Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an inhibitory compound that inhibits Dyrk1A enzyme, a method for preparing the same, and a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of central nervous system diseases containing the same as an active ingredient. Background Technology

[0003] Protein kinases are known to be a major regulatory mechanism of cells that are frequently deregulated in human diseases and are a key component of intracellular signaling pathways that control many physiological processes. Most kinases act on both serine and threonine, others act on tyrosine, and many (bispecific kinases) act on all three.

[0005] Dyrk1A (Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A) is known to play an important role in signaling pathway-regulating cell proliferation and is associated with brain development. The gene for Dyrk1A is located on human chromosome 21 in the Down syndrome critical region (DSCR), and increased activity of Dyrk1A has been reported to be associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Down syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and Pick's disease.

[0006] Hyperphosphorylation of the Thr-212 residue of Tau was observed in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients, and the Thr-212 residue of Tau was also found to be hyperphosphorylated in mice transformed with human Dyrk1A. These results revealed that Dyrk1A may make a significant contribution to the pathology caused by the hyperphosphorylation of Tau in Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome.

[0007] In particular, in Alzheimer's patients, in addition to the formation of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles composed of aggregates of neuropathologically hyperphosphorylated Tau, there is a cellular accumulation of insoluble precipitates of amyloid β peptide, and Dyrk1A is known to promote the formation of amyloid plaques, which are one of the important pathological causative agents of Alzheimer's disease, by directly phosphorylating related amyloid β precursor proteins, such as presenilin.

[0009] As a prior study on such Dyrk1A activity inhibitors, Souchet, B. et al. identified the compound Leucettine L41 as a DYRK1A activity inhibitor and confirmed through mouse experiments that the L41 compound inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation, reduces levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL1-β, TNF-α, and IL-12) associated with increased microglial recruitment around amyloid plaques, reduces the amyloid-β plaque burden, improves synaptic plasticity, and can restore memory function.

[0011] Accordingly, while striving to develop a therapeutic agent for central nervous system diseases that inhibits Dyrk1A, the inventors discovered that a novel compound according to the present invention exhibits high inhibitory activity against Dyrk1A, thereby being useful for the prevention or treatment of central nervous system diseases, and thus completed the present invention.

After incubation at room temperature for 40 minutes, the reaction was stopped by adding phosphoric acid to the example compound. Then, a portion of the reaction was spotted onto a filter, washed four times in 0.425% phosphoric acid for 4 minutes each and once in methanol, followed by drying and scintillation counting.

[0312] The results of measuring DYRK1A activity when the compound of the example according to the present invention was treated at 0.3 μM are shown in Table 3, and the DYRK1A activity of the compound of Example 19 at different concentrations was measured and is shown in Figure 1.

[0314] As shown in FIG. 1 and Table 3, it was confirmed that the compounds of the examples according to the present invention exhibit an excellent DYRK1A activity inhibitory effect, and in particular, it was confirmed that the half-inhibitory concentration of the compound of Example 19 is 22 nM (Fig. 1).

[0316] <Experimental Example 3> Western blotting

[0317] SH-SY5Y cells (1 × 10⁶ / mL) were treated with Compound 19 at concentrations of 1, 3, and 10 μM for 1 hour, followed by treatment with MPP+ (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat# D048). Cells were lysed using RIPA buffer (Elpis Biotech, EBA-1149) supplemented with Pierce Protease Inhibitor, EDTA Free (Thermo Fisher, Cat# A32955), and Phosphatase Inhibitor (Thermo Fisher, Cat# A32857). The lysate was incubated on ice for 30 minutes, then centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 10 minutes at 4°C, and the supernatant was collected. Protein concentration was measured using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher, Cat# 23228). An equal amount of protein was mixed with Protein 5X Sample Buffer (Cat# EBA-1052), boiled at 95°C for 5 minutes, and then separated by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel prepared with 10x Tris-Glycine SDS Buffer (Cat# CBT015). The protein was transferred to a PVDF membrane using Tris-Glycine Transfer Buffer. The membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature with 5% BSA (Bovogen, Cat# BSAS0.1) added to 10x TBS (10x Tris-buffered saline, pH 7.4, CBT005) containing 0.1% Tween-20 (TBST), and then incubated overnight at 4°C with a Phospho-Tau (Ser202, Thr205) monoclonal antibody (Cell Signaling, Cat# MN1020) diluted in 5% BSA / TBST. After washing, the membrane was incubated with an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 hour at room temperature. Protein bands were visualized using an ECL detection kit and imaged using a chemiluminescence detection system.GAPDH (Cell Signaling, Cat# 5174S) was used as a loading control.

[0318] The activity of DYRK1A on the hyperphosphorylation of tau has been revealed in previous studies (J Biol Chem 2007 282(48) 34850, Aging Cell 2019 18 e13000). Therefore, we evaluated the potential DYRK1A inhibitory efficacy of the compound of Example 19 on tau phosphorylation in human neuroblastoma cells SH-SY5Y.

[0319] The results of measuring the p-tau protein expression amount at different concentrations of the compound of Example 19 according to the present invention are shown in Figure 2.

[0320] As a result, as shown in Figure 2, it was shown that p-tau expression was significantly reduced by treatment with the compound of Example 19 in a concentration-dependent manner.

[0322] From the results of the above experimental examples, it was confirmed that the compound represented by Formula 1 according to the present invention not only exhibits high inhibitory activity against DYRK1A, but is also very stable in metabolic reactions and inhibits tau phosphorylation by inhibiting DYRK1A. From this, the compound represented by Formula 1 according to the present invention can be usefully used in the treatment of central nervous system diseases related to DYRK1A.
