Description

Application of Pycnidone in preparation of anti-prostate cancer drugs
[ field of technology ]
The invention relates to the technical field of anti-prostate cancer drugs, relates to application of Pycnidone in preparing an anti-prostate cancer drug, and in particular relates to application of a necrotic apoptosis inducer Pycnidone in preparing the anti-prostate cancer drug.
[ background Art ]
Prostate cancer (PCa) refers to an epithelial malignancy that occurs in the Prostate. Prostate cancer is a global, male, high-grade disease. Data published by the cancer center in China shows that prostate cancer is ranked in the 6 th place of men in the 10 th place before the onset of major malignant tumors of nationwide sex, and 10.2 prostate cancer patients in every 10 thousands of people. The early stage of the prostate cancer is often asymptomatic, and as the tumor progresses, symptoms caused by the prostate cancer can be summarized as compression symptoms and metastasis symptoms. The compression symptoms are caused by the gradual increase of the prostate gland to compress the urethra, which causes the progressive urination difficulty, and are manifested by thin urine line, short range, slow urine flow, interruption of urine flow, dribbling after urination, incomplete urination and difficult urination, and furthermore, frequent urination, urgent urination, nocturia increase and even urinary incontinence. Tumor compression to the rectum may cause difficulty in stool or intestinal obstruction, compression to the vas deferens may cause ejaculatory deficit, compression to the nerves may cause perineal pain, and radiation to the sciatic nerve. In terms of metastatic symptoms, prostate cancer can invade the bladder, seminal vesicles, and vascular nerve bundles, causing hematuria, hemospermia, and impotence. Pelvic lymph node metastasis can cause edema of both lower limbs. Prostate cancer is often prone to bone metastases, causing bone pain or pathological fractures, paraplegia. Prostate cancer can also invade bone marrow causing anemia or a decrease in whole blood.
Androgen receptor (Androgen receptor, AR) plays an important role in the development of prostate cancer, and following the initiation of castration-induced androgen deprivation therapy by Huggins in 1941, scientists have increasingly clear knowledge of the intricate androgen signaling axis and AR, and androgen deprivation therapy (Androgen deprivation therapy, ADT) implemented in different forms of surgery, radiotherapy, drugs, etc., has become the standard treatment for high-risk localized prostate cancer, recurrent and advanced prostate cancer. Drug therapies targeting AR, gnRH, gnRHR, CYP A1 all fall into ADT therapy. After the patients receive these medications, the tumors in the body are temporarily suppressed. With the occurrence of events such as AR over-expression, cutter, gene mutation and the like, cancer cells in a patient resist ADT therapy, and at the moment, chemotherapy drugs such as docetaxel and the like are introduced for subsequent treatment, so that the survival time of the patient can be effectively prolonged. However, events such as altered tubulin interactions, altered efflux transporter expression, and overexpression of anti-apoptotic proteins, in turn, make cancer cells resistant to chemotherapy. Drug resistance, particularly endocrine therapy and chemotherapeutic drug cross-resistance, has become a major obstacle in current clinical practice.
Necroptosis is a self-destructive process of cells that prevents activation by the arrest of apoptosis. Necrotic apoptosis is usually triggered by extracellular stimuli, which when a ligand (e.g., TNF) binds to a death receptor (e.g., TNFR1, TLR 4) on the cell membrane, the receptor recruits TRADD, RIPK1/RIPK3, phosphorylating RIPK1/RIPK3 to form necrotic corpuscles; the necrotic bodies regulate MLKL phosphorylation, producing a membrane pore complex on the plasma membrane, leading to DAMP (damage associated molecular patterns) secretion, cell swelling and membrane rupture. Necrotic apoptosis is a different mechanism from that of apoptosis, and can occur after apoptosis is blocked, and may be a method of overcoming apoptosis resistance. It has also been found that necrotic apoptosis of tumor cells is also an immunogenic cell death, which stimulates the adaptive immune system, induces maturation of dendritic cells, cross-priming of cytotoxic T cells and production of IFN- γ, thereby activating an immune response against prostate cancer. Based on the conclusions reached by the above studies, targeting necrotic apoptosis has become an important strategy against prostate cancer.
