Definitions

  • This disclosure relates to natural topical and analgesic pain relief and anti-inflammation compositions and methods to reduce pain and inflammation. More particularly, this disclosure relates to the use of cannabinoid compounds in hydrophilic compositions comprised of synthetic and natural plant extract compounds that are multifunctional TRPM8 ion channel agonists, TRPA1 and TRPV1 ion channel antagonists, CGRP antagonists, COX-2 inhibitors and CB1 and CB2 antagonists.
  • Pain perception is a complex and actively researched field of scientific inquiry. Cutaneous, joint, muscle, headache and gastrointestinal pain is perceived and then transmitted through nerve endings to the brain. Nociception, the sensing of pain, represents encoding and processing of harmful stimuli in the nervous system.
  • the afferent activity in the nervous system produced by specialized free nerve endings referred to as nociceptors or “pain receptors” only respond to tissue damage caused by intense chemical (e.g., chemical burn on the skin), mechanical (e.g., pinching) or thermal (e.g., heat and cold) stimulation.
  • thermosensitive nerves In vertebrates, the somatosensory system can discriminate small changes in ambient temperature, which activate nerve endings of primary afferent fibers. These thermosensitive nerves are further distinguished into those that detect either innocuous (non-painful) or noxious (painful) temperatures.
  • the mechanism for the perception of cooling sensation of the skin can be ascertained with as little as a 1° C. change in temperature. When the temperature on the skin decreases and approaches 15° C., however, the perception of cold pain is sensed via nociceptors.
  • Thermosensitive afferent nerve fibers that carry impulses from the body to the brain express ion channels of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family and respond at distinct temperature thresholds. This comprises the molecular basis for thermosensation.
  • TRP transient receptor potential
  • Transient Receptor Potential channels are a group of ion channels found in cells of many animal cell types. Many of these channels mediate a variety of sensations like the sensations of pain, hotness, warmth or coldness.
  • the main temperature sensors belong to the TRP cation channel family, but the actual mechanisms underlying the marked temperature sensitivity of opening and closing (gating) of these channels is still largely unknown. While activation of various TRP ion channels causes stimuli such as that the result of chemical, mechanical or thermally induced pain, these same TRP ion channels can be inhibited to decrease or eliminate the sensing of pain.
  • TRP channels represent a heterogeneous system oriented towards environment perception, and participating in sensing visual, gustatory, olfactive, auditive, mechanical, thermal, and osmotic stimuli.
  • the TRP family of channels currently contains more than 50 different channels.
  • TRP channel gating is operated by both the direct action on the channel by a plethora of exogenous and endogenous physicochemical stimuli.
  • TRPA1 ion channel plays a key role in the detection of pungent or irritant compounds, including compounds contained in different spicy foods, such as allyl isothiocyanate (in mustard oil), horseradish, allicin and diallyldisulfide in garlic, cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon, gingerol (in ginger), eugenol (in cloves), methyl salicylate (in wintergreen), menthol (in peppermint), carvacrol (in oregano), thymol (in thyme and oregano).
  • allyl isothiocyanate in mustard oil
  • horseradish allicin and diallyldisulfide in garlic
  • cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon
  • gingerol in ginger
  • eugenol in cloves
  • methyl salicylate in wintergreen
  • menthol in peppermint
  • carvacrol in oregano
  • thymol in thyme and oregano
  • environmental irritants and industry pollutants such as acetaldehyde, formalin, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, isocyanates, ozone, carbon dioxide, ultraviolet light, and acrolein (a highly reactive ⁇ , ⁇ -unsaturated aldehyde present in tear gas, cigarette smoke, smoke from burning vegetation, and vehicle exhaust), have been recognized as TRPA1 activators.
  • Temperature sensing is controlled by voltage-dependent gating in the cold-sensitive channel TRPA1, the cool-sensitive channel TRPM8 (a transient receptor) and the heat sensitive ion channel TRPV1.
  • temperatures are greater than about 43° C. and below about 15° C., in addition to temperature sensing there is a feeling of pain.
  • six thermosensitive ion channels have been reported, all of which belong to the TRP superfamily. These include TRPV1 (VR1), TRPV2 (VRL-1), TRPV3, TRPV4, TRPM8 (CMR1), and TRPA1 (formerly ANKTM1). These channels exhibit distinct thermal activation thresholds (>43° C. for TRPV1, >52° C. for TRPV2, > ⁇ 34-38° C.
  • TRPV3 > ⁇ 27-35° C. for TRPV4, ⁇ ⁇ 25-28° C. for TRPM8, and ⁇ 17° C. for TRPA1. Therefore, it is apparent that activating TPRA1 will cause cold pain and TRPV1 and TRPV2 will cause hot pain.
  • TRPA1 is a TRP channel that functions as a receptor for noxious cold temperatures and various tissue and skin irritations, for example those caused by parabens and burns from alkaline compounds, as well as cooling compounds, such as menthol, as well as methyl salicylate.
  • TRPA1 activators are also known as triggers of migraine attack. Because TRPA1 is an excitatory ion channel targeted by cold nociception and inflammatory pain, TRPA1 is a promising target for use in identifying analgesic drugs that could inhibit TRPA1.
  • TRPM8 is a thermosensitive receptor that detects cool temperatures, as well as several essential oil compounds including menthol, 1,8-cineole, geraniol, linalool, thymol, borneol, 2-methylisoborneol, fenchyl alcohol and hydroxycitronellal, as well as the synthetic organic compound icilin.
  • Menthol, in the form of peppermint essential oil, has been used since ancient times for pain relief, which is now known through the TRPM8 activation mechanism.
  • menthol has recently been shown to have different effects on TRPA1 gating in humans than in mice.
  • Camphor is also a known antagonist to menthol activated TRPM8. In humans menthol alone has been shown to be a TRPM8 agonist (desirable for a topical analgesic) but also a TRPA1 agonist (undesirable for a topical analgesic because this induces pain).
  • 1,8-cineole eucalyptol activates human TRPM8 (hTRPM8) without activating hTRPA1. They also demonstrated that 1,8-cineole did not activate hTRPV1 or hTRPV2. 1,8-cineole is present in Eucalyptus oil from several species in highly varying concentrations (less than 5 percent to greater than 80 percent), in several Rosmarinus officinalis chemotypes (up to ⁇ 50 percent) and in Salvia lavandulifolia (up to ⁇ 25 percent). It has been shown that TRPM8 activation decreases inflammation and pain.
  • TRPM8 activation by menthol was reported by these researchers, it did not decrease human inflammatory response, likely because it also activated TRPA1, which causes inflammation. Further, application of menthol with 1,8-cineole significantly reduced irritation probably through inhibition of TRPA1 by 1,8-cineole.
  • TRPA1 activation by 20 uM AITC was inactivated (IC-50 concentration) in order from lowest to highest concentration by 2-methylosoborneol (0.12 mM), borneol (0.20 mM), fenchyl alcohol 0.32 mM, camphor (1.26 mM) and 1,8-cineole (3.43 mM).
  • TRPV1 is a novel target for omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
  • J. Physiol. 578, 397-411 reported that Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were novel targets for TRPV1. Specifically they reported that docosahexaenoic acid exhibits the greatest efficacy as a TRPV1 agonist. However, eicosapentaenoic acid and linolenic acid were markedly more effective inhibitors.
  • Natural and synthetic sources of borneol exist. Natural sources of borneol are preferred, including Thymus satureioides (Red Thyme Borneol Type Morrocco) and Cinnamomum burmanni (Mei Pian Tree).
  • TRPM8 in addition to its antinociceptive action and anti-inflammatory role, TRPM8, is a promising therapeutic target for treating internal inflammatory diseases such as colitis and inflammatory bowel disease.

  • aspirin acetylsalicylic acid
  • Acetylsalicylic acid is a prodrug in that it is hydrolyzed to salicylic acid which is responsible for the COX inhibition properties of aspirin.
  • Methyl salicylate is the major component in wintergreen essential oil. Methyl salicylate is metabolized in humans to salicylic acid, including following absorption through the skin and is therefore also a prodrug to salicylic acid, a known COX-2 inhibitor. Therefore, methyl salicylate acts like a local-topical application of an aspirin-like compound. It is known that menthol increases the rate of methyl salicylate absorption through the skin, but also decreases the hydrolysis rate of methyl salicylate to salicylic acid.
  • CGRP calcitonin gene related peptide

  • Pain perception is a complex and actively researched field of scientific inquiry. Cutaneous, joint, muscle, headache and gastrointestinal pain is perceived and then transmitted through nerve endings to the brain. Nociception, the sensing of pain, represents encoding and processing of harmful stimuli in the nervous system. The afferent activity in the nervous system produced by specialized free nerve endings referred to as nociceptors or “pain receptors” only respond to tissue damage caused by intense chemical (e.g., chemical burn on the skin), mechanical (e.g., pinching) or thermal (e.g., heat and cold) stimulation.
  • In vertebrates, the somatosensory system can discriminate small changes in ambient temperature, which activate nerve endings of primary afferent fibers. These thermosensitive nerves are further distinguished into those that detect either innocuous (non-painful) or noxious (painful) temperatures. The mechanism for the perception of cooling sensation of the skin can be ascertained with as little as a 1° C. change in temperature. When the temperature on the skin decreases and approaches 15° C., however, the perception of cold pain is sensed via nociceptors. Thermosensitive afferent nerve fibers that carry impulses from the body to the brain express ion channels of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family and respond at distinct temperature thresholds. This comprises the molecular basis for thermosensation. Transient Receptor Potential channels are a group of ion channels found in cells of many animal cell types. Many of these channels mediate a variety of sensations like the sensations of pain, hotness, warmth or coldness. The main temperature sensors belong to the TRP cation channel family, but the actual mechanisms underlying the marked temperature sensitivity of opening and closing (gating) of these channels is still largely unknown. While activation of various TRP ion channels causes stimuli such as that the result of chemical, mechanical or thermally induced pain, these same TRP ion channels can be inhibited to decrease or eliminate the sensing of pain.
  • TRP channels represent a heterogeneous system oriented towards environment perception, and participating in sensing visual, gustatory, olfactive, auditive, mechanical, thermal, and osmotic stimuli. The TRP family of channels, currently contains more than 50 different channels. TRP channel gating is operated by both the direct action on the channel by a plethora of exogenous and endogenous physicochemical stimuli. A large amount of evidence shows that TRPA1 ion channel plays a key role in the detection of pungent or irritant compounds, including compounds contained in different spicy foods, such as allyl isothiocyanate (in mustard oil), horseradish, allicin and diallyldisulfide in garlic, cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon, gingerol (in ginger), eugenol (in cloves), methyl salicylate (in wintergreen), menthol (in peppermint), carvacrol (in oregano), thymol (in thyme and oregano). In addition, environmental irritants and industry pollutants, such as acetaldehyde, formalin, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, isocyanates, ozone, carbon dioxide, ultraviolet light, and acrolein (a highly reactive α,β-unsaturated aldehyde present in tear gas, cigarette smoke, smoke from burning vegetation, and vehicle exhaust), have been recognized as TRPA1 activators.
  • Temperature sensing is controlled by voltage-dependent gating in the cold-sensitive channel TRPA1, the cool-sensitive channel TRPM8 (a transient receptor) and the heat sensitive ion channel TRPV1. When temperatures are greater than about 43° C. and below about 15° C., in addition to temperature sensing there is a feeling of pain. In mammals, six thermosensitive ion channels have been reported, all of which belong to the TRP superfamily. These include TRPV1 (VR1), TRPV2 (VRL-1), TRPV3, TRPV4, TRPM8 (CMR1), and TRPA1 (formerly ANKTM1). These channels exhibit distinct thermal activation thresholds (>43° C. for TRPV1, >52° C. for TRPV2, >˜34-38° C. for TRPV3, >˜27-35° C. for TRPV4, <˜25-28° C. for TRPM8, and <17° C. for TRPA1. Therefore, it is apparent that activating TPRA1 will cause cold pain and TRPV1 and TRPV2 will cause hot pain.
  • TRPA1 is a TRP channel that functions as a receptor for noxious cold temperatures and various tissue and skin irritations, for example those caused by parabens and burns from alkaline compounds, as well as cooling compounds, such as menthol, as well as methyl salicylate. Several of the TRPA1 activators are also known as triggers of migraine attack. Because TRPA1 is an excitatory ion channel targeted by cold nociception and inflammatory pain, TRPA1 is a promising target for use in identifying analgesic drugs that could inhibit TRPA1.
  • TRPM8 is a thermosensitive receptor that detects cool temperatures, as well as several essential oil compounds including menthol, 1,8-cineole, geraniol, linalool, thymol, borneol, 2-methylisoborneol, fenchyl alcohol and hydroxycitronellal, as well as the synthetic organic compound icilin. Menthol, in the form of peppermint essential oil, has been used since ancient times for pain relief, which is now known through the TRPM8 activation mechanism. However, menthol has recently been shown to have different effects on TRPA1 gating in humans than in mice. Past research identified that menthol exhibited bimodal action ion channel gating by menthol of mouse TRPA1 (mTRPA1), in which submicromolar to low micromolar-concentrations of menthol caused robust channel activation, but higher concentrations led to a reversible channel block. However, this bimodal action is not observed on human TRPA1 (hTRPA1) because high doses of menthol cause sensory irritation the result of TRPA1 activation. Camphor, another essential oil component, is now known to exert analgesic effects probably through inhibition of TRPA1 and activation of TRPM8. However, camphor is not suited for use as an analgesic compound in this present disclosure because it also causes a warm and hot sensation through TRPV1 and TRPV3 activation. Camphor is also a known antagonist to menthol activated TRPM8. In humans menthol alone has been shown to be a TRPM8 agonist (desirable for a topical analgesic) but also a TRPA1 agonist (undesirable for a topical analgesic because this induces pain).
  • In recent research, Takaishi, M., Fujita, F., Uchida, K., Yamamoto, S., Sawada Shimizu, M., Hatai Uotsu C. (2012) 1,8-Cineole, a TRPM8 agonist, is a novel natural antagonist of human TRPA1. Mol Pain. 2012; 8:86-97, it was concluded that an effective analgesic compound would activate TRPM8 (i.e., desirable cooling, reducing pain and/or anti-inflammatory properties) and inhibit TRPA1 (i.e., undesirable causation of cold pain and inflammation) but not activate TRPV1 (i.e., undesirable causation of hot pain and inflammation). These researchers reported that 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol) activates human TRPM8 (hTRPM8) without activating hTRPA1. They also demonstrated that 1,8-cineole did not activate hTRPV1 or hTRPV2. 1,8-cineole is present in Eucalyptus oil from several species in highly varying concentrations (less than 5 percent to greater than 80 percent), in several Rosmarinus officinalis chemotypes (up to ˜50 percent) and in Salvia lavandulifolia (up to ˜25 percent). It has been shown that TRPM8 activation decreases inflammation and pain. While TRPM8 activation by menthol was reported by these researchers, it did not decrease human inflammatory response, likely because it also activated TRPA1, which causes inflammation. Further, application of menthol with 1,8-cineole significantly reduced irritation probably through inhibition of TRPA1 by 1,8-cineole.
  • As a follow-up to this research, an additional study was published by the same research group (Takaishi, M., Uchida, K., Fujita, F., Tominaga, M. (2014) Inhibitory effects of monoterpenes on human TRPA1 and the structural basis of their activity. J Physiol Sci. 64:47-57) on the role of several monoterpene analogs of camphor and their ability to inhibit hTRPA1. They reported that 1,8-cineole, camphor, borneol, 2-methylosoborneol, norcamphor and fenchyl alcohol did not activate hTRPA1 and that borneol, 2-methylosoborneol and fenchyl alcohol at 1 mM completely inhibited hTRPA1 activation by menthol and allyl isothiocyanate (mustard oil) at 1 mM and 10 uM, respectively. It was found that TRPA1 activation by 20 uM AITC was inactivated (IC-50 concentration) in order from lowest to highest concentration by 2-methylosoborneol (0.12 mM), borneol (0.20 mM), fenchyl alcohol 0.32 mM, camphor (1.26 mM) and 1,8-cineole (3.43 mM).
  • Matta, J. A., Miyares, R. L. & Ahern, G. P. (2007). TRPV1 is a novel target for omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. J. Physiol. 578, 397-411, reported that Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were novel targets for TRPV1. Specifically they reported that docosahexaenoic acid exhibits the greatest efficacy as a TRPV1 agonist. However, eicosapentaenoic acid and linolenic acid were markedly more effective inhibitors. Comparatively eicosapentaenoic acid but not docosahexaenoic acid profoundly reduced capsaicin-evoked pain-related behavior in mice. Very recently, Morales-Lázaro et al. (2016). Inhibition of TRPV1 channels by a naturally occurring omega-9 fatty acid reduces pain and itch. Nature Communications, (7) 13092, reported a naturally occurring monounsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid, inhibited TRPV1 activity, and also pain and itch responses in mice by interacting with the vanilloid (capsaicin)-binding pocket and promoting the stabilization of a closed state conformation.
  • Natural and synthetic sources of borneol exist. Natural sources of borneol are preferred, including Thymus satureioides (Red Thyme Borneol Type Morrocco) and Cinnamomum burmanni (Mei Pian Tree).
  • Recently, researchers have reported that in addition to its antinociceptive action and anti-inflammatory role, TRPM8, is a promising therapeutic target for treating internal inflammatory diseases such as colitis and inflammatory bowel disease.
  • The plant genus Cannabis is a member of the plant family Cannabaceae, and there are 3 primary cannabis species which vary in their biochemical constituents: Cannabis saliva, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis. In general, cannabis that has high levels of the psychoactive cannabinoid, delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), and low levels of the non/antipsychoactive cannabinoid, cannabidiol (CBD), is referred to as “marijuana”. Cannabis that has high levels of CBD, and very low insignificant levels of Δ9-THC, is referred to as “industrial hemp,” or “hemp,” and has no psychoactive effects (Baron, et al., 2015). Recent advancements in selective breeding has enabled Cannabis sativa L. to yield high concentrations of CBD and low concentrations of THC. CBD concentrations in these hybrid Cannabis sativa L. plants enable CBD yields of 15% and higher and THC yields of 1% and lower. A breakthrough in the understanding of how cannabis works in the brain occurred with the discovery of the endogenous cannabinoids and receptors. The endocannabinoid system is widely distributed throughout the brain and spinal cord, and plays a role in many regulatory physiological processes including inflammation and nociception/pain. The endocannabinoid system consists of the cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and 2 (CB2) receptors, the endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligands (endogenous cannabinoids) n-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide, or AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), as well as their degrading enzymes fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase, respectively. Mechoulam (2013) reported that the CB1 receptor mediated anti-inflammatory effects of cannabinoids are suspected to be secondary to inhibition of arachidonic acid conversion by cyclooxygenase although CB2 receptor activation induces immunosuppression, which also reduces inflammation. Because of this, cannabinoid compounds including Δ9-THC and CBD have become of interest in pain and topical pain relief. This is particularly true of CBD, which exhibits no psychoactive effects.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,949,582 B1 teaches a method of relieving analgesia and reducing inflammation using a cannabinoid delivery topical liniment composition containing from about 97.5% to about 99.5% by weight a 70% monohydric alcohol solution, and from about 0.5% to about 2.5% by weight of a synergistic cannabinoid mixture extracted from the female plant Cannabis sativa L, including in combination: 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V), Cannabigerol (CBG), terpenoids, and flavonoids. In U.S. Pat. No. 6,949,582 B1, it is taught that the liniment is applied topically, preferably by spraying, and the constituents of the mixture are absorbed through the skin and interact with cannabinoid receptors in the body and tissues of a human patient to produce therapeutic analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, without undesirable psychotropic side effects. U.S. Publication No. 2015/0086494 A1 teaches a topical formulation comprising a Cannabis derived botanical drug product, wherein the concentration of tetrahydrocannabinol and/or cannabidiol in the topical formulation is greater than 2 milligrams per kilogram. In some embodiments of U.S. Publication No. 2015/0086494 A1, the topical formulation further comprises an analgesic agent, including methyl salicylate, codeine, morphine, methadone, pethidine, buprenorphine, hydromorphine, levorphanol, oxycodone, fentanyl, and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. The amount of the analgesic agent in the topical formulation is not particularly limited, so long as it is a therapeutically effective amount. A preferred amount is from 0.01 to 5 wt %, relative to the total amount of the topical formulation, more preferably from 0.1 to 1 wt %, relative to the total amount of the topical formulation.
  • However, research reported by De Petrocellis L. et al., Effects of cannabinoids and cannabinoid-enriched Cannabis extracts on TRP channels and endocannabinoid metabolic enzymes. Br J Pharmacol 2011; 163: 1479-1494, reported that some TRP channels may serve as ionotropic cannabinoid receptors, which, in the context of primary afferent nerve fibers, may contribute to inflammatory hypersensitivity or vasodilatation. These results were supported by their earlier work in which they found previously that some cannabinoids activate TRPV1 (Ligresti et al., 2006) and TRPA1 (De Petrocellis L. et al., Plant-derived cannabinoids modulate the activity of transient receptor potential channels of ankyrin type-1 and melastatin type-8. J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2008; 325:1007-1015) and antagonize TRPM8 (De Petrocellis et al., 2008, supra). Because TRPA1 ion channel is a pain and inflammation sensor, the activation of TRPA1 by cannabinoids, including delta-9-THC and CBD is not a favorable property of cannabinoid compounds. Further because TRPM8 is an ion channel associated with pain relief and anti-inflammation, its blocking by cannabinoid compounds is not a favorable property of cannabinoid compounds, particularly delta-9-THC and CBD.
  • It is well known in the art that cannabinoid compounds can be concentrated and extracted from various portions of Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis plants. Cannabinoid compound extraction processes include, but are not limited to, solvents, supercritical carbon dioxide, supercritical carbon dioxide with cosolvents, oils. Extracted cannabinoid compounds may be further isolated using chromatographic separation processes to form single cannabinoid compound extracts. Concentrated cannabinoid compound isolates include, but are not limited to; 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V) and Cannabigerol (CBG).
  • The present disclosure provides many advantages, which shall become apparent as described below.
  • SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • This disclosure relates in part to compositions and methods of use and manufacture of topical analgesics that are more effective than existing compositions and products. This disclosure also relates to compositions and methods of use and manufacture of analgesics that can be administered both orally and topically.
  • One feature of this present disclosure is to block the signaling of pain from the skin, muscles and joints to the brain through TRPM8 activation and TRPA1 inactivation without activating TRPV ion channels. Another complimentary feature of this disclosure of is to inhibit the inflammation enzyme cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2). COX-2 is responsible for the formation of a group of inflammatory mediators known as prostaglandins. COX-2 inhibitors have analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity by blocking the transformation of arachidonic acid into prostaglandin H2 selectively. For example, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) is a competitive active site inhibitor of COX-2, thereby stopping the formation of prostagladins and because of this acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Acetylsalicylic acid is a prodrug in that it is hydrolyzed to salicylic acid which is responsible for the COX inhibition properties of aspirin. Methyl salicylate is the major component in wintergreen essential oil. Methyl salicylate is metabolized in humans to salicylic acid, including following absorption through the skin and is therefore also a prodrug to salicylic acid, a known COX-2 inhibitor. Therefore, methyl salicylate acts like a local-topical application of an aspirin-like compound. It is known that menthol increases the rate of methyl salicylate absorption through the skin, but also decreases the hydrolysis rate of methyl salicylate to salicylic acid.
  • Yet another feature of this disclosure is the neutralization of the release of calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) through inactivation of TRPA1. CGRP is a member of the calcitonin family of peptides, existing in two forms: α-CGRP and β-CGRP. CGRP is produced in both peripheral and central neurons and is a peptide vasodilator and functions in pain transmission. When synthesized in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. CORP is mainly derived mainly from cell bodies of motor neurons and may contribute to the regeneration of nervous tissue after injury. CGRP is also derived from dorsal root ganglion when synthesized in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord and may be linked to the transmission of pain. CGRP is therefore involved in the nociception process which contributes to the perception of pain.
  • This disclosure also relates in part to the incorporation of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) in the composition to provide further anti-inflammatory and rapid skin penetration of other bioactive compounds in this present disclosure. Flax seed, pumpkin seed, hemp, hemp seed, chia seed oil, algal oil, perilla seed oil and walnut seed oils high in Omega-3 fatty acids are particularly preferred natural sources of Omega-3 fatty acids featured in this present disclosure.
  • This disclosure further relates in part to compositions and methods to reduce pain and inflammation additionally comprise a topically active NSAID, for example but not limited to diclofenac or a salt of diclofenac thereof. Compositions of NSAIDs in combination with the TRPA1 antagonists and TRPM8 agonists in this present disclosure are unexpectedly effective in pain relief and reduction of inflammation and methods to treat pain and inflammation. In yet another embodiment of this present disclosure methyl salicylate and a NSAID are combined with the TRPA1 antagonists and TRPM8 agonists in this present disclosure and are unexpectedly effective in pain relief and reduction of inflammation and methods to treat pain and inflammation.
  • This disclosure yet further relates in part to cannabinoid (both phytocannabinoid and synthetic cannabinoid) compounds, including but not limited to: 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V), Cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinoid terpenoids, and cannabinoid flavonoids; cannabinol (CBN) are combined with TRPA1 antagonists and optionally, TRPM8 agonists; and further optionally with one or more NSAIDs and optionally oils high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Because of its lack of psychoactive properties CBD is a preferred phytocannabinoid in this disclosure.
  • This disclosure yet further relates to cannabinoid compounds that are extracts from various portions of Cannabis saliva, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderals plants. The extracts may be in the form of one or more of powders, resins, solids, oils or granules. The extracts may be single cannabinoid compound extracts or contain multiple cannabinoid compounds.
  • This disclosure also relates in part to the incorporation of the composition into either a hydrophilic or hydrophobic base, suspensions, solids, semi-solids, powders, or nanoparticles for pharmaceutical compositions, in which the pharmaceutical composition comprises one or more of a sprayable liquid, a gel, a lotion, a film, an ointment, a massage oil, a cream, a paste, a stick, a patch, tablets, capsules, powders or granules. The sprayable liquid may be applied from a hand-pumped spray bottle or alternatively, or an aerosol from an inert gas pressurized container spray.
  • This disclosure also relates to the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions comprising solids, semi-solids, powders and granules with one or more excipients selected from the group consisting of diluents, fillers, binders, adhesives, disintegrants, lubricants, anti-adhesives glidents, coloring agents, sweeteners, coating agents, plasticizers, wetting agents, buffers, lactose, dibasic calcium phosphate, sucrose, corn (maize) starch, microcrystalline cellulose or modified cellulose (for example hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and hydroxyethylcellulose).
  • Activation of various TRP ion channels cause stimuli such as that the result of chemical, mechanical or thermally induced pain. It is also known that these same TRP ion channels can be inhibited to decrease or eliminate the sensing of pain. Surprisingly, it has been found in this present disclosure that natural compounds can be combined to control gating to inhibit key pain inducing TRP ion channels, including TRPA1 and TRPV1, and to activate the TRPM8 ion channel. The control of TRP ion channels is a key embodiment in compositions used in this present disclosure to manufacture topical analgesic compositions and serve as the basis of methods to reduce inflammation and pain. Compositions of this present disclosure may include natural fixed seed oils containing high concentrations of Omega-3 essential fatty acids selected from a group comprising: flaxseed oil, hemp oil, hemp seed oil, kiwifruit seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, chia seed oil, algal oil, perilla seed oil and walnut oil. These novel topically administrated compositions and methods relieve inflammation and pain in mammals associated with one or more of nociceptive, neuropathic, somatic pain, radicular pain and associated musculoskeletal, osteoarthritic, muscle, joint, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, back, strains and sprains pain associated with sports injuries, post-surgical conditions and other diseases.

Yet further compositions of this present disclosure include menthol and/or 1,8-cineole and borneol and methyl salicylate. Yet further compositions of this present disclosure include menthol and/or 1,8-cineole and borneol and methyl salicylate and Omega-3 essential fatty acids. These are complementary bioactive natural compounds are used in combination in this present disclosure. Menthol is used as an effective TRPM8 agonist, however in humans it also is a TRPA1 agonist associate with pain and inflammation. 1,8-cincole and borneol are fortuitously naturally occurring bioactive compounds that are TRPA1 antagonists as well as a TRPM8 agonists. 1,8-cineole and borneol therefore inhibit pain and inflammation associated with activation of TRPA1 caused by injuries, pain or by menthol and additionally activates the TRPM8 ion channel. Further it has been surprisingly found that the addition of at least one fixed plant seed oil containing high concentrations of Omega-3 essential fatty acids also serves to reduce pain and inflammation and makes the composition of menthol and 1,8-cineole and/or borneol less irritating to the skin, as well as facilities transport of the topical pain relief compositions through and into the dermis, epidermis, subcutis and to tissues below the skin.
  • Yet in another embodiment of this present disclosure, cannabinoid (both phytocannabinoid and synthetic cannabinoid) compounds, including but not limited to: 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V), Cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinoid terpenoids, and cannabinoid flavonoids; cannabinol (CBN) are combined with TRPA1 anatagonists and optionally, TRPM8 agonists; and further optionally with one or more NSAIDs and optionally oils high in Omega-3 fatty acids.

COX-2 inhibitors prevent inflammation and pain and in one embodiment of this present disclosure are unexpectedly effective as a result of the synergy of methyl salicylate in combination with TRPA1 and TRPV1 antagonists and TRPM8 agonists. The addition of 1,8-cineole and/or borneol in this present disclosure also are effective at inactivating the gating of the TRPA1 ion channel associated with methyl salicylate.

  • DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
  • Activation of various TRP ion channels cause stimuli such as that the result of chemical, mechanical or thermally induced pain. It is also known that these same TRP ion channels can be inhibited to decrease or eliminate the sensing of pain. Surprisingly, it has been found in this present disclosure that natural compounds can be combined to control gating to inhibit key pain inducing TRP ion channels, including TRPA1 and TRPV1, and to stimulate the TRPM8 ion channel. The control of TRP ion channels is a key embodiment in compositions used in this present disclosure to manufacture topical analgesic compositions and serve as the basis of methods to reduce inflammation and pain. Compositions of this present disclosure can include natural fixed seed oils containing high concentrations of Omega-3 essential fatty acids selected from a group comprising: flaxseed oil, hemp oil, hempseed oil, kiwifruit seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, chia seed oil, algal oil, perilla seed oil and walnut oil.

  • Compositions in this present disclosure include menthol, 1,8-cineole and/or borneol and Omega-3 essential fatty acids. These are complementary bioactive natural compounds are used in combination in this present disclosure. Menthol is used as an effective TRPM8 agonist, however in humans it also is a TRPA1 agonist associated with pain and inflammation. Because menthol activates TRPA1, it also has the sensation of cold which can be uncomfortable for human applications. 1,8-cineole is fortuitously another naturally occurring bioactive compound that is a TRPA1 antagonist as well as a TRPM8 agonist. Borneol is fortuitously yet another naturally occurring bioactive compound that is a TRPA1 antagonist as well as a TRPM8 agonist. Borneol and/or 1,8-cineole therefore inhibit pain and inflammation associated with activation of TRPA1 caused by menthol and additionally activates the TRPM8 ion channel. Further, the addition of a TRPA1 antagonist in these topical analgesic formulations reduces the cold sensation in comparison to menthol alone and other menthol containing topical formulations. Further, it has been surprisingly found that the addition of at least one fixed plant seed oil containing high concentrations of Omega-3 essential fatty acids also serves to reduce pain and inflammation by the TRPV1 antagonist mechanism and makes the topical analgesic composition of menthol, 1-8-cineole and/or borneol and/or wintergreen oil less irritating to the skin, as well as facilities transport of the topical pain relief compositions through and into the dermis, epidermis, subcutis and to tissues below the skin.
