Description

Imidazole derivative and gene delivery system thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmacy and biological materials, relates to an imidazole derivative and a gene delivery system thereof, and particularly relates to 2-aminoimidazole with high transfection efficiency and good biocompatibility and a gene delivery system thereof.
Background
Gene therapy is to introduce a target gene into a specific tissue cell of a patient through a vector for expression so as to correct or improve defects generated by a pathogenic gene, so that the gene level treatment of some chronic diseases becomes possible. The current gene-carrying vectors are mainly divided into two categories: viral vectors and non-viral vectors. The virus vector makes full use of the infectivity and the parasitism of virus evolution, has high transfection efficiency, and adopts the virus vector in over 70 percent of the current clinical research of gene therapy. However, viral vectors have the disadvantages of complex preparation, small gene capacity, high immunogenicity, potential tumorigenicity, etc., and the wide application thereof is limited. Compared with viral vectors, non-viral vectors have the advantages of controllable quality, high carrying capacity, low immunogenicity and the like, and are favored. However, non-viral vectors have the fatal disadvantage of low transfection efficiency, which limits their clinical application. Therefore, the research for improving the gene transfection efficiency of the non-viral vector is very important.
The ideal non-viral vector needs to overcome the following physiological barriers during gene delivery: (1) The blood barrier protects DNA to effectively avoid phagocytosis of reticuloendothelial system and degradation of nuclease in blood; (2) The cellular barrier carries DNA across the negatively charged amphiphilic cell membrane into the cell; (3) Intracellular transport barriers assist DNA in achieving endosome/lysosome escape, crossing the nuclear membrane, and DNA transfection, with each physiological barrier directly affecting the transfection efficiency of DNA.
Functional molecule modification is one of strategies for overcoming the physiological barriers, and hydrophobic molecules, targeting molecules, membrane penetrating peptides, imidazolyl, guanidino, fusion proteins, nuclear localization signal peptides and the like are modified on the existing non-viral vectors so as to enhance the capacities of DNA compression, DNA carrying in cells, endosome/lysosome escape, nuclear membrane crossing and the like. Among the functional molecules, both the imidazolyl group and the guanidinyl group are derived from natural amino acids, and the functions of both are emphasized in the gene delivery system. The imidazolyl comes from histidine, has strong buffering capacity in the pH range of the endosome, and is favorable for assisting DNA in realizing endosome escape according to a proton sponge effect. The guanidino group is derived from arginine and has the ability to compress DNA, cross cell and nuclear membranes, due to its ability to form bidentate hydrogen bonds with phosphate groups on DNA and biological membranes.
The invention aims to provide a functional molecule which simultaneously compresses DNA, carries the DNA to enter cells, escapes from endosomes/lysosomes and spans nuclear membranes, and is modified on a cationic material to construct a novel non-viral vector so as to achieve the purpose of improving the gene transfection efficiency.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a functional molecule which has the capabilities of compressing DNA, carrying the DNA into cells, escaping from endosomes/lysosomes and crossing nuclear membranes, in particular to an imidazole derivative with high transfection efficiency and good biocompatibility and a gene delivery system thereof.
Based on the structure-activity relationship of imidazolyl and guanidino, the invention designs a functional molecule-2-aminoimidazole for gene delivery, and the functional molecule is connected with a cationic material through a chemical bond to obtain a novel non-viral vector, which is named as R-AM and has the following structure:
Figure BDA0001417515450000021
structural formula of R-AM
Wherein AM represents 2-aminoimidazole; r represents a cationic material which can be polyethyleneimine, polyamide-amine, chitosan, polycation amino acid, polypropylene imine, polyurethane, polycarbonate, polyphosphate, protamine, spermine, cationic liposome and the like; x represents a connecting group which can be a carbon-nitrogen bond, an amido bond, a carbonate bond, a phosphate bond, urea, thiourea, amidine and the like. n represents a modification ratio.
In the present invention, R-AM is capable of forming a gene complex with a reporter gene or a therapeutic gene, wherein the gene may be DNA, siRNA, mRNA, shRNA, antisense nucleotide, or the like. The buffering capacity of R-AM in the pH range of lysosomes is beneficial to carrying genes to realize lysosome escape. R-AM has good gene compression, cellular uptake and nuclear membrane spanning ability, high gene transfection efficiency and good biocompatibility.
Specifically, the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
obtaining 2-N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl- (4 formyl) -1H imidazole according to a synthetic route shown in the figure, and obtaining G2-AM after removing a protecting group through the reaction of the amino of 2 generation (G2) of polyamide-amine and the aldehyde group of the compound; as a control, the same reaction links imidazole-4-carbaldehyde and G2 to give G2-M. Acid-base titration experiments, micro-fluorescence methods, flow cytometry and other experiments show that G2-AM has good gene compression, cell uptake, endosome/lysosome escape and nuclear membrane crossing capabilities. Cell qualitative and quantitative transfection experiments show that G2-AM has high transfection efficiency on cells such as HEK 293T, U87, heLa and the like, and has very significant difference compared with G2 and G2-M; cell pharmacodynamic experiments show that the G2-AM entrapped therapeutic gene can improve the killing effect on tumor cells.
