Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel low-molecular organic compound of the 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid type, and further to a Pin1 inhibitor, a pharmaceutical composition, a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for inflammatory diseases including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), inflammatory bowel disease, and pulmonary fibrosis, a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for fatty liver disease, and a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for obesity using the compound. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for viral diseases that infect humans using the compound, for example, coronavirus infection, particularly coronavirus infection caused by beta coronavirus, especially coronavirus infection (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Background Art

[0002] Pin1 is a kind of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) that catalyzes the cis / trans conformational change of proline in proteins, and has the characteristic of specifically acting on proline located next to phosphorylated serine or threonine to change the conformational structure. Therefore, Pin1 is a molecule that links protein phosphorylation to protein structural changes and is considered to play an important role in intracellular signal transduction. Regarding Pin1, it has been reported that Pin1 inhibitors suppress the growth of cancer cells (Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). In addition, the present inventors have previously reported that Pin1, a kind of cis-trans isomerase, binds to IRS-1, which plays a central role in insulin signaling, and enhances its signal transduction (Non-Patent Document 3).

[0003] As compounds that inhibit Pin1, phenylalaninol phosphate derivatives, indole or benzimidazole alanine derivatives, fredericamycin A compounds, phenylimidazole derivatives, naphthyl-substituted amino acid derivatives, glutamic acid or aspartic acid derivatives, etc. have been reported (Patent Documents 1 to 4 and Non-Patent Documents 1, 2, and 4).

[0004] The present inventors previously found that Pin1 knockout mice are resistant to the development of NASH and obesity caused by a high-fat diet (Non-Patent Document 5). And when the present inventors administered the compound Juglone having Pin1 inhibitory activity with the following structure to mice induced with NASH, they found that the development of NASH was improved (Non-Patent Documents 6 and 7).

[0005]

Chemical formula

[0006] In addition, when the present inventors orally administered a known Pin1 inhibitor to mice induced with colonic inflammation, they found that the development of colonic inflammation was suppressed (Non-Patent Document 8).

[0007] Furthermore, the present inventors developed novel ester compounds, amide compounds, and anthranilic acid compounds that can be Pin1 inhibitors, and found that these compounds can be used as therapeutic or prophylactic agents for inflammatory diseases including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and inflammatory bowel disease, therapeutic or prophylactic agents for fatty liver diseases, therapeutic or prophylactic agents for obesity, and therapeutic or prophylactic agents for cancer (Patent Documents 5 to 8).

[0008] By the way, the coronavirus is a virus that infects not only humans but also animals and causes various diseases. In addition to domestic animals such as dogs, cats, cows, pigs, chickens, horses, alpacas, and camels, coronaviruses (animal coronaviruses) specific to each animal have been detected from dolphins, giraffes, ferrets, skunks, bats, and sparrows. The species specificity of coronaviruses is high, and it rarely infects other animals across species barriers. Coronaviruses that infect humans are known as four types of coronaviruses that infect humans daily (Human Coronavirus: HCoV), namely HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63, and HCoV-HKU1, and two types of severe pneumonia viruses that infect from animals, namely Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV).

[0009] Around December 2019, the infection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was confirmed as a novel coronavirus, and it spread around the world in an instant, becoming a global pandemic, and there is still no sign of its end. The infectious disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 mainly spreads through human-to-human infection via droplets in the air scattered by the coughs and sneezes of infected individuals. COVID-19 shows symptoms such as fever, respiratory symptoms, headache, and fatigue, and may also cause olfactory and gustatory disorders. In particular, the fatality rate of COVID-19 is high among the elderly and patients with underlying diseases (cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases, chronic kidney diseases, hypertension, obesity). Under such circumstances, effective therapeutic and preventive drugs for COVID-19 are strongly desired. The novel coronavirus is a type of RNA virus (single-stranded RNA virus) that has RNA as its genetic information and has a double membrane made of lipids called an "envelope" on the outermost layer of the particle. It is spherical with a diameter of about 100 nm, has protrusions on its surface, and its morphology resembles a crown. The novel coronavirus cannot multiply on its own but attaches to and enters cells such as human mucous membranes to proliferate. Virologically, it is classified into the order Nidovirales, subfamily Coronavirinae, and family Coronaviridae, and is classified into four groups, α, β, γ, and δ, based on genetic characteristics. HCoV-229E and HCoV-NL63 are classified as α-coronaviruses, and MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2, HCoV-OC43, and HCoV-HKU1 are classified as β-coronaviruses.

Example

[0265] (Evaluation of the activity of inhibiting Pin1) To evaluate the activity of the compound synthesized in Example 1 to inhibit the function of Pin1, the degree of phosphorylation of AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase), which has been shown to be suppressed from phosphorylation by Pin1, was used as an index according to the method previously developed by the present inventors (Yusuke Nakatsu et al., Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2015, Vol.290, No.40, pp.24255 - 24266), and an assay using cells was performed. Briefly, 293T cells were seeded on a collagen-coated 24-well plate. After 48 hours, each compound (50 μM) synthesized in the example was added and left standing in an incubator for 30 minutes. Then, 10 mM 2-DG was added, and after 1 hour, the samples were collected with a buffer containing mercaptoethanol and SDS. ​ According to the conventional method, after performing SDS-PAGE and blotting, blocking was carried out with 3% BSA for 1 hour. Then, pAMPK antibody (Cell signaling 1:2000, diluted with Can get signal solution1: Toyobo) was used as the primary antibody, and HRP-linked anti-rabbit IgG (GE healthcare 1:4000, diluted with Can get signal solution2: Toyobo) was used as the secondary antibody, and they were each reacted at room temperature for 1 hour and detected. The activity of inhibiting the function of Pin1 was evaluated as follows by comparing with the degree of inhibition by C1 ((R)-2-(5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylfuran-3-carboxamido)-3-(naphthalene-6-yl)propanoic acid), a known Pin1 inhibitor. (+++): Promotes phosphorylation of AMPK more strongly than C1. (++): Promotes phosphorylation of AMPK to the same extent as C1. (+): Promotes phosphorylation of AMPK, but is weaker than C1. (-): Almost no promotion of AMPK phosphorylation is observed.

[0266] As a method for measuring the activity of inhibiting the function of Pin1, since there is also an assay for measuring peptidylprolyl isomerase activity without using cells (cell-free), for some of the compounds synthesized in Example 1, a cell-free assay was performed based on the method of Janowski et al. (Analytical Biochemistry, 1997, Vol. 252, Issue 2, pp. 299-307). Briefly described, the assay buffer (containing 35 mM HEPES pH 7.8, 50 μM DTT and 0.0025% NP40) was equilibrated to 10 degrees in a quartz cell equipped with a stirring function. A compound (10 μM) dissolved in DMSO was added to this solution, and the UV spectrum in this state was measured. Then Pin1 (final concentration 5 nM) was added. The reaction was initiated by adding a substrate peptide (Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA) (final concentration 60 μM) dissolved in a solution of 0.5 M LiCl in trifluoroethanol. The change in absorbance at 330 nm after the start of the reaction was measured for 5 minutes. The reaction curve was fitted to a first-order decay model to calculate the reaction rate. The background rate was subtracted to obtain the catalytic reaction rate. The inhibition rate (%) was calculated from the catalytic reaction rates with and without the compound. The higher the inhibition rate, the higher the activity of inhibiting the function of Pin1.

[0267] Regarding the activity of inhibiting the function of Pin1, the results of cell-based assays and cell-free assays are tabulated as follows.

Example

[0282] (NASH Treatment Experiment) (Example 3-1) To test the therapeutic effect of the compound of the present invention on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an animal experiment was conducted using NASH model mice. NASH model mice (hereinafter referred to as "NASH mice") were prepared by feeding 8-week-old male individuals of mice for animal experiments with a high-fat, high-cholesterol, palm oil-containing diet (HFD) for 8 weeks. During the 8-week HFD intake period, an animal experiment was conducted by dividing the mice into two groups: a group orally administered with the compound (H-686) of the present invention at 5 mg / Kg / day three times a week, and a group not administered with anything. In addition, to serve as control mice, 8-week-old male individuals of mice for animal experiments were fed a normal diet for 8 weeks. The results of measuring the body weights and liver weights of these mice are shown in FIGS. 1(A) and 1(B), respectively. The results of measuring the blood AST (GOT) concentration and blood ALT (GPT) concentration are shown in FIGS. 2(A) and 2(B), respectively. And the results of measuring the mRNA expression levels of Col1a1 (type I collagen α1 chain) and Col1a2 (type I collagen α2 chain) are shown in FIGS. 3(A) and 3(B), respectively.

[0283] FIG. 1(A) is a graph showing the results of measuring the body weights of mice. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. FIG. 1(B) is a graph showing the results of measuring the liver weights of mice. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. As shown in Fig. 1(A), in the mice fed with HFD, the body weight increased, but when H-686 was administered, the increase in body weight was suppressed. Also, regarding the liver weight, as shown in Fig. 1(B), in the mice fed with HFD, fat accumulated in the liver and the liver weight increased, but when H-686 was administered, the increase in liver weight was significantly suppressed.

[0284] Fig. 2(A) is a graph showing the results of measuring the concentration (IU / ml) of AST (GOT) in the blood. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. Fig. 2(B) is a graph showing the results of measuring the concentration (IU / ml) of ALT (GPT) in the blood. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. As shown in Fig. 2(A), in the mice fed with HFD, the numerical value of AST indicating liver inflammation increased, but when H-686 was administered, the numerical value of AST decreased and suppression of liver inflammation was observed. Also, regarding ALT, as shown in Fig. 2(B), in the mice fed with HFD, the numerical value of ALT indicating liver inflammation increased, but when H-686 was administered, the numerical value of ALT decreased and suppression of liver inflammation was observed.

[0285] Fig. 3(A) is a graph showing the results of measuring the expression level of Col1a1 (type I collagen α1 chain) mRNA. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. The measured values show the ratio when the expression level in the control is set to 1. Fig. 3(B) is a graph showing the results of measuring the expression level of Col1a2 (type I collagen α2 chain) mRNA. Each bar graph shows the measurement results of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686 from left to right. The measured values show the ratio when the expression level in the control is set to 1. As shown in Fig. 3(A), in mice fed with HFD, the expression level of Col1a1 (type I collagen α1 chain) involved in liver tissue fibrosis increased, but when H-686 was administered, the expression level of Col1a1 was suppressed. Also, for Col1a2 (type I collagen α2 chain), as shown in Fig. 3(B), the expression level increased in mice fed with HFD, but when H-686 was administered, suppression of the expression level was observed.

[0286] (Example 3-2) Next, Fig. 4 shows the results of microscopic observation of liver tissue sections of control mice, mice fed with HFD, and mice fed with HFD and H-686. Fig. 4(A) is a photograph showing the observation result of the liver tissue of control mice, Fig. 4(B) is a photograph showing the observation result of the liver tissue of mice fed with HFD, and Fig. 4(C) is a photograph showing the observation result of the liver tissue of mice fed with HFD and H-686. As shown in Fig. 4(A), no fat accumulation was observed in the liver tissue of control mice, but as shown in Figs. 4(B) and (C), fat accumulation was observed in the liver tissue of mice fed with HFD. And, as is clear from the comparison between Figs. 4(B) and 4(C), even in mice fed with HFD, fat accumulation was suppressed by administering H-686.

In the confirmation test, a Pin1 inhibitor was added to VeroE6 / TMPRSS2 cells at a final concentration of 20 μM. After 2 hours, the cells were infected with SARS-CoV-2 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10. After 8 hours of infection, cell lysates were collected, and intracellular SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid, Pin1, and actin as an internal standard protein were detected by Western blotting. The inhibition rate was calculated as the ratio of the band area when the Pin1 inhibitor was added, with the band area in the same system without the addition of the Pin1 inhibitor set as 0% inhibition rate. When the band area was 0 (when no band was observed), the inhibition rate was 100%.

Table 15

[0289] Furthermore, for the Pin1 inhibitor H-688 (Example 4-4) with a high inhibition rate in Table 15, the inhibitory effect on SARS-CoV-2 proliferation was confirmed when the addition amounts were 5 μM and 10 μM. To VeroE6 / TMPRSS2 cells at 1×10 5 cells / well, a Pin1 inhibitor was added to a final concentration of 5 or 10 μM. After 2 hours, the cells were infected with SARS-CoV-2 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10. After 8 hours of infection, cell lysates were collected, and intracellular SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid and actin as an internal standard protein were detected by Western blotting. Figure 5 shows the results of adding the Pin1 inhibitor H-688.
