Description

A 2,5-diketopiperazine compound and its application Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medicinal chemistry, and specifically relates to a 2,5-diketopiperazine compound and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Plinabulin (NPI-2358) is a structurally modified derivative of the low-molecular-weight cyclic dipeptide phenylahistin, a metabolite produced by the marine fungus Aspergillus sp. It is a tubulin inhibitor. Plinabulin selectively targets the colchicine binding site on endothelial tubulin, inhibiting tubulin polymerization and blocking microtubule assembly, thereby disrupting the endothelial cytoskeleton and suppressing tumor activity. It also inhibits endothelial cell migration, leading to dysfunction of the tumor vasculature. Experimental studies have shown that Plinabulin arrests cells in early mitosis and induces cell death. Recent studies have shown that Plinabulin is a differentiation-immune and stem cell modulator, as well as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor H1 (GEF-H1) activator, targeting and altering the tumor microenvironment and disrupting tumor vasculature through multiple mechanisms of action. Plinabulin is also a potent antigen-presenting cell (APC) inducer (via dendritic cell maturation), and its sustained anticancer effects are related to its T cell activation.

[0003] The chemical structure of Plinabulin is as follows. Its molecular formula is C 19 H 20 N₄O₂, with a molecular weight of 336.39 and a CAS number of 714272-27-2, has good stability but poor water solubility, making it difficult to commercialize as a drug and a major technical barrier. Existing technologies have modified the structure of Plinabulin, but none of these have addressed its poor water solubility.

[0144] Example 15 Cell proliferation inhibition test

[0145] Tumor cells (NCI-H460, BxPC-3, HT-29, HepG2) in the logarithmic growth phase were digested and centrifuged. The supernatant was removed and the cells were resuspended in fresh culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum. The cells were counted using a cell counter. 100 μL of culture medium (containing cells) was added to a 96-well plate at a standard of 2000-6000 cells per well. The 96-well plate was then filled with PBS on all sides and incubated in an incubator (37°C, 5% CO2) for 24 hours. Once the cells were fully adhered, the test samples and the positive control Plinabulin were diluted to different concentrations in fresh culture medium. A concentration gradient of six different drug concentrations was added, with 100 μL per well and three replicates per concentration. The cells were incubated in a 5% CO2, 37°C incubator for 72 hours. After adding 20 μL of 5 mg / mL MTT to each well and placing it in an incubator for 4 hours, the MTT was discarded and 100 μL of DMSO was added to each well. The plate was placed on a 96-well plate shaker and shaken to completely dissolve the purple formazan. The absorbance (OD value) was then detected at a wavelength of 490 nm using a microplate reader. The experiment also required setting a zeroing well (blank culture medium, MTT, DMSO). Cell inhibition rate = 1-(OD value of the drug-addition group-OD value of the zeroing group) / (OD value of the blank group-OD value of the zeroing group) × 100%. The experimental data were processed using Excel and Origin8.5 software to calculate the IC 50 The experiment was repeated 3 times and the results were averaged.
