Abstract
Description
Indole spiro derivative and preparation method and application thereof TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of pharmaceutical compounds, and particularly relates to an indole spiro derivative, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in medicine. BACKGROUND
[0002] Growth Hormone (GH) is a single polypeptide chain protein hormone secreted by the acidophilic cells of the anterior pituitary, and mainly exists in two forms of relative molecular weight: 2.2 x 10 4 and 2.0 x 10 4 . The main form in serum is a large molecular weight GH monomer containing 191 amino acids in free form. The secretion of GH is regulated by various factors, among which growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) and ghrelin have a positive regulatory effect, while somatostatin (SST) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) have a negative regulatory effect. GH acts directly or indirectly on peripheral organs, and its core function is to promote the growth and development of the body, especially the proliferation of muscle and skin cells. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments have confirmed that ghrelin can significantly promote the secretion of GH, and this promoting effect is dose-dependent.
[0003] Growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) is a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor that is highly expressed in the anterior pituitary, islets, thyroid, heart and brain. It is currently believed that GHSR has two subtypes: GHSR1a and GHSR1b. Ghrelin, as an endogenous 28-amino-acid peptide, is the natural ligand of GHSR1a and is involved in the regulation of various physiological functions in the body.
[0004] Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) is an endocrine metabolic disease caused by insufficient secretion of GH from the anterior pituitary, and is mainly manifested as short stature. The occurrence of the disease may be related to congenital genetic variation, anterior pituitary disease, injury or surgical resection, etc. Persistent GHD without treatment can lead to complications such as metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases in adulthood, seriously affecting the quality of life and life span of patients. Therefore, early identification and timely treatment of GHD are crucial.
[0005] At present, a variety of compounds for stimulating the release of endogenous GH have been developed worldwide, such as growth hormone releasing factor (GRF) analogs and recombinant human GH. However, there is no oral small molecule growth hormone agonist on the market so far. SUMMARY
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide small molecule compounds that can effectively stimulate the release of natural or endogenous GH, which can be administered via parenteral, nasal, or oral routes, and are suitable for treating human patients with insufficient GH secretion or for increasing GH levels in food production animals, thereby increasing GH secretion in humans and animals.

[0314] The compound was prepared into working solutions of different concentrations by serially diluting it 3-fold with DMSO. 10 nL / well was added to 384-well plates (replicas, 11 concentration points, with a maximum final concentration of 1 μM). Cultured HEK293-GHSR-1α cells were dissociated at 37°C for 3 minutes with 0.05% trypsin-EDTA, and the process was terminated by adding fresh culture medium. Cells were resuspended and counted, centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was removed. Cells were resuspended in 1×stimulation buffer until a cell density of 2×10⁶ cells / well was reached. 6Cells / mL. Cells were added at a rate of 10 μL / well to a 384-well plate, sealed, and incubated at 37°C for 2 hours. After incubation, 5 μL / well of 1×IP-1 d2 reagent and then 5 μL / well of 1×anti-IP-1 antibody were added. The plate was sealed and incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes. After incubation, the cells were detected using a microplate reader. Data were analyzed using a ratio assay (665 nm / 615 nm), and activation curves were fitted using a four-parameter logistic curve. The activation activity of the compounds on GHSR is shown in Table 1.

[0320] Example B: Pharmacokinetic Characteristics of Compounds in Rats
[0321] Six- to eight-week-old male SD rats were housed in an SPF-barrier environment. Throughout the experiment, the temperature and relative humidity in the animal room were controlled at 23±2℃ and 50±10%, respectively, with a constant 12-hour light / dark cycle. All rats were acclimatized for 3 days before the start of the experiment. Rats were randomly divided into groups of three according to body weight. The gavage group was fasted overnight before administration and fed 4 hours after administration. The intravenous group had free access to food. A single administration of the compound (PO 3 mg / kg, IV 1 mg / kg, solvent: 5% DMSO + 95% (0.5% CMC-Na)) was administered. Plasma samples were collected at specific time points after administration, and the compound was detected using chromatography-tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a non-compartmental model analysis method. The experimental results are shown in Table 2.
[0322] Table 2. Drug metabolism data in rats Note: NA indicates that parameters cannot be calculated below the detection limit.
[0323] The above experimental data show that, in the drug metabolism experiment of rats administered the drug via gavage in Example 15 of this invention, C max Its AUC was significantly better than that of the positive control ibutamoren, indicating better drug-like properties.
