  • Cognitive decline is characterized by an age-related decrease in cognitive and executive functions, in particular concentration, working memory, long-term memory, reasoning, judgment, resolution problems and information processing speed. These deficiencies can lead to a decrease in self-esteem and quality of life.
  • Age-related cognitive decline is the term used to describe the non-pathological form of deterioration of memory and cognitive functions consequent to the aging process within normal limits, given a person's age. It is a complex process, with the first signs emerging in humans between 35 and 65 years old, without specific neurodegenerative lesions. Progressive cognitive decline is noticeable by the appearance of minor cognitive problems which affect 15-20% of the population aged 65 or over, but which represent an unstable state.

Description

COMPOSITION COMPRENANT UN MELANGE D'EXTRAITS DE VITIS VINIFERA ET DE VACCINIUM ANGUSTIFOLIUM ET DES PROBIOTIQUES POUR AMELIORER LES FONCTIONS COGNITIVES COMPOSITION COMPRISING A BLEND OF VITIS VINIFERA AND VACCINIUM ANGUSTIFOLIUM EXTRACTS AND PROBIOTICS TO IMPROVE COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS
[0001] Domaine technique [0001] Technical area
[0002] L'invention concerne une composition comprenant au moins un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium, et au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. Une telle composition est destinée à être utilisée comme produit nutritionnel ou médicament pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives chez l'Homme ou l'animal. The invention relates to a composition comprising at least one mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium, and at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast. Such a composition is intended for use as a nutritional product or medicine for improving cognitive functions in humans or animals.
[0003] Art antérieur [0003] Prior art
[0004] Le déclin cognitif et l'apparition des premiers troubles cognitifs, en particulier les maladies neurodégénératives telles que la maladie d'Alzheimer ou la maladie de Parkinson affecte principalement les sujets âgés. De par l'évolution de la médecine et de la qualité des soins apportée, la population âgée augmente. Il y a donc une forte prévalence de ces pathologies liées à l'âge. Il est donc d'intérêt de développer des solutions pour prévenir ou minimiser le déclin cognitif lié à l'âge et retarder l'apparition des pathologies associées, en particulier pour prolonger l'autonomie de la population âgée et ainsi maintenir leur qualité de vie. [0004] Cognitive decline and the appearance of the first cognitive disorders, in particular neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease mainly affects elderly subjects. Due to the evolution of medicine and the quality of care provided, the elderly population is increasing. There is therefore a high prevalence of these age-related pathologies. It is therefore of interest to develop solutions to prevent or minimize age-related cognitive decline and delay the onset of associated pathologies, in particular to prolong the autonomy of the elderly population and thus maintain their quality of life.
[0005] Des sujets en bonne santé souffrant d'aucune pathologie sont aussi à la recherche de solutions pour améliorer leurs fonctions cognitives, en particulier la mémoire, l'attention, la concentration, la vivacité, la vigilance, l'apprentissage, le langage, l'humeur, le stress, l'anxiété ou le sommeil et ainsi maintenir un état de bien-être. Il est connu que la nutrition est un facteur important pour prévenir l'altération des fonctions cognitives. [0005] Healthy subjects suffering from any pathology are also looking for solutions to improve their cognitive functions, in particular memory, attention, concentration, alertness, alertness, learning, language , mood, stress, anxiety or sleep and thus maintain a state of well-being. It is known that nutrition is an important factor in preventing cognitive impairment.
[0006] A cette fin, il a été développé, des agents nutritionnels et compléments alimentaires. En particulier, le brevet FR3042712 décrit un mélange de molécules obtenu à partir de Vitis vinifera et de Vaccinium angustifolium, comprenant au moins 1% de catéchine et/ou épicatéchine, et au moins 5 ppm d'acide férulique. Deux études cliniques montrant l'efficacité de ce mélange de molécules ont été publiées (Bensalem J et al. Polyphenols From Grape and Blueberry Improve Episodic Memory in Healthy Elderly with Lower Level of Memory Performance: A Bicentric Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Study. J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci. 2019 Jul 19;74(7):996-1007; Hakkinen PJ. Hair. In: Editor-in-Chief: Philip W, editor. Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Second Edition). New York: Elsevier; 2005. p. 475- 7). Un tel mélange est donc connu ainsi que ses effets sur les fonctions cognitives de l'être humain lors de prise aigue chez le jeune adulte ou de prise chronique chez la personne âgée. [0007] Il est également communément admis que le tractus intestinal de l'Homme ou l'animal héberge un grand nombre de populations microbiennes très diverses, appelé respectivement microbiote et zoobiote. De plus en plus d'études confirment l'importance du microbiote intes tinal pour la santé de l'hôte, y compris pour les fonctions cognitives et psychologiques au tra vers de la communication bidirectionnelle intestin-cerveau (« gut-brain axis ») (Tyler Patterson T, Grandhi R. Gut Microbiota and Neurologie Diseases and Injuries. In: Advances in Experimen tal Medicine and Biology. Springer ; 2020. p. 73-91.). Une dysbiose du microbiote intestinal peut ainsi être associée à des troubles du comportement et de la cognition. [0006] To this end, nutritional agents and food supplements have been developed. In particular, patent FR3042712 describes a mixture of molecules obtained from Vitis vinifera and Vaccinium angustifolium, comprising at least 1% of catechin and/or epicatechin, and at least 5 ppm of ferulic acid. Two clinical studies showing the effectiveness of this mixture of molecules have been published (Bensalem J et al. Polyphenols From Grape and Blueberry Improve Episodic Memory in Healthy Elderly with Lower Level of Memory Performance: A Bicentric Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Study. J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci. 2019 Jul 19;74(7):996-1007; Hakkinen PJ. Hair. In: Editor-in-Chief: Philip W, editor. Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Second Edition). New York: Elsevier; 2005. pp. 475-7). Such a mixture is therefore known as well as its effects on the cognitive functions of the being human during acute intake in young adults or chronic intake in the elderly. [0007] It is also commonly accepted that the intestinal tract of humans or animals harbors a large number of very diverse microbial populations, called microbiota and zoobiota respectively. More and more studies confirm the importance of the gut microbiota for the health of the host, including for cognitive and psychological functions through the bidirectional gut-brain communication (gut-brain axis) ( Tyler Patterson T, Grandhi R. Gut Microbiota and Neurology Diseases and Injuries. In: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology. Springer; 2020. pp. 73-91.). A dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota can thus be associated with behavioral and cognitive disorders.
[0008] Par ailleurs, l'inflammation intestinale peut favoriser la détérioration cognitive et la démence. A titre d'exemple, une diminution de l'abondance des espèces bactériennes anti inflammatoires telles que la souche Al de Bifidobacterium brève et une augmentation de l'abondance du phyla de la flore pro-inflammatoire telle que Firmicutes et Bacteroidetes sont les altérations les plus distinctes du microbiote intestinal des patients atteints de la maladie d'Alzheimer. [0008] Furthermore, intestinal inflammation can promote cognitive deterioration and dementia. For example, a decrease in the abundance of anti-inflammatory bacterial species such as Bifidobacterium breve Al strain and an increase in the abundance of pro-inflammatory flora phyla such as Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes are the most significant alterations. distinct from the gut microbiota of patients with Alzheimer's disease.
[0009] La modulation du microbiote intestinal pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives et prévenir la démence constitue donc une approche préventive ou thérapeutique très prometteuse. Il a été démontré que les modifications alimentaires, y compris la supplémentation en prébiotiques et en probiotiques permettaient d'améliorer la composition du microbiote intestinal et ainsi agir favorablement sur les fonctions cognitives. [0009] The modulation of the intestinal microbiota to improve cognitive functions and prevent dementia therefore constitutes a very promising preventive or therapeutic approach. Dietary modifications, including prebiotic and probiotic supplementation, have been shown to improve the composition of the intestinal microbiota and thus act favorably on cognitive functions.
[0010] Les probiotiques sont des micro-organismes vivants qui confèrent un bénéfice sur la santé de l'hôte lorsqu'ils sont apportés en quantités suffisantes. L'art antérieur nous enseigne que la prise de probiotique permet d'agir efficacement sur les fonctions cognitives de l'animal (Wang H, Lee IS, Braun C, Enck P. Effect of probiotics on central nervous System functions in animais and humans: A systematic review. Vol. 22, Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility. Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility; 2016. p. 589-605). Il est également connu de l'art antérieur que l'utilisation de probiotiques d'une même espèce ou d'espèces différentes améliorait les fonctions cognitives chez des sujets atteints de troubles cognitifs légers ou de la maladie d'Alzheimer, éventuellement en diminuant l'inflammation et le stress oxydant (Deng H, et al. Efficacy of probiotics on cognition, and biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress in adults with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment-A meta- analysis of randomized controlled trials. Vol. 12, Aging. Impact Journals LLC ; 2020. p. 4010- 39 ; Akbari E, et al. Effect of probiotic supplémentation on cognitive function and metabolic status in Alzheimer's disease: A randomized, double-blind and controlled trial. Front Aging Neurosci. 2016 Nov 10;8(NOV):256; Kobayashi Y, et al. Effects of bifidobacterium breve al on the cognitive function of older adults with memory complaints: A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Benef Microbes. 2019 ; 10(5):511-20). [0010] Probiotics are live microorganisms which confer a benefit on the health of the host when they are provided in sufficient quantities. The prior art teaches us that taking a probiotic can act effectively on the cognitive functions of the animal (Wang H, Lee IS, Braun C, Enck P. Effect of probiotics on central nervous System functions in animals and humans: A systematic review (Vol. 22, Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility. Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility; 2016. pp. 589-605). It is also known from the prior art that the use of probiotics of the same species or of different species improved the cognitive functions in subjects suffering from mild cognitive disorders or Alzheimer's disease, possibly by reducing the inflammation and oxidative stress (Deng H, et al. Efficacy of probiotics on cognition, and biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress in adults with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment-A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Vol. 12, Aging. Impact Journals LLC;2020.p.4010- 39; Akbari E, et al. Effect of probiotic supplementation on cognitive function and metabolic status in Alzheimer's disease: A randomized, double-blind and controlled trial. Front Aging Neurosci. 2016 Nov 10;8(NOV):256; Kobayashi Y, et al. Effects of bifidobacterium breve al on the cognitive function of older adults with memory complaints: A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Benef Microbes. 2019; 10(5):511-20).
[0011] Il est donc déjà connu de l'art antérieur des agents nutritionnels comprenant un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium ou des probiotiques pris individuellement pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives chez l'Homme ou l'animal. [0011] It is therefore already known from the prior art of nutritional agents comprising a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium or probiotics taken individually to improve cognitive functions in humans or animals.
[0012] Or, il existe toujours un besoin pour une nouvelle solution avec une efficacité améliorée par rapport à l'art antérieur afin de prévenir et/ou traiter le déclin des fonctions cognitives dans le cadre du processus normal du vieillissement ou ralentir la progression d'une démence ou maintenir un état cognitif stable ou amélioré pour un sujet sain ne souffrant d'aucune pathologie associée au déclin cognitif. [0012] However, there is still a need for a new solution with improved efficiency compared to the prior art in order to prevent and/or treat the decline of cognitive functions as part of the normal aging process or to slow the progression of dementia or maintain a stable or improved cognitive state for a healthy subject not suffering from any pathology associated with cognitive decline.
[0013] Résumé de l'invention [0013] Summary of the Invention
[0014] Pour répondre à ce besoin, la présente invention propose une nouvelle composition comprenant au moins un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium, et au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. To meet this need, the present invention provides a new composition comprising at least one mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and Vaccinium angustifolium, and at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast.
[0015] Une telle composition n'est pas connue de l'art antérieur. Or, l'association d'un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium et d'au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique est particulièrement avantageuse. Une telle combinaison permet d'obtenir un effet synergique notamment prébiotique dû aux polyphénols pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives par rapport à un mélange dudit extrait ou d'un probiotique consommé individuellement par l'Homme ou l'animal. En outre, les polyphénols sont connus pour avoir une activité antimicrobienne. Or, de façon inattendue, l'association des polyphénols apportés de façon concomitante par des extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium ne montrent pas de tels effets sur les probiotiques de l'invention. [0015] Such a composition is not known from the prior art. However, the combination of a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium and of at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast is particularly advantageous. Such a combination makes it possible to obtain a synergistic effect in particular prebiotic due to the polyphenols to improve the cognitive functions compared to a mixture of said extract or of a probiotic consumed individually by humans or animals. Also, polyphenols are known to have antimicrobial activity. However, unexpectedly, the combination of polyphenols provided concomitantly by extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium do not show such effects on the probiotics of the invention.
[0016] A cet effet, l'invention propose une nouvelle composition nutritionnelle ou pharmaceutique comprenant : To this end, the invention provides a new nutritional or pharmaceutical composition comprising:
-au moins un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium, et -au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. -at least one mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium, and -at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast.
[0017] La bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique intégrée dans la composition selon l'invention est préférentiellement choisie parmi les bactéries et/ou levures du genre Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacillus, Streptococcus, Saccharomyces, Enterococcus, Pediococcus et Escherichia. [0017] The probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast integrated into the composition according to the invention is preferably chosen from bacteria and/or yeasts of the genus Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacillus, Streptococcus, Saccharomyces, Enterococcus, Pediococcus and Escherichia.
[0018] Une telle composition est particulièrement destinée à être administrée chez l'Homme ou l'animal en tant que médicament pour prévenir et/ou traiter des pathologies associées au déclin cognitif mais également en tant que produit nutritif pour prévenir et/ou traiter le déclin cognitif normal chez un sujet sain. [0018] Such a composition is particularly intended to be administered to humans or animals as a medicament for preventing and/or treating pathologies associated with cognitive decline, but also as a nutritional product for preventing and/or treating normal cognitive decline in a healthy subject.
[0019] Ainsi, la composition est également destinée à des sujets sains sans pathologies associées au déclin cognitif. [0019] Thus, the composition is also intended for healthy subjects without pathologies associated with cognitive decline.
[0020] Un autre objet de l'invention concerne donc une utilisation non thérapeutique de la composition selon l'invention chez l'Homme ou l'animal sain, pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives et/ou les fonctions exécutives, et/ou pour limiter le déclin cognitif normal lié à l'âge. [0021] D'autres caractéristiques et avantages ressortiront de la description détaillée de l'invention et des exemples qui vont suivre. Another object of the invention therefore relates to a non-therapeutic use of the composition according to the invention in healthy humans or animals, to improve cognitive functions and/or executive functions, and/or to limit normal age-related cognitive decline. [0021] Other characteristics and advantages will emerge from the detailed description of the invention and the examples which follow.
[0022] Description détaillée de l'invention [0023] Définition [0022] Detailed description of the invention [0023] Definition
[0024] Par « composition nutritionnelle », on entend au sens de l'invention tout mélange de composés alimentaires destiné à être ingéré par un sujet sain et comprenant un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium et au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. Les compositions nutritionnelles sont notamment des compositions alimentaires ou aliments, ou des compléments alimentaires. [0024] By "nutritional composition" is meant within the meaning of the invention any mixture of food compounds intended to be ingested by a healthy subject and comprising a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and Vaccinium angustifolium and at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast. The nutritional compositions are in particular food or food compositions, or food supplements.
[0025] Par « sujet sain », on entend au sens de l'invention un sujet qui peut être un Homme ou un animal ne souffrant d'aucune pathologie associée au déclin cognitif pathologique telle que la maladie d'Alzheimer, la maladie de Parkinson, la maladie de Huntington, les maladies du motoneurone ou la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l'âge (DMLA). [0025] By "healthy subject" is meant in the sense of the invention a subject who may be a human or an animal not suffering from any pathology associated with pathological cognitive decline such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease , Huntington's disease, motor neuron disease or age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
[0026] A l'inverse, par « sujet pathologique », on entend au sens de l'invention un sujet qui souffre ou est susceptible de souffrir de déclin cognitif pathologique telle que la maladie d'Alzheimer, la maladie de Parkinson, la maladie de Huntington, les maladies du motoneurone ou la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l'âge (DMLA). [0026] Conversely, the term "pathological subject" is understood to mean, within the meaning of the invention, a subject who suffers or is likely to suffer from pathological cognitive decline such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, of Huntington's disease, motor neuron disease or age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
[0027] Par « composition pharmaceutique », on entend au sens de l'invention toute composition comprenant au moins une substance active présentée comme possédant des propriétés curatives ou préventives à l'égard des maladies humaines ou animales utilisé seule ou associée à d'autres substances actives ou non et destiné à être ingéré par un sujet pathologique. Une telle composition comprend notamment un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium et au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. La composition pharmaceutique est donc un médicament destiné à l'Homme ou à l'animal dans la prévention et/ou le traitement du déclin cognitif pathologique telle que la maladie d'Alzheimer, la maladie de Parkinson, la maladie de Huntington, les maladies du motoneurone ou la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l'âge (DMLA). By "pharmaceutical composition" is meant within the meaning of the invention any composition comprising at least one active substance presented as having curative or preventive properties with regard to human or animal diseases used alone or combined with other active or non-active substances and intended to be ingested by a pathological subject. Such a composition comprises in particular a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium and at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast. The pharmaceutical composition is therefore a medicament intended for humans or animals in the prevention and/or treatment of pathological cognitive decline such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, motor neuron or age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
[0028] Par « un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium », on entend un ensemble de molécules obtenues à partir d'un mélange de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium préférentiellement un mélange d'au moins un extrait de Vitis vinifero et d'au moins un extrait de Vaccinium angustifolium. La matière première de Vitis vinifero peut être les feuilles et/ou les fruits et/ou les pépins et/ les bois, préférentiellement la matière première de Vitis vinifero est la partie aérienne de la plante, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble des feuilles, fruits, peau (pellicule), pépins et bois, plus préférentiellement la peau (pellicule) et les pépins. La matière première de Vaccinium angustifolium peut être les feuilles et/ou les fruits, préférentiellement la matière première de Vaccinium angustifolium est l'ensemble des feuilles et fruits de la plante. [0028] By "a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and Vaccinium angustifolium" is meant a set of molecules obtained from a mixture of Vitis vinifero and Vaccinium angustifolium, preferably a mixture of at least one extract of Vitis vinifero and at least one extract of Vaccinium angustifolium. The raw material of Vitis vinifero can be the leaves and/or the fruits and/or the pips and/the woods, preferentially the raw material of Vitis vinifero is the aerial part of the plant, that is to say the whole leaves, fruits, skin (skin), seeds and wood, more preferably the skin (skin) and seeds. The raw material of Vaccinium angustifolium can be the leaves and/or the fruits, preferentially the raw material of Vaccinium angustifolium is all the leaves and fruits of the plant.
[0029] Par « au moins X% de catéchines et/ou épicatéchines » on entend soit au moins X% de catéchines s'il n'y a pas d'épicatéchines dans le mélange, soit au moins X% d'épicatéchines s'il n'y a pas de catéchines dans le mélange, soit au moins X% du mélange de catéchines et d'épicatéchines si à la fois des catéchines et des épicatéchines sont présentes dans le mélange. Préférentiellement, on entend au moins X% du mélange de catéchines et d'épicatéchines. [0030] Par « ppm » on entend parties par million (mg/kg) dans le mélange. Sauf indication contraire, ppm se réfère à un poids par rapport au poids total du mélange. [0029] By “at least X% of catechins and/or epicatechins” is meant either at least X% of catechins if there are no epicatechins in the mixture, or at least X% of epicatechins there are no catechins in the mixture, i.e. at least X% of the mixture of catechins and epicatechins if both catechins and epicatechins are present in the mixture. Preferably, at least X% of the mixture of catechins and epicatechins is meant. By “ppm” is meant parts per million (mg/kg) in the mixture. Unless otherwise stated, ppm refers to a weight based on the total weight of the mixture.
[0031] Par « prévenir » ou « prévention » au sens de l'invention, on entend la réduction à un degré moindre du risque ou de la probabilité d'occurrence d'un phénomène donné, c'est-à- dire, dans le contexte de la présente invention, par exemple, un trouble cognitif pathologique. [0032] Par « traiter » ou « traitement » au sens de l'invention, on entend une diminution de la progression de la maladie ou du trouble, une stabilisation, une inversion ou régression, voire une interruption ou inhibition de la progression d'une maladie ou d'un trouble. Dans le contexte de l'invention, ces termes s'appliquent également sur un ou plusieurs symptômes desdites maladies ou troubles de la présente invention. [00BB] Composition [0031] By "prevent" or "prevention" within the meaning of the invention, is meant the reduction to a lesser degree of the risk or the probability of occurrence of a given phenomenon, that is to say, in the context of the present invention, for example, a pathological cognitive disorder. [0032] By "treating" or "treatment" within the meaning of the invention, is meant a reduction in the progression of the disease or disorder, a stabilization, a reversal or regression, or even an interruption or inhibition of the progression of a disease or disorder. In the context of the invention, these terms also apply to one or more symptoms of said diseases or disorders of the present invention. [00BB] Composition
[0034] L'objectif de l'invention est donc de fournir une composition présentant une efficacité améliorée dans la lutte contre le déclin cognitif. [0034] The objective of the invention is therefore to provide a composition having improved efficacy in the fight against cognitive decline.
[0035] A cet effet, la présente invention a donc pour objet une composition nutritionnelle ou pharmaceutique comprenant : To this end, the subject of the present invention is therefore a nutritional or pharmaceutical composition comprising:
-au moins un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium, et -au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique. -at least one mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium, and -at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast.
[0036] L'extrait selon l'invention peut être obtenu par tout procédé permettant d'obtenir un mélange d'extraits de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium et sera détaillé ci-après dans la présente description. The extract according to the invention can be obtained by any method making it possible to obtain a mixture of extracts of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium and will be detailed below in this description.
[0037] Préférentiellement, le mélange d'extraits comprend un mélange de molécules comprenant : [0037] Preferably, the mixture of extracts comprises a mixture of molecules comprising:
- au moins 1% de catéchines et/ou épicatéchines, le pourcentage étant donné en poids par rapport au poids total du mélange, et - at least 1% of catechins and/or epicatechins, the percentage being given by weight relative to the total weight of the mixture, and
- au moins 5 ppm d'acide férulique. - at least 5 ppm of ferulic acid.
[0038] Les catéchines et épicatéchine sont des composés de la famille des flavonoïdes, en particulier de la sous-classe des flavanols. Elles sont aussi connues sous le nom de catéchol et épicatéchol et sont de puissants antioxydants qui aident notamment à prévenir les maladies inflammatoires et coronariennes mais également à maintenir ou augmenter les performances cognitives. [0038] Catechins and epicatechins are compounds of the flavonoid family, in particular of the flavanol subclass. They are also known as catechol and epicatechol and are powerful antioxidants that help in particular to prevent inflammatory and coronary diseases but also to maintain or increase cognitive performance.
[0039] L'acide férulique est connu pour ses effets sur le système neuronal, en particulier pour protéger les cellules neuronales de la mort cellulaire induite par l'ischémie cérébrale (Cheng S.Y, et al. Ferulic acid provides neuroprotection against oxidative stress-related apoptosis after cérébral ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting ICAM-1 mRNA expression in rats. Brain Res. 2008;1209:136-150). De plus, son activité antioxydante a été testée dans la maladie d'Alzheimer (Sgarbossa A, et al. Ferulic Acid: A Hope for Alzheimer's Disease Therapy from Plants. Nutrients. 2015;7(7):5764-82.) et son administration à long terme semble protéger contre les déficits de mémoire et d'apprentissage (Yan J.Y. et al. Protection against b-amyloid peptide toxicity in vivo with long-term administration of ferulic acid. Br J Pharmacol. 2001;133:89-96.). [0039] Ferulic acid is known for its effects on the neuronal system, in particular to protect neuronal cells from cell death induced by cerebral ischemia (Cheng SY, et al. Ferulic acid provides neuroprotection against oxidative stress-related apoptosis after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting ICAM-1 mRNA expression in rats (Brain Res. 2008;1209:136-150). In addition, its antioxidant activity has been tested in Alzheimer's disease (Sgarbossa A, et al. Ferulic Acid: A Hope for Alzheimer's Disease Therapy from Plants. Nutrients. 2015;7(7):5764-82.) and its long-term administration appears to protect against memory and learning deficits (Yan JY et al. Protection against b-amyloid peptide toxicity in vivo with long-term administration of ferulic acid. Br J Pharmacol. 2001;133:89-96 .).
[0040] L'effet de la composition est particulièrement augmenté et efficace lorsqu'elle comprend également : - au moins 200 ppm de resvératrol, et/ou The effect of the composition is particularly increased and effective when it also comprises: - at least 200 ppm resveratrol, and/or
- au moins 50 ppm de quercétines et/ou glycosides de quercétine et/ou - at least 50 ppm of quercetins and/or quercetin glycosides and/or
- au moins 500 ppm d'anthocyanines. - at least 500 ppm of anthocyanins.
[0041] Le resvératrol est particulièrement connu pour être présent dans le raisin. Toutefois, il peut également être issu d'autres sources végétales, en particulier à partir du Polygonum cuspidatum mais également par voie biotechnologique. Il possède de nombreuses activités bénéfiques pour l'Homme ou l'animal parmi lesquelles une amélioration de la mémoire de travail, de l'apprentissage, de la mémoire spatiale et de l'activité motrice spontanée (Abraham J, Johnson RW. Consuming a diet supplemented with resvératrol reduced infection-related neuroinflammation and déficits in working memory in aged mice. Rejuvenation Res [Internet] 2010/01/01. 2009; 12(6) :445-53). Resveratrol is particularly known to be present in grapes. However, it can also be derived from other plant sources, in particular from Polygonum cuspidatum but also by biotechnological means. It has many beneficial activities for humans or animals, including an improvement in working memory, learning, spatial memory and spontaneous motor activity (Abraham J, Johnson RW. Consuming a diet supplemented with resveratrol reduced infection-related neuroinflammation and deficits in working memory in aged mice.Rejuvenation Res [Internet] 2010/01/01.2009;12(6):445-53).
[0042] La quercétine possède aussi une activité neuroprotectrice importante (Dajas F, et al. Neuroprotective actions of flavones and flavonols: mechanisms and relationship to flavonoid structural features. Cent Nerv Syst Agents Med Chem. 2013 ; 13(l):30-5). [0042] Quercetin also has significant neuroprotective activity (Dajas F, et al. Neuroprotective actions of flavones and flavonols: mechanisms and relationship to flavonoid structural features. Cent Nerv Syst Agents Med Chem. 2013; 13(l):30-5 ).
[0043] On sait également que la consommation d'aliments riches en anthocyanidines (aglycones et/ou glycosylées) permet de prévenir les déficiences de mémoire et d'améliorer les performances cognitives (Barros D, et al. Behavioral and genoprotective effects of Vaccinium berries intake in mice. Pharmacol Biochem Behav.2006 ; 84(2):229-34). [0043] It is also known that the consumption of foods rich in anthocyanidins (aglycones and/or glycosylated) makes it possible to prevent memory deficiencies and to improve cognitive performance (Barros D, et al. Behavioral and genoprotective effects of Vaccinium berries intake in mice.Pharmacol Biochem Behav.2006;84(2):229-34).
[0044] La composition selon l'invention comprend au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique associée au mélange d'extraits. The composition according to the invention comprises at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast combined with the mixture of extracts.
[0045] Or, de manière surprenante, la combinaison spécifique ainsi que la quantité des molécules se trouvant dans la présente composition permet d'obtenir un effet sur le déclin cognitif chez l'Homme ou l'animal, cet effet étant meilleur que celui d'un extrait de Vitis vinifera et de Vaccinium angustifolium seul ou d'au moins une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique seule. [0045] However, surprisingly, the specific combination as well as the quantity of the molecules found in the present composition makes it possible to obtain an effect on cognitive decline in humans or animals, this effect being better than that of an extract of Vitis vinifera and of Vaccinium angustifolium alone or of at least one probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast alone.
[0046] Préférentiellement, la bactérie probiotique et/ou levure probiotique peut être morte, inactivée, semi-inactivée ou vivante. [0046] Preferably, the probiotic bacterium and/or probiotic yeast can be dead, inactivated, semi-inactivated or alive.

Preferably, the bacterium is chosen from bacteria of the following species: Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp delbrueckii, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus casei Shirota, Lactobacillus curvatus, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus salivarius, Lactobacillus mucosae, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus johnsonii, Lactobacillus pentosus, Lactobacillus helveticus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium longum spp infantis, Bifidobacterium longum spp longum, Bifidobacterium animalis spp lactis, Bifidobacterium adolescentis, Bifidobacterium breve, Lactococcus lactis, Lactococcus lactis spp lactis, Streptococcus thermophilus, Streptococcus thermophiles, Clostridium butyricum, Enterococus faecalis, and mixtures thereof.
[0050] Préférentiellement, la levure est choisie parmi les levures des espèces suivantes : Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces boulardii et leur mélange. Preferably, the yeast is chosen from yeasts of the following species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces boulardii and their mixture.
[0051] Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, la composition selon l'invention apporte journalièrement entre lxlO5 et 9xl012 UFC, préférentiellement entre lxlO7 et 9x1o11 d'une bactérie probiotique et/ou levure et/ou d'un mélange. According to a particular embodiment, the composition according to the invention provides between 1×10 5 and 9×10 12 CFU daily, preferably between 1×10 7 and 9×10 11 of a probiotic bacterium and/or yeast and/or of a mixture.
[0052] La composition peut comprendre également au moins un prébiotique choisi parmi l'inuline, les oligosaccharides, FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides), GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides), CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acid), MOS (mannanoligosaccharide) et XOS (xylooligosaccharide). The composition may also comprise at least one prebiotic chosen from inulin, oligosaccharides, FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides), GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides), CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acid), MOS (mannanoligosaccharide) and XOS (xylooligosaccharide).
[0053] L'ajout de prébiotique permet de renforcer l'efficacité de la composition. Lorsqu'elles sont associées, mélangées, combinées avec un extrait de Vitis vinifera et de Vaccinium angustifolium et au moins un probiotique, la composition présente un effet amélioré dans la prévention et/ou le traitement du déclin cognitif. [0053] The addition of prebiotic makes it possible to reinforce the effectiveness of the composition. When they are associated, mixed, combined with an extract of Vitis vinifera and of Vaccinium angustifolium and at least one probiotic, the composition exhibits an improved effect in the prevention and/or treatment of cognitive decline.
[0054] Selon un autre objet, la composition peut être encapsulée ou microencapsulée, préférentiellement la composition est encapsulée ou microencapsulée dans un support alimentaire choisi parmi une maltodextrine, une gomme arabique, une huile hydrogénée ou non hydrogénée, une cire, des alginates, de l'amidon, des protéines hydrolysées ou non, de la phosphatidylcholine, des phospholipides, du galactomannane, des émulsifiants choisis parmi la pectine ou polyricinoléate de polyglycérol et des fibres choisies parmi la polydextrose, la HPMC et la cellulose. [0055] L'encapsulation est particulièrement avantageuse et permet de stabiliser et protéger l'extrait de Vitis vinifero et de Vaccinium angustifolium et/ou la ou les probiotiques (bactéries et/ou levures) de son environnement, notamment de l'organisme. According to another object, the composition can be encapsulated or microencapsulated, preferably the composition is encapsulated or microencapsulated in a food carrier chosen from maltodextrin, gum arabic, hydrogenated or non-hydrogenated oil, wax, alginates, starch, hydrolyzed or non-hydrolyzed proteins, phosphatidylcholine, phospholipids, galactomannan, emulsifiers chosen from pectin or polyglycerol polyricinoleate and fibers chosen from polydextrose, HPMC and cellulose. Encapsulation is particularly advantageous and makes it possible to stabilize and protect the extract of Vitis vinifero and of Vaccinium angustifolium and/or the probiotic(s) (bacteria and/or yeasts) from its environment, in particular from the organism.
[0056] De plus, l'encapsulation permet d'améliorer la stabilité, la biodisponibilité et l'utilisation dudit extrait dans des matrices alimentaires, avec notamment un masquage du goût et une résistance aux possibles altérations des composés pendant les étapes de production d'un produit alimentaire. [0056] In addition, encapsulation makes it possible to improve the stability, the bioavailability and the use of said extract in food matrices, with in particular masking of the taste and resistance to possible alterations of the compounds during the stages of production of a food product.
[0057] La microencapsulation procure les mêmes avantages que l'encapsulation mais permet tout particulièrement d'insérer des substances actives au sein de particules de tailles comprises entre 1 pm et 1000 pm et plus préférentiellement entre 30 pm et 500 pm et encore plus préférentiellement entre 50 pm et 300 pm. Microencapsulation provides the same advantages as encapsulation but more particularly makes it possible to insert active substances within particles of size between 1 μm and 1000 μm and more preferentially between 30 μm and 500 μm and even more preferentially between 50pm and 300pm.
[0058] La composition selon l'invention est destinée à être administrée comme produit nutritif ou thérapeutique et peut donc se présenter sous différentes formes, préférentiellement sous forme de poudre, de gélule, de comprimé, de capsule, d'une solution, d'une suspension, d'une émulsion ou d'une gomme à mâcher. The composition according to the invention is intended to be administered as a nutritional or therapeutic product and can therefore be in different forms, preferably in the form of a powder, capsule, tablet, capsule, solution, suspension, emulsion or chewing gum.
[0059] Lorsque la composition est destinée à être administrée comme produit nutritif, elle peut se présenter sous forme d'un produit alimentaire se présentant préférentiellement sous forme de produits laitiers, purées, céréales, produits céréaliers et boissons. When the composition is intended to be administered as a nutritional product, it may be in the form of a food product, preferably in the form of dairy products, purees, cereals, cereal products and beverages.
[0060] Lorsque la composition est administrée comme produit thérapeutique, l'invention se rapporte à une composition pour son utilisation en tant que médicament pour l'Homme ou l'animal. When the composition is administered as a therapeutic product, the invention relates to a composition for its use as a medicament for humans or animals.
[0061] Le déclin cognitif est caractérisé par une diminution liée à l'âge des fonctions cognitives et exécutives en particulier de la concentration, de la mémoire de travail, de la mémoire à long terme, des capacités de raisonnement, de jugement, de résolution de problèmes et de vitesse de traitement des informations. Ces déficiences peuvent conduire à une diminution de l'estime de soi et de la qualité de vie. Le déclin cognitif lié à l'âge est le terme utilisé pour décrire la forme non pathologique de la détérioration de la mémoire et des fonctions cognitives conséquentes au processus de vieillissement dans les limites normales, compte-tenu de l'âge d'une personne. Il s'agit d'un processus complexe, avec des premiers signes émergeant chez l'Homme entre 35 et 65 ans, sans lésions neurodégénératives spécifiques. Le déclin cognitif progressif est perceptible par l'apparition de problèmes cognitifs mineurs qui affectent 15 à 20% de la population âgée de 65 ans ou plus, mais qui représentent un état instable. Toutefois, certaines formes pathologiques peuvent survenir en plus de ce déclin cognitif « normal ». Parmi ces pathologies, la maladie d'Alzheimer est la cause la plus commune de démence, qui touche plus de 24 millions de personnes dans le monde. Elle est irréversible dans notre état actuel des connaissances, les seuls traitements disponibles étant purement symptomatiques. Chez les animaux, ces pathologies peuvent se présenter de manière très similaire. Chez le chien par exemple, le syndrome de dysfonctionnement cognitif (ou SDC) est une pathologie largement répandue et caractérisée par une désorientation spatio-temporelle, une perte des apprentissages élémentaires qui induit souvent de la malpropreté, une altération des cycles veille-sommeil, et une altération des interactions sociales. [0061] Cognitive decline is characterized by an age-related decrease in cognitive and executive functions, in particular concentration, working memory, long-term memory, reasoning, judgment, resolution problems and information processing speed. These deficiencies can lead to a decrease in self-esteem and quality of life. Age-related cognitive decline is the term used to describe the non-pathological form of deterioration of memory and cognitive functions consequent to the aging process within normal limits, given a person's age. It is a complex process, with the first signs emerging in humans between 35 and 65 years old, without specific neurodegenerative lesions. Progressive cognitive decline is noticeable by the appearance of minor cognitive problems which affect 15-20% of the population aged 65 or over, but which represent an unstable state. Nevertheless, certain pathological forms may occur in addition to this “normal” cognitive decline. Among these pathologies, Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, which affects more than 24 million people worldwide. It is irreversible in our current state of knowledge, the only treatments available being purely symptomatic. In animals, these pathologies can present themselves in a very similar way. In dogs, for example, the cognitive dysfunction syndrome (or CDS) is a widespread pathology characterized by spatio-temporal disorientation, a loss of elementary learning which often induces uncleanliness, an alteration of sleep-wake cycles, and impaired social interactions.
[0062] En particulier, la composition est destinée à être utilisée dans la neuroprotection, et/ou l'amélioration des fonctions cognitives et/ou de la mémoire et/ou des fonctions exécutives, et/ou l'atténuation du déclin cognitif. Ainsi, la composition selon l'invention présente des effets neuroprotecteurs et peut-être utilisée dans la prévention et/ou le traitement des pathologies associées au déclin cognitif. [0062] In particular, the composition is intended for use in neuroprotection, and/or improving cognitive functions and/or memory and/or executive functions, and/or alleviating cognitive decline. Thus, the composition according to the invention exhibits neuroprotective effects and can be used in the prevention and/or treatment of pathologies associated with cognitive decline.
[0063] Préférentiellement, la composition selon l'invention peut être utilisée dans la prévention et/ou le traitement des pathologies associées à la destruction des neurones, la diminution des fonctions cognitives, de la mémoire, des fonctions exécutives. Preferably, the composition according to the invention can be used in the prevention and/or treatment of pathologies associated with the destruction of neurons, the decrease in cognitive functions, memory, executive functions.
[0064] La composition selon l'invention est particulièrement destinée à être utilisée dans la prévention et/ou le traitement : The composition according to the invention is particularly intended for use in the prevention and/or treatment:
- des maladies neurodégénératives telles que la maladie d'Alzheimer, et/ou la maladie de Parkinson, et/ou la maladie de Huntington, et/ou les maladies du motoneurone et/ou la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l'âge (DMLA), - neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, and/or Parkinson's disease, and/or Huntington's disease, and/or motor neuron diseases and/or age-related macular degeneration (AMD),
- du déclin cognitif pathologique et/ou de la démence et/ou de la dépression et /ou de l'anxiété et/ou de la schizophrénie et/ou du retard mental et/ou du syndrome de dysfonctionnement cognitif (CDS). - pathological cognitive decline and/or dementia and/or depression and/or anxiety and/or schizophrenia and/or mental retardation and/or cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CDS).
[0065] Selon un mode particulièrement avantageux, la composition selon l'invention est délivrée à une dose permettant de fournir à l'Homme ou l'animal : According to a particularly advantageous mode, the composition according to the invention is delivered at a dose making it possible to provide humans or animals with:

- au moins 10 pg par kg de poids corporel de resvératrol, - au moins 0,2 pg par kg de poids corporel de quercétine et/ou glycosides quercétines, et - at least 10 pg per kg of body weight of resveratrol, - at least 0.2 pg per kg of body weight of quercetin and/or quercetin glycosides, and
- au moins 1 pg par kg de poids corporel d'anthocyanidines. - at least 1 pg per kg of body weight of anthocyanidins.
[0067] Selon un autre aspect, il peut s'agir aussi d'une composition nutritionnelle ou thérapeutique destinée à l'animal. On entend par « animal » tout animal pouvant recevoir une composition nutritionnelle ou thérapeutique selon l'invention, par exemple mais de manière non limitative un animal de compagnie, une volaille, un porc, un ruminant, un caprin, ou encore une souris. De manière préférentielle, l'animal est un animal de compagnie, tel que le chat ou le chien. De préférence encore, l'animal est un chien. According to another aspect, it may also be a nutritional or therapeutic composition intended for the animal. The term “animal” is understood to mean any animal that can receive a nutritional or therapeutic composition according to the invention, for example but in a non-limiting way a pet, a poultry, a pig, a ruminant, a goat, or even a mouse. Preferably, the animal is a pet, such as a cat or a dog. More preferably, the animal is a dog.
[0068] Utilisation non thérapeutique chez une personne saine [0068] Non-therapeutic use in a healthy person
[0069] Selon un autre aspect, la composition selon l'invention est également destinée à être utilisée comme produit nutritif sans aucun effet thérapeutique et chez un sujet sain. According to another aspect, the composition according to the invention is also intended to be used as a nutritive product without any therapeutic effect and in a healthy subject.
[0070] Ainsi, l'invention se rapporte également à une utilisation non thérapeutique de la composition selon l'invention chez l'Homme ou l'animal sain, pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives et/ou les fonctions exécutives, et/ou pour limiter le déclin cognitif normal lié à l'âge. [0071] De façon particulièrement préféré, l'invention se rapporte à une utilisation non thérapeutique de la composition pour améliorer la mémoire et/ou l'attention et/ou la concentration et/ou la vivacité et/ou la vigilance et/ou l'apprentissage et/ou l'intelligence et/ou le langage et/ou l'humeur et/ou le stress et/ou l'anxiété et/ou le sommeil. [0070] Thus, the invention also relates to a non-therapeutic use of the composition according to the invention in healthy humans or animals, to improve cognitive functions and/or executive functions, and/or to limit normal age-related cognitive decline. [0071] In a particularly preferred manner, the invention relates to a non-therapeutic use of the composition for improving memory and/or attention and/or concentration and/or alertness and/or alertness and/or learning and/or intelligence and/or language and/or mood and/or stress and/or anxiety and/or sleep.
[0072] La composition selon l'invention dans le cadre d'une utilisation non thérapeutique peut être préférentiellement délivrée à une quantité permettant de fournir à l'Homme ou l'animal sain : The composition according to the invention in the context of a non-therapeutic use can preferably be delivered in an amount making it possible to provide healthy humans or animals:
