Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals, and specifically, to siRNA for inhibiting LPA gene expression, a composition containing the same, and the use thereof. Background Technology
[0002] LPA is the name of the gene encoding apolipoprotein(a), apo(a) which is primarily expressed in the liver and is limited to humans and non-primates. Apolipoprotein(a) is linked to apo(B)-100 via disulfide bonds and, together with a lipid core, forms lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) particles. Lp(a) particles are specialized macromolecules of cholesterol-rich lipoproteins, with cholesterol and phospholipids coated on their surfaces, and embedded within them are hydrophilic apolipoprotein components, namely apolipoprotein(a) and apo(B)-100. Lp(a) can penetrate and deposit within the inner walls of blood vessels, thereby promoting atherosclerosis. Lp(a) is structurally homologous to plasminogen (PLG) and can inhibit the hydrolysis of fibrinogen and promote thrombus formation by binding to fibrin sites in competition with plasminogen. Therefore, Lp(a) is closely associated with atherosclerosis and thrombus formation. According to studies, blood Lp(a) levels are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, stroke, and atherosclerotic stenosis.
[0003] Analysis of Lp(a) levels in several studies has shown that high Lp(a) levels are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, stroke, and other related conditions (including atherosclerotic stenosis). Additionally, through genome-wide association analysis, LPA has been identified as a genetic risk factor for conditions such as atherosclerotic stenosis.
[0004] Therefore, there is currently a need for methods to effectively treat and prevent the following diseases and related conditions, and to reduce the risk of developing the following diseases and related conditions: stroke, atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and cardiovascular diseases including coronary artery atherosclerosis and aortic valve stenosis, and other related conditions, pathologies, or syndromes that have not yet been identified. The present invention has addressed this unmet medical need. The problem to be solved
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide siRNA (referred to as LPA siRNA herein) for inhibiting the expression of an LPA gene, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The siRNA described herein is delivered to a cell expressing an LPA gene and subsequently inhibits and / or knocks down LPA expression in vitro and / or in vivo through the biological process of RNA interference (RNAi).
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a drug composition comprising the siRNA or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
[0007] Another objective of the present invention is to provide the use of the siRNA, its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or the drug composition in the prevention or treatment of diseases or pathologies associated with LPA expression. means of solving the problem
[0008] To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides siRNA or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the siRNA comprises a sense strand and an antisense strand, wherein the antisense strand comprises a sequence complementary to an LPA mRNA sequence, and the sequence of the antisense strand comprises the sequence of any one of the antisense strands in Table 1.

One or more modifications may be introduced within a single LPA siRNA or even within that single nucleotide. The sense strand and antisense strand of the LPA siRNA may be synthesized and / or modified through methods known in the art. In the present invention, the modification of one nucleotide is independent of the modification of another nucleotide. Modified nucleotides also include nucleotides having a modified nucleobase.
[0161] Locked nucleic acid (LNA) is a modified nucleotide in which a methylene bridge is inserted between the C4' and O2' of ribose.
[0162] Glycol nucleic acid (GNA) has a chiral acyclic 3-carbon main chain linked via phosphate and is the simplest phosphodiester-based nucleic acid analog.
[0163] The term “sequence” or “nucleotide sequence” refers to a series or a specific order of nucleobases, nucleotides, and / or nucleosides. Whether modified or not, they are described as a series of characters using standard nucleotide nomenclature and the symbol table for modified nucleotides described in the text.
[0164] The term "blunt end" refers to the end of a double-stranded siRNA in which the terminal nucleotides of the two annealed strands are complementary (forming complementary base pairs).
[0165] The term "frayed end" refers to the end of a double-stranded siRNA in which the terminal nucleotides of the two annealed strands form a pair (i.e., do not form an overhang) but are not complementary (i.e., form a non-complementary pair). In some embodiments, the sense strand 5' end and the antisense strand 3' end of the siRNA form a frayed end. In some embodiments, the sense strand 3' end and the antisense strand 5' end of the siRNA form a frayed end. In some embodiments, both ends of the siRNA form a frayed end. In some embodiments, neither end of the siRNA is a frayed end.
[0166] The term "overhang" refers to one or more unpaired nucleotide fragments located at one end of a double-stranded siRNA. Unpaired nucleotides may be on the sense strand or antisense strand to form a 3' or 5' overhang. In some embodiments, the siRNA comprises a smooth end and a phrased end, a smooth end and a 5' overhang end, a smooth end and a 3' overhang end, a phrased end and a 5' overhang end, a phrased end and a 3' overhang end, two 5' overhang ends, two 3' overhang ends, a 5' overhang end and a 3' overhang end, two phrased ends, or two smooth ends.
[0167] The term "extension" refers to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 nucleotides at the 5' and / or 3' ends of the sense strand core sequence and / or the antisense strand core sequence.

Conversely, the extended nucleotide on the antisense strand may or may not be complementary to the nucleotide (core sequence nucleotide or extended nucleotide) in the corresponding sense strand. In some embodiments, both the sense strand and the antisense strand of the siRNA comprise a 3' extension and a 5' extension. In some embodiments, the base of the 3' extension nucleotide of one strand is paired with the base of the 5' extension nucleotide of the other strand. In other embodiments, the bases of the 5' extended nucleotide of one strand are not paired with the bases of the 3' extended nucleotide of the other strand. In some embodiments, the LPA siRNA has a 3' extended antisense strand and a 5' extended sense strand.
[0168] The term “complementary” refers to the ability of a nucleotide containing the first nucleotide sequence to hybridize (form base pair hydrogen bonds) with a nucleotide containing the second nucleotide sequence under specific conditions to form a duplex or double helix structure when describing a first nucleotide sequence (e.g., siRNA antisense strand) to a second nucleotide sequence (e.g., siRNA sense strand or LPA mRNA). The complementary sequence may contain Watson-Crick base pairs or non-Watson-Crick base pairs, and may also contain natural or modified nucleotides or nucleotide mimics, provided that the requirement for the hybridization ability is satisfied.
[0169] The term "perfectly complementary" refers to the hybridization of all (100%) of the bases in the sequence of the first polynucleotide with the same number of bases in the sequence of the second polynucleotide.

[0172] The terms "complementary," "completely complementary," and "basically complementary" may be used in relation to base matching between the sense strand and antisense strand of siRNA or between the antisense strand of siRNA and the LPA mRNA sequence. Sequence identity or complementarity does not depend on modification. For the purpose of measuring identity or complementarity, for example, a and Af are complementary to U (or T) and identical to A.
[0173] The term "LPA" may refer to the LPA gene, LPA mRNA, or Lp(a) protein under appropriate circumstances.
[0174] The terms “silencing,” “reduction,” “inhibition,” “downregulation,” or “gene expression knockdown” in relation to the LPA gene refer to a reduction in gene expression (e.g., measured by the level of RNA transcribed from the gene or the level of a peptide, protein, or protein subunit translated from mRNA in the same cell, cell population, or tissue before administration of the LPA siRNA) when the cell, cell population, or tissue is treated with the LPA siRNA. In some embodiments, the LPA gene expression level and / or mRNA level of a subject administered the LPA siRNA is reduced by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 98% compared to a subject before administration of LPA siRNA or a subject not administered LPA siRNA. The gene expression level and / or mRNA level of the subject may be reduced in the subject's cells, cell populations, and / or tissues. In some embodiments, the LPA protein levels of subjects administered the LPA siRNA are reduced by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 98% compared to subjects prior to LPA siRNA administration or subjects not administered LPA siRNA. The protein levels of the subjects may be reduced in the subjects' cells, cell populations, tissues, blood, and / or other body fluids. A reduction in gene expression, mRNA, or protein levels may be evaluated by any method known in the art. A reduction or decrease in LPA mRNA levels and / or protein levels is collectively referred to herein as a reduction or decrease in LPA, or a suppression or reduction of LPA expression.
[0175] The term “targeting group” includes, but is not limited to, compounds having an affinity for cell surface molecules, cell receptor ligands, haptens, antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments, and antibody mimics having an affinity for cell surface molecules.

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0192] The present invention will be explained in more detail below through examples.
[0193] Example 1: Design and Synthesis of LPA siRNA
[0194] For the lipoprotein gene (transcript information: NM005577.4), the present invention designed a small interfering RNA (siRNA) as shown in Table 1. Here, the transcript information of the corresponding protein gene is listed in the NCBI database. The names in Table 1 represent the siRNA sequences targeting LPA mRNA and the sequences of their sense strands and antisense strands. Based on Table 1, Table 2 represents the siRNA and its sense strands and antisense strands with two dTs added to the 3' end of the sense strand and antisense strand. Subsequently, the present invention modified the above sequences, and the modified siRNA, its sense strand, and antisense strands are listed in Table 3. The modified siRNA, its sense strand, and antisense strands having a targeting group are listed in Table 4. The siRNA and its sense strand and antisense strand disclosed in the prior art are also listed in Table 4.
[0195] The LPA siRNA formulation of the present invention can be synthesized by adopting the conventional solid-phase phosphoramid technique shown in Fig. 1, and all reagents are commercially available. Briefly, the DMT protecting group is first removed using TCA, followed by washing with ACN, coupling, capping, oxidation / sulfurization, and ACN washing, and then cyclic coupling is performed. After synthesizing the target sequence, aminolysis is performed; the aminolysis conditions involve aminolysis using ammonia water at 40°C for 16 hours, followed by centrifugation and drying. Subsequently, the product is obtained through desalination or HPLC purification. For UPLC / TOF-MS detection and UV quantitative concentration measurement, 196 μL of water is added to 4 μL of the sample and placed in a UV plate. The concentration is measured using a microplate reader, and the nmol concentration is calculated. Annealing: Antisense strand:Sense strand = 1.05:1 molar ratio is mixed and annealed, then dispensed into 2.5 nmol x 2 (suitable centrifuge tubes), freeze-dried per tube to ensure a small solution volume, and sealed with aluminum foil during the freeze-drying period to obtain the final siRNA.
[0196] Example 2: Detection of LPA expression levels
[0197] The expression level of LPA was evaluated through a dual luciferase reporter gene experiment. First, to construct the psiCHECK2-LPA dual luciferase reporter gene plasmid, the full-length LPA sequence was inserted into the psiCHECK2-LPA vector. The LPA sequence was derived from Origene, and the psiCHECK2 vector from Promega. HUH7 cells were selected as the primary experimental material, seeded into 96-well plates, and incubated in a 37°C incubator for 2 hours to allow the cells to adhere to the walls. Subsequently, the LPA dual reporter gene plasmid was transduced into HUH7 cells using Fugene HD, and 5% CO₂ The cells were cultured overnight in a 37°C incubator. After culturing the cells for 16 hours, LPA-siRNA was transduced into HUH7 cells using RNAiMAX, and the cells were cultured for 24 hours. RNAiMAX is derived from Invitrogen. HUH7 cells were cultured under 5% CO2. After incubating for 24 hours in a 37°C incubator, the expression of Firefly luciferase and Renilla luciferase was measured using the Dual-Glo luciferase Assay System. The formulas for calculating the absolute and relative inhibition rates of LPA are as follows. Here, the sample refers to the group added with the target 0.3 nM siRNA, the internal control refers to the group without siRNA, and the control refers to the group added with 0.3 nM control siRNA.
[0198] LPA inhibition rate (%) = { 1 - [(average value of sample's Renilla lum. - background Renilla lum.) / (average value of sample's Firefly lum. - background Firefly lum.)] / [(average value of internal reference's Renilla lum. - background Renilla lum.) / (average value of internal reference's Firefly lum. - background Firefly lum.)]} Х 100%. At this time, the LPA inhibition rate of the control siRNA was 60.38%.
[0199] LPA Relative Inhibition Rate (%) = (LPA Inhibition Rate of Sample / LPA Inhibition Rate of Control) Х 100%.
[0200]
[0201] The results are as shown in Table 5.

[0203] Example 3: In vitro experiment of LPA RNAi preparations
[0204] The expression level of LPA was evaluated using a dual luciferase reporter gene assay. First, the psiCHECK2-LPA dual luciferase reporter gene plasmid was constructed, and the full-length human LPA sequence was inserted into the psiCHECK2 vector. The LPA sequence was derived from Origene, and the psiCHECK2 vector from Promega. 10,000 Hep3B cells were seeded into each well of a 96-well plate and incubated overnight in a 37°C incubator to allow the cells to adhere to the walls. The LPA reporter gene plasmid was transduced into the cells using 0.2 μL of FUGENEHD (Promega, E2311) per well. After incubating the cells for 6 hours, siRNA was transduced into the cells using 0.2 μL of LipoFectamine 2000 (Thermo, 11668-019) per well, and 5% CO₂ , cultured in a 37°C incubator for 24 hours. The expression levels of LPA were confirmed by measuring the expression of Firefly luciferase and Renilla luciferase using the Dual-Glo Luciferase Assay System (Promega E29440).
[0205] LPA inhibition rate (%) = {1 - [(Mean value of sample Renilla lum. - Background Renilla lum.) / (Mean value of sample Firefly lum. - Background Firefly lum.)] / [(Mean value of internal reference Renilla lum. - Background Renilla lum.) / (Mean value of internal reference Firefly lum. - Background Firefly lum.)]} × 100%.

[0213] Example 6: In vivo testing of the efficacy of LPA RNAi preparations using cynomolgus monkeys
[0214] To evaluate the in vivo activity of the target siRNA in large animals, this experiment used male cynomolgus monkeys (4–7 years of age, body weight 3–6 kg) to assess the in vivo activity of the target molecules. The cynomolgus monkeys were housed in an animal enclosure, and environmental conditions were maintained at a temperature of 18–26°C and a relative humidity of 40–70%. JAB-190024-1, JAB-190024-2, and JAB-190024-6 were subcutaneously injected into the cynomolgus monkeys at a dose of 1 mg / kg. Serum was collected before administration and on days 7, 14, and 21 after administration. 0.5 mL of the collected serum was dispensed into two EP tubes and stored in a -80°C freezer for subsequent Lp(a) level testing. Serum Lp(a) levels were measured using the Mercodia Lp(a) ELISA (Mercodia, 10-1106-01) kit. The relative Lp(a) levels of each group were calculated at each time point after administration by normalizing based on the serum Lp(a) levels of cynomolgus monkeys before administration. The results are shown in Table 9 and Figure 4.

[0216] Example 7
[0217] Experiments on the interaction between nucleic acids and proteins were performed using the GE Biacore T200 instrument and the Cytiva S series SA chip based on the surface plasmon resonance principle.
[0218] According to the supplier manual, biotinylated modified AS strand RNA ligands were coupled to the channel surface of the Sensor Chip SA chip (Cytiva, catalog number BR-1005-31) using a standard ligand nucleic acid coupling program, and the target coupling amount was set to 500 RU.
[0219] For kinetic measurements, recombinant human Argonaute-2 / AGO2 protein (His tag) (SinoBiological, catalog number 11079-H07B) was injected under 1X HBS-EP+ buffer conditions at 25°C with a contact time of 180 seconds and gradually increasing concentration at a flow rate of 30 μL / min, and the signal over time was monitored.
