Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and specifically relates to a naphthylimide-platinum (IV) complex capable of reversing glioma progression mediated by Lamp2 and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common invasive primary brain malignancy. Currently, the median survival of patients receiving radiotherapy combined with temozolomide chemotherapy is only 12-16 months. Glioma is characterized by diffuse infiltration, incomplete surgical resection, and easy development of drug resistance. Cisplatin is a platinum-based DNA alkylating agent and a first-line chemotherapy drug for the treatment of various cancers including gliomas. It can inhibit tumor cell division and induce apoptosis-mediated cell death by inducing DNA damage. However, cisplatin induces protective autophagy, which is prone to cisplatin resistance in several cancers such as human lung adenocarcinoma, ovarian cancer, and GBM. Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent degradation pathway that is associated with resistance to tumor chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy, and the lack of effective treatment for gliomas is closely related to them.

[0003] Autophagy promotes the immune escape process by regulating the PD-1 / PD-L1 checkpoint pathway, MHC class I / II molecules, and the proliferation and differentiation of various immune cells in the tumor microenvironment; therefore, inhibiting autophagy can enhance the therapeutic effect of immune checkpoint blockade. It has been reported that inhibiting autophagy can promote glioblastoma cell senescence, prevent glioma progression, and lead to SASP spectrum stimulation of antitumor immunity. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an important role in the tumor microenvironment. There are two main subtypes of TAMs: M1 and M2; repolarizing TAMs from M2 to M1 is an effective cancer treatment strategy. A study found that the autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) can repolarize M2 macrophages to M1 phenotype in in vitro and in vivo mouse laryngeal cancer models. Therefore, anti-tumor drugs targeting autophagy and TAMs have become a hot topic in current research. The 1,8-naphthalimide pharmacophore can be embedded in DNA and produce anti-tumor activity through the p53 pathway, lysosome, mitochondrial pathway, etc. Inspired by these related studies and the continued interest in developing new platinum (IV) drugs, the present invention combines the active basic fragment naphthalimide with cisplatin or oxaliplatin to synthesize a series of naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complexes. The anticancer effects of the naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complexes were evaluated, and their effects on autophagy and macrophage polarization were explored.

[0004] The present invention first synthesizes the anti-tumor lead compound NTCDI-Pt, and then studies its inhibition of lysosomal uptake of platinum ions and macrophage-dependent autophagy based on regulating lysosomal function, and promotes HMGB1 (high mobility group protein B1) extracellular secretion to induce tumor-associated macrophage M1 polarization to inhibit glioma progression, providing a potential strategy for the treatment of GBM. The present invention explores a new type of autophagy inhibitor and finds that cisplatin promotes autophagy and increases the number of lysosomes by upregulating the expression of Lamp2, so that the lysosomes take in too many platinum ions from the cytoplasm; resulting in platinum (IV) being unable to bind to nuclear DNA, leading to glioma resistance. The compound NTCDI-Pt downregulates the expression of Lamp2 by activating TFEB (transcription factor EB) phosphorylation, thereby regulating lysosomal function to inhibit lysosomal uptake of platinum ions and increase the uptake of platinum ions by the cell nucleus. NTCDI-Pt also inhibits protective autophagy by regulating TFEB nuclear translocation; promotes HMGB1 extracellular secretion to activate macrophage function to prevent the immune escape of Pt chemotherapy drugs.

[0005] The present invention introduces naphthalene imide modified with nitro or chlorine atoms into the tetravalent platinum axial ligand for the first time, selects two divalent platinum drugs, cisplatin and oxaliplatin, which are widely used in clinical practice, and then compares the effects of different parent platinum cores on the antitumor activity.

In addition, the experiments of the present invention show that the extracellular secretion of HMGB1 triggered by the compound NTCDI-Pt can effectively activate the function of macrophages and make them enter the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype.

[0061] In summary, the increased nuclear uptake of platinum ions mediated by decreased lysosomal abundance and the activation of macrophage function synergistically enhanced the classical DNA damage of the compound NTCDI-Pt. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0117] Test Example 1: In vitro antitumor activity test

[0118] The in vitro antitumor activity of the naphthylimide-platinum (IV) complexes (7a, 7b, 9a, 11a, 14a, 14b, 15a, 15b, 16a, 16b) synthesized in the aforementioned examples was tested by the MTT method in colon cancer cells HT-29 and HCT-116; liver cancer cells HepG-2 and Huh-7; breast cancer cells MCF-7; triple-negative breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231; cisplatin-sensitive lung cancer A549 cells and resistant A549cisR cells; and glioma cells U251 and U87. The test results are shown in Table 1. Positive drugs cisplatin and oxaliplatin were selected as controls.

[0119] Table 1 In vitro antitumor activity of naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complexes [e]

[0120]

[0121]

[0122] Note: [a] An average of three measurements.; [b] FI b (fold increase)isdefined as IC 50 (cisplatin) / IC 50 (NTCDI-Pt),FI c (fold increase)is defined as IC 50 (Oxaliplatin) / IC 50 (NTCDI-Pt), introduced to contrast the antitumor effects with the positive drugs.;[c]The RF(resistance factor)is defined as the IC 50 valuein A549cisR cells / IC 50 value in A549 cells.

[0123] It can be seen from the experimental results in Table 1 that the present invention selects cisplatin and oxaliplatin, two classic anti-tumor drugs in clinical trials, as reference drugs (Table 1). A preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) can be obtained based on the in vitro biological results. The tumor inhibitory activity of the synergistic naphthalimide classic core and cisplatin (11a, 16a-16b) is stronger than the synergistic tumor inhibitory activity of oxaliplatin (7a-7b, 9a, 14a-14b, 15a-15b). The activity of oxaliplatin monosubstituted complexes (7a-7b, 11a, 14a-14b) is higher than that of oxaliplatin disubstituted complexes (9a, 15a-15b). Among them, the activity of the chlorine-substituted complex at the 4th position is higher than that of the nitro-substituted complex at the 3rd position. The reason for this result may be related to the potential spatial resistance of platinum drugs. The more axial ligand positions of platinum are connected, the less conducive it is to target lysosomes to exert anti-tumor activity. Among all drugs, NTCDI-Pt has significantly higher anti-tumor efficacy against multiple cancer cell lines, and IC 50 The value is more than 11 times lower than that of commercially available cisplatin and oxaliplatin.

[0124] The resistance index (RF) was 1.24 μM, which was superior to cisplatin (RF = 1.39 μM) and oxaliplatin (RF = 1.94 μM). It showed great potential in overcoming cisplatin resistance. At the same time, compared with cisplatin, NTCDI-Pt inhibited IC 50The FIs were 3.53 and 4.35, respectively. Compared with oxaliplatin, the ICs of U251 and U87 cells 50 The FI values ​​were 3.87 and 4.88, respectively. Based on the above results, the present invention selected GL261-luc cells for in vivo biological detection of NTCDI-Pt. At the same time, U87 and U251 cell lines were selected for in vitro mechanism studies.

[0125] Experimental Example 2: Effect of NTCDI-Pt(16a) on the migration ability of glioma cells

[0126] (1) Wound healing experiment

[0127] In order to evaluate the inhibitory effect of NTCDI-Pt on glioma cell migration, the present invention used a wound healing experiment to detect the effect of NTCDI-Pt on the migration ability of glioma cells. Figure 1 As shown, compared with cisplatin, the inhibitory effect of the compound NTCDI-Pt on glioma cell migration was significantly higher than that of the cisplatin and combined administration groups, and the inhibitory effect was concentration-dependent.

[0128] (2) Transwell chamber experiment

[0129] In order to further verify the ability of NTCDI-Pt to inhibit the migration of glioma cells, the present invention used Transwell assay to detect the effect of NTCDI-Pt on the migration ability of glioma cells. Figure 2 As shown. The compound NTCDI-Pt has an inhibitory effect on glioma cells, and the effect is enhanced in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibitory effect of the compound NTCDI-Pt on glioma cell migration is significantly stronger than that of cisplatin and the combined administration group, and the effect is enhanced in a dose-dependent manner.

[0130] Experimental Example 3: NTCDI-Pt(16a) induces apoptosis of glioma cells

[0131] In order to study the relationship between the anti-tumor activity of NTCDI-Pt and cell apoptosis, the present invention uses the Annexin V / PI double staining method to test the apoptosis of glioma cells induced by NTCDI-Pt and positive drug cisplatin. The present invention incubated glioma cells with NTCDI-Pt at concentrations of 0.5μM, 1μM and 5μM and 5μM cisplatin for 24 hours, collected the cells, and then used flow cytometry to analyze the apoptosis induced by the compounds. The results are as follows Figure 3As shown in A, the apoptosis ratio of glioma cells induced by NTCDI-Pt is positively correlated with its concentration, that is, the ratio of early apoptotic cells is 37.57% and the ratio of late apoptotic cells is 9.96% at a concentration of 5 μM NTCDI-Pt, and the ratio of early apoptotic cells is 25.32% and the ratio of late apoptotic cells is 5.70% at a concentration of 1 μM NTCDI-Pt.

[0132] Experimental Example 4: Antitumor activity of NTCDI-Pt(16a) in vivo

[0133] (1) NTCDI-Pt inhibits the growth of orthotopic tumors in mice with glioma cells

[0134] In vitro experiments have shown that NTCDI-Pt has a good killing effect on glioma cells, in order to verify the in vivo anti-tumor activity of NTCDI-Pt. The present invention implants GL261luc cells (mouse-derived glioma cells, 150,000 / only) into the brain of C57BL / 6j mice at six weeks of age to establish an in situ glioma animal model. Before tumor cells are not inoculated, mice are placed in the same temperature, humidity, food, drinking water and other feeding environments for feeding. The mice inoculated with GL261luc cells observe the state of mice every other day, and the tumor formation of all mice is checked by mouse live fluorescence imaging on the third day after inoculation (D-fluorescein potassium salt is injected to activate fluorescence before imaging), and the mice that have not successfully formed tumors are re-inoculated with tumors. On the seventh day after inoculation, the size of mouse glioma was checked by in vivo fluorescence imaging of mice and the fluorescence value was recorded by taking photos. The mice were evenly divided into six groups (10 in each group) according to the size of the fluorescence value, and marked as the 0th day of administration, including PBS group, naphthylimide ligand group (5 mg / kg), TMZ (40 mg / kg), Cis group (4.5 mg / kg 2.95 mg Pt / kg), Cis+ligand group (4.5 mg / kg 2.95 mg Pt / kg Cis+5 mg / kg ligand), NTCDI-Pt (10.53 mg / kg 2.4 mg Pt / kg). The drug was administered intraperitoneally once every two days for a total of 5 times, during which the state of the mice was observed and the weight of the mice was measured. After two days of observation after the end of the administration, the mice were killed by cervical dislocation and the brain tissue and internal organs were removed to evaluate the organ index of the mice (the ratio of the weight of each organ to the weight of the corresponding mouse). The formula for calculating the tumor inhibition rate is: inhibition rate (%) = [(average fluorescence value of tumor in PBS control group - average fluorescence value of tumor in drug treatment group or positive group) / average fluorescence value of tumor in control group] × 100%).

[0135] Schematic diagram of the NTCDI-Pt in vivo anti-glioma model animal experiment process Figure 3 As shown in B. Figure 3The in vivo imaging results of CD and the tumor fluorescence value show that compared with the control group PBS, the NTCDI-Pt administration group has the most obvious inhibitory effect on tumors, and is slightly better than the positive control drugs TMZ and Cis; followed by the inhibitory effects of the Cis+ligand and Cis administration groups. The effect of the naphthylimide ligand administration group in inhibiting the progression of glioma is not much different from that of the control group PBS. This shows that the main effective structural region of NTCDI-Pt in inhibiting the progression of glioma is not the naphthylimide ligand structure, but is closely related to Pt(IV). During the entire animal experiment, except for the weight of the mice in the cisplatin administration group ( Figure 3 C) Except for the significant decrease in the late stage, the body weight and organ indexes of the mice in the other groups ( Figure 3 There were no obvious abnormal changes in EF. During the treatment period, the NTCDI-Pt group did not show obvious dehydration, anorexia, movement disorders or other toxicity-related symptoms. This suggests that NTCDI-Pt can inhibit the progression of glioma and has no strong toxic reaction to mice.

[0137] To further investigate why NTCDI-Pt exhibited better activity than cisplatin, the present invention measured the absorption and emission wavelengths of NTCDI-Pt and found that NTCDI-Pt partially accumulated in lysosomes. The role of lysosomal function, including autophagy, in GBM cisplatin resistance is critical for its continued clinical application, but how they promote anti-tumor immunity of tumors and macrophages is unclear, and the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, the platinum content in lysosomes and cell nuclei after incubation with NTCDI-Pt or cisplatin was next analyzed. Compared with cisplatin or cisplatin-BafA1 treatment, NTCDI-Pt has the advantage of abundant intranuclear accumulation of platinum ions, but the disadvantage of weak lysosomal accumulation ( Figure 4 A). Increased accumulation of platinum nuclei may lead to stronger DNA damage. Here, the effect of NTCDI-Pt on DNA damage in U87 and U251 cells was analyzed. The results showed that compared with the effects of various ligands, NTCDI-Pt exerted the strongest DNA damage effect ( Figure 4 B). Lamp2 is the most abundant component in the lysosomal membrane and is used to measure the abundance of lysosomes. The present invention measures the abundance of lysosomes by analyzing the immunofluorescence intensity of Lamp2. The present invention observed a significant increase in Lamp2 after cisplatin treatment. Correspondingly, NTCDI-Pt treatment significantly reduced the expression of Lamp2 ( Figure 4 C). Western blot analysis further confirmed that NTCDI-Pt treatment resulted in minimal Lamp2 expression compared with cells treated with other drugs ( Figure 4C) Collectively, these observations suggest that NTCDI-Pt promotes accumulation of Pt cores by impairing lysosomal abundance.

[0138] Experimental Example 6: NTCDI-Pt(16a) inhibits protective autophagy by regulating TFEB nuclear translocation

[0139] In this study, the present invention confirmed that NTCDI-Pt-treated glioma cells inhibited the uptake of platinum ions by lysosomes by regulating TFEB nuclear translocation, reducing lysosomal abundance, and ultimately leading to more platinum ions accumulation in the nucleus. In contrast, cisplatin resistance is caused by increased abnormal uptake of platinum iron by lysosomes by cell-protective autophagy. The possible mechanism diagram is first summarized in Figure 5 A. TFEB links autophagy to lysosomal biogenesis by regulating the expression of genes involved in autophagy. We first analyzed the effect of NTCDI-Pt on autophagic flux in glioblastoma cells. Compared with the increase in LCII expression after the addition of cisplatin, NTCDI-Pt decreased autophagic flux ( Figure 5 B). In order to further clarify the inhibitory effect of NTCDI-Pt on autophagy, the present invention performed immunohistochemical analysis on LC3II and p62 proteins. Dephosphorylated TFEB, the active form, enters the cell nucleus and induces autophagy-lysosome biogenesis. It is worth noting that the subcellular localization of TFEB is strictly controlled by phosphorylation. In addition, the present invention also studied whether the phosphorylation level of TFEB changes ( Figure 5 C). After cisplatin treatment, the relative expression level of p-TFEB in glioma tissues was significantly reduced. In contrast, the p-TFEB level was significantly increased. Further, the present invention analyzed the difference in TFEB content between the nucleus and cytoplasm ( Figure 5 D). After cisplatin treatment, more TFEB translocated to the nucleus, and the addition of BafA1 rescued the nuclear accumulation of TFEB. This is consistent with the report. NTCDI-Pt treatment induced the nuclear translocation of TFEB, which explains that NTCDI-Pt inhibited autophagy and reduced lysosomal abundance.

[0140] Experimental Example 7: NTCDI-Pt(16a) activates tumor-associated macrophages by promoting the extracellular release of HMGB1

[0141] Glioma is a mixed solid tumor with a large number of infiltrating macrophages. At the end of the in vivo experiment, the present invention analyzed the Arg1 + The number of macrophages ( Figure 6 A). Compared with the untreated group, NTCDI-Pt was found to effectively reduce Arg1 +Then the present invention co-cultured RAW264.7 cells with GL261 cells treated with NTCDI-Pt, and the macrophages showed obvious M1 polarization ( Figure 6 B). It has been reported that cisplatin can increase the extracellular release of HMGB1 in a dose-dependent manner. The released HMGB1 acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern, sensitizing the immune system to the recognition of tumor antigens. Therefore, the present invention analyzes the changes in the content of HMGB1 in the nucleus and cytoplasm after NTCDI-Pt and cisplatin treatment ( Figure 6 C). HMGB1 tends to translocate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This suggests that HMGB1 may be released more extracellularly. The changes in HMGB1 content in the culture medium after HMGB1 nuclear translocation were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( Figure 6 D). Glioma cells secrete more HMGB1 in the culture medium. These results indicate that NTCDI-Pt can activate macrophage HMGB1 in a dose-dependent manner. Figure 6 E briefly illustrates that NTCDI-Pt triggers a massive release of HMGB1 from the nucleus to the extracellular environment, and the surrounding TAMs are polarized to a pro-inflammatory phenotype.

[0142] In summary, the present invention screens the activity of the synthesized target compound and determines the lead compound. Through in vivo and in vitro experiments, the anti-tumor activity of the naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complex is clarified. Through the mechanism study of the naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complex, its anti-tumor mechanism and its effect on the immune metabolism inside the tumor are clarified. The present invention mainly obtains the following conclusions:

[0143] 1. The MTT method was used to screen the in vitro activity of the naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complex. The results showed that the naphthalimide-platinum (IV) complex had a significantly better killing effect on tumor cells than the positive control drugs cisplatin and oxaliplatin. It also had a higher selectivity for glioma cells. Through screening, the present invention discovered the best NTCDI-Pt anti-tumor lead compound.

[0144] 2. Wound healing experiments and Transwell experiments proved that NTCDI-Pt can effectively inhibit the migration of glioma cells.

[0145] 3. By establishing an in vivo glioma solid tumor model, it was found that the compound NTCDI-Pt had a high inhibitory effect on the growth of glioma tumors and had no effect on the body weight of mice, indicating that NTCDI-Pt has a relatively safe anti-tumor activity.

[0146] 4. The molecular mechanism of NTCDI-Pt against glioma was investigated at the cellular level in vitro. The following conclusions were obtained: (a): NTCDI-Pt reduced lysosomal abundance and increased platinum ion nuclear uptake. (b): Regulated TFEB nuclear translocation and inhibited protective autophagy. (c): NTCDI-Pt promoted HMGB1 extracellular secretion and activated macrophage function, causing it to enter the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype. The increased platinum ion nuclear uptake mediated by the reduced lysosomal abundance and the activation of macrophage function synergistically enhanced the inhibition of glioma progression by NTCDI-Pt.
