995) , FEMS Immunol. Med. Microbiol. 10: 245-501; (Chomel JJ et al., J. Virol. Method 68: 97-104). All these documents refer either to domains very far from the problem posed and resolved in this patent application, that is to say to different solutions since if biotin is mentioned for the same type of problem, it is part of an association of products the exact contribution of which cannot be specified for each final activity claimed. The object of our discovery is therefore that we have brought together three characteristics in the one and only that new N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys molecule:

• l'action propre du tripeptide sur: la néoformation de vaisseaux sanguins ou sur le maintien du follicule pileux dans un contexte très bien vascularisé pour lui assurer un métabolisme performant et donc un fonctionnement correct assurant la survie ou la repousse du poil,• the tripeptide's own action on: the neoformation of blood vessels or on the maintenance of the hair follicle in a very well vascularized context to ensure its metabolism efficient and therefore correct functioning ensuring the survival or regrowth of the hair,

> la synthèse d'un collagène de qualité assurant un ancrage correct du follicule pileux dans la matrice cutanée, • l'action propre de la Biotine sur l'apport en vitamine et cofacteur enzymatique à l'endroit même de son utilisation et où sa carence se traduit macroscopiquement par la perte et/ou par l'absence de repousse des cheveux, • le greffage de ces deux molécules en une seule qui,> the synthesis of a quality collagen ensuring a correct anchoring of the hair follicle in the cutaneous matrix, • the proper action of Biotin on the supply of vitamin and enzymatic cofactor at the very place of its use and where its deficiency macroscopically results in the loss and / or lack of hair regrowth, • the grafting of these two molecules into one which,

> améliore l'ancrage du follicule pileux grâce à l'augmentation de la synthèse de collagène, augmente la stabilité de ces deux molécules dans le produit final, augmente la biodisponibilité dans l'environnement ciblé qu'est le follicule pileux,> improves the anchoring of the hair follicle thanks to the increase in collagen synthesis, increases the stability of these two molecules in the final product, increases the bioavailability in the targeted environment that is the hair follicle,

> simplifie le travail de l'homme de l'art en formulation galénique car il n'a plus qu'une seule molécule à incorporer dans une composition complexe au lieu de deux ainsi que par la grande stabilité du Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys,> simplifies the work of a person skilled in the art in galenical formulation because it has only one molecule to incorporate in a complex composition instead of two as well as by the great stability of Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys ,

> crée une synergie évidente par rapport aux activités propres constatées pour la Biotine et pour le tripeptide Gly-His-Lys lorsqu'il sont utilisés soit seul soit en association entre eux. Le N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, objet de cette demande de brevet, peut être obtenu soit par synthèse chimique classique (en phase hétérogène ou en phase homogène), soit par synthèse enzymatique (Kullman et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1980, 255, 8234) à partir des acides aminés constitutifs ou de leurs dérivés, puis par le greffage sur la partie N-terminale de la Glycine du tripeptide Gly-His-Lys par une molécule de Biotine. La petite taille du tripeptide Gly-His-Lys permet d'en faire la synthèse industrielle, à un coût avantageux et son greffage avec la Biotine représente un faible surcoût par rapport à la synergie ainsi créée. Sa grande activité démontrée en autorise l'utilisation commerciale dans un grand nombre de produits cosmétiques ou dermopharmaceutiques financièrement acceptables. Le tripeptide Gly-His-Lys peut être obtenu également par fermentation d'une souche de bactéries, modifiées ou non par génie génétique, pour produire les séquences recherchées ou leurs différents fragments.> creates an obvious synergy in relation to the specific activities observed for Biotin and for the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys when used either alone or in combination with one another. The N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, the subject of this patent application, can be obtained either by conventional chemical synthesis (in heterogeneous phase or in homogeneous phase), or by enzymatic synthesis (Kullman et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1980, 255, 8234) from the constituent amino acids or their derivatives, then by grafting on the N-terminal part of the Glycine of the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys with a molecule of Biotin. The small size of the Gly-His-Lys tripeptide allows its industrial synthesis, at an advantageous cost and its grafting with Biotin represents a low additional cost compared to the synergy thus created. Its large demonstrated activity authorizes commercial use in a large number of financially acceptable cosmetic or dermopharmaceutical products. The tripeptide Gly-His-Lys can also be obtained by fermentation of a strain of bacteria, modified or not by genetic engineering, to produce the desired sequences or their different fragments.

Le tripeptide Gly-His-Lys peut être obtenu par extraction de protéines d'origine animale ou végétale, préférentiellement végétale, susceptibles de contenir ces séquences au sein de leur structure, suivie d'une hydrolyse contrôlée, enzymatique ou non, qui libère le fragment peptidique de séquence Gly-His-Lys dans les plantes qui sont susceptibles de contenir ces séquences au sein de leur structure. L'hydrolyse ménagée permet de dégager ces fragments peptidiques. A partir de ce tripeptide obtenu selon un quelconque procédé mentionné ci-dessus, il est facile pour l'homme de l'art de réaliser le produit de l'invention en greffant, par n'importe quel procédé, une molécule de biotine sur la partie N-terminale de la glycine du tripeptide. Sans être exhaustifs, à titre d'exemple, nous indiquons, ci- après deux possibilités. L'accrochage de la biotine sur les fonctions aminés d'un peptide se fait par réaction d'esters activés de la biotine (par exemple : ester de paranitrophenyl ou ester de N- hydroxy-succinimide), ou par tout autre forme d'activation de la biotine (EtOCOCl, DCC, TBTU, BOP, ...). La réaction est alors suivie d'une purification par les méthodes classiques de la chimie des peptides, par exemple la cristallisation, la chromatographie.The tripeptide Gly-His-Lys can be obtained by extraction of proteins of animal or vegetable origin, preferably vegetable, capable of containing these sequences within their structure, followed by a controlled hydrolysis, enzymatic or not, which releases the fragment peptide of sequence Gly-His-Lys in plants which are likely to contain these sequences within their structure. The controlled hydrolysis makes it possible to release these peptide fragments. From this tripeptide obtained according to any process mentioned above, it is easy for a person skilled in the art to produce the product of the invention by grafting, by any process, a biotin molecule onto the N-terminal part of the glycine of the tripeptide. Without being exhaustive, by way of example, we indicate below two possibilities. Biotin is attached to the amino functions of a peptide by reacting activated esters of biotin (for example: paranitrophenyl ester or N-hydroxy-succinimide ester), or by any other form of activation. biotin (EtOCOCl, DCC, TBTU, BOP, ...). The reaction is then followed by purification by the conventional methods of peptide chemistry, for example crystallization, chromatography.

L'accrochage peut également se faire directement pendant la synthèse en phase solide du peptide (Lobl et al : Anal. Biochem. , 1988, 170, pl055-1060). Dans ce cas, on utilise un excès de réactif et augmente le temps de couplage pour compenser la faible réactivité. La dernière étape de clivage du peptide n'est pas modifiée du fait de la présence de la biotine sur le peptide.The attachment can also be done directly during the solid phase synthesis of the peptide (Lobl et al: Anal. Biochem., 1988, 170, pl055-1060). In this case, an excess of reagent is used and the coupling time is increased to compensate for the low reactivity. The last step of cleavage of the peptide is not modified due to the presence of biotin on the peptide.

Dans les deux cas, en raison de la faible solubilité da la biotine dans les solvants organiques classiques, la réaction doit se faire dans le diméthylformarnide (DMF). Enfin, il est également possible, sans perdre l'activité revendiquée dans ce brevet, d'estérifier le groupe carboxyle du N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys pour en augmenter la stabilité et la disponibilité tissulaire par facilitation du passage de la barrière lipidique cutanée de ce type de structure essentiellement hydrophile. A titre d'exemple illustrant l'invention, on cite quelques formules cosmétiques représentatives mais non limitatives de l'invention: Exemple n° 1: GelIn both cases, due to the low solubility of biotin in conventional organic solvents, the reaction must be carried out in dimethylformarnide (DMF). Finally, it is also possible, without losing the activity claimed in this patent, to esterify the carboxyl group of N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys to increase its stability and tissue availability by facilitating the passage of the lipid barrier skin of this type of essentially hydrophilic structure. By way of example illustrating the invention, a few cosmetic formulas which are representative but not limiting of the invention are cited: Example No. 1: Gel

Les activités décrites au début de cette demande sont illustrées par les exemples suivants. Exemple n° 5: Augmentation de la synthèse de collagène: in vitroThe activities described at the beginning of this request are illustrated by the following examples. Example 5: Increase in collagen synthesis: in vitro

La méthode choisie est une variante de celle décrite par Augustin C. et al. (Skin Pharmacol. (1997) 10:63-70) en ce que nous avons utilisé des explants de peau humaine au lieu de fibroblastes pulmonaires humains, ceci afin de rendre nos résultats directement exploitables en cosmétologie. Ces explants, provenant de plastie mammaire, sont incubés, pendant 72 heures en présence de H-proline, avec le N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys sous trois concentrations finales dans le milieu de culture ( 1.10"4 %, 3.10"4 % et 1.10*3 %; soit 1 , 3 et 10 ppm). Les explants sont alors lavés, le derme et l'épidémie de chaque explant sont séparés, homogénéisés et lysés. La mesure de l'incorporation de 3H-proline est alors réalisée dans chaque lysat. Les essais sont faits en triplicate.The method chosen is a variant of that described by Augustin C. et al. (Skin Pharmacol. (1997) 10: 63-70) in that we used human skin explants instead of human pulmonary fibroblasts, in order to make our results directly usable in cosmetology. These explants, originating from breast plasty, are incubated, for 72 hours in the presence of H-proline, with N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys in three final concentrations in the culture medium (1.10 "4 %, 3.10 " 4 % and 1.10 * 3 %; i.e. 1, 3 and 10 ppm). The explants are then washed, the dermis and the epidemic of each explant are separated, homogenized and lysed. The measurement of the incorporation of 3 H-proline is then carried out in each lysate. The tests are carried out in triplicate.

Parallèlement des contrôles négatifs sont réalisés dans le mêmes conditions mais en l'absence du tripeptide. Des contrôles, positifs, quant à eux, sont réalisés en remplaçant le tripeptide testé par de la vitamine C. En présence de 1, 3 ou 10 ppm du N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, l'incorporation de 3H- proline qui traduit la synthèse de collagène, est augmentée de respectivement 12,5 ± 0,8 %, 36,3 ± 2,2 % et 65,1 ± 3,2 % p.ar rapport à ce qui est constaté dans les expériences témoins (sans le N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys).At the same time, negative controls are carried out under the same conditions but in the absence of the tripeptide. Positive controls, for their part, are carried out by replacing the tripeptide tested with vitamin C. In the presence of 1, 3 or 10 ppm of N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, the incorporation of 3 H-proline which translates the synthesis of collagen, is increased by 12.5 ± respectively 0.8%, 36.3 ± 2.2% and 65.1 ± 3.2% p.ar compared to what is observed in the control experiments (without the N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys).

Dans les mêmes conditions, le produit de référence, l'acide ascorbique, à la concentration de 0.5mM, augmente la synthèse du collagène de 37,4 (± 4,4) %. Enfin, et ceci est très important dans l'application capillaire car facilitant l'ancrage du follicule, une mesure complémentaire a été réalisée en utilisant un anticorps polyclonal anti-collagène IV (Rockland 600-401-106) et un conjugué anti- immunoglobulines de lapin-péroxydase (Tébu <L42007). S'il y a production, et donc, présence de collagène IV en fin d'incubation avec le N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, il y a formation d'un complexe dont l'activité péroxydasique peut être quantifiée sur film Kodak MP par la méthode ECL ("enhanced chimiluminescence", Amersham). Dans cette expérience complémentaire, en présence des concentrations de N- Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys testées précédemment (1, 3 et 10 ppm), la synthèse de collagène IV a été augmentée de respectivement 21, 29 et 37% par rapport aux expériences témoins, donc sans N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, augmentations comparables à celles obtenues avec la vitamine C dans les mêmes conditions. Exemple n° 6: Effet sur la chute et la repousse de cheveux: in vivo L'étude portant sur 15 volontaires de sexe masculin, âgés de 26 à 50 ans et présentant des problèmes capillaires, a commencé par la coupe des cheveux, très près de la peau, sur une zone de quelques centimètres carrés.Under the same conditions, the reference product, ascorbic acid, at a concentration of 0.5 mM, increases the synthesis of collagen by 37.4 (± 4.4)%. Finally, and this is very important in the capillary application because facilitating the anchoring of the follicle, a complementary measurement was carried out using a polyclonal anti-collagen IV antibody (Rockland 600-401-106) and an anti-immunoglobulin conjugate of rabbit peroxidase (Tébu <L42007). If there is production, and therefore, presence of collagen IV at the end of incubation with N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, there is formation of a complex whose peroxidase activity can be quantified on Kodak film MP by the ECL method ("enhanced chemiluminescence", Amersham). In this additional experiment, in the presence of the concentrations of N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys previously tested (1, 3 and 10 ppm), the synthesis of collagen IV was increased by 21, 29 and 37% respectively compared to the experiments controls, therefore without N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys, increases comparable to those obtained with vitamin C under the same conditions. Example No. 6: Effect on Hair Loss and Regrowth: In Vivo The study involving 15 male volunteers, aged 26 to 50 and having hair problems, started by cutting the hair very closely. of the skin, over an area of a few square centimeters.

Une microphotographie de la zone ainsi délimitée est alors réalisée.A microphotograph of the area thus delimited is then carried out.

Trois jours plus tard, une nouvelle macrophotographie de la même zone est prise sous le même angle.Three days later, a new macro photograph of the same area is taken from the same angle.

Pendant les onze semaines suivantes, à l'exclusion de tout produit cosmétique autre que leur shampooing habituel, les quinze volontaires ont utilisé quotidiennement une lotion contenant 10 ppm de N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys.During the following eleven weeks, to the exclusion of any cosmetic product other than their usual shampoo, the fifteen volunteers used daily a lotion containing 10 ppm of N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys.

A la fin de cette période, le même protocole que précédemment a été utilisé: coupe des cheveux, très près de la peau, sur une zone de quelques centimètres carrés suivie de la prise d'une microphotographie de la zone ainsi délimitée immédiatement et 3 jours après. Après analyse de ces images, comme une certaine repousse naturelle a eu lieu pendant cette période, il est possible de dénombrer la répartition des cheveux en groupes anagène, catagène et télogène. Comme les photos sont superposables, il est possible de distinguer les endroits où les cheveux ont poussé (anagène), où les cheveux n'ont pas subi de changement (catagène) et les endroits où les cheveux ont disparu (télogène).At the end of this period, the same protocol as above was used: haircut, very close to the skin, over an area of a few square centimeters followed by taking a photomicrograph of the area thus delimited immediately and 3 days after. After analyzing these images, as some natural regrowth took place during this period, it is possible to count the distribution of hair in anagen, catagen and telogen groups. As the photos are superimposable, it is possible to distinguish the places where the hair has grown (anagen), where the hair has not undergone any change (catagen) and the places where the hair has disappeared (telogen).

Le tableau suivant montre les pourcentages des cheveux présents dans les 3 phases (moyenne ± SEM) pour chaque groupe, avant et après onze semaines de traitement. Il est à noter, d'une part que les pourcentages obtenus avant le traitement correspondent aux fourchettes des valeurs trouvées dans la littérature, ce qui valide le panel choisi et la méthode de mesure et que, d'autre part cette amélioration a été constatée chez les 15 volontaires de l'étude.The following table shows the percentages of hair present in the 3 phases (average ± SEM) for each group, before and after eleven weeks of treatment. It should be noted, on the one hand, that the percentages obtained before treatment correspond to the ranges of values found in the literature, which validates the panel chosen and the measurement method, and that, on the other hand, this improvement was observed in the 15 study volunteers.

Ces résultats vont dans le sens d'une amélioration de la santé des cheveux puisque l'on observe une diminution des scores des deux phases de latence et de perte de cheveux (respectivement - 37 % et -78 % pour les groupes catagène et télogène) alors que la phase de repousse des cheveux augmente (groupe anagène: + 19 %). Le traitement informatique des microphotographies précédentes permet de mesurer deux autres paramètres significatifs: le volume capillaire apparent et la vitesse de repousse des cheveuxThese results point towards an improvement in the health of the hair since we observe a decrease in the scores of the two phases of latency and hair loss (respectively - 37% and -78% for the catagen and telogen groups) while the hair regrowth phase increases (anagen group: + 19%). The computer processing of the previous microphotographs makes it possible to measure two other significant parameters: the apparent capillary volume and the speed of hair regrowth.

Le tableau suivant montre les différences (Après traitement - Avant traitement) entre les variations observées pendant les 2 périodes de trois jours (unités arbitraires, moyenne ± SEM) sur ces deux paramètres: volume capillaire apparent et vitesse de la repousse des cheveux pour chaque groupe.The following table shows the differences (After treatment - Before treatment) between the variations observed during the 2 periods of three days (arbitrary units, average ± SEM) on these two parameters: apparent capillary volume and speed of hair regrowth for each group .

Après le traitement 7600 ± 634 9,9 ± 2,7 Ces résultats montrent clairement l'amélioration de la santé des cheveux puisque l'on observe une augmentation du volume apparent (+ 68,8%) et de la vitesse ce repousse des cheveux (+ 33,8 %).After treatment 7600 ± 634 9.9 ± 2.7 These results clearly show the improvement in hair health since there is an increase in the apparent volume (+ 68.8%) and in the speed of this regrowth of hair (+ 33.8%).

Les deux derniers exemples démontrent clairement l'efficacité in vitro et, plus important encore pour le problème posé ici, in vivo, du N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys sur l'ensemble des mécanismes qui entretiennent l'environnement du bulbe pileux dans les meilleurs conditions possibles et qui se traduit par l'amélioration de la qualité et de la quantité des cheveux. Sur la base des résultats montrés dans les exemples 5 et 6, l'effet bénéfique sur la synthèse de collagène de qualité et sur la tonicité cutanée autorise l'utilisation du N-The last two examples clearly demonstrate the efficacy in vitro and, more importantly for the problem posed here, in vivo, of N-Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys on all the mechanisms which maintain the environment of the hair bulb in the best possible conditions and that results in improving the quality and quantity of hair. On the basis of the results shown in Examples 5 and 6, the beneficial effect on the synthesis of quality collagen and on the skin tone allows the use of N-

Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys pour tous les soins de la peau en général comme, par exemple, lorsque l'on recherche un effet antirides, raffermissant, tonifiant, sans que cette liste soit limitative. Les mêmes tests ont été réalisés sur la Biotine seule ou sur le tripeptide Gly-His- Lys seul. Les résultats ne sont pas montré ici mais, l'examen des chiffres montre la présence d'une synergie importante créée par le greffage de la Biotine sur le tripeptide. Par exemple, dans le cas de l'exemple sur la synthèse de collagène, en présence de respectivement 5 ppm du tripeptide Gly-His-Lys ou de 5 ppm de Biotine (ce qui représente approximativement la contribution de chaque molécule dans 10 ppm de Biotinyl-G-H-K), les augmentations étaient de 18,2 ± 0,3% et 4,1Biotinyl-Gly-His-Lys for all skin care in general, for example when looking for an anti-wrinkle, firming and toning effect, without this list being exhaustive. The same tests were carried out on Biotin alone or on the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys alone. The results are not shown here but, examination of the figures shows the presence of a significant synergy created by the grafting of Biotin on the tripeptide. For example, in the case of the example on the synthesis of collagen, in the presence of respectively 5 ppm of the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys or 5 ppm of Biotin (which represents approximately the contribution of each molecule in 10 ppm of Biotinyl -GHK), increases were 18.2 ± 0.3% and 4.1

± 0,2 %. A partir de ces résultats, sur la base de l'additivité des effets, il était possible de s'attendre à une augmentation d'environ 22 % or, le résultat trouvé dans l'exemple N°3 est de 65,2 ± 3,2% soit environ 3 fois la valeur attendue, ce qui correspond bien à la création d'une forte synergie entre les effets propres des deux molécules par leur greffage chimique.± 0.2%. From these results, on the basis of the additivity of the effects, it was possible to expect an increase of approximately 22%, however, the result found in Example No. 3 is 65.2 ± 3 , 2% or about 3 times the expected value, which corresponds to the creation of a strong synergy between the specific effects of the two molecules by their chemical grafting.
