Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular to an oxadiazole histone deacetylase / GSK-3β dual inhibitor and its application. Background Art
[0002] Orderly gene transcriptional regulation is essential for maintaining normal cellular function. Disruption of gene transcriptional regulation can lead to cancer. Acetylation and deacetylation of core histones are closely linked to gene regulation. Histone acetylation and deacetylation are mediated by a pair of antagonistic proteases: histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). HDACs are a group of enzymes that regulate a range of biological effects at the chromatin level by inducing histone deacetylation, including chromatin reorganization, transcriptional activation or repression, cell cycle progression, cell differentiation, and apoptosis. HDACs are particularly involved in regulating gene transcriptional expression following cell activation. Histone deacetylase inhibitors, by inhibiting HDAC activity, induce apoptosis and differentiation, and inhibit cell proliferation, and are considered promising anticancer drug targets. Currently, research on HDAC inhibitors spans a wide range of tumor types, including hematologic malignancies, melanoma, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, and colon cancer. GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase 3β, GSK3β) is a ubiquitously expressed serine / threonine kinase involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, metabolism, and apoptosis. Recent studies have revealed that GSK3β plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis, progression, and treatment resistance, with its specific functions highly dependent on tumor type, microenvironment, and signaling pathway context.
[0003] HDAC inhibitors and GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase 3β) inhibitors each have unique mechanisms of action in tumor treatment. Studies have shown that their combined use may produce a synergistic anti-tumor effect and exhibit significant advantages in overcoming drug resistance and enhancing apoptosis induction. Based on this, the present invention has developed a novel class of HDAC / GSK3β dual inhibitors, hoping to produce new, selectable HDAC / GSK3β dual inhibitors for the prevention and / or treatment of diseases associated with uncontrolled histone deacetylase or GSK3β activity, particularly tumors. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an oxadiazole histone deacetylase GSK-3β dual inhibitor and its application, which is used to comprehensively reverse the malignant phenotype of tumors. The simultaneous action of dual targets can block complementary pathways, reduce the risk of single drug resistance, and enhance the anti-tumor effect.

Under argon protection, NaH (0.04 g, 1.73 mmol) and DMF (7.5 mL) were added and reacted at room temperature for 6-8 h. The reaction was complete when detected by TLC. Post-treatment was performed as in step a. The title compound was isolated and purified by column chromatography (petroleum ether:ethyl acetate = 1:1) to obtain a white solid in a yield of 63%.

[0080] Test example
[0081] (1) Determination of the inhibitory activity of target compounds on HDAC6
[0082] The inhibitory activity of the compounds obtained in Examples 1-9 on HDAC was determined by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and compared with the positive control drug to screen out compounds with better activity. HDAC was obtained by purification or direct purchase of a kit.
[0083] Specific method: Add enzyme to the reaction wells and reaction buffer to the control wells. Add samples dissolved in DMSO to the reaction wells and incubate using a non-contact nanoliter acoustic pipetting system. Add the corresponding fluorescent substrate to each reaction well, rotate and shake, seal and incubate at 30°C for 1-2 hours. Add a color developer containing TMP26 to terminate the reaction and generate fluorescence. Use the EnVision multi-label microplate reader (Perkin Elmer) to detect fluorescence intensity (excitation light: 490nM, emission light: 520nM). Read the endpoint value after the color development reaches stability. Use GraphPad Prism 4 software to calculate the percentage (relative to the DMSO control group) and half-maximal inhibition rate.
[0084] (2) Determination of the inhibitory activity of the target compound on GSK-3β enzyme
[0085] Experimental steps: Purified GSK-3β enzyme (0.5 μg) was mixed with reaction buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.3, 10 mM magnesium acetate (MgAc2), 0.01% β-mercaptoethanol). 32 P-γ-ATP (100 μM, 0.5 μCi / reaction) and peptide substrate pIRS-1 (100 μM, sequence: RREGGMSRPAS(p)VDG). The test compound was added to the reaction system at different concentrations (1, 10, 100 μM). Reaction conditions: Incubate at 30°C for 15 min. After the reaction is terminated, the mixture is spotted on a Whatman P81 phosphocellulose filter. The filter membrane is washed with 10 mM phosphoric acid solution to remove free 32P-ATP. The 32P-labeled substrate bound to the filter membrane is detected by radioactivity counting. Activity calculation: Taking the GSK-3β activity of the group without inhibitor as 100%, the percentage of inhibition of the enzyme activity by each concentration of compound is calculated.

[0091] (3) Determination of the in vitro antitumor activity of the target compound
[0092] In this experiment, the CTG method was used to determine the inhibitory effect of the compounds on the gastric cancer cell line AGS.
[0093] Experimental method: Collect cells in the exponential growth phase for viable cell counting. Adjust the cell suspension concentration with the corresponding culture medium of each cell. Add 90 μL of cell suspension to each well of a 96-well cell culture plate. Dissolve each test compound in DMSO to a 10mM or 5mM stock solution. Then dilute to a 10-fold solution with culture medium, and repeat each well. Add 10 μL of the corresponding 10-fold solution to each well of each cell line, with a final drug concentration of 10 μM or 25 μM, and a final DMSO concentration of 0.1%-0.5% (see compound preparation method and sample addition design: experimental well plate sample addition design). Culture in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 hours. After 72 hours of drug treatment, add 50 μL (1 / 2 culture volume) of CTG solution that has been melted and equilibrated to room temperature to each well, mix with a microplate shaker for 2 minutes, and place at room temperature for 10 minutes. Measure the fluorescence signal value using an Envision2104 plate reader. The cell inhibition rate is calculated using the formula: (1-V sample / V vehicle control × 100%). sample is the mean value of the drug-treated group, V vehicle control The results are shown in Table 2.
