Description
Title of the Invention NOVEL COMPOUND AND USE THEREOF Technical Field The present invention relates to a novel compound, or a stereoisomer, a solvate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and to its use for preventing or treating diseases associated with the reduced expression of SOX9. Background Art Osteoarthritis (OA), also widely known as degenerative arthritis, is a disease that currently afflicts more than 7% of the world’s population (approximately 528 million people). Conventional treatments for osteoarthritis are largely focused on artificial joint replacement surgery and painrelief therapies based on prescriptions of cartilage-protecting agents, such as hyaluronic acid, and anti-inflammatory drugs. However, due to population aging, the incidence of osteoarthritis is increasing worldwide. As a result, there is a demand for the development of direct osteoarthritis therapeutics rather than mere pain relief. One of the causative factors of osteoarthritis is the gradual loss of cartilage that arises from destruction of articular cartilage tissue caused by dysregulation of the enzymes of the anabolic and catabolic pathways of articular cartilage proteins. Accordingly, research is being conducted to inhibit the progression of osteoarthritis through the development of disease-modifying OA drugs (DMOADs) that target these regulatory factors. The recently developed Lorecivivint (SM04690) is one example of an osteoarthritis DMOAD. SOX9 (SRY-Box Transcription Factor 9), one of the atypical proteins that play a key role in regulating the expression of extracellular matrix genes within chondrocytes, is known to regulate the expression of cartilaginous extracellular matrix genes, such as collagens, which are essential for articular cartilage. In particular, in osteoarthritis patient groups, reductions in the expression and transcriptional activity of SOX9 have been identified. The expression levels of SOX9 and its target proteins have been observed to decrease markedly with the severity of the disease. One of the mechanisms by which the activity of a transcription factor is regulated is the condensation of transcription factors. As condensation is induced, the resulting transcription factor condensates can regulate the expression of genes. That is, when the condensation of the SOX9 transcription factor is induced, the expression and transcriptional effect of SOX9 can be increased through the condensates. Therefore, there is a need for research and development of DMOADs capable of directly treating osteoarthritis by inducing the condensation of the SOX9 transcription factor and thereby increasing the transcriptional efficiency of SOX9. Detailed Description of the Invention Technical Problem One object of the present invention is to provide a novel compound, or a stereoisomer, a solvate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that is capable of inducing the condensation of the SOX9 transcription factor. Another object of the present invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating diseases associated with reduced expression of SOX9, by using a novel compound, or a stereoisomer, a solvate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that is capable of inducing condensation of the SOX9 transcription factor.

Experimental Example 1: Evaluation of SOX9 Transcriptional Activity To confirm whether the compounds would enhance the SOX9 transcriptional activity, a luciferase assay capable of measuring SOX9 transcriptional activity was carried out using the following experimental method. Mouse primary chondrocytes were extracted from mouse cartilage. The extracted cells were stabilized in a low-oxygen-environment incubator (O2 3%, CO2 5%). Here, the medium used was DMEM (Dulbecco Modified Eagle Medium, LM001-05, Welgene) supplemented with 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum, Gibco). After cell stabilization, hyaluronidase type I-S (Sigma-Aldrich, Hase) was treated for 4 hours for transfection of the luciferase plasmid. For transfection, Metafectene pro reagent (Biontex) was used to co-treat cells for 6 hours with the 4X48pCol2a1-Luciferase plasmid, the expression of which is promoted by SOX9 transcriptional activity, and a Renilla luciferase plasmid, which is constitutively expressed as a transfection control. The 4X48pCol2a1-Luciferase plasmid and Renilla luciferase plasmid were as described in Kim, S. et al. “Tankyrase inhibition preserves osteoarthritic cartilage by coordinating cartilage matrix anabolism via effects on SOX9 PARylation,” Nat Commun 10, 4898 (2019). After 6 hours, the medium was replaced with a culture medium containing the compound. Here, each compound was dissolved in DMSO at a level of about 5 mM to 10 mM and dissolved in the medium to provide a final concentration of 7.5 mM. After 48 hours, the cells were lysed and reacted with the luciferase substrate using a Dual Luciferase Assay Kit (Promega), and luminescence from the luciferase (relative to DMSO) was measured using a microplate reader. The results were classified according to the criteria below and shown in Table 6, providing the graph of FIG. 1. ++++: 8 or more / +++: less than 8, 5 or more / ++: less than 5, 2 or more / +: less than 2, greater than 1 [Table 6] Example Comp’d No. SOX9 activity Example Comp’d No. SOX9 activity Example Comp’d No. SOX9 activity 1 B8 ++ 27 C26 +++ 53 D14 ++ 2 C1 ++++ 28 C27 + 54 D15 ++ 3 C2 ++ 29 C28 ++++ 55 D16 ++ 4 C3 ++ 30 C29 +++ 56 D17 ++ 5 C4 ++ 31 C30 ++ 57 D18 ++ 6 C5 +++ 32 C31 ++ 58 D19 ++ 7 C6 ++++ 33 C32 ++ 59 D20 +++ 8 C7 ++++ 34 C33 ++ 60 D21 ++ 9 C8 ++++ 35 C34 ++ 61 D22 ++ 10 C9 ++++ 36 C35 ++ 62 D23 ++ 11 C10 ++ 37 C36 ++ 63 D24 ++ 12 C11 ++ 38 C37 +++ 64 D25 ++ 13 C12 ++ 39 C38 ++++ 65 D26 + 14 C13 ++ 40 D1 + 68 D29 +++ 15 C14 ++ 41 D2 + 69 D30 + 16 C15 ++ 42 D3 + 70 D31 ++ 17 C16 ++ 43 D4 ++ 71 D32 + 18 C17 ++ 44 D5 ++ 74 C43 ++ 19 C18 ++ 45 D6 ++ 75 C39 +++ 20 C19 ++ 46 D7 ++ 76 C40 +++ 21 C20 ++ 47 D8 ++ 77 C41 ++ 22 C21 ++ 48 D9 ++ 79 C44 ++++ 23 C22 ++ 49 D10 ++ 80 C45 ++++ 24 C23 + 50 D11 ++ 81 C46 ++ 25 C24 ++++ 51 D12 ++ 26 C25 ++ 52 D13 ++ Referring to Table 6 and FIG. 1, it was confirmed that the compounds of the present invention have an excellent SOX9 transcriptional activity effect. The compounds of the Examples showed different degrees of effect of increasing transcriptional activity (FIG. 2a). When changes in transcriptional activity according to the induction of condensation were examined, a statistically significant correlation was found between the condensation phenomenon and the transcriptional activity effect (FIG. 2b). This means that, at the SOX9 protein level, the condensation-inducing capacity of a drug has an impact on, and is associated with, drug efficacy. Experimental Example 2: Induction of SOX9 Condensation and Evaluation of Transcriptional Activity In a 100-mm dish, 9 x 105 cells to be transfected were seeded and grown for two days in a cell incubator. The grown cells were transfected with 7 pg of an SOX9-eGFP plasmid capable of overexpression in cells, using a transfection reagent (Poly-jet). Here, the cells were exposed to an FBS-free DMEM medium for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the SOX9-eGFP plasmid and Polyjet were mixed in DMEM and added to the cells after waiting for 10 minutes. After reacting in the incubator for 4 hours, an FBS-containing DMEM medium was added, and the cells were placed in the incubator for two days. Thereafter, the cells were detached using a scraper and centrifuged. Only the cell pellets were frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored in a -80°C freezer. A cell lysis buffer containing 0.2% Triton X-100, 1 mM EDTA, 50 mM HEPES, 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1% protease inhibitor cocktail, 1% phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (tyrosine, serine / threonine), and 2 mM TCEP was added to the cell pellets to disperse the pellets. The dispersed cells were lysed using an ultrasonic homogenizer, and the lysate was centrifuged (15,000xg, 10 minutes) to obtain a supernatant. The total protein concentration of the supernatant obtained was measured using a DC (detergent-compatible) assay, and the SOX9-eGFP concentration was measured using a fluorometer. The cell lysate, with its concentration measured, was used immediately or frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C. Through the Halo-Tag purification method, SOX9, which is relatively difficult to purify in E. coli, was expressed and purified from HEK293T. Even when SOX9 was used (instead of the lysate), the correlation between the induction of condensation and the degree of transcriptional activity was reproduced, thereby confirming the validity of using the lysate (FIG. 2b). The Example compounds were diluted to 1 / 100 of the concentration to be reacted, which were then transferred to tubes according to each reaction volume. The prepared cell lysate was added to the tubes containing Compound B8 or Compound C9 and reacted. The lysate reacted with the drug was transferred to a 96-well plate with cover-glass surfaces and reacted at room temperature for 1 hour until the reaction was complete. The 96-well plate, after the reaction was complete, was transferred to a confocal fluorescence microscope, and fluorescence imaging was performed. The fluorescence images taken were analyzed using an in-house MATLAB code. K-mean clustering was used to discriminate between condensates and non-condensates, and the fluorescence intensity, area, shape, and number of the condensates were analyzed. As a result, it was verified that, compared to DMSO, Compound B8 and Compound C9 induced the condensation of SOX9 (FIG. 3a). Together with this, it was confirmed, using a luciferase plasmid that responds specifically to the transcriptional activity of SOX9, that Compound B8 and Compound C9, which induce the condensation formation, increase the activity of the SOX9 transcription factor (FIG. 3b). In particular, Compound B8 increased SOX9 transcriptional activity by approximately 2-fold, whereas Compound C9 markedly enhanced the activity by about 8-fold. Here, due to a structural change in Compound C9, the SOX9 condensation formation was lost upon a single-atom change, such as a change in the position of a nitrogen atom or substitution, and it was confirmed that whether such condensation was induced affected the regulation of transcriptional activity (FIGS. 4a and 4b). This indicates that the induction of condensation and the regulation of transcriptional activity occur based on the chemical structure of the compound. Experimental Example 3: Evaluation of the Degree of Condensation According to the Deletion Region of SOX9 It was investigated by what mechanism Compound C9 contributes to enhancing the cartilage-regenerating effect. Specifically, based on Compound C9, which had been confirmed to be the most efficacious, the binding site of the drug was investigated. SOX9 is divided into structured and unstructured regions; in particular, IDR as an unstructured region is so large as to constitute about 80% of the protein (FIG. 5a). To investigate which region of interaction induces the condensation effect of Compound C9, SOX9 variants in which each region was deleted were prepared. As in the above Experimental Examples, cell lysates of the SOX9 variants were prepared, and it was confirmed that when C9 was deleted in the IDR region corresponding to the C-terminus of the protein, the condensation phenomenon was lost (FIG. 5b). Furthermore, in order to narrow down the binding site, deletion variants were constructed at 35-amino acid intervals across the C-terminal region, and cell lysates of the variants were prepared and examined. Here, when the regions corresponding to regions 8 and 9, where aromatic amino acids are clustered, were deleted, the condensation phenomenon was confirmed to decrease sharply (FIG. 5c). Experimental Example 4: Change in the Degree of SOX9 Condensation According to Mutation of Aromatic Amino Acids in Regions 8 and 9 of the SOX9 C-Terminus Cell lysates expressing mutants in which aromatic amino acids were substituted with alanine were prepared, and the importance of aromatic amino acids was confirmed. As in the case of the variants in which regions 8 and 9 were deleted, mutations of aromatic amino acids corresponding to regions 8 and 9 reduced the condensation phenomenon induced by Compound C9 (FIG. 6). It was confirmed through this that Compound C9 induces SOX9 condensation through interaction with the region where aromatic amino acids are clustered, in the unstructured region of the C-terminus of SOX9. Experimental Example 5: Identification of Proteins within Condensation-Induced SOX9 Condensates Since condensates are often formed by multiple proteins rather than by a single protein, to identify proteins that co-condense with SOX9 upon treatment with Compound C9, SOX9 was fused to TurboID, and proteins located within 10 nm of SOX9 upon treatment with Compound C9 were biotinylated. Biotin-bound proteins were separated using Streptavidin-Bead, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC / MS) was performed (FIG. 7a). Each mass spectrometry experiment was performed three times for each condition. Through mass spectrometry, in the C9-treated group compared to DMSO, proteins that were observed statistically significantly more frequently were identified as proteins involved in transcriptional regulation, such as Pol2, YTHDF3, CCAR2, MBNL1, NDUFA10, MYO1C, TAF5, and chromatin remodelers (KAT6A, KAT8). Proteins known to act together with SOX9, such as SOX5 and SOX6, were also detected (FIG. 7b). Experimental Example 6: Confirmation of Disorder of Proteins and Evaluation of Similarity to SOX9-C-IDR Through Spatial Frequency Analysis The IDR regions of the proteins detected significantly in C9- and DMSO-treated samples were specified using sequence information through Metapredict. Here, it was confirmed that the proteins detected upon Compound C9 treatment, compared to DMSO, contained a large amount of IDRs (FIG. 8a). Since IDRs are known to play an important role in condensation, this indirectly suggests that Compound C9 induces SOX9 condensation. Because Compound C9 induced condensation by targeting the aromatic amino acids of the SOX9 IDR, it was confirmed, through mass spectrometry, whether the IDRs of the detected proteins contained the targets of Compound C9. A one-dimensional binary vector was constructed, with aromatic amino acids in the IDR of the protein assigned a value of 1 and other amino acids assigned a value of 0. It was subjected to a wavelet transform. The transformed information includes information on the density of aromatic amino acids as a function of time (position) and frequency. Cross-correlation analysis between the wavelet-transformed data of the detected proteins and the data corresponding to the C-IDR of SOX9 was used to compare the similarity to the C-IDR of SOX9. It was found from this that, in the samples treated with Compound C9, IDRs having patterns similar to that of the SOX9 C-IDR had a higher probability of having a higher similarity score (FIG. 8b). Since proteins with high similarity to the SOX9 C-IDR pattern are originally rare, in order to exclude the possibility that they were detected less frequently for that reason, the conditional probability was calculated by considering the number of proteins corresponding to each similarity score. It was found from this that IDRs with high similarity scores had a higher probability of being found in samples treated with Compound C9 (FIG. 8c). These results support the fact that Compound C9 specifically induces condensate formation according to the specific pattern (spatial frequency) created by the aromatic amino acids in the SOX9 C-IDR. Experimental Example 7: Analysis of SOX9 Condensates Using Super-Resolution Fluorescence Microscope dSTORM To investigate the effect of the drugs on changes in SOX9 condensates within cells, SOX9 was labeled by IF (immunofluorescence staining), and fluorescence imaging was performed. Since transcription-factor condensates such as SOX9 condensates have a size on the order of 100 nm to 1 pm, changes in SOX9 condensates cannot be confirmed at the level of conventional fluorescence microscopy. Therefore, the fluorescence images of FIG. 9 were obtained using dSTORM (direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy), one of the super-resolution microscopes. Experimental Example 8: Evaluation of mRNA Levels of Genes Involved in Cartilage Regeneration and RNA-FISH Analysis In order to investigate the relationship between the observed changes in SOX9 condensates and transcriptional activity, RNA FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) was performed together with dSTORM for Col9a1, Acan, and SOX9, the transcripts whose mRNA levels were highly upregulated in C9-treated samples compared to DMSO, providing the mRNA-level graph of FIG. 10 and the dSTORM fluorescence images of FIG. 11. It was confirmed through RNA-FISH that the positions of the RNA foci and those of the SOX9 condensates observed within the nucleus were well colocalized (FIG. 11). Through image analysis, the size changes of SOX9 condensates observed near the RNA foci in C9 compared to DMSO showed that the size of the SOX9 condensates increased by approximately 30% to 50% (FIGS. 12a and 12b). This was a high level compared to the 2% size change of SOX9 condensates in the nucleus. Therefore, it was found that Compound C9 is involved in changing the size of SOX9 condensates near the RNA, specifically with respect to transcriptional activity. Experimental Example 9: Confirmation of the Effect of the Compound on the Degree of SOX9-DNA Binding Through Cut&Tag To investigate whether the SOX9 condensates altered by the drug are actually involved in transcriptional activity, a Cut&Tag experiment was performed to identify genome-wide DNA regions bound by SOX9. It was confirmed that SOX9 binding to DNA was increased upon drug treatment (FIG. 13). Experimental Example 10: Confirmation of the Change in the Degree of SOX9 Binding to the DNA of Genes Involved in Cartilage Regeneration Upon Compound Treatment When the information on the degree of SOX9 binding to DNA obtained through Cut&Tag was confirmed for SOX9, Col2a1, Col9a1, Chad, Acan, and Comp, which are genes involved in cartilage formation, treatment with Compound C9 was found to increase SOX9 binding throughout the DNA (SOX9, Col2a1, and Chad), or to increase binding at specific regions of the DNA (red box) (Col9a1, Acan, and Comp) (data with DMSO subtracted from C9 data, in yellow) (FIGS. 14a to 14f). These results show that Compound C9 affected the size change of SOX9 condensates and the degree of DNA binding. Experimental Example 11: Evaluation of the Degree of Recovery of Cartilage Tissue in an Osteoarthritis Mouse Model In order to confirm whether Compound C9 helps cartilage formation, an experiment was performed in which Compound C9 was injected intra-articularly a total of 7 times at intervals of 1 week so that the intra-articular concentration was 750 pM, in a mouse model of osteoarthritis (OA) induced by DMM (destabilization of the medial meniscus) surgery (FIG. 15a). In the DMM-operated mouse tissue, when DMSO was treated, recovery did not occur and damage was observed (yellow triangles). In contrast, when the drug was treated, the damaged cartilage tissue was found to have recovered (FIG. 15b). To objectively evaluate the recovery of cartilage tissue, the OARSI Grade (a higher grade indicates greater damage to the cartilage tissue) was assessed through blinded testing by individual researchers. It was confirmed that the OARSI grade was statistically significantly lower when Compound C9 was treated (FIG. 15c). This suggests that Compound C9 can help in the recovery of damaged cartilage tissue. Experimental Example 12: Evaluation of the Degree of Osteoarthritis Alleviation Through Behavioral Experiments To confirm the recovery of osteoarthritis at the behavioral level, weight-bearing and Von- Frey behavioral experiments were performed. The weight-bearing experiment is an experiment that measures the degree to which the operated leg or non-operated leg bears weight upon drug treatment, to confirm the change in the degree of weight-bearing upon treatment with Compound C9 (FIG. 16). When Compound C9 was administered to DMM-induced osteoarthritis (OA) mice, the weight-bearing levels were comparable to those observed in non-OA-induced mice, and the degree of change was significant relative to the DMSO-treated group(FIG. 16). The Von-Frey behavioral experiment assesses cartilage recovery in mice by gently stimulating the plantar surface of the paws and recording the stimulus intensity at which the mice withdraw their paws as the stimulation increases (FIG. 17). When cartilage recovery improves, the intensity of the stimulus that the mice can endure increases. Compared to mice not subjected to OA induction, OA-induced mice were found to be able to endure greater stimulus intensity upon treatment with Compound C9 (FIG. 17). It was confirmed, through these behavioral experimental results, that Compound C9 alleviates osteoarthritis at the behavioral level. Therefore, the present invention has verified that compounds such as Compound C9, which is a cartilage-regenerating substance capable of inducing condensation of SOX9 and thereby exhibiting cartilage-regenerating effects, can be screened.
