Description

A phthalazinone compound, preparation method thereof, pharmaceutical composition and use thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a phthalazinone compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and use thereof in preparing a medicament for preventing and / or treating cerebrovascular-related diseases. Background Art

[0002] Cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke, is a group of conditions that occur in the brain's blood vessels, causing damage to brain tissue due to dysfunction in these vessels. Acute cerebrovascular disease is generally divided into two categories: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic stroke accounts for 62.4% of new stroke cases, and currently, there is a shortage of clinical medications for the treatment of ischemic stroke. Although surgical thrombectomy allows for timely reperfusion of ischemic brain tissue, harmful substances such as inflammatory factors and excitatory amino acids produced during reperfusion can disrupt the blood-brain barrier and trigger an excessive immune inflammatory response, further exacerbating pathological damage and causing ischemia-reperfusion injury. This can lead to postoperative adverse reactions such as hemorrhagic transformation, cerebral edema, and neuroinflammation, directly impacting post-stroke recovery. Therefore, the development of new, safe and effective drugs for the treatment of stroke is of great social significance.

TLC confirmed the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was diluted with 100 mL of water and extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL). The ethyl acetate phase was then evaporated to dryness. The remaining aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL x 2). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated brine (200 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated.

[0135] Example 20: In vitro neuroprotective activity screening

[0136] The in vitro neuroprotective models of the tested compounds were hydrogen peroxide injury and glutamate injury models. PC-12 cells were cultured at 1.5×10 4 The density of cells / mL was set, and 100 μL was inoculated into a 96-well culture plate. The experiment was divided into a blank group, a model group, and a drug-added group. The hydrogen peroxide injury and glutamate injury models were stimulated for 2 hours with a final concentration of 120 μM hydrogen peroxide and 8 mM glutamate, respectively. The blank group was then cultured with complete medium, and the drug-added group was added with 10 μM of the test compound. After incubation for 24 hours, 10 μL CCK-8 was added to each well. After 60 minutes, the absorbance at 490 nm was measured using a microplate reader, and the survival rate was calculated. The survival rate was calculated as follows: (survival rate of the drug-treated group - survival rate of the model group) / (survival rate of the model group). The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2:

[0139] Example 21: Study on the anti-ischemic stroke activity of compound 17 in vivo

[0140] Male SD rats, weighing 280-300 g, were purchased from Spectrum Biotechnology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (certification number: 11400700293705) under license number SYXK(Beijing)2014-0023 and housed in an SPF-grade animal facility at the Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. They were maintained on a normal diet with free access to water. An appropriate amount of compound 17 prepared in Example 16 was accurately weighed and dissolved in normal saline to a 6 mg / mL solution, which was then used. Similarly, butylphthalide (NBP) was prepared into a 20 mg / mL solution, which was then used.

[0141] 120 SD male rats (SPF grade) weighing 280-300g were randomly divided into 6 groups, namely sham group (Sham group), model group (Vehicle group), positive drug group (butylphthalide, NBP group) and drug group (low, medium and high doses), with 20 rats in each group. Using the improved middle cerebral artery occlusion method, the suture was slowly introduced from the right external carotid artery through the internal carotid artery into the proximal anterior cerebral artery to block the blood supply source on the contralateral side of the middle cerebral artery. The sham group was only anesthetized and vascular stripped without ligating the blood vessels or introducing the suture. The drug group was gavage-administered with 10, 30, and 60 mg / kg of compound 17, the positive drug group was gavage-administered with 200 mg / kg of NBP, and the model group was gavage-administered with the same volume of normal saline. The drugs were administered once a day for 7 consecutive days.

[0142] Three hours after successful model establishment, a 5-point neurological function score was performed according to the Longa method: 0, no obvious neurological symptoms; 1, inability to fully extend the contralateral forelimb; 2, turning in circles toward the contralateral side; 3, falling toward the contralateral side while walking; 4, inability to walk independently. Rats with a score of 2 or 3 were included in the group, and the rest were excluded.

[0143] The rat brain infarct volume was measured using 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. Seven days after administration, the rats were deeply anesthetized, decapitated, and the brains removed. After placement in a brain mold, 2 mm thick brain slices were cut along the coronal plane. The slices were immersed in 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining solution and stained for 15 minutes in the dark. After overnight fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde, the stained brain slices were scanned and the infarct volume was calculated.

[0144] The experimental results are shown in Figures 1-3. It can be seen that different oral administrations of compound 17 (10, 30, 60 mg / kg) can effectively improve the survival rate of rats with ischemia-reperfusion injury, reverse the trend of weight loss in rats, and reduce the volume of cerebral infarction in a dose-dependent manner, and are superior to the effect of the positive drug butylphthalide (200 mg / kg).
