Abstract
Description
A chalcone derivative and its preparation method and application
[0001] This application claims priority to a prior application, patent application number 202311598560.7, filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on November 27, 2023, entitled “A chalcone derivative, its preparation method, and use.” The entire text of that prior application is incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical compounds, and in particular relates to a chalcone derivative, a preparation method thereof and pharmaceutical application thereof. Background Art
[0003] Chalcone is a simple chemical scaffold of many natural compounds, widely distributed in vegetables, fruits, tea and other plants. Chalcone compounds have a common chemical scaffold 1,3-diaryl-2-propen-1-one The therapeutic application of chalcones dates back thousands of years, through the use of plants and herbs to treat different medical conditions, such as cancer, inflammation, and diabetes. Several chalcone-based compounds have been approved for clinical use; for example, metochalcone was once marketed as a choleretic drug, while sofarone was previously used as an anti-ulcer and mucosal protective agent.
[0004] Chalcones exhibit a wide range of biological activities, likely due to their small structure and Michael acceptor characteristics, which make them tolerant to different biomolecules and allow them to bind readily or reactively to different biomolecules. The biological activities of chalcones include anticancer activity, cancer prevention effects, anti-inflammatory activity, antimicrobial activity, antituberculosis activity, antidiabetic activity, antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity, antiviral activity, antimalarial activity, and neuroprotective effects.
[0005] Due to their ease of synthesis, numerous chalcone derivatives have been prepared. These natural and synthetic compounds have demonstrated numerous interesting biological activities and possess clinical potential against various diseases. Numerous studies have demonstrated their potent and positive effects in reducing inflammation, modulating immune responses, and supporting and restoring normal cellular function.

[0083] The compounds of the present invention may contain asymmetric or chiral centers and therefore exist in different enantiomeric forms. All enantiomeric forms of these compounds and mixtures thereof (including racemic mixtures) are intended to form part of the present invention. Individual enantiomers of the compounds can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials containing asymmetric or stereogenic centers, or by preparing racemic mixtures followed by resolution methods well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. These resolution methods are exemplified by: (1) coupling the enantiomeric mixture with a chiral auxiliary, separating the resulting diastereomeric mixture by recrystallization or chromatography, and freeing the optically pure product from the auxiliary; (2) forming salts using an optically active resolving agent; or (3) directly separating the mixture of optical enantiomers on a chiral chromatographic column.

[0124] Example 2 Anti-inflammatory activity
[0125] 1. Anti-inflammatory activity experimental methods
[0126] 1) Experimental Materials
[0127] Cells: dendritic cells (DC2.4), macrophages (RAW264.7)
[0128] Cytokine kits: IL-6 detection kit, TNF-α detection kit
[0129] Stimulant: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
[0130] Positive control: dexamethasone (Dex)
[0131] Solvent: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)
[0132] Comparative compound: WR010
[0133] 2) Experimental steps
[0134] Cell culture: DC2.4 cells and RAW264.7 cells were revived in T75 cell culture flasks and cultured in a 37°C 5% CO2 incubator. When the cell density in the cell culture flask reached above 99%, they were subcultured for at least 2 times. Then, DC2.4 cells and RAW264.7 cells were plated in 24-well cell culture plates at a cell density of 0.5×10 cells per well. 6 Culture overnight to allow cells to fully adhere to the wall.
[0135] Drug treatment: 20 μM of compound and Dex were added to the cells of the experimental group and positive control group, respectively. Only DMSO, the solvent for dissolving the compound, was added to the negative control. The cells were incubated in a constant temperature incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 1 hour. Then, 5 μg / mL of LPS was added to each well of the experimental group and positive control group and incubated for 12 hours. The cell supernatant was collected and used for the detection of cytokine TNF-α and IL-6 levels.
[0136] Cytokine Assay: Serum cytokine levels were measured using TNF-α and IL-6 ELISA kits. Add 100 μL of TNF-α and IL-6 capture antibody solution to a 96-well plate and incubate overnight at 4°C. Wash three times with Wash Buffer, block with 200 μL / well of Assay Diluent A, incubate at 37°C for 1 hour, and wash three times. Add 100 μL / well of TNF-α and IL-6 standards and samples, incubate at 37°C for 2 hours, wash three times, add 100 μL of diluted TNF-α and IL-6 antibody solution, incubate at 37°C for 1 hour, wash three times, add 100 μL of Avidin-HRP solution, incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes, wash three times, add 100 μL of TMB, and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 30 minutes. Terminate the reaction by adding 100 μL of stop solution. Read the absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader within 15 minutes, and calculate cytokine levels based on the standard curve.
[0137] 2. Experimental results
[0138] The experimental results are shown in Figures 1-4. All the test compounds can downregulate the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in RAW264.7 cells and DC2.4 cells after LPS stimulation. There are significant differences compared with the LPS group, and all are better than the positive control dexamethasone, and basically better than the reference compound WR010.
[0139] 3. The inventors further conducted a concentration gradient experiment using WR048-WR051 and compound 15 as examples: using the same experimental method as mentioned above, the experimental compounds and the positive control dexamethasone were treated with 20 μM, 10 μM, and 5 μM cells, respectively, and the levels of cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 were detected. The results showed that WR048-WR051 and compound 15 inhibited the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 produced under LPS stimulation in a dose-effect relationship. The higher the concentration, the greater the inhibitory intensity, and both were better than the corresponding concentration of the positive control dexamethasone.
[0140] The above experimental results show that the compound of the present invention has the effect of inhibiting the production of TNF-α and IL-6 by dendritic cells and macrophages under LPS stimulation.

[0142] 1. Anti-Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cell (TNBC) Proliferation Experiment - CCK-8 Detection
[0143] 1) Experimental Materials
[0144] Cells: Human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-468, BT549, Cal51
[0145] Cell proliferation detection kit: Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) kit (TargetMol)
[0146] Positive control drug: 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu, MCE)
[0147] Solvent: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (Solarbio)
[0148] 2) Experimental steps
[0149] Cell culture: MDA-MB-468, BT549, and Cal51 cells were revived in T75 cell culture flasks and cultured in a 37°C 5% CO2 incubator. When the cell density in the cell culture flask reached above 90%, the cells were passaged for at least 2 times. The cells were then plated in 96-well cell culture plates at a cell density of 1×10 4 Culture overnight to allow cells to fully adhere to the wall.
[0150] Drug Treatment: Test compounds were added to cells in the experimental group to a final concentration of 10 μM. Control cells were treated with only DMSO, the solvent used to dissolve the compound. The positive control group was treated with the same concentration of 5-Fu. The blank control group was treated with only culture medium without cells. The cells were incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 48 hours.
[0151] Detection: After 48 hours, 10 μL of CCK-8 solution was added to each well of the experimental group, control group, positive control group and blank group and incubated for 1-2 hours. The absorbance at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader to calculate the cell survival rate.
[0152] Cell survival rate = [(As-Ab) / (Ac-Ab)] × 100%
