Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors

Reemerge as a Skin Wellness Target in Cosmetics

…Marc Cornell

Cosmetics continue their marvelous evolution with new scientific findings and breakthrough innovations Sometimes we need to look back to find the genesis of a current marketing or positioning trend. Take a step back with me to the late 20th century, where a young researcher was being educated in the biology of wound healing. During this time, I became aware of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) PPAR-alpha expression plays a role in the inflammatory stage of wound healing Later I lear ned wound healing shares many biologic pathways with anti-ageing biology PPARs is a mouthful, right?

Let’s dial it back bit and keep the PPAR focus on our body’s largest organ, the skin.

PPARs are ligand inducible transcription factors belonging to the nuclear hor mone receptor superfamily. The key isofor ms of PPARs are notated as alpha, beta/delta, and gamma. These for ms can up regulate or down regulate many cellular and metabolic processes such as cellular differentiation, proliferation, lipid homeostasis, and energy metabolism

These functions are critical to our body and its skin’s immune system, epider mal barrier function, and development of pro-inflammatory signals PPARs are also involved in regulating and modulating glucose levels, lipid homeostasis, and mitochondrial function 1 It is obvious that regulation of PPAR signaling to various biological systems is an opportunity for medicine and cosmetic science

In some studies, regulation of PPAR signaling has been linked to disease pathogenesis. These ailments have complex causes involving genetic, environmental, and nutritional factors PPARs are just a part of the pathway.2 In cosmetic science we are careful to draw the line between drug and cosmetic claims W ith that said, there are numerous scientific studies elucidating shared connections between drug and cosmetic active biologic modes of action

How can cosmetic science leverage PPARs to facilitate skin wellness? We start our PPAR discussion by looking at the skin barrier function This area of skin biology is also part of a recent trend towards minimizing environmental stressors on the exposome. The exposome is defined as the measure of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health PPAR activation has been shown to have an important role in skin barrier function by regulating differentiation and lipid synthesis in keratinocytes 3 This fact fits nicely into homeostasis wellness positioning

PPAR activation takes place through heterodimerization. Simply put, you need two ligands to come together on the DNA to initiate gene regulation PPAR activators are already being used in areas of cosmetic science Botanical extracts have been shown to activate PPARs in the stimulation of collagen in skin 4 There is also evidence that PPARs may be used as an alter native to retinoids in skin care 5 In addition, PPARs have an important effect in keratinocyte homeostasis, suggesting a role in diseases such as psoriasis 6 Further more, PPARs act directly to negatively regulate gene (continued on Page 4)

expression of proinflammatory genes in a ligand-dependent manner by antagonizing the activities of transcription factors such as members of the NF-kB and AP-1 families.7 One very popular cosmetic application is the use of omega-3 fatty acids These are popular natural ligands for PPARα receptors and are key protagonists to preventing and/or reducing inflammation. One critical factor in attempting to utilize pathways linked to PPARs is in the understanding of the up or down regulation of these biological molecules Typical of any biological system there is potential for biofeedback, so understanding the pathways and assay methodologies is important. The good news is gene expression and cell culture models now allow the high throughput analysis of materials which may take part in PPAR regulation. This fact and the numerous peer review publications give the cosmetic chemist the necessary tools to study PPARs

The Future of SPF and UVA-PF Testing: HDRS and ISO 23698

Eduardo Ruvolo (Beiersdorf)

The hybrid diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (HDRS) technique is the first non-erythemal/nonpigmenting approach to measuring the in vivo sun protection factor (SPF) and UVA Protection Factor (UVA-PF). Skin reflectance measurements in combination with in vitro transmission measurements can provide the correct assessment of the SPF, UVA-PF (in vivo/in vitro), and critical wavelength. This presentation will cover the status of the development of ISO 23698, presenting results from ring studies and the bioequivalence method with in vivo assessment The HDRS method eliminates skin irradiation and does not require SPF target for exposures The HDRS method will allow sunscreen developers and laboratory testing facilities to better understand, test, and develop sunscreen products.

Self-Tanning, History of DHA, and Formulating Considerations

Howard Epstein, Ph.D. (EMD Electronics)

Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), an ingredient currently used for sunless self-tanning, has a history of use for well over 60 years During the 1920s, DHA was investigated to treat diabetics as a glucose substitute The skin tanning property was discovered when DHA was administered orally to children and some of the DHA accidently deposited on the skin’s surface resulting in discoloration During the 1950s, DHA began to be commercialized as a self-tanning ingredient; however, the mechanism of self-tanning was unknown George Guest and Eva W ittengestein scientists at the Research Institute, Children’s Hospital, Cincinnati, Ohio investigated the mechanism and published their findings during the early 1960s

For mulating self-tanning products with DHA is not without challenges Ingredient compatibility, appropriate selection of emulsifiers, pH, presence of metal oxides, and other considerations can promote development of an orange color on skin and lead to for mulation instability In this presentation, we will review for mulation considerations essential for DHA self-tanning products.

n Howard Epstein, Ph.D.

Howard Epstein is Director of Technical Services for EMD Electronics, Surface Solutions, Philadelphia, PA an affiliate of Merck KGaA, Dar mstadt, Ger many.

Creating a Transparent Sunscreen for Diverse Skin Tones Using Mineral Filters

Maitree Kanjilal (Kobo Products)

UVA and UVB radiation are known to cause aging, skin cancer, wrinkles, and dark spots Broad spectrum sunscreens provide protection; however, marketed for mulations need to be more inclusive to protect those with deeper skin tones It is a challenge to find aesthetically pleasing products with high protective effects. Organic UV filters can be utilized to meet the need of this demographic However, since they penetrate the skin, they are less desirable at least until the FDA definitively categorizes these materials as generally recognized as safe (GRAS).

Maitree is currently a Staff Scientist at Kobo Products the leading powder and dispersion specialist worldwide She started her career at Dow Chemical Corporation as a technologist. She later worked at Schwan Cosmetics USA as a Chemist for many years before joining the KOBO R&D team Maitree received a M.S. degree in Physics from University of Calcutta (CU) with a specialization in Crystallography She is a member of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists

Your Ideal Bodygard: The Use of Fused-Ring

Cyanoacrylate Chemistry to Accompany Sunscreens in the Battle Against Photoaging

Tia Alkazaz (Hallstar Beauty)

Protecting skin from sun damage is one of the most effective ways to prevent signs of visible aging Innovative stabilization chemistry has enabled authentic, effective protection from direct damage by the most penetrating, longer wavelength (340–400 nm) UVA-I rays However, even some stable chemical sunscreen agents can transfer the energy they absorb to molecular oxygen (creating reactive oxygen species (ROS)) and cause damage to the skin’s DNA, protein, and lipids

Antioxidant additives can scavenge and quench the resulting free radicals and ensuing oxidation events However, their neutralization capability is limited and complicated by strong color, even at low concentrations Antioxidants are, at best, a partial and after-the-fact response At the same time, even with highly advanced for mulations and ideal usage, the effects of the UVA-I region of the light spectrum can never be completely blocked or absorbed UV photons always take some toll on the skin whenever exposure occurs.

The use of fused-ring cyanoacrylates chemistry is a revolutionary, proactive way to halt photoaging in its tracks Rather than repair already-damaged DNA or block some of skin’s exposure to ultraviolet or visible light, fused-ring cyanoacrylates chemistry protects by quenching excitation of skin’s endogenous photosensitizers Photo-induced aging damage is thus avoided because the for mation of singlet oxygen and other ROS is stopped before it starts.

NYSCC History Project NYSCC History Project ...Steve Herman

Thirty Years Ago

One of the most eventful years in NYSCC history was 1993, the year when Suppliers’ Day burst the bounds of hotel ballrooms. The event moved to the Meadowlands Convention Center and attracted nearly 3,500 attendees to see the offerings on display in over 150 supplier booths Equally important, the calendar of events was considered a high priority in 1993:

• January – New Frontiers in Fragrance Use

• February – Exotic Botanical Ingredients

• March – Ingredients and Product Trends for the 1990s

• April – Annual Spring Seminar

• May – Suppliers’ Day

• September – Entrepreneurial Marketing

• October – Ethnic Cosmetic Products

• November – Shampoo Ingredients; Geminis, The Next Generation of Surfactants

BEAUTY

Also, in October 1993, the NYSCC subsidized an all-day educational seminar at Fairleigh Dickinson University on emulsion technology which included a buffet lunch all for only $15

The Chapter bought two laptops that year remember, this was 1993 one for the secretary and one for the membership chair In 1994, Best Buy was selling notebook computers for about $2,600 to $3,300, roughly $6,700 for a high-end laptop in today’s dollars Also purchased were a new 35 mm slide projector and laser pointer. The next February, in 1994, to skip ahead a little, we had a speaker from Microsoft explain W indows.

A scientific advisory committee was also revived in 1993. In addition, an ad-hoc committee reviewed the by-laws, and the revised version was approved by a vote of the membership in November Finally, a survey was taken concerning monthly meetings, annual seminars, technical topics, and other areas related to Chapter activities

The year 1993 was indeed an action-packed time for the NYSCC, and here are some of the Officers and Committee Chairs that made it a success:

• Chair – Joseph Pavlichko

• Chair-Elect – Ken Klein

• Advisor – Steve Her man

• Treasurer – Mary Davis

• Secretary – Bill Woods

• Suppliers’ Day – Heidi Ehrenberger

• Spring Seminar – Tom Schamper

• FDU Seminar – John Carson

• Program – Ken Lesenko

Cosmetic ingredients based on rare, exotic, or even endangered plant species are of big interest to the cosmetic industry for two reasons Firstly, scientists believe that plants or microorganisms capable of growing in extreme conditions contain molecules that also offer very special effects to the skin Secondly, marketing professionals like exotic plants as they can be used to create novel, appealing marketing stories for the consumers However, with the increasing demand for sustainable raw materials, the use of these rare and exotic plants is limited in the world of cosmetics To overcome this problem, the application of biotechnology to produce biomass of these special plants or microorganisms in a sustainable way is gaining a lot of interest from the sector. In our presentation, we will introduce a few exciting new technologies to generate biomass for active cosmetic ingredients sustainably
