Description

FOXM1 targeted degradation small molecule FOXM1-PROTAC and derivative and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biotechnology and biomedicine, and relates to FOXM1 targeted degradation small molecule FOXM1-PROTAC, a derivative and an application thereof.
Background
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) report of the world health organization indicates that the incidence of liver Cancer is 5 th after lung Cancer, breast Cancer and the like, the mortality is 3 rd after lung Cancer, colorectal Cancer and the like, and the liver Cancer is the only Cancer with the rising annual incidence of the five cancers with the highest mortality. The regional distribution of liver cancer is remarkably different in the world, and the incidence of liver diseases in developing countries is high. Risk factors include hepatitis b virus, hepatitis c virus, fatty liver, alcohol-related cirrhosis, smoking, obesity, diabetes, iron overload, and various dietary exposures.
Liver cancer has a poor prognosis. Only 5% to 15% of patients are eligible for surgical resection, which is only applicable to early stage patients and is usually free of cirrhosis due to reduced liver regeneration capacity; the risk of complications after right hepatectomy is higher compared to left hepatectomy. The treatment scheme for advanced liver cancer comprises: (a) through Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE), compared with conservative treatment of middle and late liver cancer, TACE can improve survival rate of 2 years by 23%; (b) oral sorafenib, a kinase inhibitor, is the most commonly accepted option for late-stage patients. However, less than one third of patients benefit from this treatment and within six months after the start of the regimen, resistance is evident. With long-term use, chemotherapeutic drugs, such as sorafenib, have problems such as toxicity or drug ineffectiveness. Thus, neither current ablative therapy nor chemotherapy is effective in improving the prognosis of this devastating disease. Further research is necessary to find better methods for treating liver cancer.
With the continuous development and research of medicine and molecular biology, it is gradually recognized that the occurrence and development of liver cancer is the evolution process of 'inflammation-hyperplasia-canceration' caused by the cooperation of multiple genes and the participation of multiple signal pathways. The research at home and abroad finds that the liver cancer is a solid tumor with a relatively complex molecular pathogenesis, and the occurrence and development of the liver cancer relate to the imbalance of multiple signal paths and are related to various genetic variations. According to the COSMIC Database data, the mutation frequency of 8 genes in the liver cancer gene mutation spectrum of western people is more than 5 percent, and the mutation frequency is mainly focused on signal paths such as genome instability, immortalization, Wnt and the like. According to GenomiCare data, more than 20 gene variation frequencies in Chinese population exceed 5%, mainly focusing on signal pathways such as genome instability, angiogenesis, cell cycle runaway, growth factors, PI3K-AKT-mTOR and the like.
Besides radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with the discovery and application of treatment means such as targeted therapy, gene therapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, immunotherapy and the like, more and better choices are provided for the treatment of liver cancer, and the liver cancer treatment is also an important component of the treatment of liver cancer. Molecular targeted drug therapy has significant efficacy in specific patients, and patients benefit from survival. However, the application of targeted drugs is limited mainly because the effective targets of the existing targeted drugs are few, and the corresponding molecular target detection needs to be carried out on patients before the appropriate targeted therapeutic drugs are selected. At present, VEGFR1-3, FGFR1-4, PDGFR alpha, RTK, KIT and RET are mainly used as targets related to liver cancer treatment and are all used clinically. Therefore, the key of the drug selection for the targeted therapy of liver cancer is the identification of the signal pathway driver and the liver cancer specific transcription factor related to pathogenesis.
FOXM1, an important transcription factor regulating cell cycle and cell progression, has been demonstrated that the FOXM1 regulatory network is a major predictor of poor prognosis in 18000 cancer patients in 39 human malignancies, which also reveals an important role of FOXM1 in cancer. However, it is not completely clear how FOXM1 exerts its oncogenic activity in human cells at all. One mechanism is associated with transcriptional activation of the FOXM1 target, which leads to a variety of pro-tumor effects, including enhanced cell proliferation. In addition, FOXM1 may act as an oncogene by interacting with other proteins, thereby supporting different oncogenic pathways. FOXM1 regulates key processes in tumorigenesis and progression. FOXM1, a typical proliferation-associated transcription factor, directly or indirectly activates expression of target genes at the transcriptional level and exhibits a spatiotemporal pattern whose dysregulation is involved in almost all characteristics of tumor cells. And a large amount of data and experiments prove that the expression level of FOXM1 is up-regulated in various hepatocellular carcinomas, and analysis of patient data shows that the expression level of FOXM1 is closely related to the prognosis of patients with liver cancer. FOXM1 is considered to be a fatal lesion of tumor, and becomes an important target for developing a new tumor marker and an anti-tumor drug for judging the occurrence and development of tumor. At present, the domestic related drug treatment targeting FOXM1 is still in the preclinical research stage, and no antitumor drug directly targeting FOXM1 is on the market or applied to the clinic.
The targeted degradation of proteins using proteolytic targeting chimeras (PROTACs) has become a new therapeutic approach in drug development. PROTACs mediate degradation of the desired target protein by hijacking the activity of E3 ubiquitin ligase for target protein ubiquitination and subsequent degradation by the 26S proteasome. Binding of proteins to ubiquitin, a small protein modifier, is essential for the 26S proteasome to regulate protein degradation. Although the ATP-dependent pathway of protein degradation was described at the end of the 20 th century 70 s, the use of this system for targeted protein degradation was first reported after 30 years. The proteolytic targeting chimera (PROTAC) is a heterobifunctional molecule consisting of three parts: (1) a ligand that binds to a target protein; (2) ligands for recruiting E3 ubiquitin ligase (E3 recruiting elements; E3RE) to facilitate ubiquitination of the target protein; (3) a linker connecting the ligands. To date, more than 100 articles have described PROTACs for targeted protein degradation and their use in chemical biology and drug development.
As a new and promising technology, PROTACs show great opportunity in the following respects. First, PROTACs have a particular sensitivity to drug-resistant targets. Chemotherapy has traditionally been the primary method of cancer treatment. Acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs impedes clinical use and leads to disease recurrence. As research on new targets and new drug discovery technologies progresses, another powerful strategy is to directly and specifically inhibit the function of oncogenic proteins or receptors through small molecules. Notably, the discovery of kinase inhibitors does not address the resistance of cancer therapies, and PROTACs can address the potential resistance faced by current therapies by eliminating the entire target to affect protein function, thereby eliminating the full function of the target, both enzymatic and nonenzymatic. In addition, PROTACs are less sensitive to increased target expression and target protein mutations, and because they have catalytic effects, low doses of PROTACs are required to exert their beneficial effects.
Based on PROTACs, the protein-based protein target fusion protein can deeply degrade target proteins, has sustainability, can quickly and strongly inhibit downstream signals, and can permanently inhibit the occurrence and development of tumors in vitro, so that the protein degradation by using a proteolysis targeting chimera becomes a hotspot mode of current tumor treatment. Therefore, the development of chimera PROTAC targeted to the target FOXM1 in the liver cancer cell is necessary.

Example 4 FOXM1-PROTAC can induce the degradation of FOXM1 in HepG2 cells
Firstly, the liver cancer cell HepG2 is mixed by 5 times 105Inoculating each cell/well in a 6-well cell culture plate, wherein the volume of a culture medium in each well is 2mL, and culturing for 24 hours;
adding FOXM1-PROTAC with different concentration gradients (0 μ M, 2 μ M, 5 μ M, 10 μ M, 20 μ M, 30 μ M, 50 μ M) for culturing for 16 hours, collecting cells, adding lysate to collect protein;
③ adding FOXM1-PROTAC with the same concentration gradient (20 mu M) to culture for different time (0h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 12h and 24h), collecting cells, adding lysate to collect protein;
preparing SDS-PAGE gel with the concentration of 10% according to the Yazyme gel preparation kit;
adding a proper amount of SDS-PAGE protein loading buffer 5X sample bf. into the collected protein sample, and mixing, wherein B-mercaptoethanol (500 mul bf +70 mul l B-mercaptoethanol) is added into the sample bf. The protein sample was mixed with sample bf and centrifuged for 10s at 12000 rpm. Denaturing the protein at 100 deg.C for 5-10 min. Centrifuge briefly at 12000rpm, and cool. After cooling to room temperature, the protein samples were loaded directly into SDS-PAGE gel loading wells. And aligning the sample loading groove according to the designed sequence, and slowly adding the sample and the pre-dyed protein Marker. Usually, the electrophoresis is stopped when bromophenol blue reaches near the bottom end of the gel during electrophoresis, or the electrophoresis is stopped when the target protein is expected to be properly separated according to the electrophoresis of the prestained protein molecular weight standard.
Sixthly, preparing a box and containing methanol, transfer bf, and removing the gel glass plate from the electrophoresis apparatus. The gel was removed and the concentrated gel and bromophenol blue at the lower end were excised with a razor blade. The length and width of the glue are measured with a ruler. Two pieces of filter paper of the same size and one piece of PVDF membrane were cut out. The membrane was shaken for 1min by treatment with methanol and then washed 5 times with RO water, 1 min/1 time. And then soaked with transfer bf for more than 10 minutes. Filter paper and glue were also soaked in transfer bf. The cotton blocks in the film converter can be cleaned by the idle time, then dried, and then wetted by a transfer bf, and the film converter blackboard is arranged in a sponge-filter paper-gel-PVDF film-filter paper-sponge sequence. The glue and the membrane are placed in sequence, and the contact surface of the glue and the membrane is noticed, so that air bubbles cannot exist. No air bubbles can be present between the membrane and the filter paper, and between the filter paper and the glue. The air bubbles can be removed by lightly rolling the glass tube back and forth with a smearing bar or a 15ml glass centrifuge tube. The double-layer effect of the filter paper is better. 260mA voltage for 100 min.
Seventhly, taking out the membrane with the protein surface facing upwards by using a pair of tweezers, and sealing in 5 percent of sealing liquid of skimmed milk powder (prepared by TBST, eg, 40mL of TBST solution and 2g of skimmed milk powder) for 1-1.5 h. The hybridization system was selected to be 5mL or 10mL, with reference to the primary antibody specification. If the amount of the primary antibody added is large, 5mL of hybridization system or even 3or 4mL is selected. The primary antibody was diluted with a diluent (1% blocking solution, eg, hybrid system 5 mL: 1mL blocking solution +4mL TBST or hybrid system 10 mL: 2mL blocking solution +8mL TBST) at the appropriate ratio, according to the instructions for the primary antibody. The primary antibody was recovered by incubation for 1h on a side-shaking table at room temperature or 4 ℃ with slow shaking. Washed 3 times with TBST, 5 min/time, and washed on a shaker with slow shaking. The secondary antibody was diluted in appropriate proportions with reference to the instructions for the secondary antibody. Incubate for one hour on a shaker with slow shaking. Washed 5 times with TBST, 5 min/time, and washed on a shaker with slow shaking. ECL Western fluorescent detection reagents were used to detect proteins. The results are shown in fig. 4, from which it can be seen that FOXM1-PROTAC degrades FOXM1 more over time, and FOXM1 degrades more at higher FOXM1-PROTAC concentrations over the same time.
Example 5 FOXM1-PROTAC can inhibit proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells and promote apoptosis
Inoculating 100 liver cancer cells HepG2 into a 6-hole cell culture plate in a volume of 2mL per hole of culture medium, and culturing for 24 hours; then 20 mu M FOXM1-PROTAC and a proper amount of fresh culture medium are added, the culture medium and the drug are replaced every two days by taking an unformed group as a control, the continuous culture is carried out until the cell mass contains more than 50 cells, after the cells of the experimental group and the control group are fixed by methanol, 0.1% of crystal violet staining is carried out, the number of formed clones in each group is counted, and the result is shown in figure 5A, and as can be seen from the figure, compared with the control group, the number of formed clones of the cells is obviously reduced after FOXM1-PROTAC is added, and the FOXM1-PROTAC can effectively inhibit the formation of the clones of the cells.
Secondly, enabling a 6-pore plate to overgrow the liver cancer cell HepG2 to be divided into 1: 2, inoculating the cells into a new 6-well cell culture plate, wherein the volume of a culture medium in each well is 2mL, culturing for 24 hours, scratching the cells by using a wall head after the cells grow, and washing away floating cells by using PBS (phosphate buffer solution); the scratch distance was recorded by microscopic photograph, 20 μ M FOXM1-PROTAC and appropriate amount of serum-free fresh medium were added, and the control group was not added with drug, floating cells were washed out after 48h, and the scratch distance was recorded by microscopic photograph, as shown in fig. 5B, it can be seen from the figure that FOXM1-PROTAC was added, the width of the scratch was wider, the migration of cells was slowed, and FOXM1-PROTAC was effective in inhibiting the migration of cells, compared with the control group.
