Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of anti-tumor medicines, and particularly relates to a compound of (E)-6-(4-carbonylphenyl)hex-2-en-1-one, a preparation method thereof and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Protein palmitoylation is a common post-translational modification of proteins. It affects protein localization, function, signal transduction, etc. by connecting palmitoyl groups to cysteine residues of proteins through thioester bonds. Enzymes catalyzing palmitoylation all contain a highly conserved DHHC (Asp-His-His-Cys) motif, so this enzyme family is also called DHHC. There is overexpression of DHHC in most tumor cells, and DHHC inhibitors have an inhibitory effect on tumor growth. At present, only a few DHHC inhibitors such as 2-BP, CMA, cerulenin, tunicamycin, etc. have been published (Formula II). There are not only few in number, but also problems such as low activity and poor specificity.

[0003]

[0004] α,β-unsaturated carbonyl is one of the most common warheads of covalent drugs. It acts by targeting cysteine residues in proteins. When the drug interacts with the protein, the sulfhydryl group in cysteine first attacks the β-carbon of the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl, and then Michael addition occurs to form a covalent bond. α,β-unsaturated carbonyl not only has high reactivity with cysteine, but also can be modified by introducing substituents at both ends to adjust its reactivity. However, there are no DHHC inhibitors with related structures used in clinical anti-tumor. Summary of the Invention

[0098] Example 3 Determination of the anti-proliferative activity of the compounds of the present invention against cancer cells

[0099] 1. Experimental materials

[0100] The target compound and positive controls 2-BP and cisplatin, trypsin digestion solution, PBS buffer, fetal bovine serum, human breast cancer cell line MCF-7, human colon cancer cell line HCT116, mouse colon cancer cell line MC38, mouse hepatoma cell line Hepa1-6, microplate reader and 96-well plates, high-glucose DMEM medium and RPMI 1640 medium, 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reagent, etc.

[0101] 2. Experimental method

[0102] The antitumor activities of the compounds against MCF-7, HCT116, MC38, and Hepa1-6 cells were detected by the MTT method. First, the cells were diluted to 4×10 4 cells / mL, and then seeded into 96-well plates, with 100 μL of the diluted cells added to each well. After incubation for 24 h, drugs at different concentrations were added to the wells. Three parallel groups were set for each concentration. After incubation at 37 °C for 48 h, MTT reagent (10 μL, 5 mg / mL) was added to each well of the culture plate (containing 100 μL of medium), and after further incubation for 3 h, the supernatant was aspirated with a syringe, 100 μL of DMSO was added to each well, and finally the absorbance was read at 570 nm using a Bio-Tek microplate reader.

[0103] The inhibition rate of the compound against the cells was calculated as follows:

[0104] Inhibition rate = (1 - A / A0) × 100%;

[0105] where A is the absorbance value measured after cell administration, and A0 is the absorbance value measured in the negative control.

[0106] Analysis was performed using the software GraphPad Prism 8.0.1. The logarithm of the sample concentration was linearly regressed against the cell inhibition rate, and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC 50 value (mean ± standard deviation) of the compound against each cell was calculated. The lower the half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC 50 value, the stronger the inhibitory ability of the compound against cancer cells. The detection results are shown in Tables 3 and 4.

[0112] The experimental results showed that the series of compounds synthesized in this invention had good anti-proliferative activities against MCF-7 and HCT116 cells, and some compounds exhibited better anti-proliferative activities than the positive control.

[0113] Example 4 Determination of the inhibitory ability of the compounds of the present invention against DHHC activity

[0114] 1. Experimental materials

[0115] Target compounds, positive control 2-BP, dodecyl-β-D-maltoside (DDM) solution, palmitoyl-CoA solution, FAM-Kras4a solution, MES buffer, TCEP solution, DHHC protein, etc.

[0116] 2. Experimental methods

[0117] The inhibitory activity of the compound against DHHC enzyme was determined by the change in fluorescence anisotropy caused by the level of palmitoylation of the fluorescent substrate. First, 600 μL of DDM solution (2.5 mM), 120 μL of MES buffer (500 mM), 20 μL of TCEP solution (30 mM), and 6 μL of DHHC protein (3.5 mM) were mixed to prepare buffer A, and 100 μL of DDM solution (2.5 mM), 16.5 μL of palmitoyl-CoA solution (1.5 mM), and 25 μL of FAM-Kras4a solution (0.5 mM) were mixed to prepare buffer B. Then, 13.5 μL of buffer A and 6.5 μL of buffer B were added to each well of a 384-well plate, different concentrations of the drug were added to each well, and then incubated in the dark for 30 min. After the incubation, the detection was immediately carried out using a microplate reader.

[0118] The inhibition rate of the compound on cells was calculated as follows:

[0119] Inhibition rate = (1 - B0 / B) × 100%;

[0120] where B0 is the fluorescence anisotropy value measured for the negative control, and B is the fluorescence anisotropy value measured after drug administration.

[0121] Analysis was performed using the software GraphPad Prism 8.0.1. The logarithm of the sample concentration was linearly regressed with the protein inhibition rate, and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC50 value (mean ± standard deviation) of some compounds against DHHC protein was calculated. The lower the half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC 50 value, the stronger the inhibitory ability of the compound against DHHC protein. The detection results are shown in Table 4.

[0122] The experimental results show that the series of compounds synthesized in the present invention have good enzyme inhibitory activity against DHHC protein, and some compounds exhibit better enzyme inhibitory activity than the positive control.
