Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the use of a compound in the preparation of a drug for treating and / or preventing stroke, and specifically relates to the use of 2,3-dihydronaphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione in the preparation of a drug for treating and / or preventing stroke. Background Art

[0002] Stroke, also known as apoplexy, is a type of acute cerebrovascular disease caused by abnormal blood vessels in the brain, resulting in brain tissue damage, and is characterized by high incidence, high recurrence rate, high disability rate, and high mortality rate. Stroke is mainly divided into ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Among them, acute ischemic stroke (commonly known as cerebral infarction) is the most common clinical stroke type, accounting for about 62.4% of the total number of stroke patients. It is analyzed that the globally age-standardized incidence of ischemic stroke is expected to increase to 89.32 / 100,000 people by 2030 (Pu L, et al. Stroke. 2023, 54: 1330-1339).

[0003] Ischemic stroke is caused by various reasons such as cerebrovascular occlusion or stenosis, resulting in obstruction or reduction of local cerebral blood supply, and ischemia and hypoxia cause necrosis of related brain tissue (cerebral infarction). Patients will have long-term neurological deficits or even death. Its acute phase generally refers to within 1 week after the onset of mild cases and within 1 month after the onset of severe cases. The primary clinical treatment principle of acute ischemic stroke is to restore cerebral blood flow as soon as possible to achieve reperfusion, so that the ischemic brain tissue can regain the supply of oxygen, blood sugar, etc.

[0004] However, after cerebral ischemia and cerebral blood flow reperfusion, various forms of delayed death occur in nerve cells, cerebral microvascular endothelial cells, etc., leading to a progressive increase in pathological changes such as cerebral infarction volume and cerebral edema. Cerebral tissue infarction is the main pathological change after acute ischemic stroke, which will aggravate the neurological damage of patients, and survivors will have long-term sensory and motor function disorders and neuropsychiatric abnormalities (Sarraj A, et al. Stroke. 2021, 52: 838-849). Cerebral edema is another main pathological change after acute ischemic stroke and is an independent predictor of the mortality of stroke patients. Therefore, it is urgent to develop safe and effective therapeutic drugs to improve acute brain injury after stroke and reperfusion brain injury after stroke. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Principle of the invention: The compound 2,3-dihydronaphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione of formula I in this application can inhibit the programmed necrosis of nerve cells after oxygen-glucose deprivation, and can be used as a drug targeting programmed necrosis, overcoming problems such as easy drug resistance of a single molecular target. It has a strong therapeutic effect on ischemic stroke, significantly reduces the brain damage caused by acute ischemic stroke, improves the neurological deficit after stroke, and brings a strong brain protection effect.

[0024] Specifically, after cerebral ischemia, neurons undergo various forms of death, including irreversible necrosis and regulated cell death (such as programmed necrosis, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis, etc.), which cause progressive aggravation of cerebral infarction and brain edema, leading to long-term neurological deficits. And neuronal programmed necrosis occurs in the early stage of cerebral ischemia / reperfusion. The compound 2,3-dihydronaphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione can timely inhibit this type of regulated cell death and effectively block the pathological process after stroke.

Solvent, CPU-hl02 (5, 10 mg / kg), or edaravone (5 mg / kg) was intraperitoneally injected 30 min after acute ischemic stroke / reperfusion, and then injected once a day for a total of three days.

[0070] 5. Experimental Methods

[0071] Establishment of mouse cerebral ischemia model:

[0072] An acute ischemic stroke model in mice was established by the middle cerebral artery occlusion method. The mice were anesthetized with isoflurane (induced with 3% isoflurane and maintained with 1%-1.5% isoflurane), then fixed in the supine position. A midline incision was made in the neck, and the right common carotid artery, internal carotid artery, and external carotid artery were separated one by one. The proximal end of the common carotid artery and the external carotid artery were ligated with threads respectively. The internal carotid artery was clamped with an artery clip. A small incision was made in the external carotid artery, and the thread embolism was carefully inserted. The artery clip on the internal carotid artery was removed, and the thread embolism was carefully delivered into the internal carotid artery to block the blood flow of the middle cerebral artery. After 60 minutes of ischemia, the thread embolism was removed to achieve reperfusion. During the operation, a laser speckle flow imaging system was used to monitor the changes in cerebral blood flow in mice. The body temperature of the mice was maintained at 37.0±0.5°C.

[0073] Detection of cerebral infarction by TTC staining:

[0074] At 72 hours after reperfusion following cerebral ischemia, the mice were sacrificed and the brain tissues were taken to make coronal sections with a thickness of 1 mm. The brain sections were transferred to a TTC solution (2%) for staining for 10 minutes (at a constant temperature of 37°C, protected from light), and then fixed with paraformaldehyde (4%) for 24 hours. The normal brain tissues on the contralateral side without ischemia showed red, and the white parts on the ischemic side were the infarction areas. The ImageJ (1.54f) image analysis software was used to calculate the cerebral infarction volume. Cerebral infarction volume (%) = (total volume of normal brain tissues on the contralateral side - volume of non-infarcted brain tissues on the ischemic side) / (2 × total volume of normal brain tissues on the contralateral side) × 100%.

[0075] Detection of brain edema by the brain water content analysis method:

[0076] The brain water content analysis method was used to detect brain edema. At 72 hours after ischemia-reperfusion, the left and right hemisphere tissues of the mice brains were taken respectively, the surface moisture was blotted, and the wet weight was measured. Then the tissues were placed in an oven at 110°C for 24 hours until constant weight, taken out and immediately weighed for dry weight, and the brain water content was calculated. Brain water content (%) = (wet weight - dry weight) / wet weight × 100%.

[0077] Modified neurological severity score (mNSS):

[0078] The mNSS was used to evaluate the degree of nerve function impairment such as movement, sensation, and balance in mice. The mNSS score range was 0-18 points, among which severe impairment was 13-18 points, moderate impairment was 7-12 points, and mild impairment was 1-6 points.

[0079] Data statistics:

[0080] Graphpad Prism software (8.0.2) was used to perform statistical analysis on the data. Measurement data were expressed as mean

[0081] ± standard deviation. One-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA with

[0082] Bonferroni post-hoc analysis). P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0083] Mice were intraperitoneally injected with solvent, CPU-hl02 (5, 10 mg / kg), or intravenously injected with the positive control drug edaravone (5 mg / kg) 30 min after ischemia-reperfusion, once a day for three consecutive days. Brain tissue sections were collected 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (n = 8, 7, 7, 6). *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001, one-way ANOVA.

[0084] As Figure 1 shown, it is the result graph of CPU-hl02 reducing the cerebral infarction lesions in mice with acute ischemic stroke in Example 3. The TTC staining results showed that compared with the solvent control group, the cerebral infarction volumes of the low-dose treatment group (5 mg / kg / d) and high-dose treatment group (10 mg / kg / d) of CPU-hl02 in mice were significantly reduced, and the differences were statistically significant ( *** P < 0.001; **** P < 0.0001); the cerebral infarction volume of the high-dose group of CPU-hl02 was lower than that of the edaravone positive control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( **** P < 0.0001), and the results indicate that the compound CPU-hl02 can effectively reduce the cerebral infarction volume after acute ischemic stroke.

[0085] Mice were intraperitoneally injected with solvent, CPU-hl02 (5, 10 mg / kg), or intravenously injected with edaravone (5 mg / kg) 30 min after ischemia-reperfusion, once a day for three consecutive days. The water content of brain tissue was detected 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (n = 8, 7, 7, 6). # P < 0.05, #### P < 0.0001 compared with the contralateral side, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001 compared with the ischemic side of the solvent control group, ns indicates no statistically significant difference, one-way ANOVA.

[0086] As Figure 2 shown, it is the result graph of CPU-hl02 reducing the brain edema lesions in mice with acute ischemic stroke in Example 3. 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion, the water content of the ischemic side brain tissue of the solvent control group mice was significantly higher than that of the normal brain tissue on the contralateral side ( ####P < 0.0001); The cerebral water content on the ischemic side of the high-dose treatment group of CPU-hl02 (10 mg / kg / d) and the edaravone positive control group was significantly lower than that on the ischemic side of the solvent control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( **** P < 0.0001; *** P < 0.001), and it was still slightly higher than the water content of the normal brain tissue on the contralateral side of each group ( # P < 0.05; #### P < 0.0001). The results showed that CPU-hl02 effectively reduced cerebral edema after acute ischemic stroke.

[0087] Mice were intraperitoneally injected with solvent, CPU-hl02 (5, 10 mg / kg), or intravenously injected with edaravone (5 mg / kg) at 30 min after ischemia-reperfusion, once a day for three consecutive days, and neurological deficit scores were performed 72 h after ischemia-reperfusion. The data were mean ± standard deviation (n = 8, 7, 7, 6). ** P < 0.01, **** P < 0.0001, one-way ANOVA.

[0088] As Figure 3 shown, it is the result graph of the improvement of neurological deficit in mice with acute ischemic stroke by CPU-hl02 in Example 3. The mNSS score showed that compared with the solvent control group, the neurological deficit scores of the low-dose treatment group of CPU-hl02 (5 mg / kg / d) and the high-dose treatment group of CPU-hl02 (10 mg / kg / d) were significantly reduced, and the differences were statistically significant ( ** P < 0.01; **** P < 0.0001); The effect of the high-dose group of CPU-hl02 on improving neurological function was similar to that of the edaravone positive control group. The results showed that CPU-hl02 improved neurological function after acute ischemic stroke.

[0089] Therefore, the 2,3-dihydronaphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione compound of the present invention is applied to the preparation of drugs for treating and / or preventing stroke, such as anti-acute ischemic stroke drugs, which can effectively reduce acute brain injury, such as brain injury after acute ischemic stroke, and treat or improve neurological function.
