Abstract
Description
An APOLs inhibitor Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a compound that inhibits apolipoprotein L, for the treatment of diseases with abnormal apolipoprotein L, and belongs to the field of biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Background Technology
[0002] The human apolipoprotein L (APOL) gene family was identified in 2001. This family encodes apolipoprotein L1-6 (APOL1-6) proteins. APOL1 was identified first, followed by APOLs (APOL2-6). One common characteristic of the APOL family is that their expression can be induced by inflammatory triggers, such as interferon or TNFα, suggesting that they are part of the innate immune system (Vanhollebeke and Pays 2006; Zhaorigetu et al. 2008, 2011; Liao et al., 2011; Nichols et al., 2015). These proteins are effectors of the innate immune response to viruses, bacteria, and protozoan parasites. Members of the APOL family share high homology. Due to the high similarity among APOL proteins, they are generally considered to have similar functions to the earliest discovered APOL1, which forms cation channels in planar lipid bilayers and membranes, thereby generating cytolytic activity. However, Jyoti Pant et al. found that APOL1, APOL3, and APOL6 have cytolytic activity, while APOL2, APOL4, and APOL5 do not (Apolipoproteins L1-6 share key cation channel-regulating residues but have different membrane insertion and ion conductance properties, 2021). Despite their structural conservatism, APOLs proteins are functionally different.
[0003] Of the six apolipoproteins (APOL1-6), APOL1 is the most studied and best characterized. APOL1 is expressed only in humans and some other higher primates and is the only protein secreted from cells. It circulates in serum as a subfraction of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and the HDL complex containing APOL1 accounts for 1% of the total HDL in plasma. It is the only member of the APOLs family to contain an N-terminal signal peptide (SP), which mediates its secretion into the serum as a trypanolytic factor (TLF) (Duchateau et al., 1997; Pays et al., 2006; Friedman and Pollak, 2011), protecting humans from the trypanolytic parasites that cause African sleeping sickness (Hajduk et al., 1989; Raper et al., 1999; Vanhamme et al., 2003; Pays et al., 2014; Weckerle et al., 2016). Meanwhile, APOL1 is a cation channel-forming protein that can insert into the lipid bilayer and form closed ion channels under acidic pH conditions. These channels are pH-controlled, so they open when the pH is neutralized, allowing cations to pass through the bilayer. Numerous studies have provided evidence that the increased risk of kidney disease is caused by intracellular rather than circulating APOL1 pools (Chen et al., 2015; Heneghan et al., 2015; Khatua et al., 2015; Ma et al., 2017, 2020); Olabisi et al., 2016; Beckerman et al., 2017; Granado et al., 2017; Kruzel-Davila, Shemer et al., 2017; Madhavan et al., 2017; Shah et al., 2019; Uzureau et al., 2020).
[0004] Pays and colleagues initially proposed a concept for APOL1 (Perez-Morga et al., 2005; Pays et al., 2006), which was extended by Smith and Malik (2009) to all members of the APOL family. APOL proteins contain three functional parts: a pore-forming domain (PFD), a membrane addressing domain (MAD), and an SRA-interacting protein-like domain (SID).
[0005] Of the six conserved apolipoprotein L (APOL1-6) variants, APOL1 variants have been the most studied. Through co-evolutionary competition, two APOL1 variants—G1 (S342G / I384M) and G2 (D388N, D389Y)—re-established APOL1-associated protection against these parasites in sub-Saharan African ancestry (Pays et al., 2014; Capewell et al., 2015; Kruzel-Davila, Wasser et al., 2017). APOL1 variant G2 lyses *Trypanosoma rhodesianum* but not *Trypanosoma gambiae*, while APOL1 G1 is associated with latent, asymptomatic infection in patients infected with *Trypanosoma gambiae* (Cooper et al., 2017). Moreover, similar to the link between sickle cell anemia and human resistance to malaria, two copies of these variants lead to an increased risk of a variety of kidney diseases, primarily glomerular diseases (Freedman et al., 2010; Genovese et al., 2010; Kasembeli et al., 2015). These include HIV and hypertension-related nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, lupus nephritis, membranous nephropathy, and more recently, Covid-19-related renal failure (Tzur et al., 2010; Kopp et al., 2011; Papeta et al., 2011; Larsen et al., 2014; Velez et al., 2020). Common features of these diseases include proteinuria and rapidly progressive nephropathy, which often leads to end-stage renal disease (Wiggins 2007) (Evolution of Renal-Disease Factor APOL1 Results in Cis and Trans Orientations at the Endoplasmic Reticulum That Both Show Cytotoxic Effects, 2021).
[0006] The wild-type APOL1 allele is sometimes referred to as the non-risk allele, or "G0," but it actually comprises many different protein-coding sequences, or "haplotypes" (Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) risk variant toxicity depends on the haplotype background, 2019). Experimental differences exist in the behavior of wild-type G0 compared to risk variants G1 and G2. Herbert Lannon et al. observed that human APOL variants contain multiple coding variants organized into different haplotypes, including at least eight relatively common non-risk haplotypes with different coding sequences. There is no typical "wild-type" APOL1; instead, there are many non-risk haplotypes that differ from each other by at least one amino acid, and sometimes several. The two risk variants G1 (S342G and I384M, two amino acid substitutions) almost always occur together, and G2 (del388-9, two amino acid deletions) are inherited within a specific human haplotype background. Both of these two alleles in the APOL1 gene lead to alterations in the apolipoprotein-L1 protein sequence, resulting in a significantly increased risk of kidney disease in a recessive model of risk inheritance. In the currently used nomenclature, G1 is the first of these alleles, referring to a pair of coding polymorphisms (or cSNPs, p.S342 and p.I384M) that are almost always inherited together; G2 is the second disease-associated APOL1 allele, referring to a six-nucleotide deletion that results in the loss of two amino acid frames (p.N388 and p.Y389) (APOL1 and APOL1-Associated Kidney Disease: A Common Disease, an Unusual Disease Gene – Proceedings of the Henry Shavelle Professorship, 2022). Alleles lacking G1 or G2 can also be called G0, which is sometimes considered preferable to the term "wild type." Some research groups have named G3 another specific APOL1 haplotype that lacks the G1 or G2 defined variant—however, this allele is not associated with kidney disease.
[0007] In summary, APOL1 C-terminal variants G1 and G2 are associated with kidney disease, particularly chronic renal failure. Expression of these variants induces podocyte foot process loss, leading to the loss of these cells from the glomeruli and impairing renal blood filtration activity. A characteristic feature of G1 / G2-related diseases is the close correlation between glomerular pathology and type I IFN inflammatory responses (e.g., inflammatory responses induced by viral infections) (The Mechanism of Kidney Disease Due to APOL1 Risk Variants, 2020). Therefore, there is a clinical need for treatments targeting kidney diseases caused by APOLs. Summary of the Invention
