Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedical technology, specifically the application of arachidonic acid as an interleukin-5 receptor antagonist. Background Technology
[0002] Interleukin-5 (IL-5) is a multifunctional cytokine produced by immune system cells, primarily activated T cells, mast cells, and Th2 cells. When stimulated, these cells release IL-5 into the bloodstream, where it exerts its biological effects. IL-5 plays a crucial role in immune regulation and inflammatory responses: ① It promotes the growth, differentiation, recruitment, activation, and survival of eosinophils and basophils, thereby enhancing the body's immune response to parasitic infections and allergic diseases; ② It stimulates B cell proliferation and increases their antibody secretion capacity, thereby promoting antibody production and enhancing humoral immune responses; ③ It regulates hematopoietic function by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, maintaining the normal production and renewal of blood cells; ④ It promotes inflammatory responses, as IL-5 can stimulate inflammatory cells (such as eosinophils) to aggregate at the site of inflammation and release inflammatory mediators (such as histamine and leukotrienes), thus exacerbating the inflammatory response.
[0003] IL-5 exerts its biological effects by binding to the IL-5 receptor (IL-5R) on the surface of target cells. IL-5R consists of an α-chain and a β-chain. The α-chain triggers downstream signaling pathways upon binding to IL-5, while the β-chain participates in signal transduction processes, including Jak-Stat and MAPK, and can regulate biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Due to its important role in immune responses and inflammatory reactions, IL-5 has broad application prospects in the medical field. For example, in the treatment of allergic diseases, drugs targeting IL-5 or IL-5R can inhibit eosinophil activity, thereby reducing allergic reactions and inflammation.
[0004] Given the crucial role of IL-5R in disease, biologics primarily composed of IL-5R inhibitors are an important component of IL-5R antagonists. Antibody drugs alleviate disease symptoms by blocking the interaction between IL-5 and IL-5R, inhibiting the accumulation of immune cells and inflammatory factors. Antibody therapy can replace hormone therapy; when combined with glucocorticoids, it can reduce the dosage of hormones and decrease the incidence of adverse drug reactions. Inflammatory cytokines, cell surface molecules, and their mediated signaling pathways participate in the pathological process of autoimmune diseases. Targeted biologics targeting cytokines, receptors, and signaling molecules have seen rapid development in recent years.
[0005] However, biologic antibody drugs carry certain side effects or treatment risks. Acute reactions following monoclonal antibody injection can be caused by various mechanisms, including acute anaphylaxis (IgE-mediated) and anaphylactic-like reactions, serum sickness, tumor lysis syndrome, and cytokine release syndrome. Clinical manifestations include local skin reactions at the injection site, fever, and flu-like syndrome. Humanization of antibody drugs does not completely eliminate immunogenicity; even the CDR region of humanized antibodies retains strong immunogenicity, generating anti-idiotype antibodies and leading to drug inactivation. Monoclonal antibodies and other biomolecules possess unique three-dimensional structures. The complex balance of interactions between amino acid functional groups and the external environment, both intramolecularly and intermolecularly, determines the folded structure. Because the folded structure is in a dynamic equilibrium, any factor altering this balance can cause structural changes, leading to instability in the macromolecule. Since the tertiary structure of biologics is susceptible to environmental physical stress, structural changes in monoclonal antibodies can occur at any stage of the production process, from initial protein expression to processing and storage. Most monoclonal antibodies are large and have limited ability to penetrate and accumulate tissues, likely confined to the interstitial space after injection. Biotherapies can reach the bloodstream via two pathways: through capillaries or lymphatic vessels. However, capillary absorption has been reported to rely on passive transport and is limited to compounds with molecular weights below 16 kDa. Therefore, most biotherapeutic drugs cannot be transported via the capillary route and instead rely on the lymphatic system. Furthermore, enzymatic degradation mechanisms within the body further reduce the pharmacokinetic properties of most types of protein drugs; proteins and monoclonal antibodies are prone to enzymatic degradation. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this invention uses IL-5R as a target to conduct high-throughput screening of drug molecules in the FDA drug library that can bind to IL-5R, and verifies their antagonistic efficiency at the in vitro molecular level, thus screening out a molecule that can antagonize IL-5R, providing a new approach for studying the function of IL-5R.
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to protect the application of arachidonic acid as an interleukin-5 receptor antagonist.
[0008] Arachidonic acid, also known as cis-5,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, is an ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid. At room temperature, it is a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid, mainly found in animal organs, red meat, eggs, and some seafood.
[0009] Arachidonic acid (ARA) is an important structural ester and metabolic substrate in the human body. It also acts as a second messenger within cells, directly participating in intracellular signal transduction and influencing other signal transduction pathways to regulate cellular biological activities. Furthermore, ARA can lower cholesterol, relax vascular smooth muscle and coronary arteries, increase sinoatrial node frequency and myocardial contractility, playing a vital role in the cardiovascular system. Studies have found that ARA can enhance vaccine immunity, accumulating in lymph nodes and metabolizing into the active substance prostaglandin I2. Prostaglandin I2 activates the cAMP-PKA signaling pathway within B cells, enhancing the interaction between B cells and T cells, promoting germinal center formation, activating key enzymes, driving antibody class switching and affinity maturation, and ultimately producing more potent neutralizing antibodies.
[0010] In one specific embodiment, the interleukin-5 receptor antagonist was screened using the following method: (a) Establish an FDA-approved drug library: Customize a library containing at least 3,067 compound drugs, each dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 1 mg / ml and stored. (b) Preparation of interleukin-5 receptor target: Custom-designed interleukin-5 receptor protein target with a purity of at least 95% and serially diluted to at least five concentration levels, including but not limited to 500 nM, 250 nM, 125 nM, 62.5 nM and 31.25 nM; (c) Molecular screening: The FDA drug library was assembled into a microfluidic chip and installed in a high-throughput screening analyzer. After verifying the chip quality using positive control samples, interleukin-5 receptor targets were injected sequentially according to the concentration gradient. The interaction with interleukin-5 receptor targets was detected, and the collected signal data was analyzed using data analysis software. The results were sorted according to the molecular affinity. (d) Candidate drug screening: In the results obtained in step (c), compound drugs with significant affinity for the interleukin-5 receptor target were identified, among which arachidonic acid was screened as a candidate drug with potential antagonistic effects. (e) Drug molecular level validation: Using an interleukin-5 receptor assay kit, with known interleukin-5 receptor monoclonal antibody drugs as positive controls, the antagonistic effect of arachidonic acid on interleukin-5 receptor was evaluated, and the antagonistic activity of arachidonic acid was verified by calculating the antagonism rate.
[0011] In one specific embodiment, the FDA-approved drug library may contain a wider variety of compound drugs to improve the diversity and accuracy of screening.
[0012] In one specific embodiment, the purity of the interleukin-5 receptor target was determined by methods such as SDS-PAGE.
[0013] In one specific embodiment, the high-throughput screening analyzer is a PlexArrayHTSPRi microarray analyzer or other instruments suitable for molecular screening.
[0014] In one specific embodiment, the antagonism rate in the drug molecule-level validation step is calculated as follows: Antagonism rate = 100% - (detected concentration / initial concentration) × 100%.
[0015] In one specific embodiment, the interleukin-5 receptor is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and its specific amino acid sequence is as follows: DLLPDEKISLLPPVNFTIKVTGLAQVLLQWKPNPDQEQRNVNLEYQVKINAPKEDDYETTRITESKCVTILHKGFSASVRTILQNDHSLLASSWASAELHAPPGSPGTSIVNLTCTTNTTEDNYSRLRSYQVSLHCTWLVGTDAPEDTQYFLYYRYGSW TEECQEYSKDTLGRNIACWFPRTFILSKGRDWLAVLVNGSSKHSAIRPFDQLFALHAIDQINPPLNVTAEIEGTRLSIQWEKPVSAFPIHCFDYEVKIHNTRNGYLQIEKLMTNAFISIIDDLSKYDVQVRAAVSSMCREAGLWSEWSQPIYVGNDE.
[0016] Another object of the present invention is to protect a pharmaceutical composition of an interleukin-5 receptor antagonist comprising arachidonic acid and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.
[0017] In one specific embodiment, the carrier comprises liposomes or cyclodextrin complexes, and the excipients comprise antioxidants and metal ion chelates.
[0018] In one specific embodiment, the antioxidant is one or more of resveratrol, α-tocopherol, pterostilbene, and probucol, and the metal ion chelate is selected from one or more of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate or citric acid.
[0019] In one specific embodiment, the antioxidant is resveratrol and α-tocopherol.
[0020] In one specific embodiment, the carrier is a liposome-cyclodextrin complex.
[0021] Another object of the present invention is to protect a drug-loaded liposome of an interleukin-5 receptor antagonist, wherein the drug-loaded liposome, by molar ratio, comprises 10-15 parts arachidonic acid, 0.1-0.5 parts resveratrol, 0.01-0.05 parts α-tocopherol, 300-500 parts liposome source, and 80-100 parts anionic cyclodextrin. The liposome source comprises 100-200 parts hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine, 50-70 parts (2,3-dioleopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride, 80-120 parts cholesterol, 15-30 parts hydrogenated sphingomyelin, 10-15 parts distearate phosphatidylethanolamine methoxy polyethylene glycol, and 5-10 parts dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol. The anionic cyclodextrin comprises sodium sulfobutylbetacyclodextrin.
[0022] The drug-loaded liposomes are prepared by using a thin-film-hydration extrusion-cyclodextrin coating method.
[0023] The film-hydration extrusion-cyclodextrin coating method involves mixing a liposome source, a drug active component, and a first organic solvent to obtain a first mixed solution. The first organic solvent in the first mixed solution is then evaporated to remove it, forming a film. The film is then mixed with an hydration solution to obtain a second mixed solution. After hydration, the solution is extruded and purified. Finally, the drug-loaded liposomes are coated with anionic cyclodextrin.
[0024] The first organic solvent can be a solvent capable of dissolving various raw materials, preferably at least one of anhydrous ethanol, chloroform and methanol, and most preferably anhydrous ethanol.
[0025] Arachidonic acid has certain application prospects as an interleukin-5 receptor antagonist. However, the molecular structure of arachidonic acid contains four cis double bonds, which are easily oxidized by oxygen or metal ions at room temperature, leading to a decrease in efficacy. Furthermore, arachidonic acid has extremely poor water solubility, cannot be directly dissolved by intravenous injection, has low oral bioavailability, and also has the problem of a short half-life. Therefore, this invention makes it into liposomes, giving it the advantages of oxygen barrier and water solubility, and can prolong its circulation time.
[0026] Beneficial effects
[0027] Arachidonic acid is an important ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid that can be used as an antagonist of IL-5R, potentially replacing antibody drugs in antagonizing IL-5R. It boasts advantages such as low toxicity, minimal side effects, stable drug molecular structure, and good pharmacokinetic properties. Forming it into liposomes not only endows it with oxygen-barrier and water-soluble advantages but also prolongs its circulation time. Furthermore, this invention provides a drug-loaded liposome. By mixing the active drug molecule with a liposome source to form a film, followed by hydration and extrusion, a positively charged liposome primary product is obtained. Then, anionic cyclodextrin is used to coat its surface through charge neutralization, making the liposome shell more stable. This solves the problems of poor stability of conventional liposomes and low encapsulation efficiency of simple cyclodextrin, resulting in a drug-loaded liposome with oxygen barrier properties, good water solubility, and long-lasting stability.

[0057] Example 3
[0058] A drug-loaded liposome, by molar amounts, comprises 10-15 parts arachidonic acid, 0.1-0.5 parts resveratrol, 0.01-0.05 parts α-tocopherol, 300-500 parts liposome source, and 60-100 parts anionic cyclodextrin. The liposome source comprises 100-200 parts hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine, 50-70 parts (2,3-dioleopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride, 80-120 parts cholesterol, 15-30 parts hydrogenated sphingomyelin, 10-15 parts distearate phosphatidylethanolamine methoxy polyethylene glycol, and 5-10 parts dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol. The anionic cyclodextrin is sodium sulfobutylbetacyclodextrin. The preparation method of the drug-loaded liposome is as follows: (1) 0.2 mmol of hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine, 0.06 mmol of (2,3-dioleoxypropyl)trimethylammonium chloride, 0.1 mmol of cholesterol, 0.02 mmol of hydrogenated sphingomyelin, 0.012 mmol of distearyl phosphatidylethanolamine methoxy polyethylene glycol, and 0.008 mmol of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylglycerol were mixed with 15 ml of chloroform / methanol (9:1 v / v). After dissolution, 0.012 mmol of arachidonic acid, 0.0003 mmol of resveratrol, and 0.00005 mmol of α-tocopherol were added to obtain the first mixed solution. The first organic solvent in the first mixed solution was removed by rotary evaporation at 55 °C and vacuum for 30 min to form a thin film.
[0059] (2) Prepare an hydration solution containing 10 mmol of 4-hydroxyethylpiperazine ethanesulfonic acid, 150 mmol of NaCl, pH 7.4, 0.005 mmol of EDTA-Na2 and 1 wt% of sucrose, and preheat it to 55°C. Pour the solution into a round-bottom bottle, mix the membrane with 10 ml of the hydration solution, and hydrate it at 55°C and 50 rpm for 15 min to obtain a milky white suspension. Preheat the extruder to 55°C and pass the suspension through polycarbonate membranes with pore sizes of 0.4 µm, 0.2 µm and 0.1 µm three times each, at a pressure of 200–400 psi, to obtain crude liposomes.
[0060] (3) The crude liposome product was purified by using a 100kDa ultrafiltration centrifuge tube. Each time, 10 mL of fresh 4-hydroxyethylpiperazine ethanesulfonic acid-sodium chloride buffer was added to wash and filter three times to obtain liposomes with positive surface charge.
[0061] (4) Dissolve 0.08 mmol of sodium sulfobutyl betacyclodextrin in 0.5 ml of water and slowly drip it into liposomes preheated at 55 °C with a positively charged surface. While adding the liposomes, gently shake them and incubate for 30 min. Remove free cyclodextrin by ultrafiltration three times to obtain drug-loaded liposomes. The particle size of the drug-loaded liposomes was 127 nm, with an encapsulation efficiency of 75%. After storage at 4 °C for 16 days, the particle size was retested and remained stable at 127 nm, indicating good stability.
[0062] Example 4
[0063] Compared with Example 3, the difference is that the preparation method of drug-loaded liposomes does not include step (4), that is, it is only liposomes. The particle size of the drug-loaded liposomes obtained is 115nm and the encapsulation efficiency is 62.3%. However, after 16 days, the encapsulation efficiency dropped to 55% and the stability was slightly lower.
