Definitions

  • This invention relates to intracellular receptors and ligands therefor. More specifically, this invention relates to compounds which are non-steroidal progesterone receptor antagonists or agonists, and methods for use of such compounds or ligands.
  • hormones certain small molecule, non-peptide hormones and similarly acting vitamins and vitamin metabolites (collectively hereinafter called “hormones”) modulate gene transcription by acting in concert with intracellular components, including intracellular receptors and discrete DNA promoter enhancer sequences known as hormone response elements (HREs).
  • hormone response elements HREs
  • ligands are synthesized in the body or may be taken in as a component of food. It has also been shown that compounds other than the natural ligands can act upon intracellular receptors to regulate hormone-responsive genes. For example, some natural product derivatives and synthetic compounds also function as ligands for these receptors.
  • Intracellular receptors form a class of structurally-related genetic regulators scientists have named "ligand dependent transcription factors.” Regulation of a gene by such factors requires both the intracellular receptor itself and a corresponding ligand which has the ability to selectively bind to the intracellular receptor in a way that affects gene activity. Until bound by a ligand, the intracellular receptor is unable to exert an effect on the gene. Hormone or other ligand molecules in the fluid surrounding a cell pass through the outer cell membrane by passive diffusion. Once inside the cell, the ligand binds to specific intracellular receptor proteins, creating a ligand/receptor complex. The binding of the ligand to its receptor induces a change in the shape of the intracellular receptor. This conformational change is believed to expose regions of the intracellular receptor that permit the intracellular receptor/1igand complex to bind to a specific subset of genes present in the cell' s DNA in the cell nucleus.
  • the blueprint to build specific proteins is encoded in the DNA sequence of each gene. This blueprint is copied in a process referred to as "transcription,” to give rise to the actual template for the production of specific proteins, messenger RNA or "mRNA". The mRNA then moves from the cell's nucleus into the cytoplasm and is translated, which results in the production of proteins encoded in the mRNA. Accordingly, a reduction in the transcription of mRNA reduces the production of the specific proteins.
  • the intracellular receptor/ligand complex binds to the specific site on the DNA, it alters the amount of the protein encoded by the gene that the cell is directed to produce, by altering the amount of mRNA transcribed by that gene.
  • a ligand which binds an intracellular receptor and mimics the effect of the natural ligand is referred to as an "agonist” ligand.
  • a ligand that inhibits the effect of the hormone is called an "antagonist.”
  • Intracellular receptors are referred to as "ligand-dependent transcription factors" because their activity is dependent upon the binding of their hormonal or other ligands, which are necessary to drive the intracellular receptor into its active conformation.
  • the intracellular receptors form a large family of proteins that are closely related in structure. They are important drug targets, and many drugs currently on the market are ligands for these receptors. Not surprisingly, the structural similarity of the receptors often results in cross-reactivity between a drug and receptors other than its target. It is apparent, therefore, that there is a need to find alternative ligands (agonists and antagonists) which are readily available for therapeutic administration, have added specificity for particular receptors, and have increased activity.
  • Ligands to the progesterone receptor are known to play an important role in gynecological medicine, cancer, and other health care problems of women. Its natural ligand, the female steroid progesterone, and synthetic analogues are, for example, used in birth control formulations. Antagonists to progesterone are useful in treating chronic disorders such as certain forms of hormone dependent cancer of the breast, ovaries, and endometrium (the lining of the uterus), and in treating uterine fibroids. Endometriosis, a leading cause of infertility in women, currently treated in early stage development by surgery, is also amenable to treatment with progesterone.

  • the co-transfection assay provides a mechanism to evaluate ability of a compound to function as an agonist or antagonist of the activity modulated by an intracellular receptor.
  • the co-transfection assay mimics an in vivo system in the laboratory.
  • a cloned gene for an intracellular receptor is introduced by transfection (a procedure to induce cells to take up foreign genes) into a background cell substantially devoid of endogenous intracellular receptors. This introduced gene directs the recipient cells to make the intracellular receptor protein.
  • a second gene is also introduced (co-transfected) into the same cells in conjunction with the intracellular receptor gene. This second gene functions as a reporter for the transcription-modulating activity of the target intracellular receptor.
  • the reporter acts as a surrogate for the products normally expressed by a gene under control of the target receptor and its natural hormone.
  • a preferred reporter gene is one which expresses the firefly enzyme luciferase.
  • the co-transfection assay can detect small molecule agonists or antagonists of target intracellular receptors. Exposing the cells to an agonist ligand increases reporter activity in the transfeeted cells that can be conveniently measured, reflecting ligand-dependent, intracellular receptor-mediated increases in reporter transcription. To detect antagonists, the co-transfection assay is carried out in the presence of a constant concentration of an agonist known to induce a defined reporter signal. Increasing concentrations of a test antagonist will decrease the reporter signal. The co-transfection assay is therefore useful to detect both agonists and antagonists of specific intracellular receptors. It determines not only whether a compound interacts with a particular intracellular receptor, but also whether this interaction mimics (agonizes) or blocks (antagonizes) the effects of the natural regulatory molecules on target gene expression.
  • Co-transfected cells are exposed to a medium to which is added the potential ligand that is being evaluated. If the candidate ligand diffuses into the cell and binds to the receptor and the resulting complex functions as an agonist, it binds to the co-transfected reporter gene and initiates transcription.
  • that gene is one that expresses, for example, luciferase
  • luciferase is produced which catalyzes a light-emitting reaction with its substrate luciferin.
  • the amount of light produced relative to the concentration of candidate ligand used in the assay provides a measure of the potency and efficacy of the compound tested.
  • Antagonist activity is evaluated by adding the candidate ligand and a known agonist to the co-transfected cells. Suppression of agonist-induced luciferase production by the candidate compound, and hence the amount of light produced, indicates the candidate ligand is an antagonist.
  • CV-1's Cultured monkey kidney cells

  • the cyclocymopol compounds were tested at eight concentrations (10 -4 to 10 -11 M) for the generation of a full dose response curve, and were compared to the progesterone control hormone response. A total of three replicates per concentration point were tested for each compound, and the EC 50 was calculated for each positive response. Both agonist and antagonist activity for each test compound was determined in parallel. In the antagonist assay, 10 -8 M progesterone was added to the media immediately prior to the addition of the cyclocymopol test compounds at the eight concentrations.

  • Compound SO-9 was also tested with orphan receptors (which are receptors whose natural ligand is unknown). The compound was found not to cross-react with any of the other receptors, which demonstrates that activity was limited to the progesterone receptor.
  • Figure 6 is illustrative, and shows that compound SO-9 demonstrated neither agonist nor antagonist activity with the glucocorticoid receptor, dexamethasone.
  • the 3R and 3S diastereomeric acetates of cyclocymopol monomethyl ether were also individually tested for cross reactivity with the other known intracellular receptor classes. This testing showed the 3R diastereomer to have slight agonist activity with the glucocorticoid receptor. No antagonist activity was detected with either compound.
  • a plasmid which expresses progesterone receptor was transfected into CV-1 cells by the method of calcium phosphate precipitation. After six hours, the cells were washed and incubated at 37°C with 95% O 2 /5% CO 2 for 40 hours prior to harvest.
  • Progesterone receptor antagonists such as RU486, can increase the specific binding of progesterone to its ligand binding site. This enigma was also observed upon performing binding studies with 3 H-progesterone in the presence of compound SO-9. As shown in Figure 8, this compound significantly increased the apparent Bmax of 3 H-progesterone.
  • T47D cells have proven to be a particularly useful model to investigate the molecular actions of sex steroids because they contain endogenous functional receptors for, and respond to, progestins, and their respective antagonists. Moreover, these cells contain exceptionally high titers of progesterone receptors and are exceptionally sensitive to the actions of progestins in a manner quite similar to their actions in normal and neoplastic mammary epithelial cells.
