Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2020110207210, filed on September 25, 2020, and Chinese patent application No. 2021110954656, filed on September 17, 2021. This application cites the above-mentioned Chinese patent applications in their entirety.

[0002] [Technical field] The present invention relates to pyrimidine formamide compounds and their uses. [Background technology] Vanin-1 (vascular anti-inflammatory molecule-1) is an exonuclease with ubiquitinase activity that mainly catalyzes the hydrolysis of pantetheine to produce pantothenic acid (VB5) and mercaptoethylamine. Coenzyme A (CoA) synthesized by VB5 regulates biotransformations such as fatty acid synthesis and oxidation, and energy metabolism, and the reversible reaction between mercaptoethylamine and cystamine is an important sensor of oxidative stress. More and more studies have shown that deficiency or reduced levels of mercaptoethylamine can enhance γ-GCS activity, leading to increased endogenous GSH storage in tissues, which can prevent or eliminate tissue inflammation. Studies have found that Vanin-1 mRNA is highly expressed in human colon, duodenum, endometrium, liver, kidney, gallbladder, and small intestine. In UC (ulcerative colitis) patients, Vanin-1 expression is high, diffuse, and limited to the brush border. Furthermore, the expression level of Vanin-1 in the colon remained significantly higher than that of the control group during the clinical quiescent phase of UC. - / - The survival rate of Vanin-1 mice treated with 90% cystamine was significantly higher than that of the model control group, and there was no significant weight loss. - / -The mice died within 5 days, indicating that cystamine completely reversed the protective effect of Vanin-1 deficiency against colitis. Histopathological analysis of mice also showed that inhibition or knockout of Vanin-1 could significantly ameliorate the lesions in mouse colon (Berruyer C,et al., Vanin-1- / -mice exhibit a glutathione mediated tissue resistance to oxidative stress. Mol. Cell Biol. 2004;24: 7214-7224;Berruyer C,et al. Vanin-1 licenses inflammatory mediator production by gut epithelial cells and controls colitis by antagonizing peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγactivity. J. Exp. Med. 2006;203: 2817-2827).

[0003] Furthermore, Vanin-1 is believed to play a regulatory role in cardiovascular and oncological diseases. Studies have demonstrated that Vanin-1 regulates smooth muscle cell activation in vitro and the development of neointimal hyperplasia in response to carotid artery ligation in vivo. Polymorphisms in the VNN1 gene are associated with blood pressure and HDL levels. In SF-1 transgenic mice, Vanin-1 deficiency prevents the mice from developing adrenal cortical tumors, indicating a role for Vanin-1 in certain cancers. Studies in inflammatory diseases have shown that Vanin-1 is highly upregulated in psoriatic skin lesions compared to normal individuals. Gene expression of VNN1 is also upregulated in whole blood of pediatric immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) patients, where overexpression of VNN1 is associated with the progression of chronic ITP. Furthermore, elevated Vanin-1 has been detected in the urine of patients with various renal disorders, including systemic lupus erythematosus, nephrotoxicant-induced renal injury, and type 2 diabetes (Rommelaere S, et al. PPARalpha regulates the production of serum Vanin-1 by liver. FEBS Lett.2013 Nov 15;587(22):3742-8).
