Description

Induce substance disease caused by treatment androgen receptor unconventionality expression is prepared of IRF8 expression Application in the drug of disease
Technical field
The invention belongs to field of medicaments, are related to inducing the substance of IRF8 expression preparing treatment androgen receptor unconventionality expression Application in the drug of associated diseases.
Background technology
In American-European countries, prostate cancer is that incidence, the death rate ranked second the common male malignancy of position, China forefront Though the incidence of gland cancer is less than western countries, become with the aging of living-pattern preservation and population in what is significantly increased Gesture.Expect the year two thousand twenty, the incidence of prostate cancer will be up to 40/,100,000, year new cases up to 350,000, the incidence with liver cancer Quite.
Initial prostate cancer has hormonal dependent, and at that time, endocrine therapy is sensitive, and the symptom of prostate cancer improves, Disease process delays, but in the case where castration selects pressure, generally can become castration-resistant prostate cancer after 12-18 months (Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer, CRPC).In recent years, the drug for having treatment CRPC successively comes out, Such as androgen antagonist abiraterone, androgen receptor (Androgen receptor, AR) antagonist Bicalutamide (Bicalutamide, Bic), the miscellaneous Shandong amine (Enzalutamide, Enz) of grace etc. is effective to CRPC, but all exists easily drug resistant Problem.The generation of CRPC and drug resistance are the underlying cause of death of patients with prostate cancer and the Major Difficulties of current prostate cancer therapy And research direction.
Androgen receptor belongs to one kind of nuclear receptor superfamily, in the presence of respective ligand, plays transcription factor, The correct distribution of prostate epithelial cell is instructed, in the development of normal prostata tissue, androgen receptor is essential Factor, but its overexpression can then lead to hyperblastosis, and negatively correlated with the differentiation by stages of prostate cancer.Animal model table Bright prostate epithelial cell AR overexpressions can cause proliferation and vicious transformation, in patients with prostate cancer, AR high expression and clinic Case malignant progression and recurrence-free survival rate reduce closely related.AR widely participates in the growth of prostatic cell, differentiation and Function simultaneously participates in the starting and development of prostate cancer, is most important signal needed for prostate cancer growth.It is in addition, different Normal AR activity increases are also considered as the key of CRPC development, and CRPC is often abnormal with AR signal paths, AR expression and AR associations The generation and development of CRPC is taken part in abnormal, AR signal paths imbalance of developed by molecule etc..In addition, it is also targeting that AR activity is abnormal The drug resistant major reasons of CRPC medicines Enz of AR.
According to the age of patient and disease process, the treatment means of prostate cancer mainly include operation, castration, radiotherapy and change It treats.Early prostate cancer has androgen-dependent, and after endocrine therapy, the symptom of prostate cancer improves, disease process prolongs It is slow, but generally can become CRPC by 12-18 months.In recent years, the drug for having treatment CRPC successively comes out, as androgen is short of money Anti-agent abiraterone, androgen receptor antagonists Bicalutamide, the miscellaneous Shandong amine of grace etc. are effective to CRPC, but all exist easily drug resistant Problem.The generation of CRPC and drug resistance are the underlying cause of death of patients with prostate cancer and the Major Difficulties of current prostate cancer therapy And research direction.
The miscellaneous Shandong amine of grace (also known as MDV3100) be the oral administration biaavailability of a new generation it is high directly act on androgen receptor The antiandrogen drug of body, mainly by the way that the combination of testosterone and androgen receptor, the core of inhibition androgen receptor is inhibited to shift, press down Androgen receptor processed is combined with DNA to play a role simultaneously without approach such as agonist effects, so as to improve CRPC patient (including mostly western He match chemotherapy failure patient) Overall survival and DFS phase.Compared with previous antiandrogen drug (such as than card Shandong Amine), its affinity with androgen receptor can be significantly increased.The miscellaneous Shandong amine of grace by the ligand binding domain of competitive binding AR, The combination of testosterone, protona and AR are blocked, while androgen receptor core is inhibited to shift, inhibits what AR was combined with target gene DNA Process inhibits the proliferation of prostatic cell, promotes its apoptosis, and then play antitumor activity.If so androgen receptor sheet Body changes, and changes including AR protein actives, point mutation, and Shear criteria etc. can lead to the miscellaneous drug resistant generation of Shandong amine of grace. AR is overexpressed in androgen independence transplantable tumor, prostate gland cancer cell can be made to reduce Androgen-sensitive, and further Prostate transplantable tumor is promoted to be transformed into androgen independence pattern from Androgen-dependent pattern, this just highlights AR amplifications and mistake In Androgen deprivation therapy and the treatment of two generations for there is drug resistant potential mechanism in expression.
IRF8, also referred to as interferon consensus sequence binding protein (Interferon consensus sequence- Binding protein, ICSBP), belong to interferon regulatory factor (Interferon regulatory factor, IRF) family Race's a member.The transcription factor that IRF has found when being a kind of research I type IFN systems, expression are regulated and controled, and feedback regulation by IFN IFN signal paths, in IFN transcriptional controls, the IFN congenital immunity participated in and adaptive immunity, cytokine signaling, thin Play an important roll in born of the same parents' multiplication regulatory.IRF families share 9 members (IRF1-9), the multiple members of IRF families (IRF1, IRF3, IRF4, IRF5, IRF7, IRF8) pattern recognition receptors triggering innate immune response in function demonstrate,proved It is real.The important function of IRF family members IRF1, IRF2, IRF4, IRF8 in immunocyte growth course also obtain significantly into Exhibition.More and more research concern IRF family members IRF1, IRF2, IRF3, IRF5, IRF6, IRF8 are in blood and epithelium in recent years Function in growth, survival and the tumour generation of cell, wherein IRF1, IRF2, IRF3, IRF5, IRF6 are in blood and solid tumor In function obtained the confirmation of a large number of researchers.IRF8 expression deletions in immunocyte can then cause acute myelocytic white Blood disease (Acute myeloid leukemia, AML) and chronic granulocytic leukemia (Chronic myelocytic Leukemia, CML) etc. blood tumors disease generation, show in blood tumor, IRF8 possibly as a kind of leukaemia inhibit base Cause, inducing tumor suppressor genes (Tumor suppressor gene, TSG) and apoptogene transcription inhibit oncogene and resist to wither The expression such as gene Bcl-xl, Bcl-2 is died so as to play its tumor suppression function.But IRF8 only has several articles at present It reports its function in epithelial cell, leads to its protein in most tumours including IRF8 promoter hypermethylations All it is low expression/do not express (human protein Atlas, http in tissue://www.proteinatlas.org).But IRF8 has not been reported in the expression of prostate cancer and function.

2.1 DHT can raise IRF8 expression
Ligand of the androgen as AR is played in the prostate carcinoma cell growth and vicious transformation that are mediated in AR to closing weight The effect wanted.Generally existing Androgen-AR signal path abnormal activations during prostate cancer occurrence and development.We have found that with The increase of prostate cancer pathological grading, the expression quantity of IRF8 rises, and IRF8 expression expresses positive correlation with AR.These researchs carry Show us, there are certain between IRF8 and AR to contact.Research shows that have in prostatic cell a group ISG albumen at the same time as Androgen stimulated gene is regulated and controled by androgen.Whether we detect the expression of IRF8 by AR signal paths in the present embodiment Adjusting.AR positive prostate cancer cells strain LNCaP pre-process rs, Zhi Houyong for 24 hours with 5% carbon adsorption change of serum C-FBS bed boards The 10nM DHT stimulations IRF8 expression of rs cellular immunofluorescences detection for 24 hours, ethyl alcohol is as solvent control group.Immunostaining results are found In the case of no DHT exists, IRF8 has faint expression (Fig. 3 A-DHT), DHT stimulation activation AR in LNCaP cell cytosols and karyon After signal path, IRF8 expression significantly up-regulation (Fig. 3 A+DHT) in endochylema karyon.Simultaneously LNCaP is stimulated with various concentration DHT Cell rs for 24 hours extracts RNA and albumen, respectively with Real-time PCR and WB detection IRF8 expression, it is found that DHT can dose-dependant Property the up-regulation mRNA level in-site (Fig. 3 B) of IRF8 and protein expression (Fig. 3 C).In another AR positive prostate cancer cells strain DHT activation AR can also raise the expression (Fig. 3 D) of IRF8 in 22RV1.During prostate cancer vicious transformation, low-level androgen In the case of, growth factor I GF-1, EGF and cell factor IL-6 etc. can alternative activation AR promotion prostate gland cancer cell androgens Dependent/non-dependent is grown.Thus we guess whether alternative activation AR can equally raise the expression of IRF8It is interesting that AR bypasses swash Factor IGF-1 (Fig. 3 E) living, EGF (Fig. 3 F) can lower the expression of IRF8, and without time dependence;IL-6 to the expression of IRF8 then It does not make significant difference (Fig. 3 G).These results prompting IRF8 may be a kind of androgen-induced gene.

In early-stage study, it has been found that LNCaP stabilization strike low IRF8 cell strains LNCaP-shIRF8 in nude mouse into Efflux velocity is accelerated, and experimental endpoints knurl weight significantly increases, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (Proliferating cell in tumor tissue Nuclear antigen, PCNA) immunostaining is remarkably reinforced, show IRF8 can inhibit prostate gland cancer cell proliferation and One-tenth knurl ability in nude mouse.Above we have found that external IRF8 inhibits prostate gland cancer cell proliferative capacity and the expression status of AR It is related, then we, which think further to investigate, reduces whether androgen levels in Mice Body still can maintain to strike the cell strain of low IRF8 One-tenth knurl ability in nude mouse.4-6 week old mouse operation excision mouse bilateral testes and epididymis reduce internal androgen levels, Again in castrating mouse abdomen back side inoculation 1 × 107LNCaP-shIRF8 cells and its negative control LNCaP-shNC, monitor its into Efflux velocity.The results show that under the conditions of castration, after being inoculated with 10 days, two groups of tumor mass are grown, and it is apparent to strike low IRF8 compositions efflux velocity Accelerate, inoculation strikes knurl product in low IRF8 groups and reaches 1368 ± 188.1mm after 3 weeks3, n=9, and negative control group knurl product is then For 688 ± 90.45mm3, n=9, only strike low group 1/2, two groups of tumour growths, that is, significant difference (Fig. 7 A).Its postscript Two groups of tumor-bearing mice survival states are recorded, observe the difference of two groups of tumor-bearing mice Overall survivals, IRF8 strikes low rear tumor-bearing mice Survival condition is deteriorated, and Overall survival is substantially less than negative control group (Fig. 7 B, P=0.0326).The above result shows that it strikes low One-tenth knurl ability enhancing is unrelated with internal androgen levels in prostate gland cancer cell body caused by IRF8 expression.
4.3 strike low IRF8 enhancing LNCaP in NOD-SCID Mice Bodies into knurl
Literature research shows that IRF8 is mainly expressed in immunocyte and influenced the function of immunocyte, and enhancing macrophage is thin The immune functions such as born of the same parents, DC cells.Balb/c nude mices are thymus gland deficient mice, T cell malfunction, but still have the DC thin in vivo The expression such as born of the same parents, NK cells, and non-fully immunodeficient mouse strike for verification LNCaP and subtract tumour cell caused by IRF8 into knurl Speed is accelerated non-to reduce and then influence caused by immune function reduces, therefore we are in immune system because tumour cell IRF8 is expressed More the NOD-SCID mouse abdomens back side inoculation shNC cells of defect and shIRF8 cells, tumor growth speed.As a result it sends out Existing LNCaP cells strike subtract IRF8 after, accelerate (Fig. 8 A) into efflux velocity, experimental endpoints knurl weight has significant difference (Fig. 8 B), into The characteristic of knurl ability enhancing still exists in the Mice Body of complete immune deficiency.The above result shows that IRF8 can directly inhibit The proliferation of tumour cell and internal one-tenth knurl ability.
In conclusion it is all can induce IRF8 expression substance can directly inhibit prostate tumor cells proliferation and in vivo into Knurl ability.
LNCaP-shIRF8 reduces Enz sensibility in 5 in vitro test of embodiment
5.1 LNCaP-shIRF8 reduce various concentration Enz sensibility
The miscellaneous Shandong amine of grace blocks testosterone, protona to combine, while inhibit androgen receptor consideration convey by competitive binding LBD Record, the process combined with DNA.So if AR activity changes, including protein expression and activity change etc., it can lead to grace The miscellaneous drug resistant generation of Shandong amine.Whether the present embodiment research IRF8 can influence sensibility of the prostate gland cancer cell to Enz.
Stablized first using IRF8 and knock out cell LNCaP-shIRF8 (IRF8 strikes inefficient height), give Enz various concentrations Act on 48hrs-72hrs, CCK8 detection cell viabilities.The results show that under same concentrations, IRF8 strikes low cell viability and is significantly higher than Unloaded control group LNCaP-shNC (Fig. 9 A-B).Equally, increase cell inoculation amount, 6 orifice plate inoculating cells give 5 μM and 10 μM Enz acts on 72hrs, directly observes cell survival under microscope, LNCaP-shNC is several on culture plate under 5 μM of Enz concentration Without attached cell, and LNCaP-shIRF8 groups are under (10 μM) effects of higher concentration Enz, and cytochrome oxidase isozymes are good in culture plate, Light transmittance is high, and almost without dead cell, cell density is slightly below DMSO control groups (Fig. 9 C).
5.2 IRF8 adjust 3 activity of caspase caused by Enz
The miscellaneous Shandong amine of grace can be combined with DNA, inducing cell apoptosis[7].When showing 5 μM of Enz effect 48hrs above, cell is lived Power 80% or so, cell density reduce, only cell inhibitory effect;When acting on 72hrs, cell viability 70% or so has occurred Dead cell.Prostate gland cancer cell thus is handled using 5 μM of Enz, detection caspase 3 is active after 72hrs.Figure 10 A show, Enz Can raise the activity of caspase 3, IRF8 strike it is low after, compared to solvent control group, under Enz processing, the activity of caspase 3, which has no, to be changed Become.Equally, 48hrs are handled with 5 μM of Enz after LNCaP overexpressions IRF8,48hrs.When Figure 10 B are shown, when only IRF8 is overexpressed 3 activity of caspase is had no effect on, 3 activity of IRF8 groups caspase significantly up-regulation under Enz processing, and vector groups caspase 3 without significant changes.
Clone formation and Proliferation Ability caused by 5.3 LNCaP-shIRF8 antagonisms Enz
The present embodiment research IRF8 strikes the influence of cell Proliferation under the low long term to Enz, is internal long-term administration curative effect Test basis is provided.Low cell strain is struck with LNCaP-shNC cells and two kinds of IRF8, violet staining calculates clonal expansion and inhibits Rate.Under 10 μM of Enz processing, LNCaP-shNC group Clone formations significantly reduce, and LNCaP-shIRF8 groups Clone formation also has centainly The reduction (Figure 11 A) of degree.IPP calculates clone's number, solvent control group, and IRF8 strikes the low clone for dramatically increasing LNCaP cells It is formed;Under Enz processing, IRF8, which strikes low caused Clone formation, increases characteristic still in the presence of (Figure 11 B).Under Enz processing, LNCaP-shNC group Clone formations inhibiting rate is 48%, and the Clone formation inhibiting rate that IRF8 strikes low group of two cell strains is respectively 33.5%, 22.5%, there is significant difference (Figure 11 C) with LNCaP-shNC groups.Equally, each group cell is detected using 96 orifice plates Cell Proliferation in the case where 10 μM of Enz are handled.Consistent with result above, under Enz processing, after 3 days, LNCaP-shNC cells increase It grows and is significantly inhibited, and LNCaP-shIRF8 groups, compared to solvent control group, Enz processing has no significantly the proliferation of cell Property influence (Figure 11 D).These results are similar with the result of short-term Enz processing, illustrate to strike low IRF8, under long-term Enz processing With handled in short term in Enz under, also play resist Enz function.
LNCaP-shIRF8 reduces Enz sensibility in 6 experiment in vivo of embodiment
Operation excision bilateral testes and epididymis Balb/c nude mice abdomen back sides are seeded in using LNCaP, build LNCaP-CRPC Nude mice model.Further verification IRF8 strikes the low influence to Enz sensibility in vivo.The results show that LNCaP-shNC groups, After 10mg/kg/d Enz are acted on 25 days, Enz processing groups tumor growth curve has significant difference with solvent control group; IRF8 strike it is low after, until experimental endpoints, Enz processing groups tumor growth curve i.e. with solvent control group there was no significant difference (figure 12A).Experimental endpoints, Enz processing group knurl product final with solvent control group has significant difference in LNCaP-shNC models, Single gross tumor volume growth rate significantly reduces under Enz processing, and single under the final knurl product of LNCaP-shIRF8 groups and Enz processing Gross tumor volume growth rate does not have significant changes (Figure 12 B-C) with solvent control group.Equally, Figure 12 D show experimental endpoints Enz processing group final knurl weight similary with solvent control group also has significant difference in LNCaP-shNC models, and tumour inhibiting rate is about 41.1%, and LNCaP-shIRF8 groups are then without influence.

We have recruited 3 high-risk patients with prostate cancer, enter a group condition:First visit PSA>150ng/Ml, Gleason >=9 (4+5 or 5+4), multiple Bone tumour or transfer may.Knowing and meeting ethics, carrying out respectively male sharp to greatest extent Element blocks endocrine therapy (maximal androgen blokade, MAB) or IFN α to combine in endocrine therapy to greatest extent Secretion treatment (IFN α+MAB), concrete scheme is:
(1) endocrine therapy endocrine therapy (MAB) to greatest extent:Goserelin acetate sustained-release implant (Nuo Lei get) 3.6mg (Astrazeneca AB), every 1 time on the 28th, Bicalutamide (Kang Shi get) 50mg, one time a day.
(2) endocrine therapy endocrine therapy+IFN α 2a parenteral solution (trade names to greatest extent:Recomvinated Interferon α-2a):Endocrine is treated Method is same as above, 3,000,000 IU of IFN α 2a, monthly 10 times.
Continued treatment 6 months or more, it is horizontal monthly to detect PSA, PSA>0.2ng/mL shows biochemical recurrence.During biochemistry recurrence Group progress chemotherapy or an other treatment are moved back according to patient requests.
The up-regulation IRF8 expression of 7.3 IFN αs, lowers AR expression
Various concentration IFN α handles AR positive prostate cancer cells LNCaP and 22RV1, and WB detects IRF8 and AR after rs for 24 hours Protein level, the correlation of the lower IRF8 and AR protein expressions of verification IFN α processing.Figure 13 A show, IFN α can be on dose dependent The expression of IRF8 in prostate gland cancer cell LNCaP and 22RV1 is adjusted, while lowers the protein level of AR.Figure 13 B show that AR is positive male The insensitive Prostatic cancer cell lines 22RV1 of hormone can promote AR to IRF8 promoter region ISRE-like sites under IFN α processing Combination, and then promote IRF8 expression.Various concentration IFN α is awarded simultaneously, AR half-life period significantly reduces (Figure 13 C), and can quilt Protease inhibitors MG132 blocks (Figure 13 D), and enhances the ubiquitination of AR.These results illustrate IFN α in prostate gland cancer cell Adjustable IRF8, promotes the ubiquitination of AR to degrade.IFN α delays prostate gland cancer cell IRF8 expression drops under the conditions of being used as castration Low intervening measure.
7.4 IFN αs enhance ADT curative effects
In in vitro test, LNCaP and 22RV1 are respectively with (0,5,10,20,40,80,100) μm ENZ joints 1000IU/ml After IFN α or various concentration IFN α (0,100,500,1000,2000,5000,10000IU/ml) handle 96h and 48h respectively, profit Cell viability is detected with CCK8 methods (see 3.2CCK8 methods).The results show that IFN α can significantly increase prostate gland cancer cell LNCaP and 22RV1 is applied alone IFN α to have no significant cytotoxicity (Figure 14 B) sensibility (Figure 14 A) of Enz.
To exclude influence of the IFN α to immune system, exempted from completely using LNCaP-shNC and LNCaP-shIRF8 cell strains LNCaP-CRPC models are built in epidemic disease deficient mice NOD-SCID (method is shown in 7.1.2).Enz (10mg/kg), IFN α are awarded respectively (1.5×107IU/kg) or Enz (10mg/kg) combines IFN α (1.5 × 107IU/kg), tumor recurrence and growth curve are detected.Knot Fruit shows that Enz joint IFN α group tumour growths significantly reduce (Figure 14 C), and experimental endpoints Enz combines IFN α group knurl weight with being applied alone Enz has significant difference, tumor control rate 86.3, higher than being applied alone the 62.1% of Enz groups;And IFN α joint Enz group tumours Recurrence rate is 58.3%, far below 90.9% (Figure 14 D) of Enz groups is applied alone, and strikes low each treatment group tumors recurrences of IRF8 and reaches 100%, tumour growth and knurl weight and indifference (Figure 14 C-F), synergistic effect disappear.These results indicate that during castration, connection IFN α is closed, induction prostate cancer expression IRF8 can enhance the sensibility of Enz.
According to the above results, we have recruited 3 high-risk patients with prostate cancer, in informed ethics, respectively into Endocrine therapy endocrine therapy and IFN α combine endocrine therapy endocrine therapy to greatest extent to row to greatest extent.Concrete scheme See 7.2 methods of this chapter.As a result (Figure 15) is shown:For 2 patients to greatest extent after endocrine therapy endocrine therapy, PSA is horizontal Persistently higher than 0.2ng/mL, curative effect is poor, and PSA levels significantly rebound after 6 months;2 patients are after 6 months using other treatments Method exits experiment.IFN α joint endocrinotherapy group recruits two patients altogether, and an example patient is during the treatment up to 11 months Adhere to combining endocrinotherapy using IFN α, PSA persistent levels are maintained at biochemical recurrence line (0.2ng/mL) hereinafter, effect is shown It writes.After 3 months, PSA is gradually reduced another patient's continued treatment.These results indicate that IFN α can combine endocrinotherapy, show Write enhancing prostate cancer clinical treatment curative effect.
8 IRF8 of embodiment expresses reduction in clinical liver cancer patient;Increase IRF8 expression and can inhibit it into knurl characteristic;IFN α induction IRF8 expression, inhibits AR expression.
TCGA database analysis IRF8 is expressed in liver cancer patient is substantially less than its expression (figure in normal liver tissue 16A).IRF8 expression is substantially less than its expression (figure in cancer beside organism in Showed by immune group result clinic liver cancer patient 16B).Epidemiological study shows male's liver cancer occurred frequently, may be related with the abnormal raisings of androgen receptor AR.Diethylnitrosamine Rat liver cancer can be caused, WB testing results show that IRF8 expression reduces in the rat liver cancer model cancerous tissue that DEN is induced, AR raisings (Figure 16 C).TCGA and GEO database analysis shows that IRF8 expression is high in liver cancer patient, and liver cancer patient Overall survival is notable Low liver cancer patient Overall survival (Figure 16 D-E) is expressed higher than IRF8.Thus we guess, IRF8 is in liver cancer patient for raising In expression, if it can be reduced into knurl characteristic
After murine hepatocarcinoma cell Hep1-6 is instantaneously overexpressed IRF8, cell Proliferation, Clone formation is significantly suppressed (figure 17A-C).Simultaneously using slow-virus transfection, after Hep1-6 stablizes overexpression IRF8, cell Proliferation, cut migrates and balling-up energy Power is suppressed, and further confirms raising IRF8 expression, can inhibit liver cancer cells into knurl characteristic (Figure 17 D-F).And liver cancer After cell Bel7404 and HepG2 are overexpressed IRF8, WB detections show that AR expression gradient dependences reduce (Figure 18 A-B).Mouse source liver After cancer cell Hep1-6 stablizes overexpression IRF8 (band His labels), AR expression significantly reduces (Figure 18 C), further confirms liver cancer IRF8 can reduce AR expression in cell.In clinical treatment, IFN α is mainly used for the infection of liver cancer patient anti-hepatitis virus.Ours grinds Study carefully the results show that various concentration IFN α processing liver cancer cells Bel7404 and HepG2 for 24 hours after, the raising of IRF8 gradients dependence, and AR gradients dependence reduces (Figure 18 D-E).Thus, in liver cancer patient, IFN α can raise IRF8 expression by AR/IRF8 axis, Liver cancer cells grade malignancy is reduced, while reduces AR expression, significantly increases liver cancer patient prognosis.
