Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology, specifically relating to cyclic peptides targeting integrin αvβ3 and their applications. Background Technology

[0002] Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane receptor proteins located on the cell membrane surface, responsible for mediating cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion and cell-cell interactions. They play crucial roles in cell signaling, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and tissue homeostasis, and are closely related to various diseases such as cancer, inflammation, and thrombosis. To date, 24 integrins have been identified in mammals, each composed of pairs of 18 α subunits and 8 β subunits. Based on the binding ligands, integrins can be classified into four categories: RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartate)-binding integrins, collagen-binding integrins, leukocyte-specific binding integrins, and laminin-binding integrins. In vivo, RGD-binding integrins specifically bind to ECM components such as fibronectin, osteopontin, vitreous connexin, and fibrinogen via the conserved arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) sequence, mediating intracellular and extracellular signal transduction. Therefore, they play important roles in fibrosis, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases.

[0003] αvβ3 is an important member of the integrin family. Studies have shown that its expression is upregulated in endothelial cells, contributing to angiogenesis, and it is also expressed in invasive tumor cells, macrophages, activated leukocytes, and osteoclasts. Therefore, αvβ3 has been explored as a therapeutic target for nearly 40 years, but to date, no αvβ3 antagonists have been approved for human treatment.

[0004] Currently reported peptides targeting αvβ3 include monocyclic peptides such as cilengitide, c(RGDfV), c(RGDfK), and c(RGDyK), as well as bicyclic peptides RGD4C and CT3HPQcT3RGDcT3, with the following specific structures:

[0005]

[0006]

[0007] Cilengiline exhibits good affinity for αvβ3, but also shows some affinity for αvβ5 and α5β1. Furthermore, cilengiline lacks an extension site beyond its conserved RGD sequence, limiting its application in drug delivery. Cilengiline has been clinically evaluated for the treatment of approximately 30 cancers, but failed in a phase III clinical trial due to its lack of efficacy in treating glioblastoma, failing to improve overall survival and progression-free survival. Compared to cilengiline, c(RGDfV) has a similar affinity, but also lacks an extension site and shows affinity for αvβ6. In contrast, c(RGDfK) and c(RGDyK), due to the presence of lysine (Lys), are more often used in drug delivery studies, but they also show some affinity for αvβ6. RGD4C has a lower affinity for αvβ3 compared to other cyclic peptides, and its cyclization is accomplished via disulfide bonds, which results in relatively poor stability and is rarely used in research.

[0008] Therefore, existing αvβ3-targeting cyclic peptides have one or more of the following problems: 1) poor stability; 2) poor selectivity; 3) low practicality; 4) low affinity for some cyclic peptides.

[0009] Overall, drug development targeting αvβ3 holds great promise. The conserved RGD sequence offers an advantage for peptide drug development, but existing αvβ3-targeting peptides suffer from poor stability and low affinity. Therefore, designing and developing novel, highly selective, and highly stable αvβ3-targeting peptide drugs is of significant importance and value for the precision diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other diseases.

Obviously, the described experimental examples are only a part of the experimental examples of the present invention, and not all of the experimental examples. Based on the implementation examples in the present invention, all other experimental examples obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0067] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods used in the following experimental examples are conventional methods; the materials and reagents used are commercially available unless otherwise specified.

[0068] like Figure 1 The diagram illustrates the preparation process of the cyclic peptide of this invention. The preparation steps are as follows:

[0069] Step 1: First, linear peptide (I) on resin is obtained by solid-phase synthesis;

[0070] Step 2: Cyclization was performed on the resin using a 2 mg / ml solution of elemental iodine (I2) DMF to obtain a monocyclic peptide (II) containing a thioether bridge.

[0072] Step 4: The cyclic peptide is cleaved from the resin using TFA solution, precipitated with diethyl ether and purified to obtain a monocyclic peptide (V);

[0073] Alternatively, step 5: Following step 3, the cyclic peptide is cleaved using a 30% hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) solution in dichloromethane (DCM), and then cyclized using the condensing agent HATU to obtain a bicyclic peptide with a side-chain protecting group.

[0075] Example 1: Synthesis of Bicyclic Peptide 5

[0076]

[0077] The specific synthesis steps are as follows: First, weigh 1g of 2-CTC resin and place it in a solid-phase synthesis dish. Swell it with 15ml of dichloromethane (DCM) for 30 minutes and then filter out the solution. Dissolve Fmoc-Pro-OH (0.3mmol) in 15ml of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and add it to the treated 2-CTC resin. Then add N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEPA) (1.5mmol, 5eq.) and react at room temperature for two hours. Then filter out the solution and wash the resin 5 times with 10ml of DMF. Add 15ml of a mixed solvent of MeOH / DIPEA / DCM (1:1:8) to block the resin for 30 minutes. Then filter out the solvent and wash the resin 5 times with 10ml of DMF. Next, the Fmoc protecting group was removed using a 20% piperidine DMF solution. Fmoc-Ala-OH (1.2 mmol, 4.0 eq.), condensing agent TBTU (1.2 mmol, 4.0 eq.), and DIPEA (3.6 mmol, 12 eq.) were added to the resin, and the reaction was carried out at 40°C for 1 h. The resin was then washed five times with DMF. The above steps were then repeated sequentially to condense amino acids Fmoc-Trp-OH, Fmoc-Asp(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-Gly-OH, Fmoc-nor-Arg(Pbf)-OH, Fmoc-Cys(Trt)-OH, and Fmoc-Asn(Trt)-OH, respectively, to obtain linear peptide 1. The resin containing linear peptide 1 was then transferred to a 250 mL solid-phase synthesis tube, and 150 mL of a 2 mg / mL elemental iodine DMF solution was added. The reaction was carried out at room temperature under nitrogen purging for 2 h to obtain monocyclic peptide 2. The peptide was then washed five times with DMF, followed by removal of the Fmoc protecting group with 20% piperidine DMF solution (2 × 10 ml), washed five times with DMF, and then three times with DCM. Subsequently, 15 ml of HFIP:DCM (3:7) cleavage reagent was added, and cleavage was performed at room temperature for 2 h. The filtrate was collected, and the solvent was evaporated to obtain monocyclic peptide 3 (232 mg, 0.16 mmol). Finally, monocyclic peptide 3 was dissolved in 500 ml of DMF solvent, and condensing agents HATU (0.62 mmol, 2.0 eq.) and DIEPA (0.69 mmol, 2.2 eq.) were added. The reaction was carried out at room temperature for 12 h, and the DMF was evaporated to obtain bicyclic peptide 4. No purification was required. 20 ml of a TFA:TIS:H2O (95:2.5:2.5) mixed solvent was added, and the reaction was carried out at room temperature for 30 min. After all protecting groups were removed, the sample was precipitated with diethyl ether and purified by HPLC to obtain bicyclic peptide 5, which was lyophilized to a white powder of 39 mg, with a yield of 14.7%.

[0133] Synthesis conditions: a) HATU (2.0 eq), DIPEA (2.2 eq), DMF, rt 2 h; b) TFA / TIS / H2O (95:2.5:2.5), reaction at room temperature for 0.5 h.

[0134] Taking bicyclic peptide 5 as the targeting peptide as an example, following the synthesis method in Example 1, alanine in bicyclic peptide 5 was replaced with lysine, which can serve as a linker, during the synthesis process. The lysine side chain amino protecting group Dde was preferentially removed using an orthogonal protection strategy, yielding bicyclic peptide 5-K protected by asparagine (Asn), arginine (Arg), and aspartic acid (Asp) side chains. An appropriate amount of 5-K was condensed with the fluorescent reagent Cy5 under the synthesis conditions (a, b) to obtain the fluorescently labeled compound 5-K-Cy5. Subsequently, 5-K-Cy5 was prepared into a 5 μM test solution using DMEM medium. After pre-cooling at 4°C, it was added to 96-well plates cultured with MDA-MB-231 and Huh-7 cells, respectively. The cells were then incubated at 4°C in the dark for 1 hour, washed, fixed, and the nuclei were stained with DAPI. The results were observed under a confocal microscope. The cell binding experiment results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, red fluorescence represents the Cy5 signal, and blue fluorescence represents the signal from the cell nucleus after DAPI staining. 5-K-Cy5 showed significant binding with positive MDA-MB-231 cells, but no binding signal with negative Huh-7 cells. The endocytosis experiment results are as follows... Figure 3 As shown, the fluorescence signal indicates that 5-K-Cy5 can be effectively internalized by αvβ3-expressing positive cells MDA-MB-231 and has good lysosomal co-localization.

[0135] The above experimental results indicate that bicyclic peptide 5 has targeting properties for integrin αvβ3. Substances based on bicyclic peptide 5 and shown in formulas I, II, or III all possess targeting properties and can be used as targeting peptides for αvβ3 receptor-mediated drug delivery.

[0136] Example 16: Affinity activity and selectivity test of cyclic peptide compounds

[0137] The activity and selectivity of cyclic peptide integrin ligands were detected by an ELISA-based integrin-extracellular matrix interaction assay.

[0138] Using c(RGDyK) as the reference reagent, other reagents included ECM protein (extracellular matrix protein), human integrin protein, primary antibody (mouse anti-human antibody), and secondary antibody (peroxidase-labeled anti-mouse IgG), etc. The specific processing is as follows:

[0139] First, the ECM protein was dissolved in carbonate buffer (15mM Na₂CO₃, 35mM NaHCO₃, pH 9.6), and then added to a 96-well plate (100 μl per well) and incubated overnight at 4°C. Then, the plate was washed with PBS-T buffer (phosphate / Tween 20 buffer, 137mM NaCl, 2.7mM KCl, 10mM Na₂HPO₄, 2mM KH₂PO₄, 0.01% Tween 20, pH 7.4; 3 × 200 μl), and blocked at room temperature for 1 hour with TSB buffer (Tris / BSA buffer, 150 μl / well, 20mM Tris-HCl, 150mM NaCl, 1mM CaCl₂, 1mM MgCl₂, 1mM MnCl₂, pH 7.5, 1% BSA). Simultaneously, a series of dilutions of the reference reagent and the test compound were prepared in another 96-well plate, starting from 1 μM and serially diluted 3-fold, for 10 concentration points. After washing the plate three times with PBS-T (200 μl), 50 μl of the corresponding dilution was transferred to each of the BG wells of the plate. 100 μl of TSB solution was added to well A as a blank, and 50 μl of TSB buffer was added to well H. Then, 50 μl of human integrin TSB buffer was added to well HB and incubated at room temperature for 1 h. After washing the plate three times with PBS-T buffer, primary antibody (100 μl per well) was added to the plate. After incubating at room temperature for 1 h, the plate was washed three times with PBS-T buffer. Then, secondary antibody (100 μl per well) was added and incubated at room temperature for 1 h, followed by washing three times with PBS-T buffer. After washing, the substrate SeramunBlau was quickly added to the plate (50 μl per well) and incubated in the dark for 5 minutes. Then add 50 μl of 3M H2SO4 stop solution to each well, and finally use an ELISA reader to detect the absorbance at a wavelength of 450 nm.

[0140] The test results (Table 1) show that the cyclic peptides obtained in most examples have nanomolar affinity for integrin αvβ3 and exhibit high selectivity for integrin αvβ3.

[0145] Table 2: Data from partial peptide-based ELISA-based integrin-extracellular matrix interaction experiments

[0146]

[0147] The test results (Table 2) show that cyclic peptides 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, and 13 have a sub-nanomolar affinity for integrin αvβ3, but their affinity for integrin αvβ5, αvβ6, αvβ8, and α5β1 is weaker than that for integrin αvβ3. Like other peptides in Table 1, they have both high affinity and selectivity for integrin αvβ3.

[0154] First, taking bicyclic peptide 5 as the targeting peptide as an example, according to the synthesis method of Example 1, alanine in bicyclic peptide 5 was replaced with lysine, which can serve as a linker, during the synthesis process. The lysine side chain amino protecting group Dde was preferentially removed using an orthogonal protection strategy to obtain bicyclic peptide 5-K protected by asparagine (Asn), arginine (Arg), and aspartic acid (Asp) side chains. 30 mg of 5-K was used for the synthesis of PDC1 and PDC2, respectively. Under synthesis conditions (a, b), direct condensation yielded bicyclic peptide 21 containing an alkynyl group. Bicyclic peptide 21 was directly precipitated with diethyl ether, centrifuged, and lyophilized. Under synthesis condition c, it was reacted with 6-azidohexanamido-VA-PABC-MMAE to obtain peptide conjugates PDC1 and PDC2. After purification, 40.2 mg of PDC1 was obtained, with a yield of 79.3%. HR ESI-MS: m / z for C 121 H 188 N 25 O 32 S + (M+H) + :2535.3567, found 2535.3541. PDC2 yielded 35.2 mg, 77.1% yield, HR ESI-MS: m / z for C 112 H 170 N 25 O 24 S + (M+H) + :2281.2566,found 2281.2526.

[0155] Example 18: In vitro cell proliferation inhibition assay of peptide-conjugated drugs (CCK8 assay)

[0156] Human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231, 3.0 × 10⁶ m²) were incubated in 96-well cell culture plates. 3 / well) and lung cancer cells (A549 cells, 3.0 × 10⁶) 3After incubating for 24 hours in each well, the culture medium was discarded, and different concentrations of the test drug (5.0 μM, 2.5 μM, 1.0 μM, 333.33 nM, 111.13 nM, 37.04 nM, 12.35 nM, 4.12 nM, 1.37 nM) diluted in the culture medium were added. The cells were then incubated in a 5% CO2 incubator for 72 hours. Following this, the detection reagent was added according to the traditional CCK8 assay protocol, and the cells were incubated in the dark for 3 hours. The OD value of each well was then measured using a microplate reader and compared with the control group. The cell proliferation inhibition results are shown in Table 3. The experimental results show that PDC1 and PDC2 have nanomolar inhibitory effects on both αvβ3-positive cell lines, MDA-MB-231 and A549, and their toxicity is significantly reduced compared to the single loading drug MMAE. Bicyclic peptide 5 alone has no toxic effect on either cell type. These data indicate that bicyclic peptide 5 can be used as a targeting peptide for drug delivery with high safety.

[0159] Example 19: In vivo tumor inhibition experiment of peptide-conjugated drugs (tumor-bearing mouse sample size n=7, ***p<0.001)

[0160] The experimental mice were 6-week-old nude mice weighing 20-25g. Each mouse received an injection of 1×10⁻⁶ A549 cells into the axilla of its right upper limb. 7 Inject 200 μl. Wait until the tumor grows to 100-150 mm in size. 3 Mice were randomly divided into groups of seven for each group and administered the drug twice daily. Body weight and tumor volume were measured before each administration. The experiment lasted 21 days. A PBS-only injection group served as a negative control, while 1 mg / kg PDC1 and an equivalent dose of MMAE (0.29 mg / kg) were used as control drugs. Results showed that compared to the PBS control group, 1 mg / kg PDC1 significantly inhibited tumor growth (***p<0.001), and there was no significant change in mouse body weight. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the MMAE-treated group, mice showed significant weight loss and mortality after four administrations. These results indicate that the PDC drug synthesized based on bicyclic peptide 5 has a significant antitumor effect in vivo and can significantly reduce the toxicity of the single loading drug MMAE. It demonstrates great potential and application value in tumor therapy targeting integrin αvβ3.
