Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical applications, and particularly to the application of trienone compounds in anti-tumor drugs. Background Art

[0002] Cancer is one of the important diseases that have attracted worldwide attention. Worldwide, the number of newly diagnosed cancer cases can reach tens of millions every year. At present, the treatment of cancer is developing in the direction of multidisciplinary and multi-faceted combined treatment. The drug treatment of cancer is also undergoing various changes and developments. Emerging drug therapies, such as ADC drug (antibody-drug conjugate) therapy, CAR-T cell therapy, and radioligand therapy, etc., show great therapeutic potential. This also provides more options for the treatment of patients with cancer. Colorectal cancer is one of the common cancers worldwide, with high incidence and mortality rates. At present, the main treatments for colorectal cancer are still common methods such as surgical resection and chemotherapy, and its treatment effect is difficult to meet the treatment needs of patients. Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the human breast epithelial tissue and has become one of the diseases affecting the lives and health of women globally due to its high incidence and mortality rates. At present, it is difficult to cure breast cancer, with high recurrence and metastasis rates, and cases of tumor drug resistance are often reported, and the drug resistance mechanism has not been clarified. Therefore, the development of new anti-tumor drugs is of great significance for the treatment of cancer currently.

[0003] Due to its advantages such as high purity, relatively low production cost, rapid development, and continuous innovation, chemically synthesized drugs have great competitiveness in terms of the efficiency and cost of treating diseases, and also have huge prospects in terms of innovation and market potential. The research and development of anti-tumor compounds is an important field in the directions of medicine and medicinal chemistry, and significant progress has been made in recent years, with the continuous emergence of some anti-tumor drugs targeting specific molecular targets. The research prospect of anti-tumor compounds is broad, and the development of new discoveries and innovative drugs is expected to provide more strategies for the treatment of tumors.

[0004] Trienones, its chemical name: spiro[5.5]undecane-1,4,7-triene-3,9-dione, it has three carbon-carbon double bonds and two ketone groups. It is an unstable compound that easily reacts with itself and is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and is an important structural unit of various natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients. At present, there are only a small number of studies on the activity of trienone derivatives in inhibiting cancer cell proliferation. Trienone compounds or their derivatives have great anti-tumor research value, and designing new drugs with such compounds as the structural unit will provide new solutions for the treatment of tumors in the future.

[0025] The trienone compounds used in the following examples have been disclosed in the literature "Zhang Y, Ma C, Struwe J, et al. Electrooxidative Dearomatization of Biaryls: Synthesis of Tri- and Difluoromethylated Spiro[5.5]trienones[J]. Chemical Science, 2021. DOI: 10.1039 / D1SC02682H.", and their structural formulas are as follows (also as Figure 1 shown):

[0026]

[0027] Example 1

[0028] Colon cancer cells S1 and breast cancer cells MDAMB-453 were cultured in high-glucose medium DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum, penicillin (50 kU / L) and streptomycin (50 mg / L). The culture temperature was 37 °C in an environment containing 5% CO 2 environment.

[0029] In vitro activity experiments of the above 21 compounds against colon cancer cells S1 and breast cancer cells MDAMB-453 were carried out by the MTT method, and the clinically common chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin was used as a positive control. The specific implementation method was as follows: Different cancer cells were placed in a 96-well plate (3000 cells / well) and cultured at 37 °C for 12 h. After they adhered to the wall, different doses of the compounds and the positive drug were added respectively, and the culture was continued for 72 h. Then, 10 μL (5 mg / mL) of MTT was added to each well, and the incubation was continued in the incubator for 4 h. After the incubation was completed, the liquid in the well plate was aspirated, 50 μL of DMSO was added to each well, and the incubation was carried out on a low-speed shaker for 10 minutes. Finally, the absorbance value at 490 nm was measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader, and the IC50 values of different compounds against cancer cells were calculated.

[0030] The IC50 values of the 21 compounds against the two types of cells for 72 h are shown in Table 1. The results showed that these compounds had good inhibitory effects on colon cancer cells S1 and breast cancer cells MDAMB-453, and the IC50 values of the vast majority of the compounds were below 100 μM. Compared with the positive drug cisplatin, the IC50 values of the trienone compounds 3s, 4h, 4i, and 4k against intestinal cancer cells S1 were lower than those of cisplatin (18.1 μM), and the anticancer activity was 2 to 3 times that of cisplatin. Compound 3s showed good inhibitory activity, and its inhibitory activity against the two types of cancer cells was higher than that of the positive drug cisplatin, and its IC50 (μM) values were 7.36 (S1) and 1.01 (MDAMB-453) respectively.

[0033]

[0034] The above results indicate that the trienone compounds described in the present invention have good inhibitory effects on colon cancer and breast cancer. The inhibitory effects of some compounds are better than those of the clinical drug cisplatin. It can be inferred from this that the above compounds have good inhibitory effects on tumor cells. Therefore, the trienone compounds described in the present invention have the potential for further development and preparation into anti-cancer drugs, and have very good application value and prospects.
