Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a composition for prevention and treatment of cancer,

 The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating cancer. Specifically

2-furanopropanenitrile, a- [2- [3, 5-bis (trifluoromethyl) phenyl] hydrazinylidene] 5-bis (trifluoromethyl) phenyl] hydrazinylidene] -β-oxo-) is administered to cancer cells to activate cancer cells and mitophagy, thereby killing cancer cells.

Autophagy is an action that causes cells to decompose their own proteins in response to nutrient deficiency, or to remove unnecessary cellular components during cell reconstruction. Physiologically, the self-predation process is a recycling system that builds on the basis of new organelles, supplying energy to improve cells or maintain homeostasis, rather than simply removing it. It plays an important role.

Eukaryotic cell death is largely dependent on three mechanisms, namely, apoptosis, autophagy and necrosis, depending on morphological and biochemical characteristics. Autophagy is defined as the process of autophagosomic-lysosomal proteolysis, which is activated in certain situations. Such autophagy is generally triggered under malnutrition conditions, but development, differentiation, It is also known to be associated with physiological processes such as neurodegenerative diseases and infections (Reggiori, F. et al . (2002) Eukaryot. Cell 1, 11-21). This apoptosis-induced apoptosis is classified as type II programmed cell death through a pathway different from apoptosis classified as type 1 apoptosis, and it is classified as nutrient starvation or environment (Or mitochondria) or cytoplasmic proteins are isolated from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or newly synthesized bi-membrane structures, And then forming an autophagosome. The autogenous body ultimately fuses with the enoxosome and the lysosome, and the degradation products are recycled by the cells. When self-predominant action is above a certain level, apoptosis occurs, and development of a therapeutic agent for apoptosis-induced apoptosis is currently of interest.

Mitophagy is a selective degradation process of mitochondria by autophagy, and is caused by mitochondria damaged by stress. The mitochondria prevent the accumulation of mitochondria that do not function to stimulate the circulation of mitochondria and alter the cells, thus making the cells the main factor for maintaining health.

Recently, the importance of active research and autopoiesis based on the control mechanism of cancer cell self-regulation has been established in various diseases, and it has been found that autopatch is not only a part of cell death, but also contributes to cancer cell survival have. However, it is noteworthy that cell organelle-specific autophagy exists, and this detailed autophagy is being studied as a therapeutic agent targeting specific cell death.

Accordingly, the present inventors have completed the present invention as a result of intensive studies to develop a method for treating various cancers by inducing cell organelle-specific autophagy of cancer cells.

U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2011-0082159 (A1) U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2010-0022640 (A1)

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating cancer, which can induce cancer cell death by activating mitochondrial-specific autophagy of cancer cells.

In order to accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating cancer, comprising a compound represented by the following formula 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient.

Figure 112015072768189-pat00001

In the present invention, the compound represented by the formula (1) is preferably selected from the group consisting of 2-furanopropanenitrile, α- [2- [3,5-bis (trifluoromethyl) phenyl] hydrazinylidene] Acceptable salts include, unless otherwise indicated, salts of acidic or basic groups that may be present in the compounds of the present invention and may be prepared by methods known to those skilled in the art or by preparation of the salts.

In the present invention, since the mitochondrial selective degradation process induced by autophagic action, which is one of eukaryotic cell apoptosis mechanisms, induces mitochondria to induce apoptosis of cancer cells, Can be applied to all cancers, and preferably lung cancer, as long as the mitotic page of the subject can be induced.

In the present invention, the lung cancer is a malignant tumor of the lung, and includes primary lung cancer occurring in the lung itself and metastatic lung cancer in which cancer arising from other organs is transferred to the lung. Small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) are classified into squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma is a lung cancer caused by denaturation of squamous epithelium that constitutes the bronchial mucosa of the lung. It is mainly found in the lungs. Adenocarcinoma is a cancer that occurs in the cytoskeleton, which mainly functions as a secretion of specific substances in the peripheral part of the lungs. Large cell carcinomas mainly occur near the lung surface, and cancer cells are generally large. Small cell carcinoma It is characterized by the first onset of the airway and the strong malignancy.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the compound may have an anticancer effect through autophagic activity of cancer cells.

In the present invention, the self-predation is an action for the cell to remove unnecessary cellular components in the process of decomposing its own protein in response to a nutrient deficiency or rebuilding the cells. Physiologically, the self-predation process is a recycling system that supplies energy to improve cells or maintain homeostasis rather than merely the removal, and build a foundation for new organelles. If the self-predation is above a certain level, it causes apoptosis, which can lead to the death of cancer cells by autophagy. Specifically, when a pharmaceutical composition containing a compound according to the present invention is treated in a cancer cell in which autophagy is inhibited, it is possible to induce an autopoietic process and thereby cause self-destruction of cancer cells. It is known as the phenomenon. In particular, there are patients whose patients have anticancer drug resistance and whose cellular autoregulation is inhibited. When the pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention is treated with these, it can induce auto-apoptosis of cancer cells and can be used as a target drug development.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the self-feeding may be through the activity of LC3 or NIX.

In the present invention, the above-mentioned LC3 is a protein involved in the formation of an autogranular body and is caused by the following mechanism. In mammalian cells, when nutrients decrease, they form autogranular bodies by proteins such as atg and FIP200. In this case, beclin-1-class Ⅲ PI3K complex is required for self-repopulation, LC3 (light chain3) -II should be inserted into the membrane of autoprolide, LC3-Ⅱ is a protein similar to ubiquitin, .

In the present invention, the NIX is one of the proteins associated with mitochondrial activity, and is involved in a mechanism for preventing the accumulation of mitochondria over functions capable of promoting the recovery of mitochondria and inhibiting the cell environment. Furthermore, one of the active pathways in the mitochondrion can be made by the mitochondrion receptor on the surface of the mitochondrial outer membrane, including NIX1, BNIP3 and FUNDCI. Among these, BNIP3L forms a complex with NIX and is involved in the migration of lysosomal proteins from the mitochondrial cytoplasm to the mitochondrial matrix. In addition, all of the above receptors contain a LIR common sequence capable of binding LC3 / GABARAP and resulting in degradation of the mitochondria. One of the receptors, BNIP3, is up-regulated by HIF1α in a hypoxic environment, and BNIP3 then phosphorylates at the serine residue near the LIR sequence promoting LC3 binding. FUNDCI is also susceptible to hypoxic conditions despite being composed in the mitochondrial outer membrane under normal conditions.

Thus, treatment of cancer cells with the composition according to the present invention increases the levels of LC3 and NIX mRNA expression (see Examples 3.4 and 3.5), promotes autophagy formation and induces autophagy, resulting in cell death Can cause.

According to the present invention, 2-furanopropanenitrile, a- [2- [3,5-bis (trifluoromethyl) phenyl] hydrazinylidene] -? - oxo- or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, Induced mitochondrial-specific autophagy, resulting in the death of cancer cells.
