Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and in particular relates to a fusidic acid derivative and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fusidic acid (FA) is a tetracyclic triterpenoid compound isolated from fungi. It was first isolated from Fusidium coccineum in 1960. FA acts as an inhibitor of protein synthesis and can bind to EF-G-GDP to block peptide synthesis. Since 1962, FA has been clinically used for systemic and localized staphylococcal infections, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and coagulase-negative staphylococcal infections. Although FA is effective against Gram-positive bacteria, it cannot be taken up by Gram-negative bacteria due to the obstruction of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, so it is ineffective against Gram-negative bacteria.

[0003] FA and its derivatives have been shown to have a wide range of pharmacological activities, including antibacterial, antiparasitic, antituberculosis, anticancer, tumor multidrug resistance (MDR) reversal, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antiviral activities in vitro and in vivo. However, the semi-synthesis, bioactivity, and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of FA derivatives have remained in the development stage for nearly 20 years. Despite the extensive research and development of FA in recent years, there are still considerable challenges in its effective derivatization due to the limited number of studies on its pharmacological activities and mechanisms of action to date. FA has a short half-life after oral absorption, and therefore, frequent dosing is necessary to maintain adequate blood drug concentrations, which leads to large fluctuations in drug concentrations and increases the risk of adverse clinical outcomes, which limits the application of FA in clinical use. Considering that triterpenes are known to have a wide range of pharmacological activities, other new pharmacological effects of FA remain to be discovered. In view of the above challenges, the following aspects will be of great value to future drug development and clinical application research of FA:

[0004] (1) Prolonging the half-life of FA by adopting appropriate formulations or chemical methods. For example, FA can be administered in a liposome-encapsulated or structurally modified form that blocks the 21-COOH metabolic site.

[0005] (2) From the perspective of pharmacology and mechanism, further research is needed to investigate the potential pharmacological activity of FA and expand its scope of use. At the same time, more research on the mechanism of action will provide a better understanding of how FA works. In addition, highly sensitive in vitro studies do not always produce the same results in vivo, so a large number of in vivo studies must be conducted to verify its effectiveness.

[0006] (3) Synthesize new derivatives by structural modification at the confirmed modification sites or other potentially available sites of FA to explore new drugs with higher activity and better pharmaceutical properties.

[0007] (4) As a clinically applied drug, FA has the potential to be repositioned as an anti-tuberculosis or anti-malarial drug, which requires more research in these areas. The anti-tumor, tumor MDR reversal, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal activities of FA are newly discovered biological activities in recent years and have great research value.

[0125] Application Example In vitro antibacterial test of fusidic acid derivatives in Escherichia coli

[0126] Take E. coli that has been cultured in a constant temperature incubator (37°C) for 18 to 24 hours, take 0.5 turbidity standard bacterial suspension to 0.5 turbidity standard solution, and dilute the above bacterial suspension to 1:100 with LB broth for later use. Add LB broth to the first column of the 96-well plate, add 100 μL of LB broth to the remaining wells, use a spray gun to draw 100 μL of the solution in the first column of the well plate to the second column, mix well and draw 100 μL to the third column, and dilute to the 9th column by analogy, and draw 100 μL from the 9th column of the well plate and discard it. The 10th column is a growth control without antibiotics. Add 100 μL of diluted bacterial solution to each well of the 96-well plate (the final concentrations of antibiotics in the first column to the 9th column are 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 μg / mL, respectively). The inoculated 96-well plate was placed in a 37°C incubator for incubation for 16 to 20 hours, and the growth of bacteria was observed to obtain the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC).

[0127] A similar method was used to study the inhibitory effect of fusidic acid derivative compounds and fusidic acid derivative compounds in combination with peptide SLAP-S25 on Escherichia coli: LB broth (100 μL, containing 8 μg / mL SLAP-S25) was added to all wells of a 96-well plate, and 512 μg / mL of antibiotics (100 μL, 512 μg / mL) was added to the first column of the wells and mixed thoroughly. From the first column of the wells, multiple dilutions were performed to the 9th column, and 100 μL was drawn from the 9th column of the wells and discarded. The 10th column of the wells was a growth control without antibiotics. 100 μL of the diluted bacterial suspension was added to each well (the concentrations of antibiotics in the 1st to 9th columns of the wells were 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 μg / mL, respectively, and the concentration of SLAP-S25 was 4 μg / mL). The inoculated 96-well plate was placed in a 37°C incubator for 16 to 20 hours to observe the growth of bacteria, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the drug for the drug-resistant bacteria to be tested when SLAP-S25 was used in combination with antibiotics was obtained. The results are shown in Table 1 below:

[0128] Table 2 Growth of Escherichia coli (+) after different medications

[0129]

[0130]

[0131] Table 2 shows the growth of Escherichia coli (+) when fusidic acid derivatives and fusidic acid derivatives are used in combination with the peptide SLAP-S25. The anti-Gram-negative bacteria ability of the FA derivatives was tested using Escherichia coli as a model. The results in Table 2 show that the FA derivatives can effectively kill bacteria in the presence of a polypeptide adjuvant. At the same time, the different bioorthogonal functional groups carried by the prepared FA derivatives can be used for covalent cross-linking with polypeptides to prepare antibacterial composite molecules, improve delivery efficiency and drug synergy, and obtain better antibacterial molecules.
