Antecedentes da Invenção Background of the Invention
As piranonaftoquinonas, um grupo de moléculas incluídas na família das quinonas, podem ser de origem natural ou sintética com múltiplas propriedades biológicas. Na natureza suas fontes mais frequentes são plantas superiores, artrópodes, fungos, liquens, bactérias, algas e vírus, conforme descrito por Pyranonaphthoquinones, a group of molecules included in the quinone family, may be of natural or synthetic origin with multiple biological properties. In nature their most frequent sources are higher plants, arthropods, fungi, lichens, bacteria, algae and viruses, as described by
Thompson, R. U.(Naturally Occuring Quinones IV: Recents Advances; Champman & Hall, Londres, 1997), com funções biológicas múltiplas nos mais diversos ciclos metabólicos destes organismos {Barreiro, E. J; da Silva, J. E. M.; Fraga, C. A. M.; Noções Básicas do Metabolismo dos Fármacos; Quím. Nova 1996, 19, 641). Um grande número de quinonas naturais possui aplicações biológicas práticas, algumas chegaram à produção industrial, como por exemplo, as vitaminas do tipo K, mitomicinas e antraciclinas, entre outras conforme descrito (M. N. da Silva, V. F. Ferreira, M. C. B. V. de Souza; Um panorama atual da química e da farmacologia de naftoquinonas, com ênfase na β-lapachona e derivados; Quim. Nova 2003, 26, 407). Thompson, R. U. (Naturally Occuring Quinones IV: Recents Advances; Champman & Hall, London, 1997), with multiple biological functions in the various metabolic cycles of these organisms {Barreiro, E. J; da Silva, J. E. M .; Fraga, C.A. M .; Basics of Drug Metabolism; Chem. Nova 1996, 19, 641). A large number of natural quinones have practical biological applications, some have reached industrial production, such as K-type vitamins, mitomycins and anthracyclines, among others as described (MN da Silva, VF Ferreira, MCBV de Souza; chemistry and pharmacology of naphthoquinones, with emphasis on β-lapachone and derivatives; Quim Nova 2003, 26, 407).
Algumas quinonas, como as do grupo da β-lapachona, são bons agentes bacterianos e antifúngicos como são relatadas (Guiraud, P.; Steiman, R.; Campos Takaki, G.M.; Seigle-Murandi, E.; Simeon B.M.; Comparison of antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of Lapachol and β-Lapachone; Planta Medica 1994, 60, 373). Além disso, estudos comprovam que além de serem agentes bacterianos e antifúngicos, atuam no processo da prevenção da esquistossomose, por inibirem o processo de penetração das cercarias do Schistosoma mansoni em camundongos, como visto (Pinto, A. V.; Gilbert, B.; Pinto, M. C; ln Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of the toxocity of 1 ,4-Naphthoquinone and 1 ,2-Naphthoquinone Derivatives against Trypanosoma cruzi; Ann. Trop. Med. Parasitei. 1978, 72, 523). Some quinones, such as those in the β-lapachone group, are good bacterial and antifungal agents as reported (Guiraud, P .; Steiman, R .; Campos. Takaki, GM; Seigle-Murandi, E .; Simeon BM; Comparison of antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of Lapachol and β-Lapachone; Medical Plant 1994, 60, 373). Moreover, studies prove that besides being bacterial and antifungal agents, they act in the process of prevention of schistosomiasis, by inhibiting the penetration process of Schistosoma mansoni cercariae in mice, as seen (Pinto, AV; Gilbert, B .; Pinto, M. C. Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of the toxicity of 1,4-Naphthoquinone and 1,2-Naphthoquinone Derivatives against Trypanosoma cruzi (Ann. Trop. Med. Parasitei. 1978, 72, 523).
A ação das quinonas sobre os vírus está relacionada com a inibição das enzimas da família das polimerases, mais preciso das DNA polimerases, e também com a inibição da enzima transcriptase reversa. A ação sobre esta última enzima foi demonstrada sobre os vírus da mieloblastose aviária (AMV) e da leucemia murínica de Raucher(RLV). A ação inibitória da enzima DNA polimerase foi específica, pois comparada com outros inibidores, as quinonas apresentaram característica distintas e ineditismo em comparação com outros como relatado (Schuerch, A. R; Wehrli, W.; β-Lapachone, an Inhibitor of Oncornavirus Reverse Transcriptase and Eukariotic DNA Polymerase-a: Inhibitory Effect, Thiol Dependence and Specificity; Eur. J. Biochem. 1978, 84, 197) ou também relatado por outro grupo de pesquisadores (Chau, Y. P.; Shiah, S. G.; Don, M. J.; M. L. Kuo; Involvement of Hydrogen Peroxide in Topoisomerase Inhibitor beta-Lapachone-Induced Apoptosis andThe action of quinones on viruses is related to inhibition of polymerase family enzymes, more precise DNA polymerases, and also to inhibition of reverse transcriptase enzyme. The action on the latter enzyme has been demonstrated on avian myeloblastosis (AMV) and Raucher murine leukemia (RLV) viruses. The inhibitory action of the DNA polymerase enzyme was specific, as compared to other inhibitors, quinones had distinct characteristics and novelty compared to others as reported (Schuerch, A. R; Wehrli, W .; β-Lapachone, an Inhibitor of Oncornavirus Reverse. Transcriptase and Eukariotic DNA Polymerase-a: Inhibitory Effect, Thiol Dependence and Specificity; Eur. J. Biochem. 1978, 84, 197) or also reported by another group of researchers (Chau, YP; Shiah, SG; Don, MJ; ML Kuo; Involvement of Hydrogen Peroxide in Topoisomerase Inhibitor beta-Lapachone-Induced Apoptosis and
Differentiation in Human Leukemia Celis, Free Radical Biol. Med. 1998, 24, 660). Differentiation in Human Leukemia Celis, Free Radical Biol. Med. 1998, 24, 660).
Outros estudos demonstram que mesmo em baixas concentrações essas substâncias foram capazes de induzirem à morte de células cancerosas da próstata humana, com características de processo apoptótico. Este novo modo de atuação biodinâmica vem tornar esta quinona um grande potencial como droga de valor para a quimioterapia de câncer, particularmente no câncer de próstata (Li, J. C; Wang, C; Pardee B. A.; Induction of Apoptosis by β-Lapachone in Human Prostate Câncer Celis; Câncer Res. 1995, 55, 3712). Other studies show that even at low concentrations these substances were able to induce the death of human prostate cancer cells, with characteristics of apoptotic process. This new mode of biodynamic action makes this quinone a great potential as a valuable drug for cancer chemotherapy, particularly in prostate cancer (Li, J. C; Wang, C; Pardee BA; Induction of Apoptosis by β-Lapachone in Human Prostate Cancer Celis; Cancer Res. 1995, 55, 3712).
Muitas patentes foram concedidas para o uso das lapachonas como quimioterápicos, porém, até o presente momento nenhuma patente apresentou o uso das lapachonas como agentes antivirais do vírus da dengue. A patente internacional WO0977797 menciona um grupo de moléculas da família das lapachonas que são utilizadas para tratamento do câncer de próstata em mamíferos. Tais moléculas induzem, de forma seletiva, a morte das células cancerosas do epitélio da próstata de mamíferos. Outro pedido internacional WO96033988 diz respeito ao uso de lapachonas e seus análogos sozinhos ou com quimioterapia ou radioterapia para indução da morte programada de células cancerosas. Principal fator para essa induzir a morte nas células cancerosas, está no fato dessas lapachonas e seus análogos, quando associados com um tratamento quimioterápico ou radioterápico, são inibidores irreversíveis da enzima topoisomerase freando o processo de replicação celular. Many patents have been granted for the use of lapachones as chemotherapeutic agents, but so far no patent has presented the use of lapachones as dengue virus antiviral agents. International patent WO0977797 mentions a group of lapachone family molecules that are used to treat prostate cancer in mammals. Such molecules selectively induce the death of cancer cells in mammalian prostate epithelium. Another international application WO96033988 relates to the use of lapachones and their analogs alone or with chemotherapy or radiotherapy to induce programmed cancer cell death. A major factor in inducing cancer cell death is the fact that these lapachones and their analogues, when associated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy, are irreversible inhibitors of the topoisomerase enzyme that hampers the process of cell replication.

Exemplo 1) Ensaios Inibidores do Vírus da Dengue Example 1) Dengue Virus Inhibitor Assays
Para realização dos testes das substâncias I a III frente ao vírus da dengue, comparativos com a Ribavirina, se utilizou um método de triagem onde células VERO eram colocadas em contato com estoques do vírus da dengue, em uma proporção de uma partícula virai infecciosa para 10 células por uma hora para a adsorção e entrada das partículas virais nas células. Após este tempo as células eram lavadas com solução salina e meio de cultura contendo 100 μΜ de cada um dos compostos e 200 μΜ de Ribavirina como controle positivo. Estas culturas eram incubadas a 37 °C por 72 h. Após este tempo uma alíquota do meio livre de células (sobrenadante) era coletada e processado para extração de RNA, seguido de transcrição reversa e reação de PCR em Tempo-Real utilizando iniciadores e sonda específicos para dengue do tipo 2. Aqueles compostos que mostravam inibição de pelo menos 10X na quantidade de RNA virai (progénie virai liberada no sobrenadante) em relação ao controle sem droga, seguiam para um ensaio de dose-resposta. Para este ensaio o procedimento era equivalente ao descrito acima, sendo que eram adicionadas diferentes concentrações dos compostos. Os resultados deste ensaio serviram para calcular a maior e menor porcentagem de inibição para cada composto. Desta forma, para as naftoquinonas do tipo II, LVM0137 e LVM0138 obteve-se, respectivamente 99 > 99,99% (nas concentrações de 25 e 12,5 μΜ, respectivamente). Exemplo2) Ensaios de replicação viral. For the testing of dengue virus substances I to III compared to Ribavirin, a screening method was used where VERO cells were placed in contact with dengue virus stocks, in a ratio of one infectious viral particle to 10. cells for one hour for adsorption and entry of viral particles into cells. After this time the cells were washed with saline and culture medium containing 100 μΜ of each compound and 200 μΜ of Ribavirin as positive control. These cultures were incubated at 37 ° C for 72 h. After this time an aliquot of the cell free medium (supernatant) was collected and processed for RNA extraction, followed by reverse transcription and Real-Time PCR reaction using dengue-specific primers and probe type 2. Those compounds that showed inhibition of at least 10X in the amount of viral RNA (viral progeny released in the supernatant) relative to the drug-free control, followed for a dose response assay. For this assay the procedure was equivalent to that described above, with different concentrations of compounds being added. The results of this assay served to calculate the highest and lowest inhibition percentages for each compound. Thus, for type II naphthoquinones, LVM0137 and LVM0138, 99> 99.99% (25 and 12.5 μΜ, respectively) were obtained respectively. Example 2) Viral Replication Assays.
Afim de confirmar o resultado do exemplo 1 , outros dois ensaios de medida da replicação virai foram realizados (TCID50 % e Ensaio de redução de plaque virai). No ensaio de TCID50 %, células VERO eram colocadas em contato com estoques do vírus da dengue. Após este tempo as células eram lavadas e meio de cultura contendo 50 μΜ de cada um dos compostos e 200 μΜ de Ribavirina era adicionado como controle positivo do ensaio. Estas culturas eram incubadas a 37 °C por 72 h. Após este tempo o sobrenadante era coletado e utilizado para infecção de nova cultura de células VERO em sextuplicata. O efeito citopático virai era observado diariamente e anotados os poços que apresentavam 50 % de efeito em relação ao controle sem vírus. Estes dados eram utilizados para o cálculo do título virai conforme descrito por Reed e Munch. Observou- se inibição de mais de 99 % do título virai para ambos os compostos, conforme descrito (tabela abaixo). O ensaio de redução de plaque virai é realizado a partir da infecção de monocamadas de células Vero em Placas de 6 poços, com cerca de 50 unidades infecciosas virais. Após a etapa de adsorção as monocamadas são lavadas e é acrescentado meio semi-sólido acrescido de diferentes concentrações dos compostos. As células são cultivadas por sete dias. Após este período as células são fixadas e coradas com o corante cristal violeta. As plaques virais são contadas manualmente. Calcula-se a porcentagem de inibição em relação ao controle de vírus. Para o composto LVM0137 houve inibição de 50 % do número de plaques na concentração de 6,2 μΜ e para o composto LVM0138 houve inibição de mais de 50 % na concentração de 3,1 μΜ, conforme demonstrado na tabela abaixo.

In order to confirm the result of Example 1, two other viral replication measurement assays were performed (TCID 50% and Viral Plaque Reduction Assay). In the 50% TCID assay, VERO cells were placed in contact with dengue virus stocks. After this time the cells were washed and culture medium containing 50 μΜ of each compound and 200 μΜ of Ribavirin was added as a positive assay control. These cultures were incubated at 37 ° C for 72 h. After this time the supernatant was collected and used for infection of new VERO cell culture in sextuplicate. The viral cytopathic effect was observed daily and the wells that showed 50% effect compared to the control without virus were noted. These data were used for the calculation of viral titer as described by Reed and Munch. More than 99% inhibition of viral titer was observed for both compounds as described (table below). The viral plaque reduction assay is performed from vero cell monolayer infection in 6-well plates with about 50 viral infectious units. After the adsorption step the monolayers are washed and semi-solid medium added with different concentrations of the compounds is added. The cells are cultured for seven days. After this period the cells are fixed and stained with the crystal violet dye. Viral plaques are counted manually. The inhibition percentage relative to virus control is calculated. Compound LVM0137 inhibited 50% of the number of plaques at a concentration of 6.2 μΜ and compound LVM0138 inhibited more than 50% at a concentration of 3.1 μΜ, as shown in the table below.
