NLRP3 inhibitor compound and preparation method and application thereof
[0001] This application claims the priority of the prior application filed with the China National Intellectual Property Office on June 28, 2024, with the patent application number 2024108646951, and the invention name of "NLRP3 inhibitor compound and preparation method and application thereof"; the entire contents of the prior application are incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present application belongs to the field of compounds, and particularly relates to a NLRP3 inhibitor compound and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0003] NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) is an important member of the NOD-like receptor family. NLRP3 contains three parts of pyrin domain (PYD), nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and leucine-rich repeat (LRR). When the cell receives the stimulation of aseptic inflammatory danger signals, NLRP3 interacts with the adapter protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) and pro-caspase-1 to form the NLRP3 inflammasome complex. The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome leads to the release of IL-1β and IL-18.

[0325] IC of NLRP3 inhibitors in reducing the level of IL-1β secreted by THP-1 cells 50 Experiment
[0326] 1. Experimental principle: This experiment uses human monocyte cell line THP-1 to study the inhibitory activity of NLRP3 inhibitors on the secretion of IL-1β by cells. Tocopheryl-Palmitate-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) is used to treat human THP-1 cells to differentiate into mature macrophage model. Then, according to the two stages of inflammasome formation in cells (assembly and activation), the cells are sequentially stimulated with lipopolysaccharide LPS and nigericin, which ultimately promotes the release of IL-1β from THP-1 cells. The first stage of inflammasome formation is to stimulate the cells with LPS (lipopolysaccharide), an agonist of Toll-like receptor TLR4, to activate the protein expression of inflammasome-related proteins NLRP3, caspase 1 and IL-1β precursor pro-IL-1β. The second stage of inflammasome formation is to add potassium ion carrier nigericin to change the membrane potential in THP-1 cells, destroy the membrane structure of the cells, cause the cells to expel potassium ions, further stimulate NLRP3 monomers to oligomerize to form NLRP3 oligomers, and begin to recruit ASC and pro-caspase-1 to assemble NLRP3 inflammasome complex containing a large amount of pro-caspase-1. Activated NLRP3 inflammasome activates pro-caspase-1 by proteolysis to form a large amount of active caspase-1, which further proteolyzes to promote the conversion of pro-IL-1β to mature IL-1β that can be secreted. In this process, NLRP3 inhibitors can effectively inhibit the maturation and activation of NLRP3 induced by nigericin, as well as the activation of caspase-1 downstream, thereby inhibiting the maturation and secretion of IL-1β.

After cell counting, resuspend THP-1 cells with complete RPMI medium 1640 containing PMA and inoculate into 96-well plates, and incubate in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 hours.
[0331] (2) Use an automatic plate washing dispenser EL406 to remove the medium from each well, and rinse each well twice with PBS. Add 96 μL of RPMI 1640 medium containing LPS to each well. Incubate the cells in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 4 hours.

The test was performed in gradient mode with a humidity change of 0%-95%-0%, and the humidity change was 10% in the range of 0% to 90% for each gradient. The end of the gradient was determined by dm / dt, and the end of the gradient was determined when dm / dt was less than 0.002% and maintained for 10 minutes.

[0356] Test Example 6 Dynamic solubility test in biological media and water
[0357] The preparation process of the biological medium is shown in Table 32. The samples of different crystal forms were added to the biological medium and water and stirred at 37°C for 24h. Samples were taken at 0.5h, 2h and 24h, respectively. The sampled solution was filtered with a 0.22μm water filter membrane, and some samples with high concentration were appropriately diluted with diluent. The signal peak area of the solution was measured by HPLC, and finally the concentration of the compound in the solution was calculated according to the peak area, the HPLC standard curve of the raw material and the dilution factor. In addition, the 24h supernatant was tested for pH value. The test results are shown in Table 33.

[0389] After the animals arrived and adapted to the environment for 1 week, the animals were randomly divided into 2 groups (7+28), 7 mice were normally fed, and 28 mice were fed with high-fat feed (HFD). After the animals were raised for 22-23 weeks, they were fasted for 6 hours, and the blood glucose level was detected by blood glucose meter. All animals were subjected to orbital blood collection, and serum was collected by centrifugation to detect serum TC and TG levels. The animals were randomly divided into 4 groups according to body weight, serum TC and TG levels, and continued to be fed with high-fat feed (HFD), and another group of 7 mice were normally fed. According to Table 4, the drug was administered for 30 days.
