Description

Targeting G-quadruplex polypeptide PET (polyethylene terephthalate) imaging agent as well as preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of pharmacy, and particularly relates to a targeting G-quadruplex polypeptide PET imaging agent, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Malignant tumor (cancer) is one of the biggest public health problems in the world, and the traditional cancer treatment methods mainly comprise surgical treatment, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and the like. The traditional Chinese medicine composition can not be used for effectively performing operative treatment and radiotherapy on non-solid tumors and cancers widely metastasized throughout the body, and meanwhile, the chemotherapy method also has the problems of large side effect, poor specificity, low curative effect and the like, so that the requirement of clinical treatment is difficult to meet. Compared with common chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy aiming at specific oncogenes, proteins or receptors has the advantages of strong specificity, obvious curative effect and obvious small side effect, and is gradually one of important means for clinical tumor treatment. In recent years, research and development of new anti-tumor drugs have been greatly advanced, and a large number of new target drugs and new target drugs are developed and applied, wherein research on anti-tumor drugs taking a G-quadruplex as a target has attracted extensive attention.
The G-quadruplex (G-quadruplex) is an atypical structure which can be formed in a nucleic acid sequence rich in guanine (G), a DNA single strand forms a planar G-quadruplex through hydrogen bonding between G bases, and two or more layers of the quadruplex form a G-quadruplex spiral structure through pi-pi accumulation. About 70 million gene sequences capable of forming G-quadruplexes are arranged in a human body, mainly comprise telomere ends, mutation hot spots of genes, promoter regions of genes (such as Bcl-2, c-myc, c-myb, c-kit, Kras, VEGF and VEGFR), cover genes related to senescence, apoptosis, growth factors and receptors thereof, transcription regulatory factors and signal transduction factors, and play important roles in cell senescence, proliferation, apoptosis and tumor formation. In tumor tissues, when a specific ligand is combined with a G-quadruplex formed by the gene sequences, corresponding biochemical processes are changed (such as the activity of telomerase is inhibited, the transcription level of oncogenes is reduced, and the like), so that the anti-tumor effect is achieved.
Positron emission tomography (positron emission tomography) has been widely used in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of various diseases, treatment effect evaluation, organ function research, new drug development and other methodsAnd (5) kneading. Broad-spectrum tumor imaging agent with most clinical applications 18 The F-FDG has the problems of false positive, incapability of distinguishing tumors and inflammations and the like in tumor detection, and although the current PET imaging agents of various novel specific targets (such as PSMA, FAP, EGFR and the like) are developed, researched and applied, and more new targets are also tried to develop related PET imaging agents, the PET imaging agents still have the problems of false positive, incapability of distinguishing tumors and inflammations and the like. The target property of the G-quadruplex determines that the specific PET/CT imaging of the targeted G-quadruplex has the potential of real-time, noninvasive, in-vivo definite tumor focus distribution, early diagnosis of solid tumor, tumor staging, preoperative positioning, postoperative contrast and curative effect monitoring, and can be used for establishing a personalized treatment scheme and guiding operation or targeted treatment. Meanwhile, the PET imaging taking the G-quadruplex as a target has important research and application prospects in the aspects of guiding the research and development of the novel tumor drugs, evaluating the drug effect, screening sensitive people and the like, so that the development of a novel related PET probe targeting the G-4 quadruplex has important significance for biological function imaging.

FIG. 11 is [ 2 ] 18 F]The 60-minute Mico-PET/CT and competitive inhibition visualizations of AlF-NOTA-KR12C in HeLa tumor-bearing mice, wherein the upper left is the uptake CT image, the upper right is the uptake PET image, the lower left is the inhibition CT image, and the lower right is the inhibition PET image.
The PET imaging result shows that: [ 18 F]AlF-NOTA-KR12C has high uptake in U87 and HeLa tumor-bearing mice tumors, and the uptake at tumor parts is obviously higher than that of organs or tissues such as muscles, lungs, intestines and the like. Dynamic imaging shows that the blood in the probe body is quickly cleared, the probe is mainly metabolized by the kidney and the liver, and the time dynamic graph of each organ shows that the tumor/muscle ratio is higher when about 60 minutes, so that the optimal imaging time is selected to be 60 minutes, and the imaging inhibition result of 60 minutes shows that the tumor/muscle ratio is obviously reduced, which indicates that the probe is specifically absorbed at the tumor part. The imaging result shows that the imaging agent can be specifically absorbed in the tumor part, and has better application prospect.
