  • the present invention belongs to the technical field of biochemistry. Specifically, the present invention relates to an inhibitor polypeptide compound targeted to fibronectin-derived peptides (EDPs).
  • the polypeptide compound can be used to treat or prevent organ fibrosis and organ diseases. Use in medicines for fibrotic disorders; especially liver fibrosis and fibrotic disorders accompanied by liver diseases and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and fibrotic disorders accompanied by lung diseases.
  • Organ fibrosis is a characteristic manifestation of end-stage organ failure of many chronic diseases, which seriously endangers the health of the people and is an important cause of death of patients.
  • the main mechanism of fibrosis is that the body initiates a protective repair process in response to traumatic stimuli, but repeated abnormal healing and repair lead to disturbances in the internal environment of the tissue, excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), and destruction of tissue structure. This led to the occurrence of fibrosis (DCRockey, PDBell, JAHill, The New England journal of medicine 2015, 372, 1138-1149.).
  • liver fibrosis is the continuous occurrence of liver damage in the liver.
  • the ECM is continuously synthesized and degraded, resulting in a pathological process caused by imbalanced matrix deposition.
  • Liver fibrosis is an important pathological feature of chronic liver disease, and it is also the main intermediate relief for the further development of liver cirrhosis.
  • the repair reaction after injury will cause many changes in the ECM microenvironment.
  • liver fibrosis and cirrhosis There are many reasons that affect liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. For example, in Western countries, excessive drinking, hepatitis virus infection and fatty liver disease are the most common inducing factors. In addition, chronic immune-mediated damage can also lead to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, such as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) ( K. Bottcher, M. Pinzani, Advanced drug delivery reviews 2017, 121, 3-8.).
  • PSC primary sclerosing cholangitis
  • PBC primary biliary cholangitis
  • AIH autoimmune hepatitis
  • liver fibrosis is not controlled and treated, it will develop into cirrhosis, which will eventually lead to liver damage and liver necrosis. Once cirrhosis develops, the patient is at a very high risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (AHAli, KDLindor, Expert opinion on pharmacotherapy 2016, 17, 1809-1815.), which brings great pain and even threats to the patient. Life, therefore, must rely on liver transplantation for treatment. Therefore, it can be seen that liver fibrosis is a serious threat to the health of people in our country and the world, and effective drugs are urgently needed for treatment!
  • OCA obeticholic acid
  • FDA U.S. Food and Drug Administration
  • OCA has prominent adverse reactions such as itching and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction during treatment.
  • OCA is expensive, and pharmacoeconomic analysis believes that OCA is not optimistic in terms of cost-effectiveness ratio, and it needs to be further optimized and improved. Based on the above reasons, it is particularly important to develop drugs with fewer side effects, more targeted and more economical treatments for fibrosis.
  • Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic, progressive, and fibrotic interstitial pneumonia with unknown etiology and pathogenesis. It is characterized by abnormal deposition of ECM leading to extensive lung remodeling (L.Richeldi, HRCollard, MG Jones, The Lancet 2017, 389, 1941-1952.). It is more common in the elderly, with a median survival rate of 2-3 years. Pathogenesis and risk factors, including genetic factors, environmental exposure, smoking, chronic viral infections and certain comorbidities. Histopathological examination usually shows extensive alveolar scar formation, that is, fibrous scars containing myofibroblasts replace normal alveoli. IPF cannot be cured.
  • the purpose of treatment is to delay disease progression, improve life, and prolong survival, including anti-fibrotic treatment with nintedanib and pirfenidone, non-drug treatment and pulmonary fibrosis (DJLederer, FJ Martinez, The New England journal of medicine 2018,378,1811-1823.).

  • non-drug treatment and pulmonary fibrosis
  • COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • small airway obstruction chronic obstructive bronchiolitis
  • emphysema Airway examination confirmed poor reversibility of airway obstruction, resulting in air retention in the lungs and shortness of breath for physical activity.
  • the most common risk factor for COPD is smoking. Although the mechanism of COPD is still poorly understood, the disease is associated with chronic inflammation that is often resistant to corticosteroids.
  • COPD involves accelerated lung aging and abnormal repair mechanisms that may be driven by oxidative stress (K.F. Rabe, H.
  • Fibronectin is the most stable protein in ECM. It is the main component of elastic fibers. It exists in a variety of elastic soft tissues, such as arterial walls, ligaments, lungs, bladder, and skin (ROBERT M.SENIOR, J . Clin. Invest. 1982, 70, 614-618.). Elastin is synthesized from the fetal period, reaches its peak at birth, and gradually decreases or even disappears after puberty. The half-life of elastic fiber is as long as 70 years, and the re-synthesis rate is low. Under normal pathological conditions, elastic fibers are the main component of tissue connections and are used to maintain tissue elasticity. But in the pathological state of the disease, elastic fibers will be abnormally synthesized and degraded.
  • Degradation of elastic fibers will produce a series of derived peptides (EDPs), which have different amino acid sequences, which can regulate a series of cell signals by activating downstream receptors, such as Ras-Raf-1-MEK1 /2-ERK1/2; Gi-p110 ⁇ -Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2; cAMP-PKA-B-Raf-MEK1/2-ERK1/2; NO-cGMP-PKG-Raf-1-MEK1 /2-ERK1/2 or Gi-p110 ⁇ -Akt-caspase9-Bad-Foxo3A (L.Duca, C.
  • EDPs derived peptides
  • EDPs are closely related to the development of many diseases. Studies have found that excessive production of EDPs can lead to metabolic disorders in the liver, the accumulation of inflammation, and promote the development of liver diseases. Therefore, inhibiting the activity of EDPs must have a certain improvement effect on liver fibrosis (C. Ntayi, ALLabrousse, R. Debret, P. Birembaut, G. Bellon, F. Antonicelli, W. Hornebeck, P.

本发明属于生物化学技术领域,具体而言,本发明涉及一种靶向于纤连蛋白衍生肽(EDPs)的抑制剂多肽化合物,该多肽化合物可用于治疗或预防器官纤维化及器官疾病伴随的纤维化病症的药物中的用途;特别是肝纤维化及肝脏疾病伴随的纤维化病症和特发性肺纤维化及肺脏疾病伴随的纤维化病症。
背景技术
器官纤维化是许多慢性疾病终末期器官衰竭的特征性表现,严重危害了人民群众的身体健康,是造成患者死亡的重要原因。目前认为纤维化主要机制是机体应对损伤性刺激启动了保护性的修复过程,但是反复异常的愈合修复导致了组织内环境的紊乱,细胞外基质(ECM)的过度积累,以及组织结构的破坏,从而造成了纤维化的发生(D.C.Rockey,P.D.Bell,J.A.Hill,The New England journal of medicine2015,372,1138-1149.)。
很多慢性疾病末期器官都会出现纤维化的特征,例如:肝脏纤维化是肝脏持续的发生肝损伤,组织发生修复反应时ECM不断地合成、降解所导致基质沉积不平衡而引起的病理学过程,是涉及复杂的细胞及分子机制的动态过程。肝纤维化是慢性肝病重要的病理特征,也是进一步向肝硬化发展的主要中间缓解。损伤后的修复反应会引起很多ECM微环境的改变,在这个过程中,静止的肝星状细胞会被激活变成活化的肝星状细胞,导致肝星状细胞形态及功能的改变,具体表现为ECM的异常合成与降解(L.Petitclerc,G.Sebastiani,G.Gilbert,G.Cloutier,A.Tang,Journal of magnetic resonance imaging:JMRI2017,45,1276-1295.)。而ECM的合成与降解之间的不平衡就会导致ECM的大量积累进而形成纤维化,而纤维化的发生会进一步的加重肝星状细胞的激活,使得纤维化不断地加重。影响肝纤维化和肝硬化的原因有很多,比如在西方国家,过量的饮酒,肝炎病毒的感染和脂肪肝疾病的发生是最为常见的诱导因素。此外, 慢性免疫介导的损伤也可以导致肝纤维化和肝硬化的发生,如原发性硬化性胆管炎(PSC)、原发性胆道胆管炎(PBC)和自身免疫性肝炎(AIH)(K.Bottcher,M.Pinzani,Advanced drug delivery reviews2017,121,3-8.)。
肝脏纤维化如果不加以控制和治疗,就会发展为肝硬化,最终将会导致肝功能受损和肝坏死的发生。而一旦发展为肝硬化,患者则处于极高危的患肝细胞癌的风险中(A.H.Ali,K.D.Lindor,Expert opinion on pharmacotherapy2016,17,1809-1815.),给患者带来巨大的痛苦甚至威胁其生命,从而必须依靠肝脏移植来治疗。所以可见肝纤维化严重威胁着我国以及世界人民的健康,亟待有效的药物来治疗!
然而迄今为止,经美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准的用于治疗纤维化的药物只有奥贝胆酸(OCA)。但是OCA在治疗过程中存在较为突出的瘙痒和高密度脂蛋白胆固醇降低等不良反应,部分患者甚至因为严重的瘙痒而被迫停药,且有部分患者还出现严重的心血管事件。目前OCA价格昂贵,药物经济学分析认为OCA在费用-疗效比方面并不乐观,尚有待进一步优化提高。综合以上各种原因,研发更少副作用、更强针对性及更经济的治疗纤维化的药物显得尤为重要。
而另一个受人们普遍关注的就是肺纤维化的发生。特发性肺纤维化(IPF)是一种病因及发病机制不明的慢性、进行性、纤维化性的间质性肺炎,其特征是ECM的异常沉积导致广泛的肺重构(L.Richeldi,H.R.Collard,M.G.Jones,The Lancet2017,389,1941-1952.)。老年人多见,中位生存率2-3年。发病机制及危险因素,包括遗传因素、环境暴露、吸烟、慢性病毒感染和某些合并症。其组织病理学检查通常显示广泛的肺泡瘢痕形成,即用含有成肌纤维细胞的纤维性瘢痕代替正常肺泡。IPF不可能治愈,治疗目的是延缓疾病进展、改善生活治疗、延长生存期,包括以尼达尼布、吡非尼酮等抗纤维化药物治疗、非药物治疗和肺纤维化(D.J.Lederer,F.J.Martinez,The New England journal of medicine2018,378,1811-1823.)。尽管我们对IPF病理的认识有了新进展,但仍然没有治疗IPF的方法,目前可用的抗纤维化治疗方法只延缓了该病的进展,不能完全停止该病的进展。
此外在引起肺纤维化方面,慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)是一种具有高全球发病率和死亡率的常见疾病,特征包括小气道阻塞(慢性阻塞性细支气管炎)和肺气肿,通过气道检查证实了气道阻塞的可逆性较差,导致肺内空气滞留和 对体力活动的呼吸短促。COPD最常见的危险因素是吸烟。尽管对COPD的机制仍知之甚少,但该疾病与通常对皮质类固醇耐药的慢性炎症有关。此外,COPD涉及加速的肺部衰老和可能由氧化应激驱动的异常修复机制(K.F.Rabe,H.Watz,The Lancet2017,389,1931-1940.)。除了鼓励戒烟之外,有效的长效支气管扩张剂、家庭氧疗可以控制稳定疾病,但这些药物不能减缓潜在的疾病进程,因此不会降低疾病的进展或死亡率。需要更多的研究来更好地了解疾病的机制,并开发出减少疾病活动和进展的新疗法。
纤连蛋白(Elastin)是ECM中最稳定的一种蛋白,是弹性纤维的主要成分,存在于多种弹性软组织中,如动脉壁、韧带、肺、膀胱和皮肤等(ROBERT M.SENIOR,J.Clin.Invest.1982,70,614-618.)。弹性蛋白从胎儿时期进行合成,出生时达到巅峰,青春期后逐渐的减少甚至合成消失。弹性纤维的半衰期长达70年之久,重新合成率较低。在正常的病理状态下,弹性纤维是组织连接的主要成份,用于维持组织的弹性。但是在疾病的病理状态下,弹性纤维会被异常的合成以及降解。弹性纤维降解会产生一系列的衍生肽(EDPs),这种由弹性纤维降解的衍生肽具有不同的氨基酸序列,通过激活下游受体进而调节一系列的细胞信号,比如Ras-Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2;Gi-p110γ-Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2;cAMP-PKA-B-Raf-MEK1/2-ERK1/2;NO-cGMP-PKG-Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2或者Gi-p110γ-Akt-caspase9-Bad-Foxo3A(L.Duca,C.Blanchevoye,B.Cantarelli,C.Ghoneim,S.Dedieu,F.Delacoux,W.Hornebeck,A.Hinek,L.Martiny,L.Debelle,The Journal of biological chemistry2007,282,12484-12491.)。EDPs与很多疾病的发展都具有非常密切的联系。研究发现,EDPs的过量产生可导致肝脏的代谢紊乱,炎症的积累,促进肝脏疾病的发展。所以抑制EDPs的活性肯定对肝纤维化具有一定改善作用(C.Ntayi,A.L.Labrousse,R.Debret,P.Birembaut,G.Bellon,F.Antonicelli,W.Hornebeck,P.Bernard,The Journal of investigative dermatology2004,122,256-265.)。虽然IPF的发病机制仍不清楚,但ECM重塑异常被认为有助于胶原肺部疤痕组织的不断沉积,有研究推测ECM的异常重构在疾病的发展和(或)进展中起着重要的作用。
综上所述,目前临床研究的药物在治疗纤维化疾病方面仍存在较大的不足和安全风险,抗纤维化领域更加安全、有效的新靶点药物研发仍是一项艰巨的科学任务,而相应的药物分子的设计合成更是迫在眉睫!
本发明专利涉及一种新型的靶向于纤连蛋白衍生肽(EDPs)的抑制剂多肽 化合物,可以与体内循环的EDPs结合进而阻断其生物效应。通过体外细胞模型活性筛选和体内动物模型活性筛选,对系列活性多肽进行药效学评价。目前还没有类似关于本领域化合物与纤维化相关性的研究文献报道。所以本发明基于EDPs的构象以及结合位点设计一种具有生物活性的结合EDPs的多肽抑制剂,势必在治疗器官纤维化药物研发方面提供了新的思路及科学研究方向。

3.实验方法:
H&E染色:取石蜡包埋的组织切片,60℃烘1h。脱蜡水化:二甲苯20分钟→二甲苯20分钟→无水酒精15分钟→无水酒精15分钟→95%酒精10分钟→90%酒精5分钟→80%酒精5分钟。染色:苏木精7分钟→自来水冲洗干净→1%盐酸乙醇分化1s→自来水冲洗→伊红染色15s-20s→自来水冲洗。脱水透明:75%酒精1s→85%酒精1s→95%酒精1s→100%酒精1s→二甲苯1s→二甲苯1s。封片晾干30分钟,树胶封片。

免疫组化:烘片、脱蜡,之后放入双蒸水中浸泡5分钟。抗原修复:将放病理切片的架子放于盛有柠檬酸的缓冲液(PH=6.0)烧杯中,高温高压15分钟;取出烧杯,静置在室温待温度下降至室温,然后取出片子,放入3.0%双氧水中10分钟,以阻断内源性过氧化物酶活性,之后用PBS洗涤3次,每次5分钟。利用1.0%BSA对组织进行封闭1h。去除1.0%BSA,按说明书推荐比例滴加Collagen I(I型胶原蛋白)抗体于组织上,4℃过夜;第二天取出病理切片,待恢复室温之后加入连有辣根过氧化物酶的二抗,37℃孵育60分钟,然后用DAB(二氨基联苯胺)(TH&Ermo Scientific,USA)显色;用苏木素染液复染,用自来水冲洗5分钟,1%盐酸乙醇分化,再用自来水洗5分钟,脱水,风干,封片,拍照(H&E染色液和天狼星红染色液购自于上海生工生物工程有限公司,Collagen I抗体购自于CST公司)。
4.结果分析:
参照图5,结果显示:H&E染色:正常组对照组和假手术盐水对照组小鼠肺组织结构清晰,肺泡壁未见增厚,肺泡上皮结构完整,未见炎性细胞浸润;Masson染色:正常组对照组和假手术盐水对照组仅有少量胶原纤维被染成蓝色。跟博来霉素模型组相比,模型治疗组各组小鼠在分别给予150.0μg/kg系列化合物1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22治疗后,各治疗模型组小鼠肺纤维化得到了显著的治疗改善。给药14天后,H&E染色、Masson染色可以看出:博来霉素组肺泡间隔明显增宽,可见大量成纤维细胞及基质填充;给予1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22多肽化合物治疗后可见各治疗组肺脏纤维化程度较博来霉素对照组显著减轻。
从α-SMA、Collagen1免疫组化观察到博来霉素组肺泡间隔明显增宽,可见大量黄染的纤维连接蛋白填充在肺实质内;给予1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22多肽化合物治疗后肺实质内有纤维连接蛋白较博来霉素组明显减少。说明给药治疗后显著抑制了肺组织α-SMA、Collagen 1的表达。以上结果说明了,多肽化合物1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22能够显著治疗改善肺纤维化。
纤维化疾病的发生发展过程与TGF-β和MMP-9诱导的EMT过程有关。基质金属蛋白酶(MMPs)是降解基质的蛋白酶,降解细胞外基质的所有成分。它们参与肺纤维化的病理生理过程,在细胞外基质的异常重构和基底膜的破坏中发挥重要作用,促进炎症细胞和成纤维细胞的募集。在肺纤维化动物模型和患者中MMP‐9的表达增加,高于正常的MMP‐9水平可能会破坏正常的组织结构,并增加炎性细胞向疾病部位的迁移。为了进一步探讨多肽药物对博来霉素诱导的肺纤维化的抑制作用机制,我们通过ELISA检测各组小鼠血清中TGFβ、MMP9细胞因子的表达情况。参照图6-A,与正常对照组和假手术盐水对照组相比,博来霉素模型组肺MMP‐9显著增加;给予1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22多肽化合物均能显著降低小鼠血清中MMP9的浓度,这可能与肺纤维化的减弱有关。我们推测其机理应该与TGF-β通路相关,参见图6-B,ELISA的结果表明,1、5、7、11、12、13、17、18、21和22多肽化合物均能显著降低小鼠血清中TGF-β的浓度。
综合上述实验结果表明,本发明的多肽化合物抑制了ECM的积累以及肺组织α-SMA、Collagen 1的表达,可用于治疗肝纤维化及肝脏疾病伴随的纤维化病症和特发性肺纤维化及肺脏疾病伴随的纤维化病症。
