Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and relates to a double E3-PROTAC as well as a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Traditional drug discovery strategies are to find molecules that can directly regulate the activity of related proteins. Most small molecule inhibitors and antibody drugs generally exert their biological functions through "occupation-driven", that is, the drug molecules and the active sites of target proteins bind to compete with endogenous ligands, which makes them need to have good binding affinity and half-life characteristics to exert good drug efficacy. Peptide and antibody drugs have the advantages of high selectivity and high affinity, but their molecular weight is large, which leads to poor membrane permeability and difficulty in acting on intracellular proteins.

[0003] Proteolysis targeting chimerics (PROTAC) is a new direction in the field of drug research and development, which brings dawn to the bottleneck of small molecule drugs and antibody drugs and has attracted widespread attention from researchers. The core of PROTAC is to directly induce target protein degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome protein degradation pathway in vivo, which is superior to traditional inhibitors and is expected to solve the problems of drug resistance and non-druggable targets. In addition, PROTAC has the advantages of high selectivity and specificity, substoichiometric catalytic activity.

[0004] The classic PROTAC is a bivalent PROTAC, which contains a target protein ligand and a ligand recognizing E3 ligase, and the two ligands are connected by a linker chain. The classic PROTAC has opened up a path for protein degradation, but also faces some limitations, including weak binding affinity, poor drugability (large molecular weight), unpredictable off-target effects and potential toxicity. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the traditional PROTAC technology to avoid or reduce such harmful shortcomings to better assist clinical medicine.

[0005] In recent years, PROTAC technology has developed rapidly, and as a result, many new technologies have emerged to optimize traditional PROTAC. At present, there have been reports of trivalent PROTACs containing two target protein ligands and one E3 ligase ligand, which have shown stronger drug efficacy than bivalent PROTACs. However, there have been no reports of PROTACs containing two E3 ligase ligands.

[0006] BRD4 is a member of the BET (Bromodomain and extraterminal domain) family, and is a very attractive target in a variety of pathological environments, especially cancer, such as midline carcinoma, acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, Burkitt's lymphoma and prostate cancer. Small molecule inhibitors targeting BRD4 such as (+)JQ-1, iBET and OTX015 exhibit therapeutic potential in preclinical models of various cancers. However, limited by the defects of small molecule inhibitors, BRD4 inhibitors need to maintain a high dose to ensure the inhibitory effect on BRD4. In this context, scientists hope to apply the PROTAC technology to the degradation of BRD4 protein to achieve remarkable results. SUMMARY

[0007] The purpose of the present application is to provide a kind of double E3-PROTAC, compared with the classic bivalent PROTAC, the double E3-PROTAC has a target protein ligand, two E3 ligase ligands and a connecting chain, by increasing the binding site of PROTAC to improve the efficiency of protein degradation.

[0240] The protein degradation activity of the compounds I-1 to I-18 was detected by Western Blot.

[0241] Cell strain: Hela cells.

[0242] Tested compounds: the compounds I-1 to I-18, the compound XVII (traditional PROTACs), the compound XVIII (traditional PROTACs), and (+)JQ-1.

[0243] Drug preparation: the compounds I-1 to I-18, the two control compounds, and (+)JQ-1 were respectively dissolved in DMSO to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 20 mmol / L, and then DMEM complete culture medium was used to prepare a drug solution with a concentration of 1 μmol / L, which was ready for use.

[0244] Cell culture: the Hela cells in a good growth state were selected for digestion, transferred into 9 cm cell culture dishes, and cultured in a 37℃, 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h, and then the drug solution was given, and the cell culture dishes were further cultured in the incubator for 12 h. DMSO and DMEM complete culture medium were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:19, and an equal volume of the mixture was used to replace the drug solution, to serve as a DMSO group.

[0245] Extraction of cell protein: the old culture medium was discarded, the cells were rinsed with 2 mL pre-cooled PBS for 2-3 times, and the PBS was discarded; 100 μL of prepared lysis solution (1 mL lysis solution + 10 μL PMSF) was added to the cell culture dish, the lysis solution was evenly spread, and lysis was performed on ice for 20 min; after the lysis was completed, a clean spatula was used to quickly scrape the cells to one side of the culture dish, and then a syringe was used to transfer the cell fragments and lysis solution to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube; the centrifuge was pre-cooled to 4℃, and centrifugation was performed at 4℃ and 12000 rpm for 15 min; after the centrifugation was completed, the supernatant was transferred to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, and stored on ice, to be used for BCA protein quantification experiments. An appropriate amount of the supernatant was taken, and about 1 / 4 of the volume of the supernatant was added to the loading buffer, which was subjected to a metal bath at 95℃ for 10 min, cooled to room temperature, and stored in a -80℃ refrigerator, for standby use.

[0246] BCA method for determining the concentration of cell protein: BCA reagent A and reagent B are prepared into BCA working solution according to the volume ratio of 50:1, and are used. Respectively 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 μL of protein standard solution (0.5 mg / mL) is added to the 96-well plate, then PBS is added to make the total volume 20 μL, then 200 μL of BCA working solution is added, and it is placed in a 37°C incubator for 30 min. The absorbance of the sample at 562 nm is detected by the enzyme-labeled instrument, and the standard curve is drawn according to the absorbance value of the standard protein. Take 10 μL of the protein sample to be tested, dilute it to 20 μL with water, add 200 μL of BCA working solution, and place it in a 37°C incubator for 30 min. The absorbance of the sample at 562 nm is detected by the enzyme-labeled instrument, and then the concentration of the protein to be tested is calculated according to the standard curve.

[0247] Western blot detection of BRD4 expression in Hela cells:

[0248] (1) Gel preparation: After aligning the clean glass plate, clamp it tightly to assemble the electrophoresis tank, then vertically place it on the shelf to prepare for pouring the glue. According to the molecular weight of the target protein, prepare 6% separation glue, pour the separation glue into the glass plate of the electrophoresis tank, add anhydrous ethanol above the glue, and the liquid level is flat with the short glass plate. Room temperature for 30 min. When a clear interface appears between the separation glue and the anhydrous ethanol, it means that the separation glue has been polymerized. Slowly pour off the anhydrous ethanol. Pour the prepared concentrated glue onto the separation glue, and the liquid level is flat with the short glass plate. Then quickly insert the sample lane comb into the liquid surface to avoid air bubbles. Room temperature until the glue solidifies.

[0249] (2) Sample loading: Place the prepared polymerized glue into the electrophoresis tank, then add electrophoresis buffer to the inner tank of the electrophoresis tank until it is immersed. Add the same electrophoresis buffer to the outer tank, and the liquid level is about one-third of the height of the electrophoresis tank. Carefully pull out the comb vertically to avoid damaging the sample lane. Slowly add an appropriate amount of protein sample and standard protein Marker to the bottom of each gel well with a pipette.

[0250] (3) Electrophoresis: Cover the electrophoresis instrument, connect the electrophoresis instrument and the power supply device. Electrophoresis at 80V for 30 min. When the sample reaches the separation glue, adjust the voltage to 120V and continue electrophoresis. Refer to the Marker position to determine whether to end the electrophoresis.

[0251] (4) Membrane transfer: Take out the gel and soak it in the transfer solution, separate the glass plates, cut off the concentrated glue part, and soak the remaining part in the transfer solution. Use tweezers to hold the PVDF, soak it in methanol for activation, and use it. Add double-layer filter paper, PVDF membrane, gel, double-layer filter paper to the transfer tank in turn, and lay them flat and in alignment. Add the transfer solution and set the conditions, and transfer the membrane in an ice water bath.

[0252] (5) Antibody incubation: After the PVDF membrane is transferred, wash the membrane with the washing solution for 10 min three times, then add an appropriate amount of 5% blocking solution, and block at room temperature for 1 h; after blocking, discard the blocking solution. Dilute the target protein primary antibody, and prepare it for use. Place the PVDF membrane in the primary antibody dilution solution and incubate at 4°C overnight; after the primary antibody incubation is complete, recover the primary antibody dilution solution and wash the PVDF membrane with PBST buffer three times for 10 min each time. Dilute the target protein secondary antibody, and prepare it for use. Place the PVDF membrane in the secondary antibody dilution solution and incubate at room temperature on a shaker for 1 h, then wash the membrane with TBST buffer three times for 10 min each time. Complete the antibody incubation.

[0253] (6) Development and analysis: Prepare the development working solution (A solution: B solution = 1:1) and prepare it for use. Take out the PVDF membrane, evenly add the development working solution to the surface of the membrane, and finally expose it to light using a gel imaging system and save the exposure image. Scan the gray scale of each group of protein bands using ImageJ software, use the β-actin internal reference protein as the reference gray scale, and compare the expression levels of each group of proteins.

[0254] Each treatment is repeated three times, and the experimental results are expressed as the average value.

[0255] The protein degradation activity results of compounds I-1 to I-18 are shown in Figures 1-4 It can be observed that in Hela cells, most of the compounds have good degradation effect on BRD4 protein, and the degradation efficiency is better than that of the corresponding traditional PROTACs.

[0256] Compounds I-1, I-7, I-13, I-4, I-6, I-10, I-12, I-16 and I-18 have good degradation activity on BRD4 protein; compared with compound XVII and compound XVIII (traditional PROTACs), compounds I-6, I-10, I-12, I-16 and I-18 have significant differences, indicating that their degradation activity is significantly better than the control, and the strongest degradation activity is compound I-10, which has a protein degradation rate of 80% at a drug concentration of 1 μM and a drug time of 12 hours. While the traditional PROTACs have a protein degradation rate of only 10% under the same drug concentration and time. Figure 1 and Figure 2

[0257] Compounds I-8, I-14 and I-17 have good degradation activity on BRD4 protein. Compared with compound XVII and compound XVIII, compounds I-14 and I-17 have better degradation activity, and compound I-14 has significant differences, indicating that the degradation activity of compound I-14 is significantly better than the control, and the protein degradation rate reaches 50% at a drug concentration of 1 μM and a drug time of 12 hours.​Figure 3 and Figure 4 ).

[0258] In summary, it is shown that the dual E3-PROTACs have better degradation activity on BRD4 protein, and are superior to the classic bivalent PROTACs.
