Description

Use of ISX-9 in the treatment of circadian amplitude decline and sleep disorders associated with aging
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medicaments, in particular to the use of ISX-9 for the treatment of circadian amplitude decline and sleep disorders associated with aging.
Background
Biological clocks are an internal timer that orderly coordinates a variety of physiological activities, including circadian hormone cycles, feeding, sleep, body temperature, and metabolic activities. Disruption of circadian rhythms in model organisms mimics a variety of conditions associated with human diseases such as cardiovascular dysfunction, diabetes, cancer, sleep disorders, depression, and neurodegenerative diseases. Notably, all of the above diseases are highly correlated with the aging process, and thus the decline in biological clock intensity is also considered as one of the indicators of aging. Given that biological rhythm amplitude degradation is a common feature of health impairment, interventions aimed at preventing biological rhythm amplitude decay as well as shrinking are expected to be applied in the treatment of circadian rhythm disorders and related diseases. Through screening means, previous studies have found that a variety of compounds can be used to modulate the amplitude or phase of biological rhythms, while elucidating the biological clock protein targets and related mechanisms of their action. However, since long-term phase dislocation is harmful to health, small molecules that cause significant phase changes should be carefully used; in addition to specific uses, such as modulation of jet lag, the examination of how to correctly and safely use these small molecules for chronic disease treatment for long periods of time still requires a large amount of clinical data.

Detailed Description
The present inventors have made extensive and intensive studies, and as a result, have provided a use of ISX-9 for treating circadian rhythm disorders by a large number of screening and testing. The inventors have surprisingly found for the first time that ISX-9 can continuously and effectively increase circadian amplitude, treat sleep disorders, improve metabolic fluctuations in circadian rhythm, and treat circadian rhythm disturbances in elderly subjects in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro environments without affecting circadian cycle.
Furthermore, the present invention further demonstrates the sensitization of Ca by ISX-9 2+ Inflow, thereby enhancing CaMKII delta signal, and promotion of BMAL1 phosphorylation mediated by CaMKII delta, thereby increasing circadian amplitude in senescent cells. Thus, designs employing ISX-9 and targeting CaMKII delta are expected to be an important tool for intervention in circadian rhythm decay, even in aging-related diseases.

Example 1. Small molecule screening ISX-9 was identified as a circadian amplitude enhancer.
In order to find new biological rhythm regulation small molecules for more durable enhancement of biological clock amplitude and to minimally interfere with 24 hour circadian cycles, the present invention is directed to a method of enhancing biological clock amplitude by mPer2 Luc Fibroblasts were screened for 8060 small molecule compounds, which covered major targets such as kinases, epigenetic factors, and GPCRs (fig. 1A).
To verify amplitude and phase changes in high throughput primary screening, the inventors measured mPer2 at 24h and 30h, respectively, after drug treatment Luc Chemiluminescence levels of fibroblasts (fig. 1A and B). A compound may be described as an amplitude modulator if it is found that the effect of the compound on the up-or down-regulation of the expression of LUC at two time points is consistent compared to the untreated control; if the effects on the two time points are opposite, it can be stated that the compound is a phase modifier.
After the elimination of compounds with significant cytotoxicity, the invention focuses on the remaining 6777 compounds and gives 270 amplitude enhancers capable of increasing PER 2:LUC amplitude by a factor of 1.2. Among them, ISX-9, atrasentan (atasten), hhANtag, OSI-930, GW4064 and 2-NP are the main candidates for increasing PER2:: LUC level (FIG. 1C).
Real-time recordings of PER 2:LUC luminescence demonstrated that all six drug candidates were able to increase PER 2:LUC amplitude with a rhythmic period maintained near 24 hours without affecting circadian phase (FIG. 1D). Notably, most drug candidates significantly enhanced PER 2:LUC amplitude only on day 1, and then significantly decreased in effect for the remaining 3 days (FIG. 1E).
ISX-9 is the only amplitude enhancer that continuously maintains rhythmic oscillations in the 4-day test. The amplitude enhancement of ISX-9 is broad and can be used to boost the expression of other important rhythmic genes, such as Dbp and Rev-Erbα (FIG. 1F). In these cases, ISX-9 again showed its optimal ability to modulate biological clocks among the six drug candidates.
ISX-9 is an isoxazole compound and has neurogenic activity (FIG. 2A). In the test of the present invention it was found that ISX-9 had a dose dependent effect on increasing PER 2:LUC amplitude (FIG. 2B) and still showed low cytotoxicity at the highest concentration tested of 10. Mu.M (FIG. 2C).
In summary, ISX-9 has excellent effects in enhancing amplitude, persistence, etc., and has dose-dependence, low cytotoxicity, and does not affect circadian cycle, so ISX-9 can be used as a circadian rhythm amplitude enhancer.
Example 2. Relationship of ISX-9 to biological clock genes in cultured cells.
As can be seen from FIG. 3, in agreement with the luciferase assay, ISX-9 increased the expression of biological clock genes including Bmal1, per2, dbp, and other core biological clock genes in Mouse Embryo Fibroblasts (MEFs), and the like.
DBP protein levels are highly sensitive to ISX-9 doses compared to BMAL1 and REV-ERBα (FIG. 4A) and thus can be used as a biological clock protein marker for reporting ISX-9 effects in the peripheral system.
Interestingly, the inventors found that ISX-9 induced DBP and PER2 to LUC at Bmal1 +/- Attenuation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, bmal1 -/- Mouse embryo fibroblast middle nodeThe rhythmicity disappeared, indicating that the amplitude enhancement effect of ISX-9 was dependent on BMAL1 activity (fig. 4B and C).
Example 3 in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo amplitude enhancement effects of ISX-9
As can be seen from FIG. 4, ISX-9 is also capable of stimulating higher PER2:: LUC rhythm amplitude in the visual cross upper core (SCN) and pituitary equivalent external culture recordings (FIG. 4D); and mice seven days after administration of ISX-9 showed higher PER2 rhythmin levels in SCN (fig. 4E), demonstrating overall the amplitude enhancing effect of ISX-9 in cells, in vitro tissues, and in vivo.
EXAMPLE 4 in vivo modulation of the metabolism of ISX-9 in senior mice
To explore the metabolic regulation of ISX-9 in vivo, the present invention further tested the metabolic rate of young (2 months of age) and middle aged and elderly (14 months of age) mice.
Firstly, establishing a steady-state environment of a circadian rhythm, waking up a mouse in a dark environment under a light-dark cycle of 12:12 hours, and enabling the mouse to enter a rest state in a bright environment; circadian rhythm disorder experimental group is 14 month-old mice.
Young mice exhibited significant circadian fluctuations in Respiratory Exchange Ratio (RER) and showed lower RER in the resting/fasted state of the day (fig. 5A). Middle-aged and elderly groups showed poor ren rhythmicity in the metabolic cages, with only a brief increase in ren in the last half of the night, representing the carbohydrate metabolism after eating (fig. 5A).
In vivo injection of ISX-9 in the middle aged and elderly mice increased the magnitude of RER (FIG. 5B), and did not alter the magnitude of RER in the young group (FIG. 5C), indicating the applicability of ISX-9 in rhythm regulation during aging. In addition, the present invention found that ISX-9 was able to correct the RER cycle from 26 hours to 24 hours in the middle aged and elderly group of mice (fig. 5D), without affecting food intake and body weight in the middle aged and elderly group, except for slightly promoting night time water intake (fig. 5E).
Since ISX-9 treatment did not affect the young population (FIGS. 5F and 5G), the results indicate that ISX-9 selectively ameliorates the metabolic disorders associated with aging. Since treatment of ISX-9 was performed prior to the metabolic cage experiment, the experimental results further demonstrate that ISX-9 is sustainable in promoting circadian amplitude in vivo.
EXAMPLE 5 ISX-9 improvement of sleep disorders in middle aged and elderly mice
ISX-9 experimental group showed lower O during daytime 2 Consumption and CO 2 This compound was produced, indicating that it can make rest of middle-aged and elderly mice more stable (fig. 5B). To investigate whether ISX-9 can indeed improve sleep disorders, the present invention performed telemetry recording of electroencephalograms (EEG) and analysis of sleep status in young and middle aged mice.
By comparison, the invention finds that the difference between wakefulness and slow wave sleep (NREM) of two groups of mice at night is most remarkable. The middle aged and elderly group exhibited higher NREM sleep during the night's active period, showing lower wakefulness (fig. 6A). The middle aged and elderly mice also exhibited a circadian rhythm disorder phenotype with greatly reduced activity, reduced body temperature fluctuations (FIG. 6B), reduced beta/gamma fast waves and insignificant delta/theta slow wave fluctuations (FIG. 6C) compared to the young mice, which indicated an overall decrease in intensity of circadian rhythms in the brain during aging.
To test whether ISX-9 can induce circadian rhythm and enhance sleep homeostasis, the inventors administered 20mg/Kg of ISX-9 to the same group of mice for 7 consecutive days, and began EEG recording 7 days after stopping the treatment.
The present invention found that pretreatment with ISX-9 greatly improved the mid-night wakefulness of middle-aged and old mice while reducing fast eye REM and slow wave NREM sleep (fig. 7A). The treated middle-aged and elderly mice also exhibited higher activity at night, while at rest at lower body temperature during the day (fig. 7B), which results indicate that ISX-9 assisted in adjusting the middle-aged and elderly mice to a more alert, active state while awake, and maintained a better, lower body temperature resting state during sleep. The present invention also notes that treated middle aged and elderly mice have higher slow wave delta power during rest and higher fast wave gamma power during wakefulness, both of which show an improvement in brain electrical circadian rhythm homeostasis (fig. 7C).
By calculating the transition from awake-sleep phase upon switching on (ZT 0-1) and off (ZT 12-13), the present invention found that ISX-9 significantly inhibited frequent awake-sleep transitions in the middle aged and elderly group, causing the middle aged and elderly group to approach a more stable sleep-awake steady state observed in healthy young mice (fig. 7D).
EXAMPLE 6 ISX-9 triggering Ca 2+ Inflow and associated with Camk2d Activity
Previous studies demonstrated that ISX-9 can pass through Ca 2+ Signaling promotes neuronal differentiation. The invention first tracks intracellular Ca in MEF by Fluo-4 AM fluorochromes 2+ Level, and confirm that ISX-9 can trigger Ca rapidly in the test 2+ Inflow (fig. 8A).
Consistent with previous reports, the present invention also found that ISX-9 effects were mediated by CaMKII activity, as the CaMKII specific antagonist KN93 completely abrogated the ISX-9 enhancement of PER 2:LUC (FIG. 8B). Of the four CaMKII subtypes, the inventors noted that Camk2b and Camk2d knockdown significantly reduced the ISX-9 effect in real-time PER 2:LUC recordings, but not in Camk2a and Camk2g knockdown (FIG. 8C), showing that the effect of ISX-9 was more dependent on both the CaMKII beta and CaMKII delta subtypes.
Whereas ISX-9 showed a high degree of BMAL1 dependence at elevated DBP and PER 2:LUC levels (FIGS. 4B and C) and triggered phosphorylation of BMAL1 (FIG. 8D), the present invention further examined the activity of CaMKII on phosphorylation of BMAL1 by biochemical methods and compared differences between CaMKII subtypes.
CaMKII delta showed the highest activity on purified BMAL1 in the kinase assay (FIG. 8E), along with the results of Camk2d knockdown affecting PER2:: LUC expression, which data demonstrate that CaMKII delta is critical for mediating BMAL1 dependent ISX-9 effects. These results suggest a junction ISX-9, ca 2+ Signal and BMAL1 phosphorylate to regulate the forward feedback loop of biorhythmic amplitude.
Single molecule RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) analysis showed that Camk2d was more abundantly expressed in subcortical and hypothalamic areas in the mouse brain (fig. 9) and showed clear rhythmic expression that peaked at ZT18 time point in the biological Zhong Zhongshu visual crossing upper core (SCN) (fig. 10), well in agreement with the potential function expected to modulate circadian rhythms. Other CaMKII subtype transcripts, such as Camk2a and Camk2b, showed slight fluctuations and low expression in SCN, with expression more enriched in striatum and cortex (fig. 9). Further, the circadian rhythm effect of ISX-9 on SCN is related to Camk2 d.
EXAMPLE 7 reactivation of Camk2d expression in aged mouse SCN by ISX-9
The significant decrease in Camk2d in SCN in aged mice (FIG. 11A), while ISX-9 increased Camk2d expression (FIG. 11B), suggested that ISX-9 was beneficial in re-increasing CamKII delta levels during aging. The addition of CaMKII delta can up-regulate BMAL1 transcriptional activity by phosphorylating BMAL1, further reversing the circadian rhythm amplitude decline caused by aging. The expression levels of Camk2a and Camk2B were unchanged in the older SCN and did not respond to ISX-9 treatment (FIGS. 11, A and B).
Example 8 Camk2d appears to be a true clock control gene that induces and facilitates control of biological clocks in response to ISX-9.
Whereas Camk2d expression is rhythmic and can be triggered by ISX-9, the present invention searches for specific E-box sequences in the Camk2 promoter. The present invention found that all of the Camk2 subtypes contained E-box elements, including classical E-box sequences (CACGTG) in both the Camk2d and Camk2g promoters (FIG. 12A). After analysis using promoter reporting in N2a cells, the present invention found that the Camk2d promoter was most sensitive to CLOCK: BMAL1 activation, verifying that Camk2d is a well-defined biological CLOCK control gene (FIG. 12B).
In addition, ISX-9 may support the transcription factor CLOCK BMAL1 further induced Camk2 and showed the best effect on Camk2d expression (FIG. 12B), consistent with the effect in aged SCN (FIG. 11B). To demonstrate the direct effect of CaMKII delta on BMAL1 phosphorylation, the inventors purified the CaMKII delta kinase inactivated K43M mutant and detected a significant decrease in BMAL1 phosphorylation by biochemical methods (fig. 12C). In addition, caMKII delta K43M mutants had significantly reduced effect on activation of Dbp: luc expression (FIG. 12D), again confirming that CaMKII delta can up-regulate biorhythmic amplitude by phosphorylating BMAL 1.
Taken together, the results indicate that CaMKII delta acts as a biological clock-regulated clock protein, modulating BMAL1 activity and forming a positive feedback cycle, enhancing this positive feedback cycle, e.g., using CaMKII agonist ISX-9, reversing circadian decay caused by aging, rejuvenating aging guests (fig. 13).
Discussion of the invention
The invention provides an intervention measure based on a small molecular medicine, which is used for effectively and continuously amplifying circadian amplitude and solving the problem of gradual attenuation of the circadian amplitude in the elderly. Part of the reason for this attenuation is that the amount of CaMKII delta expressed decreases during aging, thus limiting the ability to regulate biological clocks by CaMKII delta phosphorylating and initiating BMAL 1.
Previous work has shown that calcium fluctuations are the fundamental signal for circadian rhythm generation in the supranuclear of the visual junction, the present invention further demonstrates sensitization of Ca by ISX-9 2+ Inflow is a convenient way to boost the CaMKII delta signal and thereby increase the circadian amplitude of senescent cells. In addition to the neurogenic activity of ISX-9, and the improvement of neurodegenerative diseases, the application of ISX-9 is expected to have potential in anti-aging, especially in the treatment of nervous system diseases.
In summary, designs employing ISX-9 and targeting CaMKII delta are expected to be important tools for intervention in circadian rhythm decay, even in aging-related diseases.
