Description
NOVEL ARTEMISININ OR DEOXOARTEMISININ-GLYCOLIPID HYBRID DERIVATIVES AND ANTIANGIOGENIC USE THEREOF
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrid derivatives and antiangiogenic use thereof.
DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART
Angiogenesis is a physical process in which new blood vessels are formed from preexisting vessels. The blockade of vascular endothelial growth factor results in regression of the disease and prolongation of survival when used for anti-cancer therapy.1 Discovery of new antiangiogenic agents based on small molecules is an attractive approach for the treatment of cancer.
Artemisinin, a sesquiterpene endoperoxide isolated from Artemisia annua L2, is represented by the following chemical formula:
Artemisinin and its derivatives have been reported as potential antitumor agents,3 and also been known to have antiangiogenic activity.4 In a previous report, we described the potent antiangiogenic effects of artemisinin derivatives.5 Non acetal-type derivates at C-12 of artemisinin and their dimers including a fullerene conjugate were synthesized and some of them showed potent in vivo antiangiogenic activity on the chorioallantoic membrane that was higher than or comparable to those of fumagillin and thalidomide.5 Furthermore, novel amide derivatives of a C-12 non acetal deoxoartemisinin trimer were synthesized and showed potent in vivo antiangiogenic activity according to the results of mouse matrigel plug assays.3'1
Recently, some studies have reported the antiangiogenic activity of glycolipids.6
Daumone, originally isolated from Caenorhabditis elegans, was identified by our laboratory and its total synthesis was presented.7 Daumone is represented by the following chemical formula:
In a continuation of the investigation, we studied the anticancer activity of daumone against human cell lines.6 Daumone and tri-deoxyrhamnose derivatives containing amide side chains were the most potent anticancer compounds that we surveyed, with effective concentrations in the nanomolar range, which is comparable to that of doxorubicin.8
Although various antiangiogenic agents have been developed, adverse side effects and limitations associated with antitumor therapies have recently become apparent. Cancer is a complex disease. In order to improve the activity of anticancer agents, treatment using hybrid dnjgs, an approach that incorporates two drugs in a single molecule, has been developed.9 The use of hybrid drugs can impact multiple targets simultaneously. Throughout this application, several patents and publications are referenced and citations are provided in parentheses. The disclosure of these patents and publications is incorporated into this application in order to more fully describe this invention and the state of the art to which this invention pertains. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors have made intensive research to develop a novel compound having excellent antiangiogenic and anticancer activity. As a result, the inventors have synthesized various artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrid derivatives which exhibit two or more times stronger activity than that of the existing drugs, thus completed the present invention.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a novel artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrid derivative.
It is another object of this invention to provide a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating an angiogenic disease.
It is still another object of this invention to provide a method for preventing or treating an angiogenic disease.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description to follow taken in conjugation with the appended claims and drawings.

Example 2: Evaluation of Antiangiogenic Activity
The in vivo antiangiogenic activity of the various hybrid compounds was evaluated using the CAM (chick chorioallantoic membrane) vessel development assay as previously described.5,11
Briefly, fertilized eggs (Pulmuone Co., Kyungki-do, Korea) were incubated at 37 °C with 80-90% relative humidity. At day 3, a window was opened after the removal of 2 ml albumin in the eggs (Rgure 3).
At day 5 of incubation, test samples loaded on a quarter size Thermanox coverslip (Nunc, Roskilde, Denmark) was applied to the CAM of each individual embryo at a concentration of 2.5 nmol/egg. After 2 incubation days, a 20% fat emulsion was injected into the CAM for observation of the inhibition avascular zone. If an avascular zone of about 3-6 mm diameter, as indicated with an arrow in Rgure 4, was observed, then it was considered to represent effective inhibition on neovascularization. The results of these experiments are listed in Table 1. The standard drugs used for comparison were (-)-fumagillin and (-)-thalidomide. Table 1

As shown in Table 1, it is interesting to note that most hybrids exhibited twice the antiangiogenic activity at a concentration of 2.5 nmol/egg than that of fumagilin or thalidomide as the standard drug.
Artemisinin showed a weak inhibitory effect at the given concentration, while glycolipid (daumone) remained stronger than standard drugs. Generally hybrids showed higher antiangiogenic activity than artemisinin and comparable to that of glycolipid (daumone).
However, C-12 acetal-type artemisinin-glycolipid hybrids (3a and 3d) exhibited weaker activity than non-acetal type hybrids. A benzoyl protected hybrid (3d) with acetal function at C- 12 of artemsinin displayed the weakest inhibitory activity, while a hybrid (3i) with free hydroxy! groups of glycolipid with non-acetal function of artemisinin showed complete (100%) inhibition of angiogenesis.
Interestingly, terminal olefin of the aliphatic side chain of a compound (3h) that has a good antitumor activity displayed dramatically increased toxicity, and 50 % of tested chicken embryos died at the given concentration.
The regioisomers (3h, 3j) showed only comparable antiangiogenic activity, thus suggesting the coupling position of the C-12 side function of artemisinin should link with the terminal carboxylic acids of glycolipids.
It is noteworthy that the hybrid compound (3i) that does not exhibit cytotoxicity has the most potent antiangiogenic activity in this assay. The requirement for the presence of the peroxide bond for antiangiogenesis needs to be determined by preparation and in vivo screening of desoxy derivatives of artemisinin .
In summary, hybrids of nonacetal and acetal types of artemisinin and glycolipid were synthesized in one-step reactions and most showed one to two times more potent in vivo antiangiogenic activity than standard drugs. Among the 11 synthetic compounds tested, hybrids 3f, 3g and 3i showed the most potent antiangiogenic activity, twice as much potency as fumagilin and thalidomide, known as antiangiogenic agents. In particular, hybrid 3i showed
complete inhibition at 2.5 nm/egg with no toxicity. Compounds 3a and 3h showed similar activity to that of fumagillin. Evidence that acetal-type analogs at C-12 of artemisinin are more neurotoxic in animal studies than non acetal-type analogs is also emerging,12 and may thus lead to the future abandonment of the currently clinically used acetal-type potential anticancer drug candidates. Therefore, nonacetal 12β (C-C)-type derivatives of artemisinin- glycolipid hybrids deserve further evaluation as possible anticancer drug candidates because of their high acid stability,3 low toxicity and high in wVoantiangiogenesis.
Example 3: Evaluation of Anticancer Activity
The anticancer activity of the artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrids synthesized in Example 1 was evaluated using MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay according to the previously described procedure (Carmichel, J. et al., Evaluation of a Tetrazolium-based Semiautomated Colorimetric Assay: Assessment of Chemosensitivity testing, Cancer Res., 47:936-42(1987)).
The in vitro cytotoxicity (I o) of the artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrid derivatives to cancer cell was measured and the results are represented in Table 2.
Table 2
MDA-MB-231 (Korean Cell Line Bank, Seoul, Korea): metastatic breast cancer cells (estrogen receptor-negative)
MCF7 (Korean Cell Line Bank, Seoul, Korea): estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells
A549 (Korean Cell Line Bank, Seoul, Korea): lung cancer cells
HSC-2 (Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources (JCRB), Japan): oral squamous carcinoma cells (gingiva origin)
Ca.9.22 (Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources (JCRB), Japan): oral squamous carcinoma cell (mouth origin)
As shown in Table 2, the artemisinin or deoxoartemisinin-glycolipid hybrids of the present invention were found to have an anticancer activity to the various cancer cells, and showed especially excellent efficacy to oral cancer cell. In the actual experiment, compound 3b also exhibited more excellent anticancer activity to all the cancer cell lines than artemisinin or
daumone alone.
Having described a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is to be understood that variants and modifications thereof falling within the spirit of the invention may become apparent to those skilled in this art, and the scope of this invention is to be determined by appended claims and their equivalents.
