Description

Carbocyclic nucleoside, oligonucleotide and preparation method and medical use thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a nucleoside and a nucleotide, a preparation method and medical use thereof, and in particular to a carbocyclic nucleoside and an oligonucleotide, a preparation method and medical use thereof. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acids are one of the fundamental building blocks of life, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Nucleotides are the monomers that make up nucleic acid molecules. They are a class of compounds composed of nitrogenous bases, pentose sugars, and phosphates, and are the phosphate esters of nucleosides. Nucleic acid therapy involves the administration of modified single- or double-stranded nucleotides to the human body as a type of drug or vaccine. Nucleic acid therapy is based on a nucleotide sequence that interacts with messenger RNA (mRNA) through complementary base pairing, inhibiting target protein expression through gene silencing, thereby achieving disease treatment and prevention. Nucleic acid-based therapeutic modalities include antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), small interfering RNA (siRNA), microRNA (miRNA), small activating RNA (saRNA), aptamers, messenger RNA (mRNA), ribozymes, antibody-nucleic acid drug conjugates (ARCs), plasmid DNA, and CRISPR / Cas9. Short chains of nucleotides containing approximately 20 bases are called oligonucleotides, and they primarily include ASOs, siRNAs, aptamers, miRNAs, and saRNAs. ASOs are synthetic single-stranded oligonucleotides, typically consisting of 12 to 30 nucleotides. They bind to target mRNA or pre-mRNA through Watson-Crick base pairing, inducing RNase H nuclease degradation of the RNA strand or sterically interfering with pre-mRNA processing and splicing to regulate gene expression. Fomivirsen was the first commercialized ASO drug, approved by the FDA in 1998. Currently, there are 10 ASO drugs approved for marketing worldwide. siRNAs are double-stranded oligonucleotides, consisting of a sense strand and an antisense strand. They bind to the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) in the cytoplasm. Under the action of the argouate 2 protein, the double strand depolymerizes, the sense strand cleaves, and the antisense strand binds to the mRNA in the RISC, causing mRNA degradation, thereby regulating gene expression. In 2018, the FDA approved the first siRNA drug, Patisiran, for marketing, and by 2023, five siRNA drugs had been approved for marketing. Aptamers are single-stranded nucleic acids, typically 25 to 50 bases in length, with a unique three-dimensional conformation. They can target biological components such as proteins on the surface or within diseased tissue cells, blocking them from performing their functions through steric hindrance. They can be used as antibody analogs. Pegaptanib is a nucleic acid aptamer drug approved for marketing by the FDA in 2006, and several such drugs are currently in clinical trials. miRNAs are non-coding RNAs of 19 to 24 nucleotides in length. They bind to mRNA within cells, regulating its transcription and inhibiting protein translation to regulate target gene expression.saRNA is a short double-stranded oligonucleotide with a structure similar to siRNA. It can activate gene transcription and exert its therapeutic effect by recruiting endogenous transcription complexes to target genes, increasing mRNA expression, and upregulating target proteins.

[0003] Synthetic oligonucleotides for gene regulation have been used for half a century. However, unmodified oligonucleotides are unstable and easily degraded by endogenous nucleases in the blood. They are rapidly cleared by the liver and kidneys, have a short half-life, and have low bioavailability, making them difficult to develop into drugs. Chemical modification has been used to improve the resistance of oligonucleotides to enzymatic degradation and increase their affinity for their targets, leading to the first oligonucleotide drug being marketed in 1998. Chemical modifications of nucleic acids primarily include phosphate backbone modifications, base modifications, and ribose modifications. The most typical backbone modification is phosphorothioation, in which a non-bridging oxygen atom of the phosphate group in the nucleotide chain is replaced by a sulfur atom, significantly enhancing resistance to nuclease degradation. Another backbone modification is the replacement of the 3' oxygen atom of the ribose ring with a 3' amine. Thiocarbamates and phosphoramidites have demonstrated high affinity and nuclease resistance. Base modifications typically introduce groups such as carboxyl or amino groups at the 5' position of pyrimidine bases and the 8' position of purine bases. Ribose modifications primarily occur at the 2' position, including 2'-O-methyl, 2'-O-methoxyethyl, and 2'-F modifications, which can lead to varying degrees of improved affinity and nuclease resistance. Linking the 4' and 2' riboses to form bicyclic systems such as locked nucleic acids (LNA) and bridged nucleic acids (BNA) significantly improves affinity. Drug researchers are improving drugability through various modifications, enabling the continuous development and marketing of new nucleic acid drugs. However, there is no ideal molecule, and existing nucleic acid drugs still have room for improvement in terms of affinity, nuclease resistance, and in vivo stability.

The results were analyzed by HPLC (Thermo UltiMate 3000, Waters XBridge analytical column). TM Oligonucleotide degradation was measured over time using a Shield RP18 3.5 μm (4.6 mm × 150 mm). The buffer used (final concentration) was 50 mM TrisHCl (pH 8.0), 10 mM MgCl2, and was thoroughly degassed before measurement. HPLC quantification conditions are shown below.

[0184] The results in Figure 1 show that even after 40 minutes of nuclease treatment, oligonucleotides containing the carbocyclic nucleoside compound X of the present invention at the 3' end still showed over 70% unreacted residues, indicating resistance to degradation. Oligonucleotides containing compound X at the third position on the 3' end also showed over 10% unreacted residues after 5 minutes of nuclease treatment. In contrast, oligonucleotides containing all-natural thymidine were almost completely degraded after 5 minutes of nuclease treatment. Therefore, oligonucleotides containing the carbocyclic nucleoside compound X of the present invention exhibited superior enzyme resistance to oligonucleotides containing all-natural thymidine.

[0185] Industrial applicability

[0186] According to the present invention, a conformationally locked carbocyclic nucleoside and an oligonucleotide are provided. The oligonucleotide comprising the conformationally locked carbocyclic nucleoside has high binding affinity and nuclease resistance, and is expected to be used in nucleic acid drugs.
