《作用》
RNase H2阻害物質が前立腺癌の治療に有効であるメカニズムは、詳細に解析されているわけではないが、以下のように推定することができる。RNase H2阻害物質は、RNase H2のmRNAの発現を阻害すること、RNase H2タンパク質の発現を阻害すること、RNase H2の機能(活性)を阻害することによって、RNase H2の活性が亢進している前立腺がんを抑制することができる。例えば、RNase H2の発現又は活性を抑制することによって、がん抑制遺伝子p53発現量を増加、及び/又はAR発現量を減少させることで、前立腺がん細胞の増殖を抑制できると推定される。

《Action》
Although the mechanism by which RNase H2 inhibitors are effective in treating prostate cancer has not been analyzed in detail, it can be presumed as follows. The RNase H2 inhibitor inhibits the expression of RNase H2 mRNA, inhibits the expression of RNase H2 protein, and inhibits the function (activity) of RNase H2, thereby increasing the activity of RNase H2. Cancer can be suppressed. For example, by suppressing the expression or activity of RNase H2, it is presumed that the proliferation of prostate cancer cells can be suppressed by increasing the expression level of the tumor suppressor gene p53 and/or decreasing the expression level of AR.
The RNase H2 inhibitory compound of the present invention can suppress prostate cancer in which RNase H2 activity is enhanced by inhibiting the function (activity) of RNase H2. 1 and R 2 each have a 5- to 6-membered aromatic heterocyclic group, a phenyl group, a cycloalkyl group having 5 to 6 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group having 3 to 8 carbon atoms, thereby exhibiting RNase H2 inhibitory activity. presumed to indicate
RNase H2阻害物質が前立腺癌の治療に有効であるメカニズムは、詳細に解析されているわけではないが、以下のように推定することができる。RNase H2阻害物質は、RNase H2のmRNAの発現を阻害すること、RNase H2タンパク質の発現を阻害すること、RNase H2の機能(活性)を阻害することによって、RNase H2の活性が亢進している前立腺がんを抑制することができる。例えば、RNase H2の発現又は活性を抑制することによって、がん抑制遺伝子p53発現量を増加、及び/又はAR発現量を減少させることで、前立腺がん細胞の増殖を抑制できると推定される。
本発明のRNase H2阻害化合物は、RNase H2の機能(活性)を阻害することによって、RNase H2の活性が亢進している前立腺がんを抑制することができるが、特に下記式(1)のR1及びR2に、それぞれ5~6員の芳香族複素環基、フェニル基、炭素数5~6のシクロアルキル基、又は炭素数3~8のアルキル基を有することにより、RNase H2阻害活性を示すものと推定される。
Although the mechanism by which RNase H2 inhibitors are effective in treating prostate cancer has not been analyzed in detail, it can be presumed as follows. The RNase H2 inhibitor inhibits the expression of RNase H2 mRNA, inhibits the expression of RNase H2 protein, and inhibits the function (activity) of RNase H2, thereby increasing the activity of RNase H2. Cancer can be suppressed. For example, by suppressing the expression or activity of RNase H2, it is presumed that the proliferation of prostate cancer cells can be suppressed by increasing the expression level of the tumor suppressor gene p53 and/or decreasing the expression level of AR.

In this example, the effects of RNase H2 inhibitory compounds on proliferation of prostate cancer cells were examined in vivo. 22Rv1 cells were subcutaneously implanted in BALB/c nude mice, and after confirmation of tumor formation, castration was performed to prepare CRPC model mice.RNase H2i# 1 and #2 were intraperitoneally administered to CRPC model mice at 0.5 mg/mouse/dose, 5 times/week, respectively, and the effect on tumor growth was examined. As a result, tumor growth in mice administered with RNase H2i# 1 and #2 was significantly suppressed compared to controls (Fig. 9).
