  • Patent number: 7427690
    Abstract: This invention relates to Schiff's bases derived from amino acids and hydroxyaryl alkyl ketones, or a plant extract containing the same, having general chemical structure in FIG. 1 for topical application. This invention also relates to certain metal complex of said Schiff's bases, which have a crown-like appearance in their three-dimensional chemical structure, as in FIG. 2. The Schiff's bases and their metal complexes of the present invention are useful for the modulation of metal-activated enzymes and metalloenzymes, such as Phenylalanine Hydroxylase, Tyrosine Transaminase, Phenylalanine Transaminase, Tyrosinase, various MMP (Matrix metalloproteases), Superoxide dismutase, 5-Alpha Reductase, and citrate lyase. These are further suitable for multifunctional topical methods for skin whitening, skin wrinkles reduction, skin antiaging, collagen synthesis, acne control, hair loss prevention, hair graying control, and facial oil control.

  • Patent number: 7030133
    Abstract: The nonenzymatic glycation and crosslinking of proteins is a part of the aging process with the glycation endproducts and crosslinking of long-lived proteins increasing with age. This process is increased at elevated concentrations of reducing sugars in the blood and in the intracellular environment such as occurs with diabetes. The structural and functional integrity of the affected molecules become disturbed by these modifications and can result in severe consequences. The compounds of the present invention can be used to inhibit this process of nonenzymatic glycation and therefore to inhibit some of the ill effects caused by diabetes or by aging. The compounds are also useful for preventing premature aging, spoilage of proteins in food and can prevent discoloration of teeth.
