[0044] Detailed description of the invention
[0045] Definitions and General Terms
[0046] In this document, the terms “include” or “comprising” are open expressions, that is, including the contents specified in the present invention, but not excluding other contents.
[0047] As used herein, the terms "optionally," "optional," or "optionally" generally mean that the subsequently described event or circumstance may but need not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.
[0048] As used herein, the definitions and conventions of stereoisomers are generally in accordance with SP Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (1984) McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; and Eliel, E. and Wilen, S., "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds", John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1994. The compounds of the present invention may contain asymmetric centers or chiral centers and therefore exist in different stereoisomeric forms. It is contemplated that all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of the present invention, including but not limited to diastereomers, enantiomers and atropisomers, and mixtures thereof, such as racemic mixtures, are encompassed by the present invention. Many organic compounds exist in optically active forms, i.e., they have the ability to rotate the plane of plane-polarized light. When describing an optically active compound, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule with respect to the chiral center(s) in the molecule. The prefixes d and l, or (+) and (-), are symbols used to designate the rotation of plane-polarized light caused by a compound, where (-) or l indicates that the compound is levorotatory. A compound prefixed with (+) or d is dextrorotatory. With respect to a given chemical structure, these stereoisomers are identical except that they are mirror images of one another. Specific stereoisomers may also be referred to as enantiomers, and a mixture of such isomers is often referred to as a mixture of enantiomers. A 50:50 mixture of enantiomers is called a racemic mixture or racemate, which can occur when there is no stereoselectivity or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process.
[0049] Depending on the choice of starting materials and process, the compounds of the present invention may exist as one of the possible isomers or as a mixture thereof, for example as pure optical isomers, or as a mixture of isomers, such as a racemic and diastereomeric mixture, depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms. Optically active (R)- or (S)-isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. If the compound contains a double bond, the substituents may be in the E or Z configuration; if the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the cycloalkyl substituents may be in the cis or trans configuration.
[0050] The compounds of the present invention may contain asymmetric centers or chiral centers and therefore exist in different stereoisomeric forms. It is contemplated that all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of the present invention, including but not limited to diastereomers, enantiomers and atropisomers and geometric (or conformational) isomers and mixtures thereof, such as racemic mixtures, are within the scope of the present invention.
[0051] As used herein, the term "tautomer" or "tautomeric form" refers to structural isomers with different energies that can be converted into each other through a low energy barrier. If tautomerism is possible (such as in solution), a chemical equilibrium of the tautomers can be reached. For example, proton tautomers (also known as prototropic tautomers) include interconversions that occur through proton migration, such as keto-enol isomerization and imine-enamine isomerization. Valence tautomers include interconversions that occur through the reorganization of some bonding electrons. Unless otherwise indicated, all tautomeric forms of the compounds of the invention are within the scope of the invention.
[0052] As used herein, the term "solvate" refers to an association formed between one or more solvent molecules and a compound of the present invention. Solvents that form solvates include, but are not limited to, water, isopropanol, ethanol, methanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethyl acetate, acetic acid, and aminoethanol. The term "hydrate" refers to an association formed when the solvent molecule is water.
[0053] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means that the substance or composition must be chemically and / or toxicologically compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and / or the mammal to be treated therewith. Preferably, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" as used herein means approved by federal regulatory agencies or national governments or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in animals, particularly humans.

[0120] First, a lysine long-chain polypeptide (RHKK-Lys(Ac)-AMC) synthesized by the Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis method was acetylated on the last lysine and linked to coumarin. Coumarin is a natural fluorescent group that emits fluorescence at a wavelength of 460nm only when it is in a free state and excited at a wavelength of 360nm. Then, a compound is added to the system containing the lysine long-chain polypeptide, and the compound is allowed to catalyze the removal of the lysine acetylation modification by SIRT6 protein in the system, thereby exposing the coumarin. In the subsequent operation of adding trypsin, the chemical bond connecting coumarin to lysine will be cut, thereby producing free coumarin that can emit a fluorescent signal. The activity of SIRT6 deacetylase in the system is reflected by detecting the strength of the fluorescent signal, thereby reflecting the activation effect of the added compound on the SIRT6 enzyme activity. Among them, the detailed steps are as follows:
[0121] 1) In vitro enzyme activity assays were performed on Compound 1 and Compound 2 in Example 1 using a well plate with a transparent bottom and a black inner wall.
[0122] 2) The reaction system for enzyme activity detection is shown in Table 1:
[0123] Table 1
[0124] Add the test compound to a final concentration of 50 μM and then add the above reaction system. The reaction reagents in the above table need to be diluted with a buffer solution to the final concentration. The buffer solution ratio is shown in Table 2:
[0125] Table 2
[0126] The total volume was made up to 20 μl with buffer solution and incubated in a 37°C constant temperature incubator in the dark for 2 hours.
[0127] 3) After the reaction is complete, add 40 mM NAM and 6 mg / ml trypsin per 20 μl of the reaction system and mix the system thoroughly at 160 rpm in a 25°C incubator for 30 minutes.
[0128] 4) Set the excitation wavelength of the microplate reader to 360 nm and the emission wavelength to 460 nm, test the reaction system, and calculate the catalytic activity of SIRT6 according to the following formula:
[0129] The detection results of compound 1 are shown in Figure 3, and the detection results of compound 2 are shown in Figure 4. The results showed that compared with the existing agonists MDL-800 and ellagic acid, both compound 1 and compound 2 have higher activation effects on SIRT6 enzyme activity.
[0130] 2. Compound dose-effect curve detection
[0131] Compound 1 and compound 2 in Example 1 were taken and different concentration gradients were set up. The compounds at each concentration were tested according to the fluorescence reaction system in step 2, and a dose-effect curve was drawn. The test results of compound 1 are shown in Figure 5, and the test results of compound 2 are shown in Figure 6. The results showed that in the in vitro enzyme activity test system, the log (IC 50 ) was 1.881, and the log(IC 50 ) is 1.556.
[0132] 3. Compound toxicity testing
[0133] Compound 1 and Compound 2 from Example 1 were added to the culture supernatant of the mouse hippocampal neuronal cell line HT22 at different concentration gradients. After incubation at 37°C for 48 hours, CCK8 was used to detect the cell proliferation inhibition at each concentration. The detection results for Compound 1 are shown in Figure 7 , and the detection results for Compound 2 are shown in Figure 8 . The results showed that both Compound 1 and Compound 2 had low toxicity. Compound 1 maintained a high cell viability at a concentration of 0.550 mmol / L, and Compound 2 maintained a high cell viability at a concentration of 0.989 mmol / L.
[0134] 4. Detection of compound physiological functions
[0135] Compound 1 and Compound 2 from Example 1 were co-cultured with the mouse hippocampal neuronal cell line HT22 at varying concentrations at 37°C for 48 hours. Protein from the 48-hour treated mouse hippocampal neuronal cell line HT22 was then collected and Western blot assayed for acetylation at the H3K9 site. The activation effects of Compound 1 and Compound 2 on the catalytic activity of SIRT6 in the cell lines were evaluated. The assay results for Compound 1 are shown in Figure 9 , and for Compound 2, in Figure 10 . The results showed that both Compound 1 and Compound 2 effectively enhanced the deacetylation activity of SIRT6 on histones in the cell lines.
[0136] Example 3: Verification of the anti-aging activity of compounds at the cellular level
[0137] Considering that cell lines have the characteristics of immortalized cells and cannot well characterize the characteristics of senescent cells, the experiments in this example were conducted in primary cells or the C2C12 cell line specifically used for studying senescence.
[0138] Currently, the common indicators used in the academic community to detect cell senescence levels include: SA-β-Gal staining and detection of p16 and p21 senescence-related gene expression. The specific steps are as follows:
[0139] 1) β-galactose was used to induce senescence in the C2C12 cell line. Compound 1 and Compound 2 from Example 1 were added to the culture medium and co-cultured with the cells for 24 hours. RNA was extracted from the cells and reverse-transcribed into cDNA. The expression of the p16 and p21 genes in the cells was detected by quantitative PCR.
[0140] 2) β-galactose was used to induce senescence in the C2C12 cell line. Compound 1 and Compound 2 from Example 1 were added to the culture medium and co-cultured with the cells for 24 hours. The cells were stained with SA-β-Gal to examine the effect of the added compounds on the SA-β-Gal staining positivity rate.
[0141] 3) Primary cells were induced to undergo replicative senescence by multiple passages. Compounds 1 and 2 from Example 1 were added to the culture medium of the primary cells and co-cultured with the cells for 24 hours. RNA was extracted from the cells, reverse transcribed into cDNA, and the expression of the p16 and p21 genes in the cells was detected by fluorescent quantitative PCR.
[0142] 4) Primary cells were induced to undergo replicative senescence by multiple passages. Compound 1 and Compound 2 from Example 1 were added to the culture medium of the primary cells and co-cultured with the cells for 24 hours. The primary cells were stained with SA-β-Gal to examine the effect of compound addition on the SA-β-Gal staining positivity rate.
[0143] The results showed that the intervention of Compound 1 and Compound 2 decreased the SA-β-Gal staining positivity rate or the expression levels of p16 and p21 genes in primary cells of induced senescent C2C12 that had produced replicative senescence and reached the division limit, further demonstrating that the compounds of the present invention have anti-aging activity at the cellular level.
