Description

Uridine phosphate amine compounds, preparation methods, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to uridine phosphate amine compounds, preparation methods thereof, pharmaceutical compositions thereof and medical uses thereof. The uridine phosphate amine compounds can better introduce active uridine 5'-monophosphate into the body, greatly increasing the uridine 5'-monophosphate concentration in the body, and in particular can effectively increase the uridine 5'-monophosphate concentration in the brain, thereby improving the therapeutic effect of brain-related diseases. Background Art

[0002] Normally, uridine is the primary pyrimidine nucleoside form absorbed by the brain and used in the synthesis of nucleic acids and cell membranes (Curr. Top. Med. Chem. 2011, 11, 1058). Furthermore, uridine is a bioactive molecule in the brain, playing an important role in central nervous system functions such as memory and neuroplasticity. Uridine levels in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, or Parkinson's disease are significantly lower than those of normal individuals (Alzheimer's & Dementia: Siagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring 2017, 1; Neurol. Ther. 2021, 10, 43). Uridine is also a fundamental raw material for cell membrane synthesis. Supplementing uridine in vivo, particularly in the brain, can increase the formation of synaptic networks in the brain (Nutr. Rev. 2010, 68:S88-101), effectively alleviating the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, and Parkinson's disease, or improving their therapeutic efficacy.

[0003] Experiments (Cell Discovery 2022, 8:6, 1-22) show that uridine injection or oral gavage increased uridine levels in mice's plasma, muscles, and brains. It also promoted the repair of five tissue and organ injuries, including muscle regeneration, cardiovascular disease, hair regeneration, and liver fibrosis. For example, mice with muscle damage improved limb grip strength, mice with hair damage regenerated hair, mice with myocardial infarction experienced increased cardiac contractility, and mice with liver fibrosis were alleviated. Directly feeding uridine to elderly mice for two months significantly improved their systemic motor function. It has also been found that cells or tissues with higher uridine levels have greater regenerative capacity. Uridine is also known to enhance brain plasticity by creating and reorganizing synaptic connections, enhancing the brain's ability to adapt, remember, and learn. Aging diseases often reduce the number of synapses, or nerve cell connections, through which neurotransmitters transmit information to the brain and body. Therefore, increasing uridine levels in tissues, particularly the brain, may help slow the aging process. Uridine is a precursor for the synthesis of phospholipids and cell membranes. Supplementing uridine in the body, including in the brain, can increase brain citicoline (CDP-choline) levels, promoting recovery from impaired consciousness after brain trauma or surgery. Elevated uridine levels can increase synaptic formation in brain neurons (Nutrition Reviews 2010, 68, Suppl. 2, S88-S-101), which can help improve memory, optimize mitochondrial function, enhance mood, and protect nerves.

[0004] Low uridine levels are also a key characteristic of patients with Alzheimer's disease and dementia (Alzheimer's Dement. 2020, 12, e12120). Animal studies have also shown that the combination of uridine and DHA has a restorative effect on Parkinson's disease (Neurosci. Res. 2008, 62, 206). Therefore, supplementing patients with Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease with uridine, or supplementing them with DHA simultaneously, or supplementing them with choline derivatives, may improve the therapeutic effect. Increasing these substances in the body, especially in the brain, may help slow or reverse the progression of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Studies have shown that uridine supplementation can increase dopamine release (Bipolar Disorders. 2010, 12, 825; J. Mol. Neurosci. 2005, 27, 137), effectively alleviating symptoms of depression. In an open-label, six-week clinical trial of uridine for the treatment of manic-depressive psychosis in adolescents, uridine was shown to alleviate depressive symptoms (J. Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology. 2011, 21, 171). Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND), currently has no effective drug treatment. Mouse studies showed that uridine administration significantly prolonged survival in G93A mice in a dose-dependent manner, while also improving behavioral and neuropathological phenotypes. Uridine increased the survival rate of G93A mice by 17.4%, improved weight loss, enhanced motor performance, reduced atrophy of the lumbar spine and ventral horn, alleviated neuronal cell death in the lumbar ventral horn, and reduced reactive astrogliosis. These data suggest that increasing uridine may be effective in treating ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. 2010, 11, 520).

[0005] Supplementing uridine can repair cells and tissues, improve memory and cognitive function, and is beneficial for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, the improvement of cognitive dysfunction and the treatment of depression. It may also have a certain effect on the treatment of ALS patients.

[0006] It is well known that uridine must be converted into uridine triphosphate (UTP) to exert its physiological effects. During this process, uridine is first converted into uridine monophosphate (UMP) under the catalysis of uridine-cytidine kinase (UCK) (Molecular Pharmacology, 59, 1181). UMP is converted into uridine diphosphate (UDP) under the catalysis of nucleoside monophosphate kinases (NMPs). UDP is then converted into uridine triphosphate (UTP) under the catalysis of nucleoside diphosphate kinases (NDPKs). UTP is converted into cytidine triphosphate (CTP) under the catalysis of cytidine triphosphate synthase. CTP is converted into the key active ingredient phosphatidylcholine (Phosphatidylcholine, Brain Research Reviews 2006, 52, 389) through a series of processes. Phosphatidylcholine can promote the repair and regeneration of cells or tissues, and promote the repair and regeneration of neurons and synapses. In this conversion process, the reaction of uridine to uridine monophosphate is not easy to proceed, and the monophosphorylation of uridine is the rate-limiting reaction.

[0007] The bioavailability of uridine in mice is only 7% (Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol. 1986, 17, 236). The oral bioavailability in humans is between 5.8% and 9.9% (J. National Cancer Institute. 1991, 83, 437). Uridine triacetate can significantly increase the bioavailability of uridine, increasing uridine levels in the circulation by 4-6 times (Hosp. Pharm. 2016, 51, 484). However, the absolute exposure to uridine monophosphate remains very low. Therefore, it is essential to develop a substance and method that can effectively and directly deliver uridine monophosphate to the body, especially the brain. Summary of the Invention

[0008] After extensive research, the inventors designed and synthesized uridine phosphate amine compounds, which significantly increase the exposure of uridine monophosphate in plasma and in the brain. This will improve the repair and regeneration of brain cells, brain tissue, cranial nerves, and synapses, and more effectively improve the treatment of uridine deficiency-related diseases, such as better delaying the progression of Alzheimer's disease, cognitive dysfunction, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease, and better improve the symptoms of depression and the treatment of diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

[0111] Animal testing

[0112] Example 1 Testing the Content of Uridine and Uridine Monophosphate (UMP) in Plasma and Brain of Mice

[0113] The test method is as follows:

[0114] 1. Test sample preparation: Accurately weigh an appropriate amount of the test compound (see Table 1 below) and mix with an appropriate volume of solvent (5% DMSO / 10% solutol / 85% (0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose) to obtain a clear solution or uniform suspension.

[0115] 2. Administration: The animals will be administered within 4 hours after preparation of the formulation. The formulation will be administered via oral gavage according to standard operating procedures (SOP). Mice will be given vehicle or test article (test compound dose 1 mmol / kg mouse body weight).

[0116] 3. Blood collection: Blood was collected from the jugular vein of each animal at each time point (approximately 0.2 ml at each time point). All blood samples were transferred to pre-cooled commercial EDTA-K2 tubes and placed on wet ice.

[0117] 4. Plasma processing: Blood samples were centrifuged at approximately 4°C (3200 rpm, 10 minutes). Plasma was collected separately and transferred to pre-labeled PP tubes on wet ice, then immediately precipitated with acetonitrile (ACN) (6IS) (plasma:ACN ratio of 1:4). Centrifuged again (10 minutes, 12,000 rpm) and the supernatant was obtained. It was quickly frozen on dry ice and kept at -70 ± 10°C until LC / MS / MS analysis.

[0118] 5. Brain Tissue Processing: Brain tissue was collected at each time point, washed twice with pre-chilled deionized water, and dried using filter paper. Immediately homogenize the brain tissue with 10 volumes of a methanol-water solution (1:2, v / v). Immediately remove an appropriate amount of the homogenate (e.g., 200 μL), pellet the sample on wet ice, centrifuge, and collect the supernatant. Store at -70 ± 10°C until LC-MS / MS analysis.

[0119] Mice were gavaged with either vehicle (5% DMSO / 10% solutol / 85% (0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose)) or the test article (all at a dose of 1 mmol / kg). Brain tissue samples were obtained at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 h. The concentrations of uridine and uridylic acid in brain tissue were determined by LC-MS / MS as described above.

[0120] The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 respectively.

[0121] Table 1. Contents of uridine and uridine monophosphate in plasma after oral administration of vehicle or test sample

[0122] The test results in Table 1 show that the AUC of uridine in the vehicle group is 315 times that of uridine monophosphate, indicating that uridine cannot be effectively phosphated into active uridine monophosphate. Although the use of uridine triethyl ester can increase the content of uridine in the body to a certain extent, the amount of uridine monophosphate increased is limited, only 1.52 times that of the vehicle group. However, the Formula I compound of the present invention increases the exposure of uridine monophosphate in plasma by more than 6.9 times that of the vehicle group. Therefore, the Formula I compound of the present invention is a better uridine monophosphate supplement and can better play the role of supplementing uridine monophosphate.

[0123] Table 2. Uracillin content in the brain of mice after oral administration of vehicle or test sample

[0124] The test results in Table 2 show that the compound of formula I of the present invention significantly increases the exposure of uridine monophosphate in the mouse brain, which also proves that the compound of formula I provided by the present invention is a better uridine monophosphate supplement.

[0125] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Equivalent changes, modifications, and combinations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept and principle of the present invention, including any deuterated compounds, should all fall within the scope of the present invention.
