Slimming cosmetic composition containing a substance inducing the production of IL-6
View Patent ↗This invention relates to a slimming cosmetic composition containing at least one compound inducing the production of IL-6 by the adipocytes in the form of a mixture with an NPY antagonist and/or an α 2 antagonist and with an excipient for a cosmetic preparation.
1. A slimming cosmetic composition comprising three components:
1) a neuropeptide Y (NPY) antagonist component purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Streptomyces sp. strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1132;
2) an α 2 antagonist component purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Bacillus licheniformis strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1778; and
3) a component inducing production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) by adipocytes that is purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Rhodotorula sp. strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1844,
said components in a mixture along with an excipient for cosmetic preparations.
2. A slimming cosmetic composition for topical application comprising:
1) a neuropeptide Y (NPY) antagonist purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Streptomyces sp. strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1132;
2) an α 2 antagonist purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Bacillus licheniformis strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1778;
3) an inducer of the production of IL-6 by adipocytes, said inducer purified from an extract obtained by fermentation by the Rhodotorula sp. strain deposited at the C.N.C.M. of Institut Pasteur under the number I-1844; and
4) a cosmetically acceptable excipient.
3. A method for regulating lipolysis/lipogenesis in the skin comprising administering to a subject a composition of claim 1 or 2 .
