Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals, and particularly relates to a modified nucleoside compound, an oligonucleotide prepared therefrom, and uses thereof. Background Art
[0002] Oligonucleotides are polymers of nucleotides. As nucleic acid inhibitor molecules, oligonucleotides can regulate intracellular mRNA levels and have shown early promise in the treatment of genetic diseases, metabolic diseases, cancers, and viral infectious diseases. Nucleic acid inhibitor molecules can regulate mRNA expression via a set of different mechanisms, including RNA interference (RNAi).
[0003] RNAi is a conserved pathway found in most eukaryotes, in which double-stranded RNA molecules (dsRNA) inhibit the expression of target genes having a complementary sequence to the dsRNA. In a typical RNAi pathway, longer dsRNA is cleaved by an endonuclease (Dicer) into shorter RNA duplexes called small interfering RNAs ("siRNAs"). It has been demonstrated that siRNAs associate with endonucleases, trans-activation response RNA-binding proteins (TRBP), and Argonaute 2 ("Ago2") to form a complex, sometimes referred to as the RNA-induced silencing complex ("RISC"). Ago2 is an endonuclease that uses the antisense strand (also called the guide strand) of the siRNA to direct the sequence-specific cleavage of the target mRNA to cleave the target mRNA.
[0004] Over the years, a variety of double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecule structures have been developed. For example, early work on RNAi inhibitor molecules focused on double-stranded nucleic acid molecules that mimic natural siRNAs, where each strand has 19-25 nucleotides and includes at least one 3' overhang of 1 to 5 nucleotides (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 8,372,968). Subsequently, longer double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecules were developed that are processed in vivo by endonucleases into active RNAi inhibitor molecules (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 8,883,996). Subsequent work has developed extended double-stranded nucleic acid inhibitor molecules, where at least one end of at least one strand extends beyond the double-stranded targeting region of the molecule, and one of the strands includes a structure of a thermodynamically stable tetracyclic structure (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 8,513,207, U.S. Patent No. 8,927,705, WO2010 / 033225, and WO2016 / 100401). Those structures include single-stranded extension structures (on one or both sides of the molecule) and double-stranded extension structures.
[0005] Single-stranded nucleic acid inhibitor molecules are also known in the art. For example, recent results have demonstrated the activity of ssRNAi inhibitor molecules (see, e.g., Matsui et al., 2016, 24(5):946-55). Also, antisense oligonucleotide molecules have been used for decades to reduce the expression of specific target genes. Pelechano and Steinmetz, Nature Review Genetics, 2013, 14:880-93, have developed many variations on these structural common themes for a range of targets. Other single-stranded nucleic acid inhibitor molecules include, for example, miRNAs, ribozymes, antagomirs, and aptamers, all of which are known in the art.
[0006] In some cases, chemical modifications have been introduced into nucleic acid inhibitor molecules to confer properties that may be desirable under specific conditions, such as those experienced after in vivo administration. These modifications include modifications designed to, for example, stabilize against nucleases, or other enzymes that degrade / affect the structure or activity of the oligonucleotide, increase cellular uptake of the oligonucleotide, or improve the pharmacokinetic properties of the oligonucleotide.
[0007] For example, synthetic oligonucleotides generally terminate with a 5'-hydroxyl or 3'-hydroxyl. It is possible to replace the terminal hydroxyl with a phosphate group, which can be used, for example, to attach a linker, adaptor, or label or to directly ligate the oligonucleotide to another nucleic acid. Additionally, it has been reported that a 5'-terminal phosphate group enhances the interaction between certain nucleic acid inhibitor molecules (see patents or articles: Cell 2012, 150, 883-894; Nucleic Acids Res. 2015, 43, 2993-3011; CN 109526222; US2023 / 0000895; WO2023003805; US11560563; WO2023003995; US20230020192; US20230024926; US11566248; WO2022 / 204429; WO2023039005; CN 113412268; CN113412268; CN109526222; WO2023003805, etc.) and Ago2. However, oligonucleotides with phosphate groups are generally prone to degradation via phosphatases or other enzymes, which may limit their bioavailability in vivo.
[0008] Accordingly, it is desirable to develop modifications to the 5'-terminal nucleotide of oligonucleotides, such as nucleic acid inhibitor molecules, that provide a functional role for the phosphate group, but that render the oligonucleotide more stable to the ambient conditions to which it is exposed when administered to a subject. These phosphate-modified nucleotides will be more resistant to phosphatases and other enzymes, while minimizing any negative impact on the function of the oligonucleotide (e.g., when used in an RNAi inhibitor molecule, minimizing any negative impact on knocking down the target gene). SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0009] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention aims to develop a nucleoside compound that can effectively enhance the activity of an oligonucleotide molecule (including but not limited to siRNA, antisense nucleic acid, saRNA (small activating nucleic acid), miRNA (microRNA), nucleic acid aptamer, etc.) when applied at one terminal position (preferably the 5'-position) of the oligonucleotide molecule, improve the corresponding target gene silencing efficiency, and simultaneously improve the resistance of the corresponding oligonucleotide to enzymatic cleavage by phosphatases, exonucleases, endonucleases, etc.
[0010] The present invention provides an oligonucleotide, which is a single-stranded or double-stranded nucleotide molecule, and each nucleotide in the single-stranded or double-stranded nucleotide molecule is a modified or unmodified nucleotide, wherein the double-stranded nucleotide molecule has 16 - 30 nucleotides; the antisense strand of the double-stranded nucleotide molecule is at least 14 nucleotides reverse complementary to a sequence in the target mRNA; in the direction from the 5'-terminal to the 3'-terminal, the 5'-terminal of the antisense strand of the double-stranded nucleotide molecule is replaced by a nucleotide of 2'-phosphoramidite group, 3'-modification, 5'-(E)-vinyl phosphate.
[0011] The double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecule comprises an antisense strand and a sense strand. The antisense strand or a region thereof is partially, substantially or completely complementary to the corresponding region of the target nucleic acid. In addition, the antisense strand or a region thereof of the double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecule is partially, substantially or completely complementary to the sense strand or a region thereof of the double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecule. In certain embodiments, the antisense strand may also contain non-complementary nucleotides to the target nucleic acid. The non-complementary nucleotides may be on either side of the complementary sequence or may be on both sides of the complementary sequence. In certain embodiments, when the antisense strand or a region thereof is partially or substantially complementary to the sense strand or a region thereof, the non-complementary nucleotides may be located between one or more complementary regions, such as one or more mismatches. The antisense strand of the double-stranded RNAi inhibitor molecule is also referred to as the guide strand.
[0012] One object of the present invention is to provide a nucleoside compound of formula 1-a (nucleoside phosphoramidite compound).

[0101] When the "alkyl", "alkoxy", "cycloalkyl", "alkenyl", "alkynyl", "aryl", "heteroaryl", "heterocyclic group" described above are substituted, they are optionally further substituted by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 substituents selected from F, Cl, Br, I, hydroxy, mercapto, nitro, cyano, amino, C1-6 alkylamino, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 alkoxy, C2-6 alkenyl, C2-6 alkynyl, C3-8 cycloalkyl, C3-8 heterocycloalkyl, C6-10 aryl, C5-10 heteroaryl.
[0102] "Optionally" or "optionally" means that the subsequent described event or condition can but does not necessarily occur, and this description includes the situation where the event or condition occurs and the situation where it does not occur. For example, "heterocyclic group optionally substituted by alkyl" means that the alkyl may or may not be present, and this description includes the situation where the heterocyclic group is substituted by alkyl and the situation where the heterocyclic group is not substituted by alkyl.
[0103] "Base" refers to the heterocyclic base moiety in nucleosides and nucleotides. In natural nucleic acids, the bases are the purine moieties in nucleosides (such as adenine and guanine) and the pyrimidine moieties (such as uracil, thymine, and cytosine). In this article, the term "base" also encompasses modified bases that can be different from the naturally occurring nucleobases but are functional during nucleic acid hybridization. In such cases, "base" refers to naturally occurring nucleobases such as adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymidine, uracil, xanthine, and hypoxanthine, as well as non-naturally occurring variants. Descriptions of such variants can be found, for example, in Hirao et al. (2012) Accounts of Chemical Research, Volume 45, page 2055 and Bergstrom (2009) Current Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry Suppl. 37 1.4.1. In some cases, the base moiety can be modified by changing a purine or pyrimidine to a modified purine or pyrimidine, such as a substituted purine or a substituted pyrimidine, such as bases selected from isocytosine, pseudoisocytosine, 5-methylcytosine, 5-thiazolylcytosine, 5-propynyl-cytosine, 5-propynyl-uracil, 5-bromouracil, 5-thiazolyluracil, 2-thio-uracil, 2'-thio-thymine, inosine, diaminopurine, 6-aminopurine, 2-aminopurine, 2,6-diaminopurine, and 2-chloro-6-aminopurine. The base moiety can be indicated by the letter code of each corresponding base (such as A, T, G, C, or U), where each letter can optionally include functionally equivalent modified bases. For example, in the structures exemplified in this disclosure, the base moiety can be selected from A, T, G, C, and U.

Then, the above-concentrated sample is dissolved in acetonitrile / pyridine (V:V = 1:1), 0.5mol / L TMSBr acetonitrile solution is added to remove the ethyl protecting group in the compound, the system is quenched with triethylamine, and purified by C18 reverse-phase chromatography with the mobile phase being 0.1mol / L TEAA and acetonitrile. After the target oligonucleotide is collected, freeze-dried, and identified as the target product by LCMS, it is quantified by UV (260nm).
[0406] The obtained single-stranded oligonucleotide is annealed according to the complementary pairing at an equimolar ratio, and finally the obtained double-stranded siRNA is dissolved in 1xPBS and adjusted to the required concentration for experiments.

Unless otherwise stated, each siRNA is transfected in triplicate.
[0420] Data analysis: Analyze the real-time data using the ΔΔCt method and normalize these data with the data of the mock (PBS control group). The specific calculation method is: ΔCt = Ct (target gene) - Ct (GAPDH), ΔΔCt = ΔCt (test sample) - ΔCt (Mock), Relative mRNA expression to Mock = 2 -ΔΔCt , % Inhibition v.s. Mock = {1 - Expression fold (test sample) / Expression fold (Mock)} * 100. The final results are shown in Table 2.

After the blood samples were allowed to stand at room temperature for two hours, they were centrifuged at 4°C and 5500 rpm for 10 min to separate and collect the serum for detecting the TTR level in the animal serum.
[0440] The detection of TTR levels in serum was analyzed by TTR enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ELISA was performed using the Abcam Mouse Prealbumin ELISA Kit (ab282297), and all sample tests were performed according to the instructions of the test kit. The absorbance at 450 nm was read on a Tecan SPARK microplate reader, and the data of the standard (from the above ELISA kit) was fitted into a parameter standard curve to determine the serum TTR protein level (in μg / mL). The protein content of each animal was compared with its corresponding pre-dose serum protein content to determine the percentage of TTR remaining relative to pre-dose. The test results are shown in Figure 2 .
