Description

倍半萜内酯类化合物在制备治疗视神经炎药物上的应用 技术领域
本发明属于自身免疫性疾病的医药领域，具体涉及倍半萜内酯类化合物在制备治疗视神经炎药物上的应用。
 背景技术
视神经脊髓炎（Neuromyelitis Optica, NMO）是一种累及视神经和脊髓的脱髓鞘疾病。该疾病最早的报道见于 1872 年，最初被认为是一种单病程发病的中枢神经系统病变。在亚洲国家，关于NMO的报道较多，仅在我国，目前就有超过30万的NMO患者。在神经眼科门诊，经典NMO 相关的视神经炎（C-NMO-ON）主要表现为双眼同时或相继发病，视力下降迅速，可伴有或不伴有眼痛；视功能恢复较差，通常会遗留双眼或至少一眼的严重视力障碍。而复发性 NMO 相关的视神经炎（R-NMO-ON）多为单眼发病，易复发，视功能损害可部分恢复但随着发病次数增加恢复逐渐减弱。相当一部分NMO的脊髓损害发生在视力下降之后，可间隔数天、数周、数月甚至数年，最终导致截瘫、感觉及括约肌功能障碍，重者可致呼吸肌麻痹。由于复发性NMO在初期临床表现上与复发性视神经炎有许多共同特点，因此极易被误诊为后者，这一方面延误了治疗时机，另一方面视神经炎的治疗手段会加重NMO的病情，造成更严重的后果。
在很长一段时间，对NMO是独立的疾病还是多发硬化症(Multiple Sclerosis,MS)的亚型一直存在着争议，近些年的研究发现血清中水通道蛋白4（Aquaporin 4,AQP4）自身抗体(AQP4-Ab)是NMO诊断中非常特异的一项指标，在NMO诊断中有较高的敏感性（68-91%）和特异性（85-99%）。
NMO 的特殊性是由于其特殊的发病机制造成的。进一步的研究表明，AQP4-Ab和中枢神经系统(Central nervous system，CNS)中的星形胶质细胞终足上的水通道蛋白 4（ aquaporin 4,AQP4）有着特异性的结合。目前已知AQP4-Ab对星形胶质细胞的伤害作用可以通过补体依赖的细胞毒性和抗体依赖的细胞毒性两种途径来实现。根据Verkman 研究团队的最新报道，向脑实质中注射AQP4-Ab能引起NMO 样的组织病变。具体病理改变包括：星形胶质细胞损伤、少突胶质细胞减少、髓鞘丢失以及神经元凋亡。这种现象与患者体内发生的病理变化有部分相似之处，因此可以用来研究 NMO 发病过程中在细胞水平上的致病机制。目前关于 NMO 的致病机制较为一致的观点是 AQP4-Ab先造成了星形胶质细胞的死亡，然后才引起了脱髓鞘病变，在这个过程中伴随小胶质细胞的异常激活，释放大量炎性因子，形成NMO疾病炎性致病微环境。围绕AQP4的研究及AQP4-Ab的发现，才最终将NMO从多发硬化症中分离出来。
 技术问题
目前NMO的治疗主要包括急性期的治疗和缓解期的治疗。急性期治疗的目的在于尽量减少神经系统功能障碍并促进疾病的恢复，目前主要包括大剂量甲泼尼龙冲击治疗、血浆置换、静脉注射免疫球蛋白及环磷酰胺等；缓解期治疗的目的主要在于减少疾病复发的次数及减轻复发的严重性，主要为免疫抑制剂的应用，包括硫唑嘌呤、吗替麦考酚酯、米托蒽醌、甲氨蝶呤、利妥昔单抗等等。但是，目前现有的治疗手段均是广泛的抑制全身的免疫系统，减轻全身自身免疫反应，患者的全身副作用较大，有引发严重感染的风险，且治疗方法容易引发激素耐受从而导致治疗失效。
因此，NMO严重缺乏安全有效的药物，临床需求未能满足，研发治疗该疾病的新药，需求非常迫切。

 本发明的最佳实施方式
下面结合附图对本发明进行详细描述，本部分的描述仅是示范性和解释性，不应对本发明的保护范围有任何的限制作用。此外，本领域技术人员根据本文件的描述，可以对本文件中实施例中以及不同实施例中的特征进行相应组合。
实施例1
本实施例所研究的用于制备治疗视神经脊髓炎药物的倍半萜内酯类化合物分子式如图1所示，又称为ACT001，ACT001化学名称为：(3R,3aS,9R,9aS,9bS)-3-((二甲基胺基)甲基)-9-羟基-6,9-二甲基-3,3a,4,5,7,8,9,9a-八氢化薁并[4,5-b]呋喃-2(9bH)-酮富马酸盐，是一种含笑内酯衍生物。分子式如图1所示。本实施例使用ACT001对AQP4自身免疫性抗体阳性视神经脊髓炎患者进行治疗研究。
药理药效实验如下：
1、我们首先对活性成分进行了体外试验，根据体外试验结果显示，ACT001在体外可抑制BV-2细胞的增殖，其IC50值为23. 6μM。并且能够在10μM 显著降低被LPS激活的小胶质细胞炎性因子（TNF-α，IL-6，NO）的释放，降低小胶质细胞炎性反应。
同时，在建立NMO动物模型前，首先对Lewis大鼠行脊髓鞘内置管手术，该手术可通过控制PE10软管的长度（7cm），将出口置于大鼠脊髓腰椎第一节的位置。脊髓鞘内置管术术后的Lewis大鼠。手术后第二天，大鼠行动与正常大鼠无异，将建模成功的大鼠分为三组，把NMO患者血清以及补体系统各10μL注射入插管成功后的大鼠的软管中，每隔四天，补充一次。给药方案为，模型对照组6只动物每日灌胃给与生理盐水，连续15日；激素组8只动物，每日灌胃给予注射用甲泼尼龙琥珀溶液，剂量为30mg/kg，连续15日；ACT001组6只动物，每日灌胃给予ACT001溶液，剂量为60mg/kg，连续15日。每天观察动物状态，根据动物症状记录行为学评分。结果显示，ACT001组动物耐受良好，相比生理盐水对照组，疾病症状得到显著缓解，ACT001组与激素治疗组相比，缓解效果类似，综合评分基本持平。
然后我们拟将ACT001用于治疗视神经脊髓炎。ACT001可有效抑制小胶质细胞的炎性反应，能够显著降低包括NO、TNF-α、IL-6在内的炎性因子的释放。我们首先应用体外MTT法、CCK8法评价ACT001对小胶质细胞BV2增殖活性的影响，结果表明ACT001体外有抑制BV2细胞增殖的作用，具体表现为ACT001对BV2细胞的IC 50值为23.6±2.34μM，见表1、图2。

    2 分：尾部无张力或中度步态异常；双后肢无力，被动翻身后可以恢复；
    3 分：双后肢瘫痪。被动翻身后不能恢复，但给予刺激后可以挪动；
    4 分：双后肢瘫痪。前肢瘫痪或肌力减弱并有尿便失禁；
    5 分：濒死状态或死亡。
    症状处于两者标准之间者以±0.5计。
实验结果表明，给药期间，ACT001组动物耐受良好，相比生理盐水对照组，疾病症状得到显著缓解，ACT001组与激素治疗组相比，缓解效果类似，行为学评分基本持平。实验结果如表2和图6所示：
表2 各组动物行为学评分
Figure 31577dest_path_image003
注：与生理盐水比较， *P<0.05 ， ** P<0.01 ， *** P<0.001
图6是 动物模型行为学评分。根据表2和图6可以看出ACT001能够显著降低NMO动物模型行为学评分，改善NMO疾病模型症状，并且作用效果不弱于激素。
表3是体内药效学试验
Figure 513374dest_path_image004
Figure 300939dest_path_image005
由上述结果可以看出，在治疗NMO方面，ACT001具有显著优势。通过开展ACT001体外活性测试，测得ACT001对BV-2小胶质细胞的IC50值为23.6μM，且可显著降低NO、TNF-α、IL-6在内的炎性因子的释放，从而抑制由LPS刺激引发的小胶质细胞炎性反应。
在视神经脊髓炎的动物模型中，通过实验结果发现ACT001能够显著缓解视神经脊髓炎动物模型的临床症状，连续给药15天，生理盐水照组的行为学评分为3.17±0.26，而ACT001组的行为学评分为2.00±0.32，相较于激素组的行为学评分2.31±0.26，ACT001与其基本持平。说明ACT001可以替代激素成为临床上NMO疾病的一种全新的治疗方式。
我们首选ACT001，除ACT001外，我们按照上述实验，含笑内酯的衍生物及其盐也具有能够治疗视神经脊髓炎的作用。
上述实施例为本发明较佳的实施方式，但本发明的实施方式并不受上述实施例的限制，其他的任何未背离本发明的精神实质与原理下所作的改变、修饰、替代、组合、简化，均应为等效的置换方式，都包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
