Abstract
Description
Nucleoside and nucleotide analogs, double-stranded oligonucleotides and conjugates containing nucleotide analogs and their applications
[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0002] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application with application number 202311421634.X filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on October 30, 2023, and entitled “Nucleoside and nucleotide analogs, double-stranded oligonucleotides and conjugates containing nucleotide analogs and their applications”, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field
[0003] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of small nucleic acid drugs, and particularly relates to nucleoside and nucleotide analogs, double-stranded oligonucleotides containing the nucleotide analogs, double-stranded oligonucleotide conjugates, and uses thereof. Background Art
[0004] Double-stranded oligonucleotides are a class of drugs synthesized artificially. They act on mRNA through complementary base pairing, interfering with gene unwinding, replication, transcription, mRNA splicing and processing, and even output and translation. This causes abnormally coded genes to lose their function, thereby preventing the expression of "wrong" proteins, thereby exerting a unique mechanism for regulating the transcription and translation process of disease genes at the genetic level.
[0005] Due to the unique chemical structure of oligonucleotide drugs, they exhibit poor drugability: large molecular weight, strong hydrophilicity, high negative charge, do not follow Lipinski's principle, and have poor pharmacokinetic characteristics, cannot pass through biological membranes, and may have off-target effects.
[0006] The field has been developing double-stranded oligonucleotides with both good activity and low off-target effects. In order to develop double-stranded oligonucleotides with both good pharmaceutical activity and low off-target effects, the inventors found that double-stranded oligonucleotides containing nucleotide analogs can have lower off-target effects.

[0092] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
[0093] Explanation of terms
[0094] In this document, the terms “include” or “comprising” are open expressions, that is, including the contents specified in the present disclosure, but not excluding other contents.
[0095] As used herein, the terms "optionally," "optional," or "optionally" generally mean that the subsequently described event or circumstance may but need not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.
[0096] As used herein, the term "optionally substituted" is used to define a variable that can be unsubstituted or substituted.
[0097] As used herein, the term "unsubstituted" means that the designated group bears no substituents.
[0098] The terms "substituted," "substituted," and "substituted" are used interchangeably herein to indicate that any one or more hydrogen atoms in a given structure are replaced by a specified substituent (e.g., C 1-3 Alkyl, C 1-3 alkoxy or halogen), provided that the normal valence of the designated atom is not exceeded and the substitution results in a stable compound. Unless otherwise indicated, a substituted group may have a substituent at each substitutable position of the group. When more than one position in a given structural formula can be substituted with one or more substituents selected from a specified group, the substituents may be the same or different at each substitutable position.
[0099] In this document, the terms "each... is independently selected from" and "... are each independently selected from" and "... are independently selected from" are interchangeable and should be understood in a broad sense. They can mean that in different groups, the specific options expressed by the same symbols do not affect each other, or that in the same group, the specific options expressed by the same symbols do not affect each other.
[0100] As used herein, the term "stereoisomers" refers to compounds that have identical chemical constitution but differ in the way the atoms or groups are arranged in space. Stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, conformers (rotamers), geometric isomers (cis / trans) isomers, atropisomers, and the like.
[0101] As used herein, the term "chiral" refers to a molecule that is non-superimposable on its mirror image, while "achiral" refers to a molecule that is superimposable on its mirror image.
[0102] As used herein, the term "enantiomers" refers to two non-superimposable isomers of a compound that are mirror images of each other.
[0103] As used herein, the term "diastereoisomer" refers to stereoisomers that have two or more chiral centers and whose molecules are not mirror images of each other. Diastereoisomers have different physical properties, such as melting points, boiling points, spectral properties, and reactivity. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated by high-resolution analytical procedures such as electrophoresis and chromatography, for example, HPLC.
[0104] As used herein, the term "conjugation" refers to the covalent attachment of two or more chemical moieties, each with a specific function, to one another; accordingly, a "conjugate" refers to a compound formed by covalent attachment of two or more chemical moieties. Furthermore, a "drug conjugate" refers to a compound formed by covalent attachment of one or more chemical moieties with specific functions to an active drug. Sometimes, and especially in the examples, the "drug conjugate" of the present disclosure is also referred to as a "conjugate," "double-stranded oligonucleotide conjugate," or "siRNA conjugate." Drug conjugate should be understood as a general term for drug conjugates or a specific drug conjugate represented by a specific structural formula, depending on the context.
[0105] As used herein, the term "small interfering RNA (siRNA)" refers to a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of 17 to 25 nucleotides in length, comprising both a sense and an antisense strand. siRNAs mediate the targeted cleavage of RNA transcripts via the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) pathway by forming a silencing complex. Specifically, siRNAs direct the specific degradation of mRNA sequences through a process known as RNA interference (RNAi), inhibiting the translation of mRNA into amino acids and protein.
[0106] In this article, the term "antisense strand (or guide strand)" includes a region that is substantially complementary to a target sequence. The term "sense strand (or trailing strand)" refers to an iRNA chain that is substantially complementary to the antisense strand. The term "substantially complementary" refers to complete complementarity or at least partial complementarity, for example, the antisense strand is completely complementary to the target sequence or at least partially complementary. In the case of partial complementarity, mismatches can exist in the interior or terminal regions of the molecule, wherein the most tolerant mismatches exist in the terminal regions, for example, within 5, 4, 3 or 2 nucleotides of the 5'- and / or 3' end of the iRNA. It should be noted that "at least partially substantially complementary" between the antisense strand and the mRNA means that the antisense strand has a polynucleotide that is substantially complementary to a continuous portion of the mRNA of interest.
[0107] In this article, "substantially reverse complementary" means that there are no more than 3 base mismatches between the two nucleotide sequences involved; "substantially reverse complementary" means that there is no more than 1 base mismatch between the two nucleotide sequences involved; and "completely reverse complementary" means that there is no base mismatch between the two nucleotide sequences involved.
[0108] As used herein, the terms "treat," "treat," or "alleviate" are used interchangeably herein. These terms refer to an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results, including but not limited to a therapeutic benefit. "Therapeutic benefit" means eradication or amelioration of the underlying disorder being treated. As used herein, a therapeutic benefit is achieved by eradication or amelioration of one or more physiological symptoms associated with the underlying disorder, such that an improvement is observed in the subject, although the subject may still be afflicted with the underlying disorder.
[0109] As used herein, the terms "prevent" and "prevent" are used interchangeably to refer to an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results, including but not limited to prophylactic benefit. To obtain a "prophylactic benefit," a conjugate, RNAi agent, or composition can be administered to a subject at risk for a particular disease, or to a subject reporting one or more physiological symptoms of a disease, even though a diagnosis of the disease may not have yet been made.
[0110] As used herein, the term "ligand" generally refers to any compound or molecule that can covalently or otherwise chemically bind to a biologically active substance (such as an oligonucleotide). In certain embodiments, a ligand can interact directly or indirectly with another compound, such as a receptor. The receptor that interacts with the ligand can be present on the cell surface, or alternatively can be an intracellular and / or intercellular receptor. The interaction of the ligand with the receptor can result in a biochemical reaction, or can be simply a physical interaction or binding.
[0111] As used herein, the term "administer" generally refers to introducing the disclosed pharmaceutical formulation into a subject's body by any introduction or delivery route. Any method known to those skilled in the art for contacting cells, organs, or tissues with the drug may be employed. Administration may include, but is not limited to, intravenous, intraarterial, intranasal, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, subcutaneous, or oral administration. The daily dose may be divided into one, two, or more suitable dosage forms for administration at one, two, or more times during a certain time period.
[0112] As used herein, "pharmaceutical composition" may refer to a composition for use in treating a disease or in vitro cell culture experiments. When used in treating a disease, the term "pharmaceutical composition" generally refers to a unit dosage form and can be prepared by any of the methods well known in the pharmaceutical art. All methods include the step of combining the active ingredient with an excipient that constitutes one or more adjunct ingredients. Typically, the composition is prepared by uniformly and thoroughly combining the active siRNA with a liquid excipient, a finely divided solid excipient, or both.
[0113] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means that the substance or composition must be chemically and / or toxicologically compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and / or the mammal to be treated therewith. Preferably, the "pharmaceutically acceptable" herein refers to a substance approved by a federal regulatory agency or a state government or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in animals, particularly humans.
[0114] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" may include any solvent, solid excipient, diluent, or other liquid excipient, etc., suitable for the particular intended dosage form. Except to the extent that any conventional excipient is incompatible with the siRNA of the present disclosure, such as by producing any adverse biological effect or interacting in a deleterious manner with any other component of the pharmaceutically acceptable composition, their use is also contemplated by the present disclosure.
[0115] In addition to any conventional excipients, to the extent that they are incompatible with the siRNA of the present disclosure, such as by producing any adverse biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any other component of the pharmaceutically acceptable composition, their use is also contemplated by the present disclosure.

[0425] Methods for regulating the expression of specific genes in target cells
[0426] In the eighth aspect of the present disclosure, the present disclosure also provides a method for regulating the expression of a specific gene in a target cell, the method comprising: contacting the double-stranded oligonucleotide, and / or the double-stranded oligonucleotide conjugate, and / or the composition, and / or the pharmaceutical composition provided by the present disclosure with the target cell.
[0427] In some embodiments, the modulation refers to the inhibition of expression of a specific gene in a cell.
[0428] By introducing the double-stranded oligonucleotides disclosed herein, and / or the double-stranded oligonucleotide conjugates, and / or the compositions, and / or the pharmaceutical compositions into cells in which a specific gene is abnormally expressed, the purpose of inhibiting the expression of a specific gene in the cell can also be achieved through the mechanism of gene expression regulation. In some embodiments, the cells are hepatocytes. In some embodiments, the hepatocytes can be cells selected from hepatoma cell lines such as Hep3B, HepG2, Huh7, or isolated primary hepatocytes. In some embodiments, the hepatocytes are primary hepatocytes.
[0429] The method provided by the present disclosure is used to inhibit the expression of a specific gene in a cell.

[0654] (14-1) Synthesis of the Sense Chain (SS)
[0655] The method of phosphoramidite nucleic acid solid phase synthesis is used to initiate the cycle using the above-mentioned compounds (such as CR01008Z, CR01013Z, and L96-PS) connected to the solid phase support. Nucleoside monomers are connected one by one in the 3'-5' direction according to the nucleotide sequence (in the synthesis process, compound CR01008 and compound CR01013 are each considered as a nucleoside monomer). Each connection of a nucleoside monomer includes four steps: deprotection, coupling, capping, oxidation or sulfurization. The synthesis conditions are given as follows:
[0656] The nucleoside monomer was prepared into an acetonitrile solution with a concentration of 0.1 M.
[0657] The deprotection reaction conditions for each step were identical: 25°C, 70 seconds, a 3% vol. dichloroacetic acid solution in dichloromethane as the deprotection reagent, and a 5:1 molar ratio of dichloroacetic acid to the 4,4'-dimethoxytriphenylmethyl protecting group on the solid support.
[0658] The conditions for each coupling reaction were the same. The coupling reaction conditions were: a temperature of 25°C, a molar ratio of the nucleic acid sequence attached to the solid support to the nucleoside monomer of 1:10, a molar ratio of the nucleic acid sequence attached to the solid support to the coupling reagent of 1:65, a reaction time of 600 seconds, a 0.5 M solution of 5-ethylthio-1H-tetrazole in acetonitrile as the coupling reagent, and a 0.2 mol / L solution of hydrogenated xanthan gum in acetonitrile / pyridine (1:1 volume ratio of acetonitrile to pyridine) as the thiolation reagent.
[0659] The capping reaction conditions were identical for each step. The capping reaction conditions were: 25°C; 2 minutes; a 1:1 molar ratio of Cap1 and Cap2; Cap1: a 20% by volume N-methylimidazole solution in pyridine / acetonitrile (with a 3:5 volume ratio of pyridine to acetonitrile); and Cap2: a 20% by volume solution of acetic anhydride in acetonitrile. The molar ratio of the N-methylimidazole in Cap1 to the acetic anhydride in Cap2 to the nucleic acid sequence attached to the solid support was 1:1:1.
[0660] The oxidation reaction conditions were identical for each step. The oxidation reaction conditions were: temperature, 25°C; reaction time, 3 seconds; oxidizing agent concentration, 0.05 M iodine solution; a molar ratio of iodine to the nucleic acid sequence attached to the solid support during the coupling reaction, 30:1; and the oxidation reaction was performed in a water / pyridine mixture (1:9 by volume). The sulfidation reaction conditions were: temperature, 25°C; reaction time, 360 seconds; thiolation agent concentration, 0.2 M hydrogenated xanthan gum in pyridine solution; a molar ratio of thiolation agent to the nucleic acid sequence attached to the solid support during the coupling reaction, 4:1; and the sulfidation reaction was performed in a water / pyridine mixture (1:9 by volume).
[0661] After the last nucleoside monomer is connected, the nucleic acid sequence connected to the solid phase support is cut, deprotected, purified, desalted, and then freeze-dried to obtain the positive chain, wherein:
[0662] Cleavage and deprotection conditions were as follows: the synthesized nucleotide sequence attached to a solid support was added to 0.5 ml / μmol of 25% ammonia water at 55°C for 16 hours, the solvent was removed, and the product was concentrated to dryness in vacuo. After the ammonia treatment, the product was dissolved in 0.4 ml / μmol of N-methylpyrrolidone relative to the amount of single-stranded nucleic acid, followed by the addition of 0.3 ml / μmol of triethylamine and 0.6 ml / μmol of triethylamine trihydrofluoride to remove the 2'-O-TBDMS protection from the ribose.
[0663] Purification and desalting conditions: Nucleic acid purification was achieved using a preparative ion chromatography column (Source 15Q) with a NaCl gradient elution. Specifically, eluent 1 consisted of 20 mM sodium phosphate (pH 8.1) in a water / acetonitrile mixture (9:1 volume ratio of water to acetonitrile); eluent 2 consisted of 1.5 M sodium chloride, 20 mM sodium phosphate (pH 8.1) in a water / acetonitrile mixture (9:1 volume ratio of water to acetonitrile); the elution gradient was eluent 1:eluent 2 = (100:0) to (50:50). The product eluates were collected and combined, and desalted using a reversed-phase chromatography column. Desalting conditions included using a Sephadex column with Sephadex G25 as the filler and eluting with deionized water.
[0664] Detection: Purity was determined using ion exchange chromatography (IEX-HPLC); molecular weight was determined using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The measured molecular weight was compared with the theoretical value. If the measured and theoretical values were consistent, the compound was conjugated to the 3' end of the siRNA sense strand.
[0665] During the synthesis of the positive chain, three clusters of CR01008 (denoted as (CR01008×3) or (CR01008)×3) and three clusters of CR01013 (denoted as (CR01013×3) or (CR01013)×3) were obtained.

[0668] (14-2) Synthesis of antisense strand (AS)
[0669] The antisense chain was synthesized using a universal solid phase support. The deprotection, coupling, capping, oxidation or sulfurization reaction conditions, cleavage and deprotection conditions, purification and desalting conditions in the solid phase synthesis method of the antisense chain are the same as those in step (14-1) for synthesizing the sense chain.
[0670] Detection: Purity was determined by ion exchange chromatography (IEX-HPLC); molecular weight was determined by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The measured molecular weight was compared with the theoretical value. If the measured value was consistent with the theoretical value, the siRNA antisense strand was obtained.

[0701] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental animals C57BL / 6J mice used in this disclosure were purchased from Spef (Beijing) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.; the serum biochemical tests in this disclosure were commissioned to Beijing Sinoin Biotechnology Co., Ltd.; the pathological sections, staining and film reading in this disclosure were commissioned to Wuhan Saiweier Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
[0702] Method for evaluating the target gene inhibition activity of siRNA conjugates in mice
[0703] 6-8 week old C57BL / 6J mice were randomly divided into groups (all female) by body weight. The mice in each group were dosed according to body weight, and the mice were given a single dose of subcutaneous injection in the abdomen. Each siRNA conjugate was configured into a corresponding concentration (calculated as siRNA) solution with a PBS solution for administration, and the administration volume was 5 ml (in terms of siRNA) / kg (in terms of mice). The PBS control group was given a PBS solution (not containing drug conjugate) of 5 ml / kg (in terms of mice). The administration day was recorded as day 0 (recorded as D0), and at the preset time after administration, 5 mice were killed in each group. The mice that were killed were respectively subjected to gross dissection and the liver tissue of each mouse that was killed was collected, and the liver tissue was cut into about 2 mm 3 Small pieces were preserved with RNALater.
[0704] Liver tissue samples were collected from the RNAlater at different time points in different experimental groups and disrupted in a Tissuelyser II fully automatic tissue homogenizer for 60 seconds. Total RNA was then extracted using a fully automatic nucleic acid extractor (purchased from Zhejiang Hanwei Technology Co., Ltd.) and a nucleic acid extraction kit (purchased from Zhejiang Hanwei Technology Co., Ltd.) according to the standard operating procedures for total RNA extraction.
[0705] Take 1 μg of total RNA and use a reverse transcription kit (Promega, Reverse Transcription System, A3500) and select Oligo (dT) 15 reverse transcription primer. Prepare 20 μL reverse transcription system according to the instructions of the reverse transcription kit and complete the reverse transcription reaction. After the reaction is completed, add 80 μL RNase-Free water to the reverse transcription system to obtain cDNA solution. Then use a real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR kit (ABI, SYBR TM Select Master Mix, Catalog number: 4472908) to detect the expression level of target gene mRNA in liver tissue. In this real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method, primers for the target gene and primers for the internal reference gene are used to detect the target gene and the internal reference gene respectively. According to the method described in the instructions of the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR kit, 20μL Real-time PCR reaction system is configured for each PCR detection well. Each reaction system contains 5μL of the cDNA solution obtained by the above reverse transcription reaction, 10μL SYBR TM SelectMaster Mix, 0.5 μL 10 μM upstream primer, 0.5 μL 10 μM downstream primer, 4 μL RNase-Free H2O. The prepared reaction system was placed in a real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument (ABI, StepOnePlus TM ) were used for real-time PCR amplification using a three-step method: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 10 minutes, followed by denaturation at 95°C for 30 seconds, annealing at 60°C for 30 seconds, and extension at 72°C for 30 seconds. The denaturation, annealing, and extension process was repeated for 40 cycles. In this real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method, the expression level and inhibition rate of the target gene mRNA in each test group were relatively quantitatively calculated using the ΔΔCt method. The calculation method is as follows:
[0706] ΔCt(test group) = Ct(test group target gene) – Ct(test group reference gene)
[0707] ΔCt(control group) = Ct(control group target gene) – Ct(control group internal reference gene)
[0708] ΔΔCt(test group) = ΔCt(test group) – ΔCt(average of control group)
[0709] ΔΔCt(control group) = ΔCt(control group) – ΔCt(average of control group)
[0710] Here, ΔCt (control group average) is the arithmetic mean of the ΔCt (control group) values of five mice sacrificed at the same time point in the control group. Therefore, each mouse in the test group and the control group corresponds to a ΔΔCt value.
[0711] The target gene mRNA expression level in the test group was normalized with the control group as the benchmark, and the remaining expression level of the target gene mRNA in the control group was defined as 100%.
[0712] Relative residual expression level of target gene mRNA in the test group = 2-ΔΔCt (test group) × 100%
[0713] Test group target gene mRNA expression inhibition rate = (1-test group target gene mRNA relative remaining expression level) × 100%
[0714] Unless otherwise stated, the in vivo activity data are based on The experimental data were plotted and analyzed using GraphPadprism 8.0 software.
[0715] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the in vivo activity experimental data used in this disclosure are based on The experimental data were plotted and analyzed using GraphPad prism 8.0 software.

The NM022 group and the NM023 group are isomers of each other.
[0718] 6-8 week old C57BL / 6j mice were randomly divided into four groups of 10 mice each based on body weight. Each group was administered the above-mentioned siRNA conjugates subcutaneously in the abdomen. The PBS control group received a dose of 5 ml / kg per mouse, while the siRNA conjugate experimental group received a dose of 3 mg / kg (as siRNA) per mouse in a 5 ml / kg volume. The day of administration was designated as day 0 (D0). Five mice from each group were sacrificed on day 7 (D7) and day 21 (D21) after administration. The animals were dissected, and liver tissues were collected for RNA extraction, reverse transcription, and real-time PCR analysis. Relative quantification of target gene mRNA in each test group was performed using the aforementioned ΔΔCt method.

The difference between the NM036 group and the NM023 group lies in the position of the methyl group in the open-ring structure, and the difference between the NM037 group and the NM022 group lies in the position of the methyl group in the open-ring structure. The NM036 group and the NM037 group are isomers of each other.
[0724] 6-8 week old C57BL / 6j mice were randomly divided into 7 groups according to body weight, with 10 mice in each group. Each group of mice was given the above siRNA conjugate by subcutaneous administration in the abdomen, wherein each mouse in the PBS control group was given a dose of 5 ml / kg, and each mouse in the siRNA conjugate experimental group was given a dose of 3 mg / kg (in terms of siRNA) in a volume of 5 ml / kg. The day of administration was recorded as D0, and 5 mice in each group were sacrificed on D7 and D28 after administration. The animals were subjected to gross anatomy, and liver tissue was collected and cut into several 2 mm 3 The small pieces were preserved in RNAlater. RNA extraction, reverse transcription reaction, and real-time PCR detection methods were as described above, and the relative quantification of target gene mRNA in each test group was calculated according to the aforementioned ΔΔCt method.

[0729] In this example, subcutaneous injection was used to evaluate the nature and extent of toxic reactions in ICR mice of the conjugates RZ597007, whose antisense chains contain the NM023 group, the conjugate RZ597112, whose antisense chains contain the NM022 group, the conjugate RZ597102, whose antisense chains contain the NM036 group, the conjugate RZ597103, whose antisense chains contain the NM037 group, the reference conjugate RZ597113, which contains the SNB group, and the reference conjugate RZ597002, which does not contain the alternative group.
[0730] 6-8 week old ICR mice were randomly divided into groups according to body weight, with 3 mice per group. Each test group was given the above-mentioned dose of drug conjugate and a PBS control group was added. The drug dose was calculated for all mice according to body weight and a single dose was administered by subcutaneous injection in the abdomen. Each drug conjugate was administered in the form of a 60 mg / ml (calculated as siRNA) PBS solution, and the administration volume was 10 ml / kg mouse body weight. That is, the dosage of each drug conjugate was 600 mg / kg mouse body weight (calculated as siRNA). The PBS control group was given the same volume of PBS solution (without drug conjugate) and observed for 7 days. The day of administration was recorded as day 0 (denoted as D0). Clinical observation was performed at least once a day after the first administration during the trial; blood was collected from all animals on the 7th day of the trial (denoted as D7) (mice were fasted for at least 12 hours before sampling and testing, and water was not forbidden) for blood biochemical tests. Blood samples (without anticoagulation) were collected and placed at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes. After the blood coagulated, it was centrifuged at 2000 g for 10 minutes at 4°C. Blood biochemistry analysis was performed using a fully automatic biochemical analyzer (Mindray BS-430). The change rate of each serum biochemical index was calculated as follows: Change rate = (experimental group - blank control group (PBS)) / blank control group.
[0731] Figures 3 and 4 are scatter plots of ALT and AST concentrations in mouse serum following administration of 600 mg / kg of RZ597007, RZ597112, RZ597102, RZ597103, and the reference conjugates RZ597002 and RZ597113, respectively, along with a blank control group (PBS). As shown in Figures 3 and 4, compared to the blank control group, administration of the conjugate RZ597002, which does not contain a substituted group, increased ALT levels in mouse serum from 18.10 U / L in the blank control group to 450.10 U / L, a 23.9-fold increase. AST levels also increased significantly, from 62.60 U / L to 478.90 U / L, a 6.7-fold increase, indicating significant hepatotoxicity.
[0732] After administration of the siRNA conjugate of this example, the serum ALT and AST concentrations decreased to varying degrees, indicating that the siRNA conjugate of this example has a certain effect of reducing hepatotoxicity. Specifically, after administration of the conjugate containing the NM023 group (RZ597007), the serum ALT concentration of mice decreased to 34.30 U / L, causing the ALT change rate of the conjugate to decrease from 23.9 times (RZ597002) to 0.9 times, and the AST concentration decreased to 74.40 U / L, causing the AST change rate of the conjugate to decrease from 6.7 times (RZ597002) to 0.2 times, which was basically the same as that of the PBS group; after administration of the conjugate containing NM036 (RZ597102), the serum ALT change rate of mice was 1.9 times, and the AST change rate was 0.1 times; after administration of the conjugate containing NM037 (RZ597103), the serum ALT change rate of mice was 2.2 times, and the AST change rate was 0.5 times; these two groups also did not show a significant increase in ALT and AST levels; the NM023 group, NM036 group, and NM037 group have a significant effect in reducing hepatotoxicity.
[0733] After administration of the conjugate containing the NM022 group (RZ597112), the change rate of ALT in the mouse serum was 5.5 times, and the change rate of AST was 0.7 times; compared with the control conjugate (RZ597002) of 23.9 times (ALT) and 6.7 times (AST), it still showed a certain effect of reducing liver toxicity.
[0734] The reference conjugate RZ597113 containing the SNB group showed an 11.1-fold and 5.2-fold change in mouse serum ALT and AST, respectively. Although it showed a certain reduction in hepatotoxicity compared with the control conjugate (RZ597002), it still showed a greater degree of hepatotoxicity compared with the other siRNA conjugates in this example.
[0735] Table 11: Blood biochemical test results of mice after administration of the siRNA conjugate described in Example 3
[0736] All animals were dissected on the seventh day of the experiment (designated D7). Mice were fasted for at least 12 hours prior to dissection and anesthetized using a Reward R540IE small animal anesthesia machine. After blood collection, animals were euthanized by exsanguination of the abdominal aorta. Gross anatomical observations were performed. The livers of all animals were preserved in 4% cell fixative and histopathologically examined (stained with hematoxylin and eosin). The severity of hepatocyte degeneration in pathological sections was evaluated and graded using a four-level grading system (reference document: [US] Peter. Mann et al. International Standards for Terminology and Diagnostic Criteria for Pathological Changes in Rats and Mice (INHAND) [M]. Translated by Yang Lifeng, Zhou Xiangmei, and Zhao Deming. Beijing: China Agriculture Press, 2019). Comparisons were made.
[0737] As shown in the pathological section results of Figures 5 and 6, compared with the blank control, among the three mice administered with the reference conjugate RZ597002, which does not contain any substituent groups, one mouse exhibited moderate to severe hepatocyte degeneration, specifically, a large number of hepatocytes with watery degeneration, severe cell swelling, loose and lightly stained cytoplasm (▲), irregular arrangement of hepatocytes, frequent hepatocyte necrosis, nuclear dissolution (arrows), connective tissue hyperplasia (*) around a large number of veins and hepatic sinusoids, disordered hepatic lobule structure, accompanied by scattered lymphocyte infiltration (#); one mouse exhibited mild to moderate hepatocyte degeneration, a large number of hepatocytes with swelling, loose and lightly stained cytoplasm, punctate necrosis of hepatocytes and a small amount of granulocyte and lymphocyte infiltration; one mouse exhibited mild hepatocyte degeneration, with some hepatocytes undergoing watery degeneration and a small amount of hepatocyte necrosis. In summary, the hepatocyte degeneration was more severe than that of the blank control group. Among the three mice treated with the reference conjugate RZ597113 containing the SNB group, two showed mild to mild hepatocellular degeneration, specifically manifested by a small amount of watery hepatocellular degeneration, some punctate necrosis of hepatocellular cells and punctate lymphocytic infiltration, and one had mild hepatocellular degeneration, manifested by some mild swelling of hepatocellular cells and loose and lightly stained cytoplasm.
[0738] After administration of conjugates containing the substituted groups NM023 (RZ597007), NM022 (RZ597112), NM036 (RZ597102), and NM037 (RZ597103), various indicators of hepatocyte degeneration in pathological sections were attenuated, especially the level of hepatocyte necrosis, where each siRNA conjugate showed a lower rating than the reference conjugates RZ597113 and RZ597002 ( Figures 5 and 6 ). Specifically, the two groups of mice given the conjugate containing the NM022 group (RZ597112) and the conjugate containing the NM036 group (RZ597102) showed mild hepatocellular degeneration. In both groups, only one mouse showed a small amount of punctate hepatocellular necrosis, slight lymphocyte infiltration, and a small amount of hepatocellular hydropic degeneration. The other two mice showed only mild hepatocellular hydropic degeneration and no hepatocellular necrosis. Among the three mice given the conjugate containing the NM023 group (RZ597007), two showed mild to mild hepatocellular degeneration. The 3 mice in the group treated with the conjugate containing the NM037 group (RZ597103) showed mild to mild hepatocyte degeneration, specifically partial hepatocyte swelling, one of which was accompanied by a small amount of punctate hepatocyte necrosis; and one mouse in the blank control group also showed very little punctate hepatocyte necrosis, partial inflammatory cell infiltration and hydropic degeneration. It was assessed that the cause of the mild hepatocyte degeneration was the animal's own cell metabolism.
[0739] In summary, compared to the conjugate RZ597002, which does not contain a substituted group, and the reference conjugate RZ597113, the siRNA conjugates disclosed herein can, to a certain extent, reduce hepatotoxic reactions caused by off-target effects and exhibit higher safety. Specifically, the conjugate RZ597102, which contains the NM036 group, exhibits improved safety while maintaining superior inhibitory activity.
[0740] Method for evaluating the inhibitory activity of siRNA conjugates on target genes in cells in vitro
[0741] Plasmid construction: siRNA seed region on-target / off-target sequences were designed and inserted into the multiple cloning sites downstream of the hRluc gene in the psi-CHECK2 plasmid to construct the antisense chain on-target plasmid (ASC) and off-target plasmid (ASM).
[0742] Cell culture and transfection: DMEM complete medium was used to culture cells normally at 37°C and 5% CO2. 2When the cell culture flask density reaches 80-90%, discard the culture medium and rinse with 0.25% trypsin. After trypsin digestion, stop the digestion with culture medium, resuspend the cells, centrifuge at 800 rpm for 5 minutes, resuspend with fresh culture medium and count, dilute the cell density to 8 × 10 3 cells / well, inoculated into 96-well cell plates, 100 μL / well, cultured for 24 h before transfection.
[0743] Preparation of siRNA serial dilutions: Prepare each conjugate to a 20 μM stock solution (based on siRNA) in PBS. Then, serially dilute the stock solution with PBS to working concentrations of 4000 nM, 1000 nM, 250 nM, 62.5 nM, 15.625 nM, 3.906 nM, 0.9766 nM, 0.2441 nM, and 0.06104 nM, respectively. Preparation of the transfection mixture: Add 0.2 μL of Lipo2000 to 9.8 μL of Opti-MEM per well to make a 10 μL Lipo2000 mixture. Incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. Add 10 ng of ASC / ASM plasmid to each well. Add 0.05 μL of a 200 ng / μL stock solution to 8.95 μL of Opti-MEM to create a 9 μL plasmid mixture. Mix 1 μL of siRNA working solution, 9 μL of the plasmid mixture, and 10 μL of Lipo2000 to create a transfection mixture. Simultaneously, set up a 0 nM transfection control well by mixing 1 μL of PBS, 9 μL of the plasmid mixture, and 10 μL of Lipo2000 to create a 20 μL control transfection mixture (control 1). Mix thoroughly by pipetting and incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes before performing subsequent transfections.
[0744] Aspirate the complete medium from the culture wells and replace each well with 80 μL of Opti-MEM medium. Add 20 μL of the transfection mixture. Set up three replicates for each conjugate concentration. Incubate in a 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator for 4 hours. Add 100 μL of DMEM medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum to each well. Incubate the plate in a 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator for an additional 24 hours.
[0745] Detection and analysis: Aspirate the culture medium in the 96-well plate, add 150 μL Firfly reaction solution to each well (prepared at a 1:1 ratio per well, i.e., 75 μL Firfly substrate and 75 μL DMEM / (well)), shake in a shaker in the dark for 10 minutes, pipette 120 μL of reaction solution to the detection plate, read the plate on a microplate reader, and obtain the Firfly value; then add 60 μL stop solution (prepared at a 1:100 ratio per well, i.e., 1 μL Renilla substrate and 100 μL Buffer / (well) (prepared immediately for use)) to the detection plate, shake in a shaker in the dark for 10 minutes, read the plate on a microplate reader, and obtain the Renilla value; and calculate the normalized ratio: Ratio = Renilla / Firfly.
[0746] Calculation of residual inhibition rate: [1-Mean(Ratio siRNA缀合物 / Ratio control )]*100%=inhibited activity (%); where Ratio control is the average value of Ratio of three replicate wells in the control well (without siRNA conjugate); Ratio siRNA缀合物 Represents the mean value of Ratio of three replicate wells in the test well (containing siRNA conjugate); inhibited activity represents the residual inhibition rate; Mean (Ratio siRNA / Ratio control ) refers to 3 replicate wells (Ratio siRNA缀合物 / Ratio control )*100% mean.
[0747] IC50 curve fitting was performed using the four-parameter log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters) model in GraphPad Prism 8.0. The IC50 concentration was calculated using the formula X = 10^(LogIC50 - Log((Top-Bottom) / (50-Bottom) - 1) / HillSlope). The parameters in this formula can be found in the GraphPad Prism 8.0 analysis results table.
[0748] IC60 curve fitting was performed using the four-parameter log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters) model in GraphPad Prism 8.0. The IC60 concentration was calculated using the formula X = 10^(LogIC50 - Log((Top-Bottom) / (60-Bottom) - 1) / HillSlope). The parameters in this formula can be found in the GraphPad Prism 8.0 analysis results table.
[0749] IC⁷⁵ curve fitting was performed using the four-parameter log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters) model in GraphPad Prism 8.0. The IC⁷⁵ concentration was calculated using the formula X = 10^(LogIC⁷⁵ - Log((Top-Bottom) / (IC⁷⁵ - Bottom) - 1) / HillSlope). The parameters in this formula can be found in the GraphPad Prism 8.0 analysis results table.
[0750] Example 4 Evaluation of the inhibitory activity of siRNA conjugates against the target gene angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) in HEK293T cells
[0751] This example uses an in vitro cell-based method to evaluate the inhibitory activity of siRNA conjugates RZ597007, RZ597112, RZ597102, RZ597103, RZ597103, RZ597113, and RZ597002, containing no substituted groups, against the target gene ANGPTL3 in HEK293T cells. The NM022 and NM023 groups are isomers of each other; the NM036 and NM037 groups are isomers of each other; and the difference between the NM036 and NM023 groups lies in the position of the methyl groups in the open ring structure.
[0752] According to the above-mentioned in vitro cell target gene inhibitory activity evaluation method, on-target and off-target tests of siRNA conjugates were performed respectively, and the IC50 value of the on-target test and the IC75 value of the off-target test were calculated.
[0753] The results of Example 4 show that in the target (ASC) evaluation, the IC50 values of the siRNA conjugates RZ597007, RZ597112, RZ597102, and RZ597103 were 0.0832 nM, 0.0695 nM, 0.0655 nM, and 0.0611 nM, respectively, which were superior to the reference conjugate RZ597002 (0.1345 nM) that did not contain the substituted group; and were basically equivalent to the reference conjugate RZ597113 (0.0535 nM) that contained the SNB group. ; However, the IC75 value calculation in the off-target (ASM) activity assessment found that RZ597007 and RZ597102 had basically no off-target activity; compared with RZ597002 (16.3539nM) and RZ597113 (9.0746nM), the IC75 value of RZ597112 was 16.1609nM, which was superior to RZ597113 in reducing off-target activity; the IC75 value of RZ597103 was 37.6409nM, which showed a certain anti-off-target trend (Figure 7-18, Table 12).

[0755] Example 5 Evaluation of the inhibitory activity of siRNA conjugates against the target gene ANGPTL3 in HEK293T cells
[0756] In this example, the inhibitory activity of the target gene in vitro in cells was evaluated using a method for evaluating the inhibitory activity of the target gene ANGPTL3 in HEK293T cells using conjugates RZ597157 containing an NM102 group at position 5 of the antisense strand of the ANGPTL3 target site, conjugate RZ597161 containing an NM103 group at position 7 of the antisense strand, and a reference conjugate RZ597136 that does not contain any alternative groups.
[0757] The on-target and off-target assays of the siRNA conjugates were performed according to the above-mentioned in vitro cell target gene inhibitory activity evaluation method, and the IC50 and IC60 values of the on-target and off-target assays were calculated.
[0758] The results of Example 5 show that the IC50 values of the on-target (ASC) activity assessments for the siRNA conjugates RZ597157 and RZ597161 were 0.0559 nM and 0.0455 nM, respectively, which are essentially comparable to the reference conjugate RZ597136 (0.0313 nM). No IC60 values were fitted for the off-target (ASM) activity assessments for RZ597157 and RZ597161, while the reference conjugate RZ597136 had an IC60 value of 9.5713 nM, indicating that RZ597157 and RZ597161 have a certain tendency to prevent off-target effects (Figures 19-24, Table 13).
