Definitions
- the invention relates to a senomorphic effect of moxifloxacin, which inhibits the secretory activity of the senescent cell by suppressing SASP as a new effect thereof.
- Cellular senescence is a phenomenon characterized by the loss of cells’ capability of proliferation by exiting from the cell cycle permanently, although they are metabolically and transcriptionally active. This phenomenon is called senescence, and cells that transform into this form are called senescent cells. Senescence is divided into two categories according to the reason of their occurence. The first one is ‘replicative senescence’ (senescence observed in old age) is a type of senescence that occurs after a prolonged proliferation triggered by the intrinsic mechanisms (telomere erosion due to the telomere shortening, deterioration of telomere structure and decreased telomerase expression) in the cell.
- the second one is ‘stress-induced premature senescence’ , which is a relatively fast-forming senescence type (lasting for a few days) triggered by extrinsic stresses (oncogene activation, oxidative stress, DNA damage, drug therapy) without telomere damage.
- Characteristic changes are observed in the senescent cells, such as enlarged and flattened multinucleated cell morphology.
- Another important characteristic feature of senescent cells is that they secrete various substances with strong paracrine effects into the extracellular fluid, such as cytokines, growth factors and matrix metalloproteinases (SASP).
- SASP matrix metalloproteinases
- chemotherapeutic agents used in the clinic induce the formation of senescence and cause the development of senescence secretome.
- the senescent cell secretome formed by chemotherapeutic drugs induce tumor development on the surrounding cells and/or cause resistance to the chemotherapeutic drugs.
- senescent cells accumulating in various tissues with aging and the factors secreted from these cells have also been associated with the pathogenesis of many diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cataract, and pulmonary fibrosis. Therefore, the use of so-called senomorphic agents which inhibit the secretory activity of senescent cells is considered as a new therapeutic strategy in the treatment of pathological conditions related to both cancer and aging.
- Various drugs metalformin, lovastatin, glucocorticoids, etc.
- the potential of drug candidate molecules to become senomorphic drugs have been evaluated in very recent studies conducted for this purpose.
- Glucocorticoids suppress selected components of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype”, Aging cell, 11 (4), 569-78.
- Moxifloxacin (Formula I), which is the subject of the patent application and has been considered as a new senomorphic drug, is currently used in the treatment of infectious diseases due to its antimicrobial activity. Its oral, injection and eve drop forms are available. For moxifloxacin, which is a licensed medicine, no document has been found on the senomorphic activity of moxifloxacin.
- Moxifloxacin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate has a suppressive effect on the secretory activity of senescent cells, apart from its antimicrobial effect, in other words, it has a senomorphic effect.
- moxifloxacin has been determined to suppress SASP (senescence-associated secretory phenotype of the senescent cells) induced by doxorubicin, a chemotherapeutic agent.
- moxifloxacin may be beneficial in cases where adverse effects of SASP developed due to aging and cancer chemotherapy are observed. Moreover, in studies evaluating the activity of SASP, moxifloxacin may be used as an experimental tool to suppress SASP.
- drugs in the literature that suppress SASP secreted from senescent cells. These are compounds with different mechanisms of action and different chemical structures from each other.
- Moxifloxacin which has inhibitory activity on the secretory activity of the senescent cell, is another compound with a completely different structure from these compounds. Considering the clinical use, each drug group may not be used in every patient due to some undesirable effects. To this end, different molecules with similar effects are preferred in the treatment. Moxifloxacin may also be preferred in order to suppress SASP either as a first choice or in cases where other drugs cannot be used. A similar situation exists for the experimental use of compounds that suppress SASP experimentally.
- moxifloxacin may reduce the side effects of chemotherapeutics and cancer development in cancer patients and increase the survival of patients. In addition, this will facilitate the adherence of cancer patients to treatment. On the other hand, moxifloxacin will also be effective in preventing various pathological conditions caused by senescent cells that occur with aging.
- moxifloxacin is to be understood as a moxifloxacin base or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate.
- the present invention encompasses a pharmaceutical composition comprising Moxifloxacin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate and solvate for use in inhibiting the secretory activity of senescent cells.
- composition of the invention is preferably Moxifloxacin hydrochloride or Moxifloxacin hydrochloride monohydrate.
- Said compositions may be administered orally, or as an intravenous infusion.
- the composition When administered orally, the composition is preferably in a tablet form.
- the composition When administered as an intravenous infusion, the composition is preferably in the form of a sterile solution.
- compositions of the invention may preferably be administered simultaneously or sequentially with a chemotherapy agent.
- Another embodiment of the invention comprises Moxifloxacin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate and solvate for use in inhibiting the secretory activity of senescent cells.
- Said compound is preferably Moxifloxacin hydrochloride or Moxifloxacin hydrochloride monohydrate.
- Moxifloxacin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate for use according to the invention may be administered simultaneously or sequentially with a chemotherapy agent.
- moxifloxacin in the treatment of various pathological conditions due to both cancer and aging will contribute to the reduction of health expenses related to these diseases in addition to its therapeutic effect. In addition, it will be easier for cancer patients to increase their adherence to treatment.
- moxifloxacin may be used as an experimental tool that causes suppression of SASP in studies evaluating the activity of SASP in addition to its use as an adjunct agent in the administration of chemotherapy in cancer patients and in the prevention of pathological conditions due to aging.
- a drug containing moxifloxacin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate may be used to reduce or alleviate the side effects or pathological conditions observed in an elderly person.
- Physiological changes in elderly are an increased risk factor for various diseases. Knowing the physiological changes that occur in the elderly is extremely important to understand the diseases that occur in the elderly. Based on a comprehensive understanding of these changes, it may be possible to take appropriate steps to protect elderly against diseases such as respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, endocrine, immune, musculoskeletal and urinary system diseases and to adequately manage these diseases as they occur.
