Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to ligands of the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor capable of binding to the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor, conjugates thereto with the target molecule (e.g., oligonucleotide conjugates, such as ligand-siRNA conjugates), methods for their preparation, and applications. This disclosure also relates to compositions containing such ligand conjugates of the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor, methods for their preparation, and uses. Background Technology
[0002] The integrin αvβ6 protein receptor (also known as integrin receptor αvβ6) is a molecular target and epithelial-specific cell surface receptor expressed only in epithelial cells. It is primarily regulated by the integrin β6 (ITGB6) gene, increasing integrin ligand expression, macrophage infiltration, pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, signal transduction, and activation of the STAT1 (activator of transcription 1) signaling pathway. Its expression is upregulated in damaged tissues, including fibrotic lung. Currently, several small molecule integrin inhibitors in clinical and preclinical stages are used to treat lung-related diseases, including but not limited to primary sclerosing cholangitis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Furthermore, molecules targeted by integrin αvβ6 are widely used in integrin-related cancer imaging and diagnosis.
[0003] Over the past two decades, research on RNA interference (RNAi) has translated this biological breakthrough into a powerful new drug platform for regulating mRNA expression. Of the six currently approved siRNA drugs, except for the first siRNA drug, Patisiran, which uses LNP delivery, the subsequent five approved siRNA drugs all use GalNac as a ligand for effective liver-targeted delivery. Furthermore, oligonucleotide modification technologies have been continuously upgraded, improving the stability of siRNA drugs to nucleases, RNA binding affinity, and pharmacokinetic properties. However, the delivery of siRNA drugs to extrahepatic cells, tissues, and organs (such as the lungs) still faces significant challenges. Currently, there are many types of lung diseases urgently requiring effective drugs, such as severe asthma and other mucosal obstructive lung diseases (such as cystic fibrosis). Currently, siRNA drugs can target disease-related sites (e.g., MUC5AC, MUC5B, and RAGE), knocking down the mRNA of relevant target genes to achieve therapeutic effects; however, drug delivery systems are currently lacking.
[0004] The ligands (especially ligand-siRNA conjugates) of the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor disclosed herein will provide a feasible approach for the construction of drug delivery systems for the lungs and will also provide an effective solution for the treatment of related lung diseases.

In some embodiments, the transported molecule includes an oligonucleotide-based compound as a pharmaceutically active ingredient. In some embodiments, the transported molecule includes an RNAi agent as a pharmaceutically active ingredient.
[0231] The double-stranded oligonucleotide comprises a sense strand and an antisense strand, wherein the antisense strand is complementary to the target gene; and the sense strand is complementary to the antisense strand.
[0232] In some implementations, the antisense strand comprises a sequence whose inverse complementary sequence to at least 15 consecutive nucleotides in the target sequence differs by no more than 3 nucleotides. Specifically, a start nucleotide is selected in the target sequence along the 5' end to the 3' end, and at least 15 nucleotides extending in the 3' direction, including the start nucleotide, serve as the binding region of the siRNA. The antisense strand comprises the inverse complementary sequence of the nucleotide sequence corresponding to the binding region. It should be noted that the start nucleotide can be a nucleotide at any position in the target sequence, as long as extending in the 3' direction from the start nucleotide yields at least 15 consecutive nucleotides (including the nucleotide at the start position).
[0233] In this disclosure, the nucleotide sequence of the antisense strand can be completely complementary or substantially complementary to the target sequence. When the nucleotide sequence of the antisense strand is substantially complementary to the target sequence, the nucleotide sequence of the antisense strand contains no more than three mismatched bases with the target sequence. For example, the number of mismatched bases is one, two, or three. When the nucleotide sequence of the antisense strand is completely complementary to the target sequence, the nucleotide sequence of the antisense strand does not contain any mismatched bases with the target sequence.
[0234] Furthermore, the antisense strand consists of at least 15 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the antisense strand consists of 15-28 nucleotides.

Preferably, the antisense strand consists of 18-25 nucleotides, more preferably 18-23 nucleotides, and most preferably 19, 21, or 23 nucleotides.
[0235] In some specific embodiments, the nucleotide that differs from the target sequence is preferably located at the end of the antisense strand. For example, in some specific embodiments, the differing nucleotide is located at the 3' end of the antisense strand. In other specific embodiments, the differing nucleotide is located at the 5' end of the antisense strand.

The sense strand includes regions complementary to the antisense strand, and the nucleotide sequence of the sense strand is identical or substantially identical to the sequence of the antisense strand binding region on the target sequence. Therefore, the nucleotide sequence of the sense strand is at least 15 consecutive nucleotides in the target sequence that bind the antisense strand; or, the nucleotide sequence of the sense strand differs from at least 15 consecutive nucleotides in the target sequence that bind the antisense strand by 1, 2, or 3 bases.

For example, the length of the positive sense strand is 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, or 28 nucleotides. Preferably, the positive sense strand consists of 18-25 nucleotides, more preferably 18-23 nucleotides, and most preferably 19, 21, or 23 nucleotides.
[0238] In some specific embodiments, the nucleotide that differs from the target sequence is preferably located at the end of the sense strand. For example, in some specific embodiments, the differing nucleotide is located at the 3' end of the sense strand. In other specific embodiments, the differing nucleotide is located at the 5' end of the sense strand.
[0239] In this disclosure, the length of the justice chain and the length of the antisense chain may be the same or different.
[0240] In some implementations, the lengths of the justice chain and the antisense chain are the same. Specifically, the length ratio of the justice chain to the antisense chain is 15 / 15, 16 / 16, 17 / 17, 18 / 18, 19 / 19, 20 / 20, 21 / 21, 22 / 22, 23 / 23, 24 / 24, 25 / 25, 26 / 26, 27 / 27, or 28 / 28. Preferably, the length ratio of the justice chain to the antisense chain is 18 / 18, 19 / 19, 20 / 20, 21 / 21, 22 / 22, 23 / 23, 24 / 24, or 25 / 25; more preferably, it is 19 / 19, 20 / 20, 21 / 21, 22 / 22, or 23 / 23; and most preferably, it is 19 / 19, 21 / 21, or 23 / 23.
[0241] In some implementations, the lengths of the justice chain and the antisense chain are different. For example, the justice chain / antisense chain length ratio is 18 / 19, 18 / 20, 18 / 21, 18 / 22, 18 / 23, 18 / 24, 18 / 25, 18 / 26, 19 / 18, 19 / 20, 19 / 21, 19 / 22, 19 / 23, 19 / 24, 19 / 25, 19 / 26, 20 / 19, 20 / 21, 20 / 22, 20 / 23, 20 / 24, 20 / 25. Examples of possible lengths include 20 / 26, 21 / 18, 21 / 19, 21 / 20, 21 / 22, 21 / 23, 21 / 24, 21 / 25, 21 / 26, 22 / 18, 22 / 19, 22 / 20, 22 / 21, 22 / 23, 22 / 24, 22 / 25, 22 / 26, 23 / 19, 23 / 20, 23 / 21, 23 / 22, 23 / 24, 23 / 25, or 23 / 26. In some preferred embodiments, the length ratio of the justice chain to the antisense chain is 19 / 21 or 21 / 23.
[0242] In this disclosure, the sense strand and the antisense strand can be fully complementary or substantially complementary. When they are substantially complementary, there are no more than 3 mismatched bases in the double-stranded region formed by the sense strand and the antisense strand.
[0243] In some embodiments, after the sense and antisense strands are at least partially complementary to form a double-stranded region, the sense, antisense, or combination thereof has protruding nucleotides extending out of the double-stranded region. The number of protruding nucleotides can be one or more, for example, one or two. Furthermore, the one or two protruding nucleotides can be located at the 5' end, 3' end, or both ends of any antisense or sense strand, and each protruding nucleotide can be of any type. For example, in the case where the sense strand consists of a 21-bit sequence A+D and the antisense strand consists of a 21-bit sequence B+E, the nucleotides at positions 1-19 of sequence A are completely anticomplementary to those at positions 1-19 of sequence B in the direction from the 5' end to the 3' end, thereby forming protruding nucleotides at the 3' end of sequences D and E, respectively. For example, when the sense strand consists of a 19-position sequence A and the antisense strand consists of a 21-position sequence B+E, the nucleotides 1-19 of sequence A are completely anticomplementary to those 1-19 of sequence B in the direction from the 5' end to the 3' end, thus forming a protruding nucleotide at the 3' end of sequence E on the antisense strand.
[0244] In some embodiments, the sense strand and the antisense strand are at least partially complementary to form the double-stranded region, and the 3' end of the sense strand has 1-2 protruding nucleotides extending out of the double-stranded region, while the 3' end of the antisense strand is blunt. In some embodiments, the sense strand and the antisense strand are at least partially complementary to form the double-stranded region, and the 3' end of the antisense strand has 1-2 protruding nucleotides extending out of the double-stranded region, while the 3' end of the sense strand is blunt. In some embodiments, the sense strand and the antisense strand are at least partially complementary to form the double-stranded region, and both the sense strand and the antisense strand have 1-2 protruding nucleotides extending out of the double-stranded region at their 3' ends. In some embodiments, the sense strand and the antisense strand are at least partially complementary to form the double-stranded region, and both the sense strand and the antisense strand have blunt 3' ends.
[0245] In this document, the double-stranded oligonucleotides are modified in the sense strand and / or antisense strand, and such modified double-stranded oligonucleotides are referred to herein as "double-stranded oligonucleotide modifiers".
[0246] In some embodiments, each nucleotide of the sense strand is independently a modified or unmodified nucleotide. In some embodiments, each nucleotide of the antisense strand is independently a modified or unmodified nucleotide.
[0247] In some embodiments, any two linked nucleotides in the sense strand are linked by a phosphodiester bond or a phosphothiodiester bond. In some embodiments, any two linked nucleotides in the antisense strand are linked by a phosphodiester bond or a phosphothiodiester bond.
[0248] In some embodiments, the ribosome group of the 5' terminal nucleotide of the positive strand is a 5' hydroxyl group.
[0249] In some embodiments, the ribosome of the 5' terminal nucleotide of the sense strand may have a 5' hydroxyl group, a 5' phosphate group, or a 5' phosphate-derived group. In some embodiments, the ribosome of the 5' terminal nucleotide of the antisense strand has a 5' hydroxyl group, a 5' phosphate group, or a 5' phosphate-derived group. The type of group at the 5' position of the ribosome depends on the preparation method used, which is known to those skilled in the art based on the corresponding preparation method.
[0250] For example, the structure of the 5' phosphate group is as follows: The structure of the 5' phosphate derivative group includes, but is not limited to: wait.
[0251] Furthermore, the double-stranded oligonucleotide is modified with siRNA.
[0252] In some embodiments, the siRNA modifier comprises a modification of at least one nucleotide. The nucleotide modification is selected from at least one of ribose group modification and base modification. In some embodiments, "nucleotide modification" refers to a nucleotide or nucleotide derivative formed by replacing the 2' hydroxyl group of the ribose group with another group, or a nucleotide whose base is a modified base. The nucleotide modification does not result in a significant weakening or loss of the siRNA's ability to suppress gene expression. For example, modified nucleotides disclosed in JK Watts, G.F. Deleavey, and MJ Damha, Chemically Modified siRNA: Tools and Applications. Drug Discov Today, 2008, 13(19-20):842-55 can be selected. Nucleotide modification can improve the stability of siRNA and maintain its high inhibitory efficiency against target genes.
[0253] For example, the modified nucleosides have the following structures:
[0254] Wherein, Base represents a base, such as A, U, G, C, or T. The hydroxyl group at the 2' position of the ribosome is replaced by R. These hydroxyl groups at the 2' position of the ribosome can be replaced by various groups known to those skilled in the art; for example, R can be selected from halogens, alkyl groups, alkoxy groups, substituted alkyl groups, and substituted alkoxy groups.

[0256] In some embodiments, the 2'-substituted alkoxy-modified nucleotide is a nucleotide modified with 2'-methoxyethoxy (2'-O-CH2-CH2-O-CH3), a nucleotide modified with 2'-O-CH2-CH=CH2, etc.
[0257] In some embodiments, the 2'-substituted alkyl-modified nucleotide is a 2'-CH2-CH2-CH=CH2 modified nucleotide, etc.
[0258] In some embodiments, the modification of the nucleotide is a modification of its bases. Base modifications can be of various types known to those skilled in the art.

In some embodiments, the nucleotide derivative can be an isonucleotide, a bridged nucleic acid (BNA), or an acyclic nucleotide. A BNA refers to a restricted or inaccessible nucleotide. A BNA can contain a bridging structure with a "fixed" C3'-endoglucan condensation, such as a five-membered, six-membered, or seven-membered ring. This bridge is typically incorporated into the 2',4' position of the ribose to provide a 2',4'-BNA nucleotide, such as LNA, ENA, cET, etc.
[0260] The nucleosides of LNA are shown in formula (1), the nucleosides of ENA are shown in formula (2), and the nucleosides of cET are shown in formula (3):

[0268] In some embodiments, the nucleotides in the nucleic acid are replaced with isonucleotides, also referred to as isonucleotide modification in the context of this disclosure. In some embodiments, isonucleotide modification includes incorporating an isonucleotide at one or more sites on the sense and / or antisense strands of the siRNA to be modified, in place of the native nucleoside for coupling at the corresponding positions.

In some embodiments, Ab or AbAb may be added to the 3' end of the antisense strand. In some embodiments, the 5' end of the sense strand may include one or more additional debase residues (e.g., (Ab) or (AbAb)). In some embodiments, UUAb, UAb, or Ab is added to the 3' end of the sense strand. In some embodiments, a debase (deoxyribose) residue may be replaced with a ribitol (debase ribose) residue.

In some embodiments, cPrpN is added to the 5' and / or 3' ends of the antisense strand via a phosphothioester bond.
[0275] In some embodiments, the double-stranded ribonucleic acid (siRNA) modifier includes modification of a phosphodiester bond at at least one position. In some embodiments, the modification of the phosphodiester bond refers to the substitution of at least one oxygen atom in the phosphodiester bond by a sulfur atom to form a phosphothiodiester bond.

[0364] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient may be, for example, a carrier, transporter, diluent, and / or delivery polymer.
[0365] On the other hand, this disclosure provides the use of the above-described oligonucleotide conjugate or the above-described pharmaceutical composition in the preparation of a medicament.
[0366] In some embodiments, the drug is used to prevent and / or treat diseases associated with lung disorders and diseases associated with muscle tissue (including skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle). In some embodiments, the drug is used to prevent and / or treat lung-related diseases.
[0367] In some embodiments, the drug is used to prevent and / or treat tumor-related diseases.
[0368] In this disclosure, the ligand of the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor serves as a transport and delivery tool to deliver various oligonucleotide agents (e.g., RNAi reagents) to target sites.
[0369] As an example, the oligonucleotide conjugates of this disclosure may be MUC5AC RNAi reagents, for example, reagents may contain a ligand of the integrin αvβ6 protein receptor of this disclosure and siRNA modifiers targeting MUC5AC, which are designed to target a specific location on the MUC5AC gene (e.g., NM_001304359.2).
[0370] MUC5AC is a transcriptionally regulated secretory mucin expressed in the pulmonary airway epithelium and in other mucosal tissues (e.g., gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary system, eye, and ear) (Lillehoj et al., Int Rev CellMolBiol, 2013). In the airways, MUC5AC and MUC5B are the major gel-forming mucins. MUC5B is constitutively expressed and is essential for mucociliary clearance (Roy et al., Nature 2014). In normal subjects, MUC5B expression is relatively higher than MUC5AC expression in the trachea and proximal airways, with this ratio further increasing in the distal airways, and MUC5AC expression is almost undetectable in the distal and terminal bronchioles (Okuda et al., AJRCCM 2019). MUC5AC is typically expressed at low levels in the airways. MUC5AC expression can be robustly induced by external stressors such as pro-inflammatory mediators (including, for example, type II cytokines: IL-4, IL-9, IL-17, IL-23, and IL-13), harmful inhaled substances (e.g., cigarette smoke, acrolein, toxic gases), viral infections, and allergens. The resulting excessive mucus secretion and over-concentration are understood as a common pathogenic mechanism associated with airway obstruction in severe asthma and other mucooblocclusion lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), non-CF bronchiectasis (NCFB), and primary ciliary dyskinetic disorder (PCD) (Boucher, NEJM 2019). In patients with asthma, COPD, and NCFB, overexpression and secretion of MUC5AC lead to airway luminal narrowing, airway obstruction, and exacerbation (Dunican et al., JCI 2017; Bonser et al., JCI). 2016; Kesimer et al., NEJM 2017; Ramsey et al., AJRCCM 2019). A genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified a novel MUC5AC allele that was associated with increased MUC5AC expression and moderate to severe asthma (Shrine et al., Lancet RespirMed 2019). Experimental evidence from MUC5AC-deficient mice confirms that MUC5AC-mediated airway obstruction is a major cause of airway hyperresponsiveness to allergens, independent of inflammation and bronchoconstriction (Evans et al., Nat Commun, 2015).
[0371] Increased MUC5AC expression has been observed in malignant tumors such as lung adenocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, salivary gland cancer, breast cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, ovarian cancer, and other tumors (Krishn et al., Carcinogenesis 2018), where it has been associated with tumor cell migration and invasiveness. Loss-of-function mutations in MUC5AC and other mucin genes are significantly deficient in tumor cells, suggesting that mucin overexpression may prevent tumors from being recognized by immune cells (Gorlov et al., Cancer Genetics 2019). Tumor MUC5AC overexpression is associated with progression and poor survival in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (Bauer et al., JCI Insight 2018). MUC5AC overexpression is also associated with many other conditions, including allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinitis and sinusitis, otitis media, Barrett's esophagus, pancreatitis, and inflammatory bowel disease (Krishn et al., Carcinogenesis 2018).
[0372] The use of MUC5AC RNAi reagents provides a method for the therapeutic (including preventative) treatment of diseases or disorders, where reduced MUC5AC gene expression and / or reduced MUC5AC protein levels can provide therapeutic benefits for said diseases or disorders. The MUC5AC RNAi reagents disclosed herein can be used to treat a variety of diseases, including mucoobulent lung diseases (such as asthma, CF, COPD, NCFB, PCD), allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, interstitial lung disease, cancers (such as lung adenocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, salivary gland cancer, breast cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, ovarian cancer, and other tumors), respiratory infections (such as respiratory syncytial virus, influenza, rhinovirus), otitis media, inflammatory bowel disease, cholelithiasis, allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinitis and sinusitis, and nasal polyposis. In some embodiments, the MUC5AC RNAi reagents disclosed herein can be used to treat mucoobulent lung diseases, such as severe asthma or COPD. The MUC5AC RNAi reagents can be further used to treat, for example, various cancers. Such treatments involve administering a MUC5AC RNAi agent to humans or animals with elevated or enhanced MUC5AC gene expression and / or MUC5AC protein levels above the desired level.
[0373] In some embodiments, the MUC5AC RNAi reagent D-ER-FY004-mN010 disclosed herein exhibits an inhibition rate of over 75% against the MUC5AC target gene in C57BL / 6j mice; while the MUC5AC RNAi reagent D-ER-FY004-m005 disclosed herein, under the same experimental conditions, exhibits an inhibition rate of less than 56% against the MUC5AC target gene in C57BL / 6j mice.
[0374] In some embodiments, the oligonucleotide conjugates disclosed herein relate to RAGE RNAi reagents and MMP7 RNAi reagents.
[0375] The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a transmembrane receptor containing an extracellular ligand-binding domain and an amino acid cytoplasmic tail, used for intracellular signaling activation. RAGE is a well-known multi-ligand receptor that can interact with various ligands, such as advanced glycation end products (AGEs), S-100 protein, and HMGB1, leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inflammatory pathogenesis, cell proliferation, and autophagy. Therefore, in lung epithelial cells, reduced RAGE expression may lead to a reduction in RAGE-dependent inflammatory pathways, thereby slowing the frequency and progression of asthma attacks in patients.
[0376] Matrix metalloproteinase 7 (“MMP7” or “matrix lysozyme”) is the smallest member (28 kDa) of the metalloproteinase (MMP) family. Composed of 24 associated zinc-dependent secretory endopeptidases with diverse substrates and functions, it is capable of degrading components of the extracellular matrix (e.g., elastin, proteoglycans, type IV collagen, fibronectin, and core proteins (proteoglycans)) and cleaving and regulating the activity of non-extracellular matrix substrates, such as cytokines (Fujishima et al., Arch Pathol Lab Med (2010); Craig et al., Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol (2015)). These functional roles in extracellular matrix remodeling and regulation of cytokine signaling link MMP family members to the pathogenesis of cancer, chronic inflammation, and fibrosis. MMP7 is constitutively expressed and secreted by epithelial cells throughout the body (including glandular epithelium of the skin, lungs, liver, intestine, pancreas, salivary glands, and reproductive tract) and plays a role in epithelial cell repair (Pilcher et al., Ann NY Acad). Sci (1999)). Increased MMP7 expression is associated with pathogenic pulmonary fibrosis (Rosas et al., plos (2008)). Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a specific type of fibrosis, a chronic lung disease that is often fatal, with a relatively unpredictable clinical course and rate of disease progression (Zuo et al., Proc NatlAcad). SciUSA (2002)). Increased expression of MMP7 in peripheral blood, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and lung tissue is known in patients with IPF. Serum MMP7 expression is a potent serum biomarker for IPF, associated with its severity and progression. Consistent with its known mechanisms, MMP7 regulates multiple pathways leading to abnormal function of epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells in IPF. Notably, MMP7 knockout mice exhibit protective effects against bleomycin-mediated lung injury (a standard rodent model of IPF), demonstrating reduced pulmonary inflammation, fibrosis, and mortality, suggesting a pathogenic role for MMP7 in IPF (Craig et al., Journal of Respiratory Cell & Biology (2015)). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have shown that gain-of-function of the MMP7 gene variant rs1 1568818AA is associated with IPF risk. Furthermore, in such GWAS studies, MMP7 gene variants have been associated with a variety of cancers and sclerosis (Moreno-Ortiz et al., Genet MolRes (2014)).
[0377] Effective delivery of RNAi agents to cells in vivo requires specific targeting and substantial protection of the extracellular environment, especially serum proteins. RNA interference-based therapies have provided promising clinical data for the treatment of liver-related diseases. However, RNAi delivery to extrahepatic tissues remains a barrier, limiting the application of RNAi-based therapies. The integrin αvβ6 protein receptor ligand-RNAi drug conjugate disclosed herein can not only effectively deliver RNAi drugs to the lungs to treat various lung diseases, but also achieve effective extrahepatic delivery to other sites, such as muscle tissue, including skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue.
[0378] Integrin αvβ6 protein receptor ligand-RNAi drug conjugates can be used for the treatment and / or prevention of diseases such as myosin-associated muscle hypertrophy, congenital myasthenia gravis, myotonic dystrophy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), Pompe disease, PLN cardiomyopathy, muscle spasms, obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM), familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC), heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF), atrial fibrillation (AFIB), ventricular fibrillation (VFIB), angina pectoris, myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure or heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFREF), supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), or arrhythmias or congestive heart failure (CHF).
[0379] Target genes involved may include, but are not limited to: adrenaline receptor β1 (ADRB1), calcium voltage-gated channel subunit αC (CACNAIC), calcium voltage-gated channel subunit G (CACNAIG) (T-type calcium channel), angiotensin receptor type 1 (AGTR1), sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 2 (SCN2A), hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channel 1 (HCN1), hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channel 4 (HCN4), hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channel 3 (HCN3), potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 5 (KCNA5), potassium intrarectifier channel subfamily J member 3 (KCNJ3), potassium intrarectifier channel subfamily J member 4 (KCNJ4), and phosphatidylcholine receptors. The following proteins are listed: white protein (PLN), calcium / calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIδ (CAMK2D), phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1), myostatin (MSTN), cholinergic receptor nicotinic α1 subunit, cholinergic receptor nicotinic β1 subunit (CHRNB1), cholinergic receptor nicotinic δ subunit, cholinergic receptor nicotinic Epsilon subunit, cholinergic receptor nicotinyl γ subunit (CHRNE), type XIII collagen α1 chain (COL13A1), docking protein 7 (DOK7), LDL receptor-associated protein 4 (LRP4), muscle-associated receptor tyrosine kinase (MUSK), synaptic receptor-associated protein (RAPSN), sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 4 (SCN4A), dual Homeobox 4 (DUX4), myotonic kinase (DMPK), glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1), motor neuron 1 (SMN1), α-glucosidase (GAA), etc.

[0385] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method for reducing the expression of a target gene in a subject, the method comprising administering a conjugate of the present disclosure to the subject, including contacting the cells with the conjugate, the conjugate comprising an antisense strand complementary to the target gene; a sense strand at least partially complementary to the antisense strand; and one or more ligands as described in the present disclosure.
[0386] definition
[0387] Unless otherwise stated, the following terms as used in this application shall have the following meanings. A particular term should not be considered uncertain or unclear unless specifically defined, but should be understood in accordance with its ordinary meaning in the art. When a trade name appears herein, it is intended to refer to the corresponding product or its active ingredient.
[0388] As used in this article, the term "oligonucleotide" refers to a polymer of linked nucleosides, each of which may be independently modified or unmodified.
[0389] As used herein, “RNAi reagent” (also referred to as “RNAi trigger”) means a composition containing RNA or RNA-like (e.g., chemically modified RNA) oligonucleotide molecules capable of degrading or inhibiting (e.g., under appropriate conditions, degrading or inhibiting) the translation of a targeted messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript in a sequence-specific manner. RNAi reagents as used herein can function via RNA interference mechanisms (i.e., by inducing RNA interference through interaction with RNA interference pathways in mammalian cells, such as RNA-induced silencing complexes or RISC), or via alternative mechanisms or pathways. Although it is believed, as the terminology is used herein, that RNAi reagents function primarily through RNA interference mechanisms, the disclosed RNAi reagents are not bound by or limited to any particular pathway or mechanism of action. The RNAi reagents disclosed herein contain a sense strand and an antisense strand, and include, but are not limited to, small (or short) interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), microRNA (miRNA), short hairpin RNA (shRNA), and dicer substrates. The antisense strand of the RNAi reagent described herein is at least partially complementary to the targeted mRNA (e.g., MUC5AC mRNA). The RNAi reagent may include one or more modified nucleotides and / or one or more non-phosphodiester bonds, as well as the ligands disclosed herein.
[0390] In this art, “G,” “C,” “A,” “T,” and “U” typically represent the bases of guanine, cytosine, adenine, thymine, and uracil, respectively. However, it is also generally known in the art that each of “G,” “C,” “A,” “T,” and “U” typically also represents a nucleotide containing guanine, cytosine, adenine, thymine, and uracil as a base, respectively. This is a common practice in representing deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequences and / or ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequences. Therefore, in the context of this disclosure, the meanings of “G,” “C,” “A,” “T,” and “U” include all of the above-mentioned possible cases. However, it should be understood that the term “ribonucleotide” or “nucleotide” can also refer to a modified nucleotide (as further detailed below) or one with an alternative substitution. Those skilled in the art will recognize that guanine, cytosine, adenine, and uracil can be substituted with other parts without substantially altering the base-pairing properties of an oligonucleotide (including a nucleotide with such a substitution). For example, without limitation, a nucleotide including inosine as its base can be base-paired with a nucleotide including adenine, cytosine, or uracil. Thus, a nucleotide containing uracil, guanine, or adenine can be replaced in the nucleotide sequence of the dsRNA characterized in this disclosure by a nucleotide containing, for example, inosine. In another example, adenine and cytosine anywhere in the oligonucleotide can be replaced with guanine and uracil, respectively, to form a GU swing base pairing with the target mRNA. Sequences containing such replacement portions are suitable for the compositions and methods characterized in this disclosure. The terms “double-stranded oligonucleotide,” “double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecule,” and “dsRNA” as used in the context of this disclosure are used interchangeably. The term “dsRNA” refers to a complex of ribonucleic acid molecules having a double-stranded structure comprising two antiparallel and substantially complementary nucleic acid strands, described as having “sense” and “antisense” orientation relative to the target gene. In some embodiments, double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) triggers the degradation of target RNA, such as mRNA, through a post-transcriptional gene silencing mechanism (referred to herein as RNA interference or RNAi).
[0391] Typically, the majority of nucleotides in each strand of a dsRNA molecule are ribonucleotides; however, as detailed herein, each or both strands may also include one or more non-ribonucleotides, such as deoxyribonucleotides and / or modified nucleotides. Additionally, as used herein, “double-stranded ribonucleic acid” can include chemically modified ribonucleotides, phosphate backbones, etc. These modifications can include all types of modifications disclosed herein or known in the art.
[0392] In some embodiments, the double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) of this disclosure is siRNA, which interacts with the mRNA sequence transcribed from the target gene to guide the cleavage of the target RNA. Not wishing to be bound by theory, long double-stranded RNA introduced into the cell is broken down into siRNA by a type III endonuclease called Dicer (Sharp et al., Genes Dev. 2001, 15:485). Dicer (a ribonuclease III-like enzyme) processes dsRNA into short 19-23 base pairs of interfering RNA with a characteristic dibase 3' overhang (Bernstein et al., (2001) Nature, 409:363). These siRNAs are then incorporated into the RNA-inducible silencing complex (RISC), where one or more helicases unwind the siRNA duplex, enabling complementary antisense strands to guide target recognition (Nykanen et al., (2001) Cell 107:309). Once bound to a suitable target mRNA, one or more endonucleases within the RISC cleave the target to induce silencing (Elbashir et al., (2001) Genes Dev. 15:188).
[0393] As used in the context of this disclosure, the term "protruding nucleotide" refers to one or more unpaired nucleotides that protrude from the double-stranded structure of a dsRNA when one 3' end of one strand extends beyond the 5' end of the other strand, or vice versa. "Flat-ended" or "blunt-terminated" means that there are no unpaired nucleotides at the said end of the double-stranded ribonucleic acid, i.e., no nucleotide protrusions. A "flat-terminated" double-stranded ribonucleic acid is a dsRNA that is double-stranded throughout its entire length, i.e., without nucleotide protrusions at either end of the molecule.
[0394] The term "antisense strand" refers to a strand of double-stranded RNA that has a region that is substantially complementary to the target sequence. Mismatches at the terminal regions are the most tolerable when the complementary region is not perfectly complementary to the target sequence, and if mismatches do occur, they are typically within one or more terminal regions, such as within 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 nucleotides at the 5' and / or 3' ends.
[0395] The term "sense chain" refers to a double-stranded RNA strand containing a region that is substantially complementary to the antisense chain region.
[0396] When referring to the expression of a given gene, the terms “silence,” “reduction,” “inhibition,” or “downregulation” as used herein mean that, when a cell, cell assembly, tissue, organ, or subject is treated with the RNAi reagent described herein, the expression of said gene is reduced compared to a second cell, cell assembly, tissue, organ, or subject that has not been so treated, measured by the level of RNA transcribed from said gene or the level of polypeptide, protein, or protein subunit translated from mRNA in the cell, cell assembly, tissue, organ, or subject in which said gene is transcribed.
[0397] As used in this article, the terms "sequence" and "nucleotide sequence" refer to a series or order of nucleobases or nucleotides described by consecutive letters using standard nomenclature. Unless otherwise indicated, nucleotide sequences are written from left to right in a 5' to 3' orientation.
[0398] As used herein and unless otherwise stated, the term "complementary" when used to describe a first nucleobase or nucleotide sequence (e.g., the positive strand of an RNAi reagent or the targeted mRNA) relative to a second nucleobase or nucleotide sequence (e.g., an antisense strand of an RNAi reagent or a single-stranded antisense oligonucleotide) refers to the ability of an oligonucleotide or polynucleotide comprising the first nucleotide sequence to hybridize with an oligonucleotide comprising the second nucleotide sequence (forming base-pair hydrogen bonds under mammalian physiological conditions (or other suitable in vivo or in vitro conditions)) and to form a double-stranded or double-helix structure under certain standard conditions. Those skilled in the art will be able to select the set of conditions most suitable for the hybridization assay. A complementary sequence contains either a Watson-Crick base pair or a non-Watson-Crick base pair and contains, at least to the extent that the hybridization requirements above are satisfied, a native or modified nucleotide or nucleotide mimic. Sequence identity or complementarity is independent of modification. For example, for the purpose of determining identity or complementarity, a and Af, as defined herein, are complementary to U (or T) and identical to A.
[0399] As used in this article, "perfect complementarity" means that in a hybridization pair of nucleobase or nucleotide sequences, all (100%) bases in the sequential sequence of the first oligonucleotide will hybridize with the same number of bases in the sequential sequence of the second oligonucleotide. The sequential sequence may contain all or part of the first or second nucleotide sequence.
[0400] As used in this article, "partial complementarity" means that in a hybridization pair of nucleobase or nucleotide sequences, at least 70% (but not all) of the bases in the sequential sequence of the first oligonucleotide will hybridize with the same number of bases in the sequential sequence of the second oligonucleotide. The sequential sequence may contain all or part of the first or second nucleotide sequence.
[0401] As used herein, "substantially complementary" means that in a hybridization pair of nucleobase or nucleotide sequences, at least 85% (but not all) of the bases in the sequential sequence of the first oligonucleotide will hybridize with the same number of bases in the sequential sequence of the second oligonucleotide. The sequential sequence may contain all or part of the first or second nucleotide sequence.
[0402] As used herein, the terms “complementary,” “fully complementary,” “partially complementary,” and “substantially complementary” are used to describe nucleobase or nucleotide matching between the sense and antisense strands of the RNAi reagent or between the antisense strand of the RNAi reagent and the sequence of the targeted mRNA (e.g., MUC5AC mRNA).
[0403] When referring to RNAi reagents, the phrase “delivered to / introduced into cells” as used herein means the functional delivery of RNAi reagents into cells. The phrase “functional delivery” means the delivery of RNAi reagents to cells in a manner that enables them to have the intended biological activity (e.g., sequence-specific inhibition of gene expression).
[0404] The term "substituted" refers to the substitution of one or more hydrogen atoms on a specific atom by a substituent, provided that the valence state of the specific atom is normal and the resulting compound is stable. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., =O), it means that two hydrogen atoms are substituted; oxo substitution does not occur on aromatic groups.
[0405] The terms “optional” or “optionally” mean that the event or condition subsequently described may or may not occur, including both the occurrence and non-occurrence of said event or condition. For example, the ethyl group “optionally” being halogenated means that the ethyl group can be unsubstituted (-CH2CH3), monosubstituted (e.g., -CH2CH2F), polysubstituted (e.g., -CHFCH2F, -CH2CHF2, etc.), or fully substituted (-CF2CF3). Those skilled in the art will understand that for any group containing one or more substituents, no substitution or substitution pattern that is spatially impossible and / or cannot be synthesized is introduced.
[0406] In this article, () m -n indicates that the part has an integer number of repeating units within a given range. For example, "-(CH2CH2O)". 1-12 "-" indicates that the group can have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 repeats of the units in parentheses.
[0407] When any variable (e.g., R) 14 When a group appears more than once in the composition or structure of a compound, its definition is independent in each case. Therefore, for example, if a group is surrounded by two R...14 Replaced, then each R 14 Each has its own independent options.
[0408] As used herein, unless otherwise stated, “alkyl” means and comprises having a specified number of carbon atoms (i.e., C1-C1). 12 A saturated straight-chain (i.e., unbranched) or branched monovalent hydrocarbon chain, or a combination thereof, having one to twelve carbon atoms. A specific alkyl group is an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms (“C1-C2”). 20 Alkyl groups ("C1-C1") having 1 to 10 carbon atoms 10 Alkyl groups (“C6-C10”) having 6 to 10 carbon atoms 10 Alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, alkyl groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (“C1-C6 alkyl”), alkyl groups having 2 to 6 carbon atoms (“C2-C6 alkyl”), alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (“C1-C4 alkyl”), or alkyl groups having 1 to 3 carbon atoms (“C1-C3 alkyl”). Examples of alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-decyl, etc.
[0409] As used herein, "alkylene" refers to the same residue as an alkyl group but with a divalent valence. Specific alkylene groups are those having 1 to 20 carbon atoms ("C1-C2"). 20 Alkylenes (“C1-C1”) and alkylenes having 1 to 10 carbon atoms. 10 Alkylenes (“C6-C10”) and alkylenes having 6 to 10 carbon atoms. 10 Alkylenes (“C1-C6 alkylenes”), alkylenes (“C1-C5 alkylenes”), alkylenes (“C1-C4 alkylenes”), or alkylenes (“C1-C3 alkylenes”) having 1 to 5 carbon atoms. Examples of alkylenes include, but are not limited to, groups such as methylene (-CH2-), ethylene (-CH2CH2-), propylene (-CH2CH2CH2-), isopropylene (-CH2CH(CH3)-), butylene (-CH2(CH2)2CH2-), isobutylene (-CH2CH(CH3)CH2-), pentylene (-CH2(CH2)3CH2-), hexylene (-CH2(CH2)4CH2-), heptylene (-CH2(CH2)5CH2-), and octylene (-CH2(CH2)6CH2-).

[0689] (1-1) Preparation of siRNA
[0690] 1.1 Synthesis of the Justice Chain (SS Chain)
[0691] The oligonucleotide was synthesized using a solid-phase phosphoramide method, employing a blank CPG solid-phase support as the starting cycle. Nucleoside monomers were sequentially linked from the 3'-5' direction according to the nucleotide arrangement of the positive strand. Each linkage of a nucleoside monomer involved four steps: deprotection, coupling, oxidation or thiolation, and capping. The synthesis scale was 1 μmol of oligonucleotides. The synthetic conditions are as follows:
[0692] The nucleoside monomers were provided in 1.0 g / 10 mL acetonitrile solution. The reaction conditions were the same for each step, i.e., the temperature was 25 °C. Deprotection was performed three times using a 3% trichloroacetic acid-dichloromethane solution.
[0693] The activator used in the coupling reaction was an acetonitrile solution of 0.25 mol / L 5-ethylthiotetrazole, and the coupling reaction was carried out for 8 min.
[0694] Oxidation was performed using 0.05 mol / L iodine in tetrahydrofuran / pyridine / water (70 / 20 / 10, v / v / v) for 0.5 min; or thiolation was performed using 0.05 mol / L N,N-dimethyl-N'-(3-thio-3H-1,2,4-dithiazo-5-yl)formamidin in acetonitrile / pyridine (2 / 3, v / v) for 8 min.

[0696] 1.2 Synthesis of the antisense chain (AS chain)
[0697] The solid-phase phosphoramide synthesis method utilizes a blank CPG solid-phase support as the starting cycle, and nucleoside monomers are sequentially linked from the 3'-5' direction according to the nucleotide arrangement sequence of the antisense strand. Each linkage of a nucleoside monomer involves four steps: deprotection, coupling, oxidation or thiolation, and capping. The synthesis conditions for 1 μmol of oligonucleotides in the antisense strand are the same as those for the sense strand.

The supernatants were combined, centrifuged and concentrated, and the crude product was purified.
[0701] 1.3.2 Purification
