Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to a drug for treating tumors, and specifically to the application of XIAP E3 ligase as a tumor treatment target and its targeting compound, belonging to the field of biochemical medicine technology. Background Art
[0002] X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) is a major member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family. It contains three N-terminal BIR repeat domains and a C-terminal RING domain. XIAP is widely implicated in numerous physiological and pathological processes, including cell survival, immune regulation, and apoptosis. The XIAP gene is overexpressed in various tumor cell types, including breast cancer, glioblastoma, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, renal cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, metastatic melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, esophageal cancer, acute and chronic leukemias, and other malignancies. XIAP expression is closely correlated with tumor invasion and metastasis. Therefore, XIAP is widely used as a target for drug development in various tumors and immune diseases. Early research on XIAP inhibitors focused primarily on the BIR domain of XIAP, and several apoptosis-inducing tumor therapeutics targeting the BIR domain of XIAP have been developed. However, since the BIR domain plays an important role in maintaining normal cell function, and these tumor therapeutic drugs target the BIR domain of XIAP while also targeting the BIR domain of other IAPs (such as cIAP1 and cIAP2), resulting in significant side effects, other research methods are urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The inventors have discovered that a binding site at the C-terminus of XIAP (particularly the RING domain) that alters E3 ligase activity is an important target for screening anti-tumor or autoimmune disease treatment drugs. Based on this target, multiple compounds with anti-tumor effects have been screened and further functionally validated (see Tables 1, 2, and 8). In this application, anti-tumor effects include not only inhibiting the growth of various tumors, such as bladder cancer, muscle-invasive bladder cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, gastric cancer, gastric adenocarcinoma, melanoma, and renal cancer, but also inhibiting the metastasis (such as lung metastasis of bladder cancer cells) and invasion of these tumors. Therefore, this application first provides the use of the C-terminus of XIAP, the RING domain of XIAP, a fragment of XIAP with E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, an amino acid site of XIAP corresponding to the 467H site of human XIAP, or any binding site of the RING domain of XIAP that, when bound, alters E3 ligase activity as a target in the preparation of a drug for treating tumors. Examples of targets include one or more of positions 440, 444, 446, 447, 448, 449, 451, 454, 457, 458, 467, 468, 469, 483, 494, 495, 496, or 497 of human XIAP, and all compounds of the present application are obtained based on these targets. Secondly, the present application also provides the use of inhibitors (such as compounds or formulations) that inhibit the E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of XIAP in the preparation of medicaments for treating tumors. These inhibitors are, for example, all compounds of the present application, including compounds of the general formula, specific compounds, or one or more combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the inhibitor is a substance that binds to the C-terminus of XIAP, or to the RING domain of XIAP, or to an amino acid site of XIAP corresponding to the 467H site of human XIAP, or to the RING domain of human XIAP, thereby inhibiting the E3 ligase activity. In some embodiments, these inhibitors can be used in combination with additional therapeutic agents. In some embodiments, these inhibitors can be in any suitable dosage form or administered in any suitable manner, such as the specific dosage forms and specific modes of administration mentioned in this application. In some embodiments, the tumor can be any tumor defined in the art, such as the specific tumor or cancer type mentioned in this application. In some embodiments, the drug is any pharmaceutical form defined in the art, such as the pharmaceutical composition mentioned in this application, or all compounds of this application, including general compounds, specific compounds, or one or more combinations thereof, together with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, diluents, carriers, and / or excipients.

[0243] Example 1 Screening of small molecule drugs targeting the XIAP RING domain
[0244] The Site Finder module of MOE software (version 2022) was used to analyze the possible binding sites on the surface of human XIAP protein (PDBID: 4IC2, 4IC3 and 5O6T), and the binding pockets predicted by the co-crystal structure near amino acids 467 and 495 in 4IC3 were found: Site 1 (LEU444 GLU446 GLU447 LYS448 LEU449 LYS451 MET454ASN457ILE458 HIS467 LEU468 VAL469 MET483 ILE494 MET496) and Site 2: (LEU444GLU447 LYS448LEU468 LEU495 MET496 SER497). Among them, the PLB of Site1 is>1, so the Site1 site of the cocrystal structure 4IC3 was selected for virtual screening, and the XIAP protein sequence reference Uniprot ID: P98170. This application selected a TargetMol compound library containing 36,861 biologically active compounds and a Chemdiv compound library containing 1,583,358 structurally diverse compounds as screening databases, including a total of 1.62 million molecules. Affinity, druggability properties, structural diversity and binding specificity were used as screening indicators to select compounds that can directly interact with the XIAP RING domain (E3 ligase). Among them, the high-frequency interaction amino acid sites near amino acid 467 and amino acid 495 (key sites for E3 ligase activity) are Asn457, Ile458, Lys448, Met496 and Ser497 (see Figure 26-Figure 27 ), for example, amino acid Ile458 participated in the interaction patterns of 68 compounds. Ultimately, 65 compounds with relatively strong affinity scores, good druggability properties, and strong binding specificity (e.g., Compound 1 had an affinity score of -8.40 kcal / mol for XIAP E3 ligase) were screened for subsequent biological activity testing. When those skilled in the art need to use methods similar to those of the present application to screen for XIAP inhibitors from human XIAP with other amino acid sequences or from XIAP from organisms other than humans, they can screen for amino acid sites corresponding to the aforementioned human XIAP protein without inventive steps, for example, H467 of human XIAP corresponds to H466 of mouse XIAP.

[0260] 1.1.2 Detection of targeting specificity and ability to inhibit cancer cell invasion of small molecule compounds
[0261] Reported direct substrate proteins of XIAP E3 ligase include p62, Bcl-2, PTEN and DNMT3B discovered in the team's previous studies. The compounds obtained in the above preliminary screening were applied to T24T cancer cells at a concentration verified to be safe and non-cytotoxic by CCk8 experiments for 24 hours, and the proteins were collected. By immunoblotting (Western blotting), the changes in DNMT3B and other reported direct substrate proteins of XIAP E3 ligase after the action of the compounds, as well as the changes in marker proteins related to cell invasion (such as MMP2, MMP9 and N-cadherin) were detected, and compounds with consistent upregulation of substrate proteins and consistent decrease in invasion-related protein indicators were screened out. We finally screened out lead small molecule compounds targeting the active site of XIAP RING domain E3 ubiquitin ligase with potential anti-tumor activity, including compound 1 and compound 2 (see Figure 1Western blot experiments in human bladder cancer T24T cells following treatment with candidate compounds examined protein changes in DNMT3B and other reported direct substrates of the XIAPE3 ligase, as well as changes in marker proteins associated with cell invasion. Compounds 1 and 2 consistently upregulated substrate protein expression and decreased invasion-related protein expression.
[0262] Given that cell invasion is a key characteristic of cancer progression, and cancer cell metastasis is a major lethal factor in bladder tumors, the search for small molecule compounds with significant inhibitory effects on tumor cell invasion and metastasis is a key focus of this research. The team previously successfully established a stable XIAP knockout cell line, T24T (KOXIAP), and a control cell line, T24T (vector). Furthermore, they constructed corresponding cell models, T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP) and T24T (KOXIAP / H467A), by transfecting the XIAP knockout cells with an HA-tagged XIAP plasmid and an HA-tagged XIAP RING H467 mutant plasmid. Transwell assays were then used to examine the effects of these compounds on the migration and invasion abilities of T24T (vector), T24T (KOXIAP), T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP), and T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) cells. 5% FBS medium containing the test compound was added to the lower chamber, and cells were diluted with 0.1% FBS medium containing the same concentration of compound to form a uniform single-cell suspension (20,000 cells / well) and added to the upper chamber for 24 hours. Medium containing the corresponding DMSO working concentration was used as a control. Figure 2 The results of the migration and invasion of T24T cells under the action of small molecule inhibitors are shown. (A&F) Photos of the migration and invasion abilities of T24T (vector), T24T (KOXIAP), T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP), and T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) cells under the action of DMSO and two small molecule inhibitors (1, 2) were detected by Transwell assay; (B&G) Histograms of the migration abilities corresponding to panels A and F; (C&H) Histograms of the invasion abilities corresponding to panels A and F; The histograms represent the mean ± standard deviation of the counts from five independent fields of view.
[0263] (D) Photographs showing the migration and invasion abilities of T24T cells in the presence of DMSO and small molecule inhibitor A at different concentrations as assessed by a Transwell assay. (E) Line graph of the corresponding migration and invasion abilities in Figure D. Asterisks (*) indicate statistically significant results compared with the control group (P < 0.05).
[0264] It can be seen that when compound 1 and compound 2 were treated at concentrations of 0.5μM and 2μM, respectively, the invasive ability of T24T (Vector) cells and T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP) cells was significantly reduced compared with the cells in the DMSO-treated group at the same dose, indicating that the compound can effectively inhibit cell invasion. At the same time, T24T (KOXIAP) cells and T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) cells did not show significant inhibition of cell invasion under the same grouping treatment. In addition, compound 1 was used in a concentration gradient (0.0625μM, 0.125μM, 0.25μM, 0.5μM) to act on T24T cells, showing that the cell invasion ability was concentration-dependent. The results suggest that the compound inhibits the invasive ability of bladder cancer cells by specifically targeting and inhibiting the E3 ubiquitin ligase site of XIAP.

[0266] 1.2.1 In vivo testing of antitumor activity of small molecule compounds
[0267] 1.2.1.1 Detection of the antitumor activity of small molecule compounds against primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice
[0268] Wild-type mice aged 5 to 6 weeks were randomly divided into three groups of 10 mice each: a vehicle control group, a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN, and a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN plus the small molecule compound to be tested (100 mg / kg / day). Physiological parameters (such as body weight and respiratory rate) were monitored every three days after drug administration, and the mice were closely observed. After drug treatment, the mice were sacrificed, and the bladders were removed for observation of bladder changes, bladder weight measurement, and calculation of the bladder / mouse weight ratio. The bladders were then divided into two parts: one part was used for pathological staining analysis such as H&E and immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the other part was frozen for future RNA and protein analysis.
[0269] To evaluate the therapeutic effects of targeted small molecule compounds on primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
[0270] Experiment 1 involved 5-6-week-old wild-type C57 / B6 male mice randomly divided into three groups (n=5 per group): ① a control group receiving drinking water containing vehicle fluid, ② a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN, and ③ a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN plus a small molecule compound. Group ① received drinking water containing vehicle fluid until 25 weeks, group ② received drinking water containing 0.05% BBN until 25 weeks, and group ③, after 16 weeks of BBN exposure, received drinking water containing BBN plus the test small molecule compound (100 mg / kg / day) until 25 weeks. Both the BBN drinking water and the test small molecule compound were replaced every other day. After treatment, mice were sacrificed, and their bladders were removed. Bladder morphology and volume changes were observed, and bladder weight was measured. The bladder / mouse weight ratio was calculated. Figure 3 Figures show the inhibitory effect of candidate small molecule compound 1 on primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice. (AD) Comparison of mouse bladder tissue morphology (A), tumor weight (B), tumor size to mouse weight ratio (C), and mouse weight (D) in the drinking water control group, the drinking water containing 0.05% BBN, and the drinking water containing 0.05% BBN plus small molecule compound 1 groups. (E) HE staining observed the inhibitory effect of small molecule compound 1 on the pathological changes of BMIBC induced by BBN exposure.
[0271] The results showed that 80% (4 / 5) of the mice in Group ② developed basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer. In Group ③, when treated with Compound 1 at a dose of 100 mg / kg / day, there were no significant differences in bladder morphology, volume, or bladder / mouse weight ratio compared to Group ①, and BBN-induced weight loss in mice was also alleviated. HE staining showed that BBN induced BMIBC pathological changes, while Compound 1 significantly alleviated BMIBC pathological damage after intervention. These results indicate that Compound 1 has a significant therapeutic effect on BBN-induced primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice.
[0272] Experiment 2 specifically involved 5-6 week old wild-type C57 / B6 male mice randomly divided into three groups, each with 10 mice: ① a control group receiving drinking water containing vehicle, ② a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN, and ③ a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN plus drug. Group ① received drinking water containing vehicle for 25 weeks, group ② received drinking water containing 0.05% BBN for 25 weeks, and group ③, after 5 weeks of BBN exposure, received drinking water containing BBN plus compound 1 (Com1, 100 mg / kg / day) for 25 weeks. Both BBN drinking water and Com1 were changed every other day. Results are shown in the table. Figure 4 .
[0273] The results showed that compound 1 in group ③, at a dose of 100 mg / kg / day, significantly inhibited bladder morphology, volume, and bladder / mouse weight ratio in mice compared to group ①, suggesting that compound 1 significantly inhibited the development of BMIBC. These results demonstrate that compound 1 can effectively inhibit the development and progression of primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice.
[0274] Experiment 3 involved 5-6 week-old wild-type C57 / B6 male mice randomly divided into three groups, each containing five mice: ① a control group receiving vehicle-containing drinking water, ② a group receiving drinking water containing 0.05% BBN, and ③ a group receiving 0.05% BBN drinking water plus drug. Group ① received vehicle-containing drinking water until 25 weeks, group ② received 0.05% BBN drinking water until 25 weeks, and group ③, after 17 weeks of BBN exposure, received BBN-containing drinking water plus Compound 2 (Com2 100 mg / kg / day) until 25 weeks. Both BBN drinking water and Com2 were replaced every other day.
[0275] The results showed (see Figure 6 ) demonstrated the efficacy of Compound 2 in a BBN-induced mouse model of primary basal muscle-invasive bladder cancer. In Group ③, at a dose of 100 mg / kg / day, Compound 2 reduced bladder morphology, volume, and bladder / mouse weight ratio compared to Group ②, demonstrating improvement in BBN-induced BMIBC in mice. These results demonstrate the therapeutic activity of Compound 2 against BBN-induced primary basal muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice.
[0276] 1.2.1.2 Detection of the inhibitory effect of small molecule compounds on subcutaneous tumor formation of BMIBC cells in nude mice
[0277] 3-4 week old BALB / C-nu nude mice were selected. T24T bladder cancer cells were amplified, digested with trypsin, counted, and resuspended in PBS to adjust the cell density to 2×10 7 / ml. 100μl of cell suspension was drawn up using a 1ml sterile syringe and inoculated subcutaneously into nude mice, generally within half an hour. During the inoculation, the cell suspension was placed on ice to reduce cell metabolism and maintain cell activity. The mice were randomly divided into four groups (nine per group): ① a vehicle control group; ② a group receiving intraperitoneal injection of 10mg / kg compound 1; ③ a group receiving 40mg / kg compound 1 via drinking water; and ④ a group receiving intraperitoneal injection of 10mg / kg compound 1 after 5 days of subcutaneous injection of tumor cells, when significant tumor growth was observed. After 4 weeks of drug treatment, the mice were sacrificed and the changes in subcutaneous tumors were observed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of the small molecule compound on subcutaneous tumor formation of BMIBC cells in nude mice.
[0278] The results showed (see Figure 5): Compared with the control group, the weight and size of the subcutaneous tumors in nude mice treated with compound 1 were significantly reduced, indicating that compound 1 has a good inhibitory effect and therapeutic effect on the subcutaneous tumor formation of BMIBC cells in nude mice.
[0279] 1.2.1.3 Detecting the Antitumor Activity of Small Molecule Compounds in Mice Using a Human PDX Model
[0280] Fresh tumor tissue samples from bladder cancer patients are removed, the capsule and necrotic tissue removed, washed three times with sterile PBS, and cut into fragments approximately 2-3 mm in diameter on a sterile dish. A small incision is made in 4-8 week old nude mice to locate the kidney. Using forceps, the tumor tissue sample is inserted into the tip of a custom-made trocar and transplanted beneath the mouse's renal capsule. Three to four nude mice are inoculated with each tumor, and this inoculation must be completed within 2 hours of tumor removal. This model retains the microenvironment and basic cellular characteristics of the primary tumor, forming the first generation of xenografts (F1). Once the xenografts reach a certain size, the xenografts are removed and aseptically transplanted into a new batch of mice, forming the second generation of xenografts (F2). This procedure is repeated to form the third generation (F3), fourth generation (F4), and so on. F3 and higher generation mice can be used for drug therapy studies.
[0281] F4 generation xenografts were implanted into 40 BALB / C-nu nude mice to establish a bladder cancer PDX model for drug efficacy evaluation. After 18 days of normal maintenance, tumor formation was assessed by CT. Tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into four groups: a vehicle control group and a group treated with the small molecule compound to be tested. Three dose groups were set: 50 mg / kg / day, 100 mg / kg / day, and 200 mg / kg / day. Drugs were administered by gavage for 30 days. Physiological parameters (such as body weight, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and biochemical parameters (such as blood glucose, lipid profile, and liver function) were monitored every three days after drug administration, and the mice were closely observed. After drug treatment, the mice were sacrificed, bladder changes were observed, bladder weights were measured, and the bladder / mouse weight ratio was calculated. The mice were then divided into two parts: one was used for pathological analysis using H&E and immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the other was frozen for future RNA and protein analysis. This was done to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the small molecule compound on bladder cancer PDX.
[0282] Example 3 Screening and identification of small molecule compounds with anti-tumor spectrum
[0283] Based on the fact that XIAP is overexpressed in a variety of epithelial tumors and may play an important biological function, we plan to use the screened small molecule inhibitors targeting human XIAP E3 ligase with anti-bladder cancer activity in different tumor cells to test whether they have the same anti-tumor activity against other tumors with high XIAP expression. Figure 7), XIAP expression in tumors such as breast cancer, colorectal cancer and lung adenocarcinoma is significantly higher than that in normal tissues. The corresponding tumor cells have been collected, and the active small molecule compounds that have been screened are intended to act on each tumor cell to detect their anti-tumor activity.
[0284] Experiment 1: Compound 1 obtained in the initial screening was subjected to a concentration gradient to act on AGS (human gastric adenocarcinoma cells), HGC-27 gastric cancer cells, U2-OS human osteosarcoma cells and MB-231 breast cancer cells for 24 h, and the protein was collected. Figure 8 Western blot analysis of candidate small molecule inhibitor 1 in different tumor cells was performed. Changes in proteins of reported direct substrates of the XIAP E3 ligase and markers of cell invasion were detected. (A & B) Compound 1 treatment of gastric cancer cells AGS and HGC-27 showed upregulation of substrate proteins and decreased invasion markers. (C) Compound 1 treatment of human osteosarcoma cells U2-OS showed upregulation of substrate proteins and decreased invasion markers. (D) Compound 1 treatment of breast cancer cells MB-231 showed upregulation of substrate proteins and decreased invasion markers.
[0285] Western blotting results showed that the expression of DNMT3B and other reported direct substrate proteins of XIAP E3 ligase increased after the action of the compound, and the expression of marker proteins related to cell invasion (such as MMP2 and MMP9) was significantly decreased.
[0286] Experiment 2: Prepare 1.25% agarose solution and BME cell culture medium (2X). Mix 42°C preheated culture medium with 1.25% agarose solution in a 3:2 ratio. Add the solution to a six-well plate (3 mL / well) as quickly as possible, taking care not to create bubbles when plating. Allow the solution to solidify at room temperature for approximately 2 hours. Count the prepared cells and add 8,000 cells per well to the prepared culture medium. Add 1.25% agarose solution proportionally to the cell suspension in the culture medium. Pipette thoroughly to mix thoroughly, then immediately add the solution to the corresponding lower gel layer. Take care not to create bubbles when plating. Allow the solution to solidify at room temperature for approximately 2 hours. Once solidified, seal the plate with parafilm and incubate in a 37°C cell culture incubator. Observe cell colony formation regularly during this period. After approximately 2-4 weeks, photograph and analyze the colony formation rate using a microscope.
[0287] The above results show that under the action of compound 1 and its modified compounds, the malignant proliferation ability of human melanoma cells (A375), lung cancer cells (HCC827) and prostate cancer cells (PC-3) was inhibited (see Figure 9 , Figure 10 ).
[0288] Example 4 Effects of small molecule compounds on cell metastasis and invasion
[0289] Referring to the method of Example 2, the effects of compounds 1, X-6, X-10, X-20, and Y-9-3 on the migration and invasion abilities of T24T cells were determined. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 11 The effects of compounds B6, B8, B9, B10, C1-4, C5-2-2, C1-5, Y-9-2, 940532-51-4, and 714278-58-7 on the migration and invasion abilities of T24T cells were determined. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 25 shown.
[0290] Example 5 The XIAP RING domain plays a crucial role in the development and progression of BBN-induced basal muscle-invasive bladder cancer (BMIBC)
[0291] BBN (N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine) is an environmental chemical carcinogen that can induce invasive bladder cancer in mice and is widely used in bladder cancer research. Adding 0.05%-0.1% (v / v) BBN to the drinking water of mice causes abnormal proliferation of the urothelium to develop invasive bladder cancer with squamous differentiation after approximately 15 weeks. This model closely resembles the development and histological changes of human muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Given that BBN can induce primary basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in the majority of exposed mice, we applied this mouse model to investigate mice lacking the RING domain of XIAP (△RING knock-in). Our results revealed that the RING domain, rather than the BIR domain, mediates the development and progression of BBN-induced primary BMIBC. Figure 12 (A) Comparison of basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in BBN-induced XIAP wild-type and RING domain-deficient mice; (B) 23 weeks after BBN induction, HE staining and pathological analysis of mouse bladder tissue confirmed that bladder tumors in the urothelium led to muscle-invasive bladder cancer, and the basal-type bladder cancer marker KRT5 was highly expressed; XIAPRING domain deletion significantly inhibited the occurrence of basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer; (C and D) In the mouse bladder epithelium, the number of KRT14-expressing cells increased and thickened with increasing BBN induction time; (E) Comparison of KRT14 and KRT20 expression in the bladder urothelium in XIAP wild-type and RING domain-deficient mice after BBN induction for 23 weeks.
[0292] like Figure 12As shown in Figure A, wild-type XIAP and RING domain-deficient mice were given water containing 0.05% BBN for 23 weeks. 75% (15 / 20) of the wild-type XIAP mice developed bladder cancer, while the RING domain-deficient mice had only a 4.5% (1 / 22) bladder cancer incidence rate. Therefore, RING domain-deficient mice blocked the development of bladder cancer by 94%. HE staining and immunohistochemical staining with antibodies against KRT5 and KRT14 showed that BBN induced BMIBC, and the expression of the basal marker KRT14 gradually increased with increasing BBN induction time ( Figure 12 C and 12D); the expression of the luminal-like molecular marker KRT20 gradually decreased, and the deletion of the RING domain significantly weakened the expression of KRT14 ( Figure 12 E). The results showed that the deletion of the XIAPRING domain in bladder epithelial cells significantly inhibited the development of BBN-induced BMIBC in mice, suggesting that the RING domain plays a crucial role in the development of BBN-induced primary BMIBC.
[0293] Example 6: RING domain E3 ligase is a key site for XIAP to promote the development and invasion of BMIBCs in mice
[0294] Further studies found that the XIAP RING domain can specifically downregulate the expression of DNMT3B protein in BMIBC cells. Therefore, we explored the role of the XIAP RING domain in the degradation of DNMT3B. Figure 13, where (A) Western blot assay was used to detect the role of the XIAP RING domain in DNMT3B protein degradation; (B) Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR assay was used to detect the expression level of DNMT3B in the indicated cells; (C and D) U5637 cells after XIAP knockout successfully reversed the RING domain (Myc-RING) and the RING domain containing a point mutation in the E3 ligase active site (H467A), respectively. The effect of DNMT3B protein degradation was detected by blot analysis; (E) The interaction between DNMT3B and the RING domain was detected by immunoprecipitation; (F) The ubiquitination level of DNMT3B was detected by immunoprecipitation; (G and H) The effects of XIAP knockout, including the reversed RING domain and the RING domain containing a point mutation in the E3 ligase active site, on the migration and invasion of U5637 cells were detected by Transwell assay; (I) The expression level of SNHG1 in the indicated cells was detected by real-time quantitative PCR; (J) Wild-type XIAP and H466A mutant XIAP mice (equivalent to the human H467A site) were treated with control or BBN for 16 weeks (n=10). The mouse bladders were harvested and the bladder tissues were pathologically analyzed by HE staining to calculate the incidence of basal-type muscle-invasive bladder cancer in mice; (K) The expression level of SNHG1 was detected by real-time quantitative PCR.
[0295] The results showed that compared with BMIBC U5637 (Vector), knockout of XIAP significantly inhibited the degradation rate of DNMT3B, while rotation of the XIAP RING domain completely restored the degradation rate of DNMT3B protein ( Figure 13 A). Compared with protein degradation, mRNA levels did not change significantly in U5637(Vector), U5637(KOXIAP / Vector) and U5637(KOXIAP / RING) cells ( Figure 13 B). This result indicates that the XIAP RING domain regulates DNMTB expression by mediating the degradation of DNMT3B protein. The RING domain has E3 ligase activity, so is DNMT3B protein degradation related to E3 ligase? To this end, a point mutation (H467A) was made in the E3 ligase active site to inactivate its E3 ligase activity. The RING domain and the wild-type RING domain were then re-transfected into XIAP knockout cells. The results showed that compared with the wild-type RING domain, the RING domain with the H467A point mutation lost the ability to mediate the degradation of DNMT3B protein ( Figure 13 CD), indicating that the E3 ligase activity of the XIAP RING domain plays an important role in the degradation of DNMT3B protein.
[0296] To determine whether the RING domain E3 ligase uses DNMT3B protein as a substrate and mediates the ubiquitination degradation of DNMT3B protein, we transfected U5637 (KOXIAP / myc-DNMT3B) cells with wild-type RING and its H467A mutant plasmids, lysed the transfected cells, and used co-immunoprecipitation to detect the interaction between DNMT3B and the RING domain. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that DNMT3B can bind to the RING domain, but the H467A mutant RING domain loses its ability to bind to DNMT3B ( Figure 13 E). Meanwhile, the ubiquitination level of DNMT3B was significantly increased in cells transfected with wild-type RING plasmid, while the ubiquitination level of DBMT3B was significantly decreased in cells transfected with H467A mutant RING ( Figure 13 F). This suggests that the RING domain E3 ligase of XIAP not only binds to DNMT3B protein, but also mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of DNMT3B protein. In terms of cellular function, cells transfected with the H467A mutant RING plasmid were unable to restore their invasive ability as with the wild-type RING plasmid ( Figure 13 GH); In U5637 (KOXIAP), reversion of the XIAP RING plasmid completely restored the expression of SNHG1, whereas reversion of the H467A mutant RING plasmid failed to restore the expression of SNHG1 ( Figure 13 I). In addition, in mice, the incidence of BMIBC induced by BBN was significantly reduced in bladder epithelial conditionally inducible transgenic mice with the H466A mutant (equivalent to the human H467A site) compared with wild-type XIAP mice (10% vs. 50%, as shown in Figure 1). Figure 13 J); BBN-induced SNHG1 expression in urothelial cells of XIAP H466A mutant mice was also significantly inhibited ( Figure 13 K).
[0297] These results suggest that the RING domain and its E3 ligase can use DNMT3B as a direct substrate, mediating its ubiquitination and degradation, thereby promoting SNHG1 expression, the development and progression of primary BMIBC, and cancer cell invasion. These findings fully demonstrate that the XIAP RING domain E3 ligase plays a crucial role in the development and progression of BMIBC and cancer cell invasion. It is known that XIAP is ubiquitously expressed in most adult and fetal tissues. XIAP expression is elevated in various tumors and positively correlates with tumor malignancy: expression is significantly higher in poorly differentiated tumors than in well-differentiated tumors, and significantly higher in metastatic tumors than in primary tumors. Furthermore, high XIAP expression is closely associated with poor clinical prognosis, including a strong correlation between XIAP protein levels and survival in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Because the compounds and compositions of the present application inhibit X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), specifically by targeting the XIAP RING domain and altering E3 ligase activity, they exert key biological activities such as inhibiting cell invasion and metastasis. Therefore, XIAP antagonists can be used to treat all types of diseases mediated by XIAP, including but not limited to cancer, autoimmune diseases (such as systemic lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis) and other diseases involving XIAP mediation.
[0298] Example 7: Studying the Antitumor Activity of Small Molecule Compounds Using a Bladder Cancer Model
[0299] 1. Detection of the tumor inhibitory effect of the small molecule compound Com2 in mice using a subcutaneous tumor model
[0300] The antitumor activity of the small molecule compound Com2 was evaluated using a subcutaneous tumor model of human bladder cancer cells T24T in nude mice. 6 The mice were randomly divided into a control group (Vehicle) and a drug-treated group (Com2, 100 mg / kg / day), with 9 nude mice in each group. The mice were given the drug once a day via drinking water starting from the day after inoculation for 33 days, and the tumor volume was measured every 4 days starting from the 9th day. The results showed (see Figure 14 ), compared with the control group, Com2 showed a significant tumor growth inhibition effect, with a tumor inhibition rate of 94.9%.
[0301] 2. Lung metastasis model to detect the inhibitory activity of small molecule compound Com1 on tumor lung metastasis in mice
[0302] BALB / C-nu nude mice aged 3 to 4 weeks were selected. T24T bladder cancer cells were amplified, digested with trypsin, counted, and resuspended in PBS to adjust the cell density to 3×10 7 / ml. Use an insulin injection needle to draw 100μl (3×10 6 ) cell suspension was injected into nude mice through the tail vein. After 5 weeks of normal feeding, the mice were randomly divided into 2 groups, including a vehicle control group and a small molecule compound treatment group to be tested (Com1, 100 mg / kg / day), with 5 mice in each group. The drug was administered by drinking water for 8 weeks. After administration, physiological indicators (such as body weight, heart rate, respiratory rate, etc.) and biochemical indicators (such as blood sugar, blood lipids, liver function, etc.) were monitored every 3 days, and the status of the mice was closely observed. After the drug treatment, the mice were killed, and the lung tissues were fixed with picric acid for 24 hours, and the number of lung metastases was counted and photographed. The small molecule compounds were embedded in paraffin and HE stained. The activity of inhibiting tumor lung metastasis in mice was evaluated. The results are shown (see Figure 15 ), the Com1-treated group showed a significant decrease in lung metastases and a reduction in size. Preliminary observation of tissue morphology using HE staining revealed that the normal hierarchical structure of tissue cells was restored after drug treatment, indicating that Com1 significantly inhibits the formation of tumor lung metastases in mice.
[0303] 3. Detection of the target dependence of the small molecule compound Com1 in inhibiting bladder cancer growth in mice
[0304] To verify whether the antitumor activity of the small molecule compound Com1 in bladder cancer is mediated by its effect on XIAP E3 ligase activity, subcutaneous tumor formation experiments were performed in 3-4 week-old BALB / C-nu nude mice using human bladder cancer cell line T24T. T24T cells were expanded, trypsinized, counted, and resuspended in PBS to adjust the cell density to 2×10 7 / ml. Use a 1ml sterile injection needle to draw up 100μl of cell suspension and inoculate it subcutaneously into nude mice. Generally, it should be completed within half an hour. During the process, the cell suspension should be placed on ice to reduce cell metabolism and maintain cell activity. The mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (5 mice in each group), including ①T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP) Vehicle control group; ②T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP) drug-added group (10mg / kg / day); ③T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) Vehicle control group; ④T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) drug-added group (10mg / kg / day). The drugs were administered by intraperitoneal injection starting from the second day after tumor cell inoculation, once a day, for 30 days. The results showed (see Figure 16), the T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP)-treated group (10 mg / kg / day) significantly inhibited subcutaneous tumor growth compared to the control group, with a tumor inhibition rate of approximately 70%. T24T (KOXIAP / H467A) cells showed reduced subcutaneous tumorigenicity compared to T24T (KOXIAP / XIAP) cells, but no significant difference in tumor growth was observed in the T24T (KOXIAP / H467A)-treated group (10 mg / kg / day) compared to the control group. This suggests that Com1 inhibits bladder cancer growth in mice by specifically targeting and inhibiting the XIAP E3 ubiquitin ligase site.
[0305] Example 8: Studying the Antitumor Activity of Small Molecule Compounds Using a Gastric Cancer Model
[0306] The anti-tumor activity of the small molecule compound Com1 against gastric cancer was tested using a subcutaneous tumor model of human gastric adenocarcinoma AGS cells in mice. 16 BALB / C-nu nude mice were inoculated with 5×10 6 AGS cells were randomly divided into four groups: control group (Vehicle) and different concentrations of drug-treated groups (5 mg / kg / day, 20 mg / kg / day, 100 mg / kg / day), with 4 mice in each group. Drug administration began on the day after inoculation, once a day, intraperitoneally, for 24 days. The results showed (see Figure 17 ), compared with the control group, the drug-added groups (5 mg / kg / day, 20 mg / kg / day, 100 mg / kg / day) all had inhibitory effects, among which compound 1 at a dose of 20 mg / kg / day had an inhibitory effect of 90%, and at a dose of 100 mg / kg / day, human gastric adenocarcinoma AGS cells hardly grew in nude mice.

Drug administration began on the day after inoculation, once a day, intraperitoneally, for 22 days. The results showed (see Figure 18 ), compared with the control group, the drug-added groups (5 mg / kg / day, 10 mg / kg / day, 40 mg / kg / day) all had inhibitory effects, among which compound 1 at a dose of 10 mg / kg / day caused almost no growth of mouse gastric cancer MFC cells in the mice, showing a very significant tumor inhibitory effect.

[0309] The anti-tumor activity of the small molecule compound Com1 against pancreatic cancer was further tested by using a subcutaneous tumor model of pancreatic cancer mouse KPC cells. 24 C57BL / 6J mice were subcutaneously inoculated with 1×10 6 KPC cells were randomly divided into four groups: control group (Vehicle) and different concentrations of drug-treated groups (10 mg / kg / day, 40 mg / kg / day, 100 mg / kg / day), with 6 mice in each group. The drug was administered once a day by intraperitoneal injection on the day after inoculation for 24 days. The results showed (see Figure 19 ), compared with the control group, the drug-added group showed a certain tumor inhibition effect at high doses (40 mg / kg / day and 100 mg / kg / day), and the inhibition rate of the drug-added group (100 mg / kg / day) reached 90%, which indicates that compound 1 has the effect of inhibiting the growth of pancreatic cancer cells in mice.

The drug was administered via drinking water starting from the day after inoculation, once a day for 25 days. The results showed (see Figure 20 ), compared with the control group, the small molecule compound Com1 has a certain inhibitory effect on the growth of human melanoma A375 cells in nude mice, and the tumor inhibition rate reaches 40%.
[0312] Example 11: Studying the Antitumor Activity of Small Molecule Compounds Using a Renal Cancer Model
[0313] The anti-tumor activity of the small molecule compound X-10 against renal cancer was tested using a subcutaneous tumor model of mouse renal cancer RENCA cells. 25 male BALB / c mice aged 4-6 weeks were inoculated with 6×10 5 RENCA cells were randomly divided into a control group, a group injected with different concentrations of intraperitoneal injection (5 mg / kg / day, 20 mg / kg / day, 40 mg / kg / day), and a drinking water administration group (40 mg / kg / day), with 5 mice in each group. The drug was administered once a day starting from the day after inoculation for 18 consecutive days. The results showed (see Figure 21), compared with the control group, the drug-treated groups showed significant inhibitory effects on tumor growth. The tumor inhibition rate of the intraperitoneal injection group (5 mg / kg / day) reached more than 90%, while tumor cells did not grow in the intraperitoneal injection groups (20 mg / kg / day, 40 mg / kg / day) and the drinking water administration group (40 mg / kg / day).
[0314] Example 12: Studying the Antitumor Activity of Small Molecule Compounds Using a Lung Cancer Model
[0315] The antitumor activity of the small molecule compound X-10 against lung adenocarcinoma was tested by subcutaneous tumor formation experiment of human lung adenocarcinoma H1299 cells in nude mice. 6 H1299 cells were randomly divided into a control group and a drug-treated group (40 mg / kg / day), with 5 mice in each group. The drug was administered on the day after inoculation, once a day, by intraperitoneal injection, for 32 days.
