STAT3 micromolecular inhibitor and application thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to tumour medicine field, particularly relate to the active small molecular inhibitor that the transduction of a kind of basis signal designs with the tertiary structure of transcription factor 3 (STAT3).
Background technology
Signal transduction and transcription factor 3(STAT3) belong to STATs family, this family has seven member STAT1-STAT7 respectively by different genes encodings, wherein STAT1, STAT3, STAT5 very high homology.STATs family is stimulated as EGFR, IL-6, PDGF etc. by cell growth factor and tyrosine phosphorylation occurs thus mediate cell growth, differentiation, migration, the physiological functions such as apoptosis.Research shows, in prostate cancer, mammary cancer, head and neck cancer, ovarian cancer, melanoma, the STAT3 of excess phosphoric acid all can be detected, and normal epithelium cell pSTAT3 level is obviously low in myelomatosis.
STAT3 is made up of four structural domains: auxiliary DNA binding domain, DNA specific recognition territory, forms dimerisation domain (SH2), transcription activation domain, wherein in formation dimerization domain, have a Tyr phosphorylation site, this site plays keying action in STAT3 dimerisation process.As extracellular somatomedin or cytokine (EGF, IL-6, TNF) corresponding acceptor on film is stimulated to make it dimerization, activate JAK, and recruit STAT3 monomer and make it tyrosine 705 phosphorylations occur, pSTAT3 monomer enters nucleus and starts original paper with corresponding DNA by mutually identifying the SH2domain of the other side and form dimer and striding across nuclear membrane and be combined, then key protein (the Bcl)-Xl of the adjustment signal conduction in downstream is started, (Mcl-1), the transcriptional expression of cyclinD1/D2andc-Myc etc., thus regulating cell growth, propagation, differentiation, apoptosis.But STAT3 dimerization plays node effect in JAK/STAT3 signal path, and STAT3 in 1997 by as antitumor drug target spot, therefore suppression STAT3 forms dimer can contain the STAT3 apoptosis of tumor cells of excess activation potential method as promotion, thus contains the one strategy of the tumour of the STAT3 of excess activation as treatment.
At present, can be divided into following several with the inhibitor for STAT3 of report: phosphated peptide section, phosphated peptide section analogue (pTyr-Xxx-Xxx-Gln), non-phosphorylating small molecules (Stattic, STA-21, S31-201, BP-1-102), oligonucleotide (5 '-CATTTCCCGTAAATC-3 ' and3 '-GTAAAGGGCATTTAC-3 '), kinase inhibitor.But, peptide inhibitor cell permeability is poor, easy metabolism, biological utilisation rate variance, kinase inhibitor can not suppress downstream STAT3 pathway activity completely, and the micromolecular inhibitor inhibit activities of non-peptide section is limited and go up clinical medicine at present also not for STAT3, therefore, develop new optionally and there is highly active STAT3 inhibitor to have huge challenge another aspect on the one hand be also a major opportunity of capturing tumour.

The object lesson of the compound formula (3a) that the above-mentioned manufacturing process of table 2 obtains
It is active that the experiment of embodiment 3. competitiveness detects STAT3 micromolecular inhibitor
This experiment detects micromolecular compound to the avidity of STAT3 by fluorescence polarization (FP) method, by micromolecular compound competition fluorescence peptide section FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2 and STAT3 protein binding, Ac-pYLPQTV-NH2 is as robust positive control, the weak positive control of Ac-YLPQTV-NH2, Ac-pYLKTKF negative control.When STAT3 albumen and the fluorescence peptide section polarized light that fluorophor can be made to produce that be combined with each other increases, and add these peptide sections in contrast and can compete fluorescence peptide section and STAT3 protein binding, polarization value is reduced.To test STAT3 concentration used be 5uM, FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2 concentration is 1nM.Experiment grouping: negative control is STAT3 albumen and FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2; Positive control is STAT3 albumen, FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2, and the peptide section of each different activities grade; Sample sets is STAT3 albumen, FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2, and micromolecular compound.Micromolecular compound or positive peptide section are carried out gradient dilution in 96 orifice plates of corningnbs3995#, then the mixture of STAT3 albumen and FITC-pYLPQTV-NH2 is added in each hole, lucifuge, shaker mixes 3 hours until reaction reaches balance, Biotekreader is used to measure, excitation wavelength is 485nm, and wavelength of transmitted light is 525nm, reads fluorescence polarization value.
Use Graphpadprimz5 software processes fluorescence polarization value, analyzed the IC obtaining each micromolecular compound by robustfit
50value, the IC of 1-177
50for the IC of 8.972uM, 1-078
50for 16.05uM, as shown in Figure 1.
This series compound of embodiment 4. is to the growth Survival Effects of cancer cell
Tested by FP, this series compound in vitro molecular level has higher affinity to STAT3, and next whether this series compound of checking has growth inhibitory effect to the breast cancer cell of overexpression STAT3.Cellcountingkit-8 (CCK-8) is used to detect the growth effect of K series compound to DU145, cell is planted in 96 orifice plates, 10000Cells/well, add K series compound by presetting concentration after 24h, then 24h adds 10uLcck-8/well, 37 DEG C, 4h, use BioTekreader to measure the light absorption value at 450nm place, K series compound to the growth-inhibiting of DU145 as Fig. 2, although 1-078 IC in competitive assay in vitro
50for 16.05uM but its water-soluble and permeable membrane is slightly weak relative to 1-177, the IC of 1-177 and 1-078
5025.42uM, 222.5uM respectively.Therefore function below and Mechanism Study are mainly for 1-177.
Embodiment 5.WesternBlot detects 1-177 to the retarding effect of pSTAT3 in MDA-MB-468 cell
MDA-MB-468 cell after 2 hours in the process of 1-177 different concns, stimulates with IL-6 (10ng/ul), receives cell after 24 hours, then the method for westernblot and the p-STAT3 of CST company is used, STAT3, p-AKT, AKT, P-Src, Src antibody detects.As shown in Figure 3, use DMSO and 0uM respectively, the 1-177 process cell of 10uM, 30uM, after 10uM process, p-STAT3 and p-AKT obviously reduces, and after 30uM process, p-STAT3 and p-AKT band is very weak, is 0 substantially.Therefore illustrate that K116 has obvious inhibition to STAT3 phosphorylation, does not affect the kinases P-Src of STAT3 upstream simultaneously.
The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention; it should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the premise without departing from the principles of the invention; can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
