Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to new compositions of matter for use in treating wrinkling of the human skin. The compositions comprise, as an essential ingredient therein, at least one N-acylate, by butyric acid, of an alpha-amino acid or a salt of said acylate with an inorganic, organic or biologic base or with a metal.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate selected from the group consisting of butyrylglycine, butyryl phenylalanine, butyrylthreonine, butyrylaspartic acid, butyrylvaline, butyryl leucine, dibutyryl lysine, butyrylproline, mono and dibutyryl hydroxyproline, dibutyrylhydroxylysine, butyryl methionine, dibutyryl cystine, butyrylcysteine, butyrylcollagenic acid, butyrylkeratinic acid and butyrylcaseinic acid, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 80 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate selected from the group consisting of butyrylglycine, butyryl phenylalanine, butyrylthreonine, butyrylaspartic acid, butyrylvaline, butyryl leucine, dibutyryl lysine, butyrylproline, mono and dibutyryl hydroxyproline, dibutyrylhydroxylysine, butyryl methionine, dibutyryl cystine, butyrylcysteine, butyrylcollagenic acid, butyrylkeratinic acid and butyrylcaseinic acid, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said active ingredient is present in an amount from 0.1% to 10% by weight.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 64 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate, said N-acylate being formed by butyric acid acylation of at least one alpha-aminoacid or a salt of said N-acylate, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 64 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate, said N-acylate being formed by butyric acid acylation of at least one alpha-aminoacid or a salt of said N-acylate, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 3 wherein said active ingredient is present in an amount from 0.1% to 10% by weight.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 3 wherein said active ingredient in said composition is butyrylhydroxyproline.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the active ingredient is present in the amount of about 1% by weight of the composition and the composition is topically administered to the area to be treated once every two days.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 68 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate being the result of the butyric acid acylation of a mixture of alpha-aminoacids obtained by the complete hydrolysis of one or more proteins, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 68 words
A method of treating wrinkles of the human skin, said method comprising the topical administration of a composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one N-acylate being the result of the butyric acid acylation of a mixture of alpha-aminoacids obtained by the complete hydrolysis of one or more proteins, said composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an amount of said active ingredient effective to treat wrinkles.
