Description

Nucleic acid for inhibiting Ebola virus, pharmaceutical composition containing nucleic acid and application of pharmaceutical composition
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a siRNA, a pharmaceutical composition containing the siRNA and their uses. Specifically, the disclosure relates to a siRNA for inhibiting Ebola virus gene expression, a pharmaceutical composition containing the siRNA as an active ingredient, and applications of the siRNA and the pharmaceutical composition in preparation of medicines for preventing and/or treating Ebola virus.
Background
Ebola virus disease is an acute hemorrhagic infection caused by Ebola virus (EBOV) of filoviridae. It is mainly transmitted through the blood and excrement of patients, and the clinical manifestations are acute onset fever, myalgia, bleeding rash and liver and kidney function damage.
EBOV genus filoviridae genus filovirus, being a single-stranded non-segmented negative-strand RNA virus; it is divided into four subtypes: zaire Ebola Virus (ZEBOV), has the strongest virulence, with a mortality rate of up to 90% after human infection; sudan Ebola Virus (Sudan Ebola Virus, SEBOV), the death rate after infection can reach 50%; cote d' Ivore Ebola Virus (CEBOV) and Leston Ebola Virus (Reston Ebola Virus, REBOV) are lethal to non-human primates and less virulent to humans.
The EBOV genome is a negative-strand RNA 18.9kb in length, containing 7 open reading frames, arranged in the order: 3 '-NP-VP 35-VP40-GP-VP30-VP 24-L-5', each product being encoded by a separate mRNA. The L protein and VP35 together constitute a polymerase, which accomplishes the replication of Ebola RNA. Both are ideal therapeutic targets, where inhibition completely prevents RNA synthesis, and both proteins are not present in mammalian cells. VP24 may also be a therapeutic target as it inhibits the type I interferon response of the host.
If the gene expression of the virus can be silenced from the gene level, and the generation and the replication of the Ebola virus can be blocked, thereby fundamentally reducing the virus metabolism and the infection to cells, the gene expression vector is undoubtedly the most ideal Ebola virus treatment means. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) can inhibit or block the expression of any target gene of interest in a sequence-specific manner based on the mechanism of RNA interference (RNAi), thereby achieving the purpose of treating diseases.
siRNA has been previously studied as a pharmaceutically active ingredient for treating ebola virus disease, however, siRNA itself has poor stability and is easily degraded by nuclease in vivo (in particular, siRNA first enters the blood circulation system of the body after systemic administration in vivo, and blood is rich in endogenous nuclease). To overcome this obstacle, one approach is to chemically modify siRNA to improve its stability in blood. To date, the skilled artisan has conducted extensive research on siRNA, however, the degradation process and mechanism of siRNA in blood is still poorly understood, and the choice of modification mode and modification site is still an empirically defined process that must be verified by repeated experiments.
Therefore, for siRNA with different nucleotide sequences, the skilled person still needs to specifically analyze the siRNA, find out a specific modification scheme suitable for the siRNA sequence, in order to develop modified siRNA with good stability, good biological activity or and low cytotoxicity.

Among these, examples 1-10 are modified sirnas specifically targeting ebola virus of the present disclosure, wherein siP1S, siP2S, siP5S, siP6S, siP7S, and siP10S target EBOV vp35mRNA, siP3S, siP4S, siP8S, and siP9S target EBOV L mRNA; comparative examples 1-5 are bare sequences of unmodified siRNA; comparative example 6 is a negative control siRNA without inhibiting the Ebola virus gene.
In the present preparation example, siRNAs listed in Table 1 below were obtained by the conventional solid-phase phosphoramidite method. Equimolar sense and antisense strands were dissolved in DEPC water (available from Amresco under code No. E174), heated to 70-95 deg.C, and then cooled at room temperature, and the two single strands were annealed to form a double-stranded structure by hydrogen bonding.
The molecular weight of single and double strands was analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The observed value is consistent with the theoretical value, which indicates that the synthesized siRNA is the sense strand, antisense strand or double strand with the target sequence.

Figure BDA0001927838770000201
LPS (lipopolysaccharide) of a positive control group is administrated by intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), a vehicle control Saline (normal Saline) and each siRNA administration group (siP 9S and siP10S in preparation example 1) are administrated by intravenous injection (i.v.), animal groups and administration doses are described in Table 7, 3h, 24h and 72h after administration, each blood is centrifuged at 500. mu.L.3000rpm for 15min, and serum is obtained by separation, wherein 30. mu.L is used for detecting immune factors (TNF α, IL-1 β, IL-5, IL-6, MCP-1, GM-CSF, KC and IFN-gamma), and the remaining serum is used for detecting biochemical serum (ALT, AST, TBIL, ALP, CRE and BUN), 4 animals of 24h after administration of groups 2, 5 and 8 are selected, 4 animals of 72h after administration of groups 9, 10, 11 and 12 are selected, and liver, spleen, kidney and pathological tissue staining are taken.
The results show that:
(1) serum biochemical indicators showed that no significant abnormalities were observed at 3 detection time points for each of the indicators, except for the transient elevation of ALT and AST at 3 h. The concrete expression is as follows:
ALP levels were not significantly different between each time point and the Saline group for each siRNA-administered group, except that LPS group was significantly reduced after 24h and 72h treatment compared to the Saline group.
TBIL levels were not significantly different between the various time points and the Saline group in the treatment groups, except for LPS group and siP9S100mg/kg, which were slightly elevated at 3h of administration.
ALT and AST levels were elevated in each treatment group compared with Saline for 3h after administration, and were most significantly elevated in LPS group, but were significantly reduced to levels equivalent to those of Saline 24h after administration. Suggesting that 3h is a transient increase in liver function, the animal can restore itself to normal levels.
BUN levels, increased in LPS group at 3h of administration and increased to the maximum at 24h, and decreased to levels comparable to those in Saline group at 72 h. There was no significant difference between each siRNA administration group and the Saline group at each time point.
The CRE level was slightly increased in each siRNA-administered group, but was not significantly different from that in Saline group except for the case that LPS group was significantly increased 24h after administration.
(2) The expression level of the immune factors showed that each siRNA-administered group did not cause a significant increase in each immune factor at each time point, except that LPS group caused a significant increase in each immune factor at 3h after administration.
(3) Pathological sections showed that, compared with the Saline group, each siRNA administration group showed no significant morphological structural changes in the liver, kidney and spleen.
