Abstract
Description
Application of heparin trisaccharide compounds in the preparation of drugs for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
[0001] This application claims priority to an earlier application filed on December 31, 2024, with patent application number 202411975922.4, entitled "Use of a heparin trisaccharide compound in the preparation of a medicament for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease". The entire contents of the earlier application are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology, specifically relating to the application of trisaccharide compounds in the preparation of drugs for the treatment or prevention of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Background Technology
[0003] Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease characterized by airflow limitation, which is usually progressive and associated with abnormalities in the airways and alveoli. It is primarily caused by long-term inhalation of harmful particles or gases, most commonly cigarette smoke, indoor or outdoor air pollution, and chronic bronchitis. The history of COPD dates back over 200 years. In 1679, Bonet first described COPD as "a large lung." In 1789, Baillie published a series of pathological illustrations of the lungs in emphysema. In 1821, Emphysema is described, and the combination of emphysema and chronic bronchitis is mentioned. COPD is a leading cause of death worldwide, often referred to as the "silent killer" due to its insidious onset. Treatment of COPD faces numerous challenges and dilemmas. Drug therapy primarily relies on bronchodilators, which can improve symptoms and quality of life and prevent acute exacerbations to some extent. However, anti-inflammatory treatment targeting the underlying cause of the disease remains unresolved, especially given the less-than-ideal efficacy of inhaled corticosteroids, necessitating the development of new drugs and treatment methods.

[0063] COPD is a heterogeneous lung condition characterized by the presence of chronic and poorly reversible persistent (often progressive) airflow obstruction associated with an abnormal inflammatory response. Its main clinical symptoms are cough, sputum production, and shortness of breath or difficulty breathing when walking or increasing activity; these symptoms tend to worsen over the years.
[0064] According to the GOLD criteria (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease), a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) to forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio < 0.7 after inhaling a bronchodilator indicates persistent airflow limitation and can be diagnosed as COPD. The severity of airflow limitation is assessed based on the percentage of predicted FEV1, categorized into four levels: Mild (GOLD 1): FEV1 ≥ 80% of predicted value. Patients at this stage are usually asymptomatic or experience only mild shortness of breath during strenuous exercise; Moderate (GOLD 2): 50% ≤ FEV1 < 80% of predicted value. Patients experience progressively worsening shortness of breath, especially during daily activities; Severe (GOLD 3): 30% ≤ FEV1 < 50% of predicted value. Patients experience exacerbated shortness of breath, significant limitation of daily activities, and may experience acute exacerbations; Very Severe (GOLD 4): FEV1 < 30% of predicted value, or accompanied by symptoms of chronic respiratory failure. Patients at this stage experience a severe decline in quality of life and may require long-term oxygen therapy.
[0065] COPD can be classified according to its etiology as follows: genetically determined COPD (e.g., α1 antitrypsin deficiency), COPD caused by lung developmental abnormalities, environmental COPD (including smoking-related COPD, COPD related to exposure to biological dyes and pollution), and infection-related COPD (e.g., tuberculosis-related COPD, childhood infection, COPD with chronic bronchitis, etc.).

[0097] 2. Preparation method of fully protected trisaccharide intermediate 1-1
[0098] The synthesized monosaccharide intermediate 3-1, in its mixed configuration, can be used directly in the next reaction without separation. Trichloroacetylimine ester is a relatively common glycosyl donor, typically reacting under mild conditions with high yields. Monosaccharide intermediate 3-1 is glycosylated and coupled with disaccharide intermediate 4-1 synthesized according to known literature methods, yielding a fully protected trisaccharide 1-1 in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid.
[0099] Monosaccharide intermediate 3-1 (2.83 g, 502.24 mmol) and glycosyl acceptor disaccharide intermediate 4-1 (2.74 g, 324.23 mmol) were dissolved in redistilled DCM and then added to a solution containing pre-activated DCM. In a reaction flask containing molecular sieves, the mixture was continuously stirred at room temperature for 30 min to equilibrate the reaction. After the reaction system temperature was lowered to -20℃, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (26.53 μL, 0.33 mmol) was slowly added dropwise. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After the reaction was complete, the molecular sieves were removed by silica gel filtration. The resulting filtrate was concentrated and purified by direct silica gel column chromatography (PE / EA = 5:1) to obtain the fully protected trisaccharide intermediate 1-1 (3.42 g, 87%).

[0103] 3. Preparation method of trisaccharide intermediate III-1
[0104] The fully protected trisaccharide 1-1 was subjected to the combined action of LiOH, H2O2 and NaOH to simultaneously remove Ac, Bz and methyl ester to obtain trihydroxy compound I-1; heating under the action of SO3·NMe3 gave the intermediate compound II-1 after O-sulfonation; benzyl and Cbz were removed by catalytic hydrogenation, and the azide was reduced to generate an amino group to obtain diamino compound III-1.
[0105] The fully protected trisaccharide compound 1-1 (342.62 mg, 0.26 mmol) was dissolved in 5.00 mL of tetrahydrofuran. Then, 6.23 mL of 1.25 N LiOH solution and 13.13 mL of 30% H₂O₂ solution were added dropwise at room temperature. After stirring for 12 hours, 14.34 mL of methanol and 7.82 mL of 6 N NaOH solution were added, and stirring continued for at least 12 hours. After the reaction was confirmed to be complete by TLC, the pH was adjusted to 2 with 4 N hydrochloric acid under ice-water bath conditions. The reaction solution was then extracted three times with DCM and concentrated under reduced pressure, followed by silica gel column chromatography (DCM:MeOH = 15:1) to obtain compound I-1 (258.0 mg, 93%). High-performance liquid chromatography analysis of intermediate I-1 revealed only a single peak, indicating its high purity. Under argon protection, intermediate I-1 (258.02 mg, 0.24 mmol) and SO3·NMe3 (897.62 mg, 5.33 mmol) were dissolved in 3 mL of anhydrous DMF. The reaction system was heated to 65 °C and stirred continuously for at least 12 h. The reaction solution was taken and the degree of reaction was monitored by high performance liquid chromatography. The reaction was compared with the peak time of compound I-1. When the newly generated peak had a shorter retention time and was a single peak, the reaction was considered complete. After heating was stopped, the reaction system was allowed to rise naturally to room temperature. The reaction solution was concentrated and purified by Sephadex LH-20 gel column chromatography to obtain intermediate II-1 (304.13 mg, 93%). Intermediate II-1 (304.13 mg, 0.22 mmol) was dissolved in 3.00 mL of a mixed solvent of methanol, tert-butanol and water (v / v / v = 2:1:1), and palladium on carbon (50.00 mg) was added. The mixture was stirred for 24 h under a hydrogen pressure of 4 atm. After removing the palladium on carbon by filtration with filter paper, the reaction solution was concentrated to obtain intermediate III-1 (184.93 mg, 98%).

Molecular sieve (2.5001g), connected to a double-row tube, and the oil pump turned on, the strong suction force securely connects the bottle, ensuring the airtightness of the apparatus. Then, heat the reaction flask with a blowtorch, continuously shaking and tapping the flask until the molecular sieve becomes soft, smooth, and non-sticky to the walls. Close the oil pump valve, insert a magnetic stopper, plug the flask, open the oil pump valve, and continue heating with the blowtorch for 10 seconds. Fix the reaction flask on the iron stand, open the argon gas valve, and perform purging three times. After purging, turn off the oil pump; the pre-reaction preparation is complete. Dissolve 100mg of donor F-1 (0.20mmol) and 173mg of acceptor 4-1 (0.20mmol) in redistilled dichloromethane, slowly inject into the reaction flask using a syringe, turn on the stirrer, and equilibrate for 40 minutes. Anhydrous ethanol and liquid nitrogen were poured into a Dewar flask and adjusted to -40°C. The reaction flask was cooled, and after 15 minutes, 138 mg of N-iodosuccinimide (0.60 mmol) was added. A catalyst amount of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate was added using a microsyringe. The mixture was continuously cooled, and after 1 hour, the reaction was complete on TLC. Triethylamine was added to quench the reaction, the argon gas was turned off, and post-processing was performed. The mixture was filtered through a funnel containing a section of silica gel, washed repeatedly with ethyl acetate, concentrated, and purified by column chromatography to obtain the fully protected trisaccharide compound 2 (183 mg, 69%).

[0151] Example 5: Preparation of compound TSC19
[0152] Deprotection: 90 mg of the fully protected trisaccharide 2 was dissolved in an appropriate amount of tetrahydrofuran, and 1 mL of 1.25 N LiOH solution and 2.1 mL of 30% H₂O₂ solution were added. The reaction flask was fixed on a stirrer, and after 12 h, 2.2 mL of anhydrous methanol and 1.2 mL of 4 N NaOH solution were added, and the reaction was continued for another 12 h. After observing the formation of a thin and long product spot on the TLC plate, the pH of the reaction solution was adjusted to 5–6 with 6 N HCl. Extraction was performed using a DCM and saturated NaCl solution system, and the organic phase was collected, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to dryness. Column chromatography was performed (DCM:MeOH = 15:1 → 10:1) to obtain the deprotected compound (40 mg, 58%).
[0153] Oxysulfonic acidification: Before the reaction, place the 25 mL flask and magnetic flask to be used in an oven and bake for 30 min to keep them dry. Weigh 220 mg SO3·NMe3 (1.58 mmol) according to 20 equivalents for each hydroxyl group and add it to the flask. Seal the flask tightly. Dissolve 20 mg of the deprotected trisaccharide compound (0.015 mmol) in as little anhydrous DMF as possible and add the solution dropwise to the reaction flask using a syringe. Stir the reaction continuously at 60 °C for 36 h, then evaporate the solvent. Redissolve the oily substance in methanol and perform column chromatography using a Sephadex LH-20 gel column with a 1:1 volume ratio of dichloromethane and methanol as the eluent. Collect the sugar-containing fraction, evaporate the solvent, and elute with methanol. Filter the solution through a Dowex-50-WX4-Na gel column. +The column was used to exchange the sugar component for sodium salt, and the sugar-containing component was collected and concentrated to obtain an oxosulfonated compound (24 mg, 87%).
[0154] Hydrogenation and nitrogen sulfonation: Dissolve 24 mg of the oxysulfonation compound (0.017 mmol) in 3 mL of methanol and add an equal volume of H2O. Then weigh 20 mg of palladium on carbon and place it in a reaction flask. React for 24 h in a hydrogen atmosphere at 4 atm. Filter off the palladium on carbon using an organic phase filter membrane. The solution is colorless. Dry the filtrate by rotary evaporation. NMR shows no peaks in the aromatic region. Then proceed to the next step. The hydrogenated product was dissolved in 4 mL of H₂O. 2N NaOH solution was added to adjust the pH of the reaction solution to 9–10. SO₃·Py (53 mg, 0.33 mmol) was weighed and divided into four equal portions, added to the reaction solution at 30-minute intervals. After addition, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. Throughout the addition and reaction process, the pH of the reaction solution was constantly monitored to maintain it between 9 and 10. After the reaction time was reached, the pH was neutralized to 7–8 with hydrochloric acid, followed by Sephadex G-25 gel column chromatography using H₂O as the eluent. The sugar-containing fraction was collected, and then further eluted with H₂O using a Dowex-50-WX4-Na₂O gel column chromatography. + The column was exchanged to exchange it for sodium salt, the sugar-containing component was collected, the solvent was concentrated, and the final compound TSC19 (15 mg, two-step yield 84%) was obtained.

[0157] Example 6: Therapeutic effect of CV016 / TCS19 in a mouse model of COPD
[0158] 1.1 Establishment of a mouse COPD model (LPS+CS)
[0159] Experimental groups: control group (blank group), model group, CV016 group, TSC19 group
[0160] Except for the control group, mice were placed in a self-made 60L sealed smoke chamber with a three-way valve. Except for the control group, all other groups were passively exposed to smoke once a day for one hour after administration, for 70 consecutive days. On days 1 and 15, mice were not exposed to smoke. After intraperitoneal injection of 4% sodium pentobarbital for anesthesia, mice were given 0.2 ml of 1 mg / mL lipopolysaccharide solution via tracheal infusion. Once the mice regained consciousness, they were returned to their original enclosures for continued care. During the exposure period, the weight and other data of each mouse were continuously observed and recorded. In the blank control group, 0.2 ml of physiological saline was administered via tracheal infusion after anesthesia at the corresponding lipopolysaccharide exposure time points. Except for the control group and the CS / LPS model group, which received an equal volume of distilled water, the CV016 and TSC19 groups were subcutaneously administered CV016 or TSC19 20 mg / kg once daily in the morning, starting from the day of modeling and continuing for 70 consecutive days until the day modeling was completed.
[0161] 1.2 Detection Indicators
[0162] The left lung of anesthetized mice was lavaged three times with pre-cooled phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4) three times, 0.5 ml each time. The collected fluid was centrifuged at 4°C and 1500×g for 15 min, and the supernatant was the mouse bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Then, 200 mg of mouse left lung tissue was weighed, added to 200 μL of PBS solution, and homogenized until no visible debris was found. The tissue was then centrifuged at 4°C and 10,000×g for 15 min, and the lung tissue supernatant was collected. The levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6, and I-1β in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were detected according to the ELISA kit instructions.
[0163] Tissue from the upper lobe of the right lung of unperfused mice was collected, fixed in 10% formalin solution, and then dehydrated with different concentrations of ethanol at room temperature before being embedded in paraffin. The embedded lung tissue was cut into 4 μm thick sections using a microtome. Following the procedures of the hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining kit and the Masson trichrome staining kit, the lung tissue sections were stained with H&E and Masson staining, and observed and photographed under an optical microscope.
[0164] 1.3 Experimental Results
[0165] The weight gain of mice in each group did not differ significantly during the experiment.
[0166] 1.3.1 CV016 / TCS19 can downregulate cytokine levels in mouse BALF.
[0167] To verify the effects of CV016 / TSC19 on airway inflammation in mice, we used ELISA to detect the expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of mice in the control group (Control), model group (COPD), CV016 group (COPD+CV016), and TSC19 group (COPD+TSC19). The results showed that the expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the COPD group were significantly higher than those in the Control group (P<0.05); compared with the COPD group, the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the COPD+CV016 and COPD+TSC19 groups was significantly reduced (P<0.05).
[0168] 1.3.2 CV016 / TCS19 alleviates pathological damage in lung tissue of COPD mice
[0169] As shown by H&E staining results, the control group exhibited intact bronchial structures, clear alveolar structures, and minimal surrounding inflammatory cell infiltration. The COPD group showed narrowed bronchial lumens, alveolar and lung tissue structure destruction, epithelial cell shedding, exfoliated cells within the alveolar cavities, and extensive peribronchial and perivascular inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared to the COPD group, the CV016 and TCS19 groups showed significantly reduced lung tissue structural damage, decreased bronchial mucosal edema, and reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, with the CV016 group exhibiting significantly more normalized characteristics.
[0170] 1.3.3 CV016 / TSC19 reduces increased peri-airway collagen deposition in the lung tissue of COPD mice
[0171] Airway collagen deposition induces airway obstruction, which is a pathological feature of COPD. Masson staining of mouse lung sections showed that, compared with the COPD group, the CV016 and TSC19 groups of mice had reduced collagen deposition in the airways.
