Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine technology, in particular to diketone compounds, and in particular to the medical use of a class of diketone compounds in treating and / or preventing and alleviating diseases related to nerve damage. Background Art

[0002] Ischemic stroke is the single most disabling disease in my country, with ischemic injury (cerebral infarction) accounting for approximately 70% of cases. Its pathological mechanism involves a complex interaction of glutamate excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, inflammatory cascades, and ion channel dysfunction. Under conditions of ischemia and hypoxia, energy metabolism failure leads to uncontrolled glutamate release from the presynaptic membrane, abnormally elevated glutamate concentrations in the synaptic cleft, and excessive activation of ionotropic glutamate receptors (such as the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, NMDAR) triggers intracellular calcium overload, which in turn induces the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, a burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and activation of caspase-dependent apoptotic pathways. Recent studies have found that glutamate significantly amplifies neuronal damage in the acidotic microenvironment by allosterically regulating acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs). ASIC1a isoforms, activated by protons, mediate sustained sodium and calcium influx. Glutamate, by binding to allosteric sites in their extracellular domains (such as the GluR2 acidic pocket), enhances the channel's sensitivity to protons, leading to increased frequency and prolonged opening of the channel. This creates a "glutamate-ASICs" positive feedback loop, ultimately triggering neuronal hyperexcitability, calcium oscillations, and mitochondrial membrane potential collapse. Animal studies have shown that combined inhibition of ASICs and NMDARs can significantly reduce cerebral infarct volume, suggesting the potential advantages of dual-targeted intervention.

[0003] Similar mechanisms are also seen in other neurological injury-related diseases: in Alzheimer's disease (AD), β-amyloid protein (Aβ) deposition can induce abnormal activation of the ASICs / NMDAR pathway; the pathological process of Parkinson's disease (PD) is closely related to oxidative stress and acidosis microenvironment associated with mitochondrial dysfunction; in diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple sclerosis (MS), epilepsy and spinal cord injury (SCI), glutamate excitotoxicity, hyperactivation of the ASICs / NMDAR pathway, free radical accumulation and inflammatory response jointly aggravate neuronal damage; in addition, acidosis-induced ASICs activation and glutamate signaling disorders also exist in the pathological processes of glaucoma, traumatic brain injury (TBI), neuropathic pain and migraine.

[0004] Currently, there are two main categories of neuroprotective agents in clinical use: drugs targeting the glutamate pathway (such as the NMDAR antagonist memantine, the ASICs inhibitor amiloride, and the antioxidant edaravone); and neurorepair metabolic regulators (such as citicoline, butylphthalide, and piracetam). While the former can partially block calcium influx or scavenge free radicals, they suffer from limitations such as a narrow therapeutic window, an inability to intervene in the allosteric enhancement of ASICs by glutamate, and low blood-brain barrier penetration. While the latter can promote membrane repair or improve energy metabolism, they are unable to effectively inhibit the post-stroke glutamate burst release and the synergistic hyperactivation of the ASICs / NMDAR pathway in the acidotic microenvironment, resulting in limited efficacy in intervening on neuronal hyperexcitability and calcium overload. Therefore, developing novel multi-mechanism therapeutic strategies that simultaneously target the dynamic regulation of glutamate and the homeostasis of the acidic microenvironment is of great clinical significance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a class of diketone compounds for medical use in the treatment and / or prevention and alleviation of diseases related to nerve damage.

They can specifically bind to ASIC1a and NMDAR, significantly reducing nerve cell damage in high-concentration glutamate-induced or oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) models, and exhibit free radical scavenging ability. Their multi-target properties can simultaneously intervene in key nodes in the ischemic stroke pathological network (synergistic hyperactivation of the glutamate-ASICs / NMDAR pathway, oxidative stress and inflammatory response), breaking through existing treatment bottlenecks and providing a new strategy for the preparation of drugs for the treatment and / or prevention and alleviation of nerve damage.

[0123] Example 11: In vitro testing of the protective ability of compounds against glutamate-damaged nerve cells:

[0124] This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of compounds on glutamate-induced neuronal excitotoxicity and its dose-dependent mechanism. Primary cultured mouse cortical neurons or mouse hippocampal neuron HT22 cell lines were cultured in Neurobasal medium (containing 2% B27 and 1% GlutaMAX, neurons) or DMEM / F12 medium (HT22), respectively. The experimental groups included a blank control group (no glutamate and compound), a glutamate injury group (25mM glutamate treatment), a compound intervention group (25mM glutamate + target compound 10μM gradient concentration) and a positive control group (10mM glutamate + 10μM sefotaxime, NMDA receptor antagonist). The specific process was as follows: First, cells were seeded in 96-well plates (neuron density 5×10 4 / well, HT22 cell density 9×10 3 / well), after the neurons mature or the HT22 cell density reaches 70% confluence, 25 mM glutamate (prepared in culture medium, pH 7.4) and the target compound or sefotaxime were added simultaneously for treatment for 24 hours, respectively; after termination of the experiment, cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay (in a dark environment, 10 μL CCK-8 reagent was added to each well, incubated at 37°C for 2 hours (neurons) / 40 minutes (HT22), the absorbance at 450 nm was measured and calculated according to the formula "survival rate (%) = [(experimental group OD - blank OD) / (control group OD - blank OD)]×100%"). In addition, cytotoxicity was detected using an LDH kit, and absorbance was measured at 490 nm. Cell damage was assessed according to the formula "Cytotoxicity or mortality (%) = (absorbance of treated sample - absorbance of sample control well) / (absorbance of maximum cell enzyme activity - absorbance of sample control well) × 100". After loading with the Fluo-4 AM fluorescent probe, the intracellular calcium ion concentration (quantitative calcium overload level) was measured by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. Experimental data were expressed as mean ± SD and statistically analyzed using GraphPad Prism software. The regulatory effects of the compounds on neuronal cell survival, membrane integrity, and calcium homeostasis in the glutamate toxicity model were systematically analyzed, and their protective efficacy and potential mechanism were verified by comparison with the positive drug sefotaxime.

[0127] Example 12: In vitro testing of the protective ability of compounds on nerve cells in the OGD model:

[0128] This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of the target compound on oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced ischemic injury of neural cells and its dose-dependent mechanism. Primary cultured mouse hippocampal / cortical neurons or HT22 neural cell lines were cultured in Neurobasal+B27 (neurons) or DMEM high glucose medium (HT22), respectively. The experimental groups included a normal control group, an OGD model group (compound intervention group (OGD treatment + target compound 10 μM gradient concentration) and a positive control group (OGD treatment + edaravone 10 μM or safortide 10 μM). The specific process was as follows: first, the cells were seeded in a 96-well plate (neuron density 5×10 4 / well, HT22 cell density 9×10 3 Once the neurons are mature or the HT22 cell density reaches 70% confluence, remove the cells from the incubator and discard the culture medium. Add an appropriate amount of sugar-free DMEM to the culture dish or plate and disinfect the hypoxic chamber with a 75% alcohol solution. Then, move the dish or plate to a hypoxic chamber (95% N2 / 5% CO2) and incubate at 37°C for 6-8 hours. Return to complete DMEM and add the compound and positive drug treatments before incubating for an additional 24 hours. Negative control cells remain untreated and continue to incubate in complete DMEM. Finally, the cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay (10 μL CCK-8 reagent was added to each well, incubated at 37°C in the dark for 2 hours (neurons) / 40 minutes (HT22), and the absorbance at 450 nm was measured to calculate the survival rate), the cytotoxicity was detected by LDH kit, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was detected by DCFH-DA fluorescent probe (10 μM loading for 30 minutes, Ex / Em=488 / 525 nm), and the early apoptosis was quantified by Annexin V-FITC / PI double staining flow cytometry (Annexin V + / PI-) and late apoptosis / necrosis (Annexin V + / PI + ) cell ratio; GraphPad Prism software was used to statistically analyze the test results (experimental data are expressed as mean ± SD). The target compounds' regulatory effects on neuronal cell survival, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the OGD injury model were systematically analyzed, and their protective efficacy was verified by comparison with positively charged drugs.

[0132] Example 13: In vitro surface plasmon resonance testing of compounds with ASIC1a and NMDAR proteins

[0133] This experiment used surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology to directionally immobilize recombinant ASIC1a and NMDAR proteins on a carboxymethyl dextran chip (CM5). The proteins were fixed to the chip surface using EDC / NHS-activated amino coupling, and a reference channel was set for background subtraction. The target compound and positive control (saforin) were serially diluted (0.1-100 μM, containing 1% DMSO) and injected into the chip in a multi-cycle kinetic mode. The binding and dissociation processes were monitored (binding for 120 seconds and dissociation for 300 seconds). The chip surface was regenerated with glycine (pH 2.0). Based on the real-time response curves, two types of equilibrium dissociation constants were calculated using kinetic analysis (1:1 Langmuir model) and steady-state analysis (equilibrium binding response value-concentration fitting), respectively: ① K D (kinetic)=k off / k on , through the kinetic rate constant (k on 、k off ) characterizes dynamic binding properties; ②K D Affinity: Steady-state binding curve fitting (response value saturation platform) directly reflects overall affinity. System specificity is verified through positive controls, while DMSO concentration, protein stability, and regeneration conditions are strictly controlled to ensure data reliability. This allows for a systematic analysis of the interaction kinetics and thermodynamic characteristics between the compound and the target protein, providing two-dimensional binding parameters (dynamic rate and static affinity) for drug design. Table 3 shows the SPR test results for some selected compounds:
