Abstract
Disclosed are a combination of active components inducing synergistic effects of multi-targeting and a use thereof. More particularly, disclosed are a functional food composition, a cosmetic composition, a pain-suppressive composition, and a composition for treatment or prevention of pruritus or atopic dermatitis, which comprise as active components, two or more components selected from a group consisting of (a) a 5-hydroxytryptamine subtype 2 (5-HT2) receptor antagonist; (b) a P2X receptor antagonist; and (c) any one of a glycine receptor agonist, a glycine transporter (GlyT) antagonist, a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor agonist, and a GABA transporter 1 (GAT1) antagonist.
Claims4
A method for suppressing pain, comprising administering to a subject a composition comprising, as active components,
- (i) (a) a 5-hydroxytryptamine subtype 2 (5-HT2) receptor antagonist;
- and
- (ii) (b) a P2X receptor antagonist, (c) a glycine receptor agonist or a glycine transporter (GlyT) antagonist, or a mixture of (b) and (c),
- wherein (a) the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist is selected from the group consisting of MDL 11,939, mangosteen extract, and Polygala tenuifolia extract;
- (b) the P2X receptor antagonist is selected from the group consisting of Palmijiwhang Pills, and an extract of Corni fructus and Alisma orientate (Sam.) Juz;
- and
- (c) the glycine receptor agonist is glycine and the GlyT antagonist is ORG-25543;
- wherein the Palmijiwhang Pills are composed of extracts from the following eight herbs:
- Rehmannia glutinosa, Cornus officinalis, Dioscorea batatas, Alisma orientale, Poria cocos, Paeonia suffruticosa, Cinnamomum cassia, and Aconitum carmichaeli;
- and
- wherein when MDL 11,939 is the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist, MDL 11,939 is administered in an amount of from about 0.32 mg/kg to about 0.8 mg/kg;
- wherein when the mangosteen extract is the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist, the mangosteen extract is administered in an amount of from about 168 mg/kg to about 336 mg/kg;
- wherein when the Polygala tenuifolia extract is the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist, the Polygala tenuifolia extract is administered in an amount of about 118.4 mg/kg;
- wherein when the Palmijiwhang Pills are the P2X receptor antagonist, the Palmijiwhang Pills are administered in an amount of from about 240 mg/kg to about 960 mg/kg;
- wherein when the extract of Corni fructus and Alisma orientate (Sam.) Juz is the P2X receptor antagonist, the extract of Corni fructus and Alisma orientate (Sam.) Juz is administered in an amount of about 4.32 mg/kg of Corni fructus and of about 4.32 mg/kg of Alisma orientate (Sam.) Juz;
- wherein when glycine is the glycine receptor agonist, glycine is administered in an amount of about 320 mg/kg;
- and
- wherein when ORG-25543 is the GlyT antagonist, ORG-25543 is administered in an amount of from about 1.6 mg/kg to about 3.2 mg/kg.
