Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine. Specifically, the present invention relates to an siRNA, shRNA and their conjugates capable of inhibiting the expression of xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), a pharmaceutical composition containing them, and their preparation methods and applications. Background Art

[0002] Hyperuricemia is the pathogenesis basis of gout. The higher the blood uric acid level, the greater the possibility of developing gout in the next 5 years. The cause of hyperuricemia in patients with primary gout is related to excessive uric acid production. Hyperuricemia refers to the excessive production and / or insufficient excretion of uric acid in the body under normal diet conditions.

[0003] High uric acid and hyperuricemia are related to increased uric acid synthesis. Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) is one of the key enzymes in the uric acid synthesis pathway. By inhibiting the expression of XDH, the production of uric acid can be reduced, thereby alleviating the process of hyperuricemia and related diseases. By inhibiting the expression of the XDH gene, it is possible to treat and prevent diseases caused by abnormal uric acid metabolism at the cellular level, especially hyperuricemia, gout, gouty nephropathy, and uric acid stones.

[0004] RNA interference (RNAi) refers to a phenomenon in which highly conserved in the process of evolution, homologous mRNA is efficiently and specifically degraded induced by double-stranded small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA). Therefore, it is of great significance to research and develop siRNA targeting XDH. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides an siRNA, shRNA and their conjugates capable of specifically inhibiting the expression of xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), their salts, and their pharmaceutical compositions. They can specifically target hepatocytes, thereby realizing tissue-specific delivery of nucleic acid inhibitors and realizing the treatment of human xanthine dehydrogenase-related diseases.

[0475] Hereinafter, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating and explaining the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0476] In the invention, the xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) mRNA refers to the mRNA having the sequence shown in Genbank accession number NM_000379.4. Further, unless otherwise specified, the term "target gene" used in the present invention refers to the gene that transcribes the above XDH mRNA, and the term "target mRNA" refers to the above XDH mRNA. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the XDH gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO:1.

[0477] DEFINITIONS

[0478] As used in the present invention, the term "link" or "linked", when referring to the connection between two molecules, means that the two molecules are connected by a covalent bond or the two molecules are associated via a non-covalent bond (e.g., hydrogen bond or ionic bond).

[0479] As used in the present invention, the term "inhibit" or "inhibiting", when referring to the expression of a given gene, means that the gene expression is reduced when a cell, cell population or tissue is treated with the siRNA, shRNA, conjugate and pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, compared to a cell, cell population or tissue that has not been so treated.

[0480] The terms "inhibit", "reduce", "silence", "down-regulate" and other similar terms as used in the present invention are used interchangeably and include any level of inhibition. Preferably, inhibition includes statistically significant inhibition or clinically significant inhibition.

[0481] As used in the present invention, the phrase "inhibit the expression of XDH" or "inhibit the expression of the XDH gene" includes inhibiting the expression of any XDH gene (e.g., the XDH gene expressed by an expression construct in a cell) and variants or mutants of the XDH gene encoding the XDH protein.

[0482] Each nucleotide in the sense strand and the antisense strand is independently a modified or unmodified nucleotide.

[0483] In the context of the present invention, the expressions "complementary" or "reverse complementary" are used interchangeably and have the meanings well known to those skilled in the art, that is, in a double-stranded nucleic acid molecule, the bases of one strand pair with the bases of the other strand in a complementary manner. In DNA, the purine base adenine (A) always pairs with the pyrimidine base thymine (T) (or uracil (U) in RNA); the purine base guanine (G) always pairs with the pyrimidine base cytosine (C). Each base pair consists of a purine and a pyrimidine. When adenine on one strand always pairs with thymine (or uracil) on the other strand, and guanine always pairs with cytosine, the two strands are considered to be complementary to each other, and the sequence of one strand can be deduced from the sequence of its complementary strand. Correspondingly, "mismatch" in the art means that in a double-stranded nucleic acid, the bases at corresponding positions do not pair in a complementary form.

[0484] As used hereinabove and hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, "substantially reverse complementary" means that there are no more than 3 base mismatches between two nucleotide sequences involved; "essentially reverse complementary" means that there is no more than 1 base mismatch between two nucleotide sequences; "fully reverse complementary" means that there is no base mismatch between two nucleotide sequences. As used hereinabove and hereinafter, when a nucleotide sequence has a "nucleotide difference" from another nucleotide sequence, it means that compared with the latter, the base type of the nucleotide at the same position has changed. For example, when a nucleobase in the latter is A, if the corresponding nucleobase at the same position in the former is U, C, G or T, it is determined that there is a nucleotide difference between the two nucleotide sequences at this position. In some embodiments, when a nucleotide at the original position is replaced by a non-nucleotide base or its equivalent, a nucleotide difference is also considered to have occurred at this position.

[0485] As used hereinabove and hereinafter, especially when describing the preparation methods of the siRNAs and pharmaceutical compositions containing siRNAs of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the "nucleoside monomer" refers to the modified or unmodified RNA phosphoramidite monomers (sometimes RNA phosphoramidites are also referred to as Nucleoside phosphoramidites) used in the phosphoramidite solid-phase synthesis according to the types and sequences of nucleotides in the siRNA to be prepared. The phosphoramidite solid-phase synthesis is a method used in RNA synthesis well-known to those skilled in the art. The nucleoside monomers used in the present invention can all be commercially purchased.

[0486] As used herein, "optional" or "optionally" means that the event or condition described thereafter may or may not occur, and this description includes the cases where the event or condition occurs and the cases where it does not occur. For example, "optionally substituted" "alkyl" includes "alkyl" and "substituted alkyl" as defined hereinafter. Those skilled in the art will understand that for any group containing one or more substituents, these groups are not intended to introduce any substitutions or substitution patterns that are spatially unrealistic, synthetically infeasible, and / or inherently unstable.

[0487] The term "subject", as used herein, refers to any animal, such as a mammal or a marsupial. The subjects of the present invention include, but are not limited to, humans, non-human primates (e.g., monkeys and orangutans), mice, rabbits, dogs, cats, pigs, horses, cows, rats, or any kind of poultry.

[0488] As used herein, "treatment" refers to a method of obtaining a beneficial or desired result, including but not limited to a therapeutic benefit. "Therapeutic benefit" means eradicating or ameliorating the underlying disorder being treated. Additionally, a therapeutic benefit is obtained by observing an improvement in a subject through eradicating or ameliorating one or more physiological symptoms associated with the underlying disorder, even though the subject may still be afflicted with the underlying disorder. "Improvement" refers to a reduction in at least one indicator, marker, sign, and / or symptom of the relevant disease, disorder, or condition. In certain embodiments, improvement includes delaying or slowing the progression of one or more indicators of a condition, disorder, and / or disease. The severity of an indicator can be determined by subjective or objective measures known to those skilled in the art.

[0489] The term "xanthine dehydrogenase-related disease and / or disorder" or "XDH-related disease" as used in the present invention refers to a disease or disorder caused by or associated with high expression of the XDH gene. The term "XDH-related disease" includes diseases or disorders that benefit from reduced XDH gene expression or replication. Non-limiting examples of XDH-related diseases include diseases caused by abnormal uric acid metabolism, particularly hyperuricemia, gout, gouty nephropathy, uric acid stones, etc.

[0490] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with examples, but these examples do not limit the scope of the present invention. For the experimental methods without specific conditions noted in the examples of the present invention, they are generally carried out under conventional conditions or according to the conditions recommended by the raw material or commodity manufacturer. For reagents without specific sources noted, the reagents can be obtained from any supplier of molecular biology reagents in the quality / purity for molecular biology applications.

[0491] Example 1 Sequence Design of Human XDH siRNA

[0492] Using the human (Homo sapiens) XDH gene (NM_000379.4, SEQ ID NO:1) as the target gene, 19 / 19nt siRNAs were designed to meet the general rules of active siRNAs, and two thymidine deoxyribonucleic acids were added to the 3' end of the antisense strand. The sequences of the unmodified sense strand and antisense strand are shown in Table 1.

[0497] Example 2 Inhibition of XDH by siRNA in Human Tongue Squamous Carcinoma Cells (CAL-27) - Inhibitory Activity at Two Concentration Points

[0498] A dose experiment was conducted in human tongue squamous carcinoma cells (CAL-27) at two concentrations, namely, final duplex concentrations of 10 nM and 0.1 nM. See Tables 3 and 4 for experimental consumables.

[0499] Twenty-four hours before transfection, CAL-27 cells were plated at approximately 20,000 cells / well on a 96-well plate, with 100 μL of medium per well. At the time of transfection, siRNA was transfected using Lipofectamine RNAi MAX (ThermoFisher, 13778150) according to the product instruction manual. The gradient final concentrations of siRNA transfection were 10 nM and 0.1 nM. After 24 hours of treatment, total cellular RNA was extracted using a high-throughput cell RNA extraction kit (QIAGEN, RNeasy 96Kit), and RNA reverse transcription experiments (Takara PrimeScript TM II 1st Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (6210A) and quantitative real-time PCR (TaqMan TM Fast Advanced Master Mix (4444557) were performed for detection. See Table 3 for Taqman probe primer information. The mRNA level of human XDH was measured, and the mRNA level of human XDH was corrected according to the GAPDH housekeeping gene level.

[0500] After the Taqman probe Q-PCR detection experiment, the corresponding Ct value was obtained according to the threshold automatically set by the system. The expression of a certain gene can be relatively quantified by comparing Ct values: the comparative Ct refers to calculating the gene expression difference by the difference between the Ct value of the target gene and the Ct value of the housekeeping gene, which is also called 2 -ΔΔCt , ΔΔCt = [(Ct of the target gene in the experimental group - Ct of the housekeeping gene in the experimental group) - (Ct of the target gene in the control group - Ct of the housekeeping gene in the control group)]. Inhibition rate (%) = (1 - remaining amount of target gene expression) * 100%.

[0509] Example 3. Inhibition of XDH by siRNA in human tongue squamous carcinoma cells (CAL-27) - Multi-concentration point inhibitory activity

[0510] A dose-response experiment was conducted using 7 concentration gradients of siRNA in human tongue squamous carcinoma cells (CAL-27).

[0511] Twenty-four hours before transfection, MCF7 cells were seeded at approximately 20,000 cells / well in a 96-well plate, with 100 μL of medium per well. At the time of transfection, siRNA was transfected using Lipofectamine RNAi MAX (ThermoFisher, 13778150) according to the product instruction manual. The final gradient concentrations of siRNA transfection were 10, 2.5, 0.625, 0.1563, 0.0391, 0.0098, and 0.0024 nM. After 24 hours of treatment, total cellular RNA was extracted using a high-throughput cell RNA extraction kit, followed by RNA reverse transcription and quantitative real-time PCR assays to determine the mRNA level of human XDH. The mRNA level of human XDH was corrected according to the internal reference gene level of GAPDH.

[0512] The results were expressed as the remaining percentage of human XDH mRNA expression relative to cells treated with the control (untreated with siRNA). The IC of the inhibition rate 50 The results are shown in Table 7, Table 8, and Figure 3 and Figure 4 . The experimental operations refer to Example 2.
