The present invention relates to novel benzothiazole derivatives and their uses for the regulation of neural stem cell differentiation.

Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, demyelinating disease, and spinal cord injury, known as intractable diseases, are disorders in which neuronal damage is caused by nerve cell damage. The number of patients suffering from the disease is rapidly increasing due to the increase in the average life span and the rapid entry into the aging society. .

On the other hand, the damaged nerve cells are not regenerated due to diseases caused by nerve cell damage, and therefore fundamental treatment is difficult. In addition, drug therapy and surgical operation methods generally used for treating the above diseases are not limited to damaged cells, Cells, which cause side effects, and they are having difficulty in treatment.

In recent years, cell replacement therapy, which supplies cells destructed or damaged by diseases, has been attracting attention as an effective treatment method. Among these cell therapy therapies, stem cells capable of proliferation and differentiation stem cells) are in the spotlight.

Example 3 Confirmation of Effect of Promoting Differentiation into Astrocytes

Neural stem cells (NSCs) proliferate in the presence of EGF (epidermal growth factor) and / or FGF (Fibroblast growth factor), whereas in the absence of these factors, differentiation proceeds into neurons or glial cells. In this example, a benzothiazole derivative containing Compound 5 (2-phenyl- N - (2-phenylbenzo [d] thiazol-7-yl) acetamide synthesized in Example 2) And the effect on the differentiation process. Specifically, the benzothiazole derivatives in the present Examples are shown in Tables 1 and 2, and as described in Example 1-3, immunocytochemical analysis revealed that the neuron stem cells were differentiated into Astrocyte Was evaluated.

[Table 2]

Figure pat00006

As a result, as shown in Fig. 1, when Compound 5 was treated with neural stem cells, many astrocytes differentiated from neural stem cells were observed compared with other benzothiazole derivatives, and the group treated with Compound 5 quantitatively Which was about 4.82 times higher than that of the control group.

From the above results, it was found that the 2-phenyl- N- (2-phenylbenzo [d] thiazol-7-yl) acetamide according to the present invention promotes differentiation into astrocytes in neural stem cells.

Example 4. Derivation of optimal concentration for promoting differentiation into astrocytes

Based on the results of Example 3, it was tried to confirm the specific concentration of Compound 5 which can effectively promote the differentiation into astrocytes. Specifically, Compound 5 of various concentrations (5.0, 7.5, 10.0, and 20.0 μM) was treated for 4 days in neural stem cells not treated with EGF and FGF, and then GFAP-positive astrocytes (red), TuJ1 -positive neurons (green), and DAPI-positive nuclei (blue) were observed and quantified.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, when the compound 5 at a concentration of 5.0, 7.5, or 10.0 μM was treated with neural stem cells, the number of astrocytes increased 3.83, 6.52, or 6.09 times I could. However, the number of neurons was more than 7.5 μM and the total number of cells was decreased more than 10 μM. These results suggest that the optimum concentration of Compound 5 for differentiation into astrocytes is 7.5 μM.

On the other hand, the compound 5 at a concentration of 7.5 μM, which is the optimum concentration, was treated with neural stem cells in the same manner as described above, and GFAP, which is a marker of the stellate cell, and the expression pattern of βII- To test the results, CNTF (Ciliary neurotrophic factor) was used as a comparative experimental group. In addition, when Compound 5 ', which is a structural isomer of Compound 5, was treated, the expression pattern of GFAP mRNA and βⅢ-Tublulin mRNA was compared with the result of Compound 5.

As a result, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the expression of GFAP protein was increased according to the treatment of Compound 5, and, similarly to the above results, Compound 5, unlike Compound 5 'which is a structural isomer, Which is about 6.14 times higher than that of the conventional method.

From the above results, it was found that the 2-phenyl- N- (2-phenylbenzo [d] thiazol-7-yl) acetamide according to the present invention significantly promoted differentiation into astrocytes.

Example 5 Identification of Mechanism Related to Differentiation into Astrocytic Cells

In this Example, the specific mechanism of promoting the differentiation into the astrocytes from the neural stem cells according to the treatment of Compound 5 was confirmed. First, in this example, the presence or absence of phosphorylation of STAT3 and SMADs involved in the differentiation into astrocytes was checked over time, and as a result, as shown in Fig. 5, the expression of STATs and SMADs Phosphorylation, and this effect reached a maximum on day 3 or day 4 after compound 5 treatment.

In view of the fact that it took some time to phosphorylate the STATs and SMADs, it was hypothesized that other molecules could participate in the phosphorylation or activation according to the treatment of the compound 5, and the related cytokines LIF, IL-6, BMP2, and CNTF mRNA; MiR-9, and miR-124, which have been reported to be inversely correlated with STAT3 activity; And miR-29a, which is known to damage cells under stress conditions such as hypothermia. Likewise, expression of TGF-beta1, FGF2, and FGF8 mRNA expression was confirmed by the phosphorylation of ERK1 / 2 according to the treatment of Compound 5 and related factors.

As a result, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the expression of LIF, IL-6, BMP2, and CNTF mRNA was increased 50.20, 45.08, 6.52, or 1.28 times , The expression of miR-9, and miR-124, which decrease STAT3 activity, decreased with the treatment of Compound 5 and the expression of miR-29a, which is reported to have a cytoprotective effect, was increased. In addition, as shown in Figs. 8 and 9, the phosphorylation of ERK1 / 2 was promoted by the treatment of Compound 5, which also showed the most excellent effect on the third day after the treatment of Compound 5, and the TGF- And FGF2 and FGF8 mRNA were also increased by 4.33 or 2.50 times, respectively, compared to the control group.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the 2-phenyl- N - (2-phenylbenzo [d] thiazol-7-yl) , And CNTF, indirectly induces phosphorylation of STAT3 and SMAD1 / 5/8, induces expression of FGFs and TGF-β1 to activate the ERK1 / 2 signaling mechanism, and activates related miRNAs (miR-9, miR-124), which promotes the differentiation of astrocytes.
