Patent number: 9408881Abstract: Compositions comprising metabolized conditioned growth medium and/or metabolized cell extract and methods of use are described. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract compositions may be formulated with an acceptable carrier into injectable or topical formulations, for example, as a cream, lotion or gel, and may be used in cosmeceutical or pharmaceutical applications. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract may also be further processed to concentrate or reduce one or more factors or components contained within the metabolized conditioned growth medium or metabolized cell extract. The growth medium may be conditioned by any eukaryotic cell. The metabolized conditioned growth medium and metabolized cell extract may be used to prevent or treat a condition, for example, a skin condition.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2011Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignees: Allergan, Inc., Arch Personal Care Products, L.P.Inventors: James Vincent Gruber, Smitha Rao, Rahul Mehta, Sujatha Sonti

Patent number: 9000033Abstract: Disclosed is a cosmetic composition comprising prenylated isoflavonoid and a carrier, wherein the prenylated isoflavonoid is from about 0.0000001% to about 10%, preferably from 0.00001% to 1%, most preferably from 0.01% to 1%, by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. The active agent prenylated isoflavonoid induces a statistically significant upregulation of collagen 1A1 and elastin genes in normal human dermal fibroblasts. The composition is effective to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin and improve the appearance and condition of the skin.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2009Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Arch Personal Care Products, L.P.Inventor: James V Gruber

Patent number: 6858212Abstract: Provided is a process of and product resulting from adding a sub-lethal amount of a peroxide, or said peroxide in combination with sub-lethal ultra violet radiation, to a growing culture of a yeast; observing the change in absorbance of the culture at 256 nm as a measure of the injury occurring to the yeast cells, and upon reaching a predetermined absorbance value, purifying the water-soluble yeast extract from the peroxide containing yeast culture. The resulting product has at least 1.5 respiratory units per mg dry weight and has significantly increased amounts of 15, 25 and 55 kilo Daltons (kD) molecular weight products compared to a Live Yeast Cell Derivative as determined by SDS slab gel electrophoresis. This product can be combined with a cosmetically acceptable carrier to provide a composition suitable for topical application to the skin.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2002Date of Patent: February 22, 2005Assignee: Arch Personal Care Products, L.P.Inventors: Durant B.
