Description

A pyrazole derivative and its preparation method and application Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology, and specifically relates to a pyrazole derivative and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Cryptosporidium belongs to the genus Cryptosporidium, a group of parasitic protozoa in the order Coccidiales, encompassing multiple species that infect humans and animals. Cryptosporidium parvum is a major cause of diarrhea in humans and commercial animals. Cryptosporidium is a gastrointestinal parasite primarily transmitted through the fecal-oral route, with infection occurring after ingestion of contaminated food or water. While cryptosporidiosis is generally subtle in immunocompetent humans and animals, it can cause severe diarrhea and even death in immunocompromised hosts.

[0003] To date, there is no specific drug for Cryptosporidium. Nitazoxanide, a highly effective, broad-spectrum antiparasitic, bacterial, and fungal agent for both animal and human infections, is the first and only drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Cryptosporidium. However, it is only indicated for the treatment of immunocompetent children or adults and is ineffective in immunocompromised patients. Therefore, the development of new and effective anti-Cryptosporidium drugs is of great practical significance.

[0004] Pyrazole is a five-membered heterocyclic compound with two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 2. It exists in three forms and serves as the core structure in numerous compounds with important agrochemical and pharmaceutical properties. It exhibits low toxicity, high efficacy, and diverse structural transformations. Fusion of pyrazole with other cyclic groups can generate a large number of lead compounds. Pyrazole derivatives have been reported to exhibit antimicrobial, antitumor, antiviral, antituberculosis, antimalarial, antidiabetic, antidiuretic, anticonvulsant, antidepressant, antiobesity, and antipyretic activities. However, the therapeutic efficacy of pyrazole derivatives against Cryptosporidium is still unclear.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to explore and develop new pyrazole derivatives for use as drugs against Cryptosporidium.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0148] Example 36 Human colon cancer (HCT-8) cells were tested for anti-Cryptosporidium in vitro activity

[0149] 1. Reagents: RPMI1640, trypsin, sodium deoxycholate, fetal bovine serum and other reagents were purchased from commercial sources.

[0150] 2. Experimental Cryptosporidium species: Bovine Cryptosporidium oocysts were collected from cow feces, sieved through 60 mesh, and stored in 2.5% potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) preservation solution at 4°C until use.

[0151] 3. Experimental Methods

[0152] 3.1 Oocyst purification

[0153] Pipette 10 mL of fecal suspension from 2.5% K2Cr2O7 preservative solution, wash twice with 3 volumes of purified water, and then resuspend the feces in 2 volumes of purified water to purify the oocysts. Add 30 mL of saturated sucrose solution to a 50 mL centrifuge tube, slowly add 10 mL of the fecal suspension dropwise, and centrifuge at 1500 g for 20 minutes at 4°C. Aspirate 5 mL of the surface liquid, wash twice with 3 volumes of purified water, and centrifuge at 1500 g for 20 minutes before use.

[0154] 3.2 Oocyst sterilization

[0155] 2×10 purified Cryptosporidium andersoni oocysts were drawn from 2.5% K2Cr2O7 storage solution. 5 Wash each oocyst twice with purified water to remove K2Cr2O7. Resuspend the washed oocysts in sterile purified water to 900 μL in a 2 mL EP tube. Cool on ice and then sterilize. For sterilization, add 100 μL of ice-cold 1.05% sodium hypochlorite solution to the oocyst suspension. Shake vigorously and place on ice for 5 minutes. Wash twice with sterile PBS buffer and resuspend to 500 μL.

[0156] 3.3 Excystation of Sterile Cryptosporidium Oocysts

[0157] To 500 μL of sterile oocyst suspension, add 12x the volume of oocyst excystment solution (50 mg of trypsin and 150 mg of sodium taurodeoxycholate dissolved in 10 mL of PBS, sterilized with a 0.22 μm filter) and excyst in a 37°C water bath for 40 minutes. After excystment, wash twice with sterile PBS buffer and resuspend to 1 mL in RPMI-1640 basal medium containing 10% FCS for later use.

[0158] 3.4 Cell culture

[0159] HCT-8 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium containing 5% fetal calf serum (FCS) in a 37°C 5% CO2 incubator. After the cells had grown to the bottom of the culture dish, they were digested with cell digestion solution and transferred to new culture dishes.

[0160] 3.5 HCT-8 cell infection

[0161] HCT-8 cells were cultured in 6-well plates using RPMI-1640 medium containing 5% fetal bovine serum and placed in a 37°C 5% CO2 cell culture incubator for 48 hours. 3 The excysted oocysts were added in the appropriate number and cultured for 8 hours, followed by incubation with complete medium for 48 hours.

[0162] 3.6 Anti-Cryptosporidium Activity of Test Compounds against HCT-8 Cells Infected

[0163] Nitazoxanide was used as the control drug. Positive control group and blank control group were set up. The test compound was administered according to 6 concentration gradients (200 μg / mL, 40 μg / mL, 8 μg / mL, 1.6 μg / mL, 0.32 μg / mL, 0.064 μg / mL) and added to infected HCT-8 cells. The cells were incubated for 48 hours to evaluate the pharmacodynamic activity.

[0164] Table 1 Results of in vitro anti-Cryptosporidium activity test on HTC-8 cells

[0165] Experimental conclusion: The in vitro anti-Cryptosporidium activity of the compounds in the examples of the present invention is better than or equivalent to that of nitazoxanide, and has development value.

[0166] Example 37 In vivo anti-Cryptosporidium activity test in animals

[0167] 1. Experimental animals: 3-week-old ICR mice were purchased from Shanghai JST Laboratory Animal Co., Ltd.

[0168] 2. Test method:

[0169] 2.1 Mouse Grouping and Inoculation: The experimental mice were divided into groups, and nitazoxanide was used as a control drug. A positive control group and a blank control group were set up and inoculated with the sterilized Cryptosporidium oocysts prepared in Example 36.

[0170] 2.2 Dosing regimen for mice: Mice were gavaged 4 days after inoculation, with each mouse receiving 200 μL of nitazoxanide at a dose of 100 mg / kg and the test compound at doses of 100 mg / kg and 200 mg / kg for 15 consecutive days. The blank control group received no treatment.

[0171] 2.3 Collection of mouse fecal samples:

[0172] One day after inoculation, mouse feces were collected and collected continuously for 20 days. Two portions of feces were collected from each group every day, each weighing 1 g. The feces were transferred to 5 mL centrifuge tubes and a small amount of water was added. One portion was stored at 4°C for subsequent oocyst counting, and the other portion was stored at -20°C for future use.

[0173] 2.4 Cryptosporidium oocyst count:

[0174] Dissolve the mouse feces collected daily from each group in 40 mL of water. Stir thoroughly with a tongue depressor and filter through four layers of gauze. Take 5 mL of the filtrate and centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes. Discard the supernatant. Add 10 mL of saturated sugar solution to the precipitate, mix thoroughly, and centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 10 minutes. Add a drop of the top layer of the solution to a glass slide, cover with a slide, and examine under a 400x microscope. Record the number of oocysts with a counter.

[0175] Calculate the oocyst reduction rate of each experimental group as follows: oocyst reduction rate (%) = (total number of oocysts expelled in the infection group - total number of oocysts expelled in the experimental group) ÷ total number of oocysts expelled in the infection group × 100%.

[0176] Table 2 Oocyst reduction rate in mice

[0177] Experimental conclusion: The anti-Cryptosporidium activity of the compounds in the examples of the present invention in vivo is better than or equivalent to that of nitazoxanide.

[0178] Example 38 In vitro toxicity test on diamondback moth

[0179] Diamondback moth larvae were randomly divided into blank control, flurella control, and experimental groups. The test drug concentration was set at 100 μg / mL. Thirty larvae were placed on 12-day-old radish plants in each experimental group and the drug was sprayed onto each radish plant. After 48 hours, plant feeding damage was assessed based on leaf feeding, and diamondback moth mortality was counted. The diamondback moth toxicity results are shown in Table 3.

[0180] Table 3 Detection rate of drug toxicity to diamondback moth

[0181] The results show that the compounds of the present invention have activity in killing Plutella xylostella, and the activity of the compounds in the examples is better than or equivalent to that of flurella.
