Biological activity:
1. drug release of glycosylated JAK inhibitor prodrugs (compound of formula 1 or compound 1) in different tissue fluids
Male SD rats (200-220 g) were sacrificed by isoflurane and then midline incision. The stomach, small intestine, large intestine contents were separately collected and diluted with an equal volume of buffer (gastric contents were diluted with acetate buffer at pH 2.2 and other tissue contents were diluted with phosphate buffer at pH 6.8). Shaking for 10min to obtain tissue content homogenate, and storing at-80deg.C. Adding 500 mu L of compound 1 with the concentration of 100 mu M into 500 mu L of buffer solution corresponding to 16 mu L of tissue content homogenate, respectively shaking and incubating at 37 ℃ for 2 hours, respectively taking 100 mu L of reaction solution, centrifuging at 15000rpm for 5 minutes after high-temperature treatment for 1 minute, taking 60 mu L of supernatant for HPLC analysis (elution condition of HPLC: AGILENT ECLIPSE XDB-C18 (4.6 x 250nm,5 mu M), pure water of A solution (0.1% TFA), acetonitrile of B solution (0.1% TFA), the flow rate of 1mL/min, the detection wavelength of 265nm, gradient elution, the elution time of 20 minutes, and the concentration of B solution rising from 0% to 5%), and calculating the original drug release efficiency of the compound 1 in different tissue solutions.
TABLE I stability of Compound 1 in different tissue fluids (active principle release efficiency%)
The stability results of glycosylated JAK inhibitors (compound of formula 1 or compound 1) in different tissue fluids (stomach, small intestine, large intestine) indicate that they remain substantially stable in the stomach and small intestine portions and are not degraded to release the original drug, whereas in the large intestine contents most of the glycosylated JAK inhibitors are degraded to release the original drug, small molecule JAK inhibitors, wherein the drug release effects of L-fucose and D-xylose are not ideal.
2. Pharmacodynamic effects of compound 1 in mice model of p-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (DSS) induced ulcerative colitis.
Colitis mice were modeled as 7 week old male BALB/c mice, divided into 20 groups of 5 mice at random. Acute colitis was induced in mice by 1 week modeling with 2.5% DSS in drinking water, and colitis mice were evaluated for modeling by observing changes in body weight, hematochezia, stool shape, and other disease activity (DAI score). After modeling was successful, compound 1 was administered 1 time per day (5 μmol/mg/day) by gavage, for 7 consecutive days, with conventional drinking water during treatment. The effect of compound 1 on colitis mice was assessed by histopathological scoring of the mice.
Pathological scoring criteria for exterior, colon tissue
The results of histopathological scoring of the mice in the colitis model after drug treatment are shown in figure 1.
The results of histopathological scoring of compound 1 in a mouse model of colitis indicate that most glycosylated JAK inhibitors have significant anti-inflammatory effects. If the small molecule JAK inhibitor (such as III, IV and V) has weak anti-inflammatory effect on colonitis, the corresponding glycosylated prodrug shows insignificant anti-inflammatory effect, if the small molecule JAK inhibitor has strong anti-inflammatory effect on colonitis, the corresponding glycosylated prodrug shows significant anti-inflammatory effect, and after the JAK inhibitor is glycosylated, the anti-inflammatory effect of the prodrug in vivo is significantly stronger than that of the prodrug, which means that the prodrug has colon targeted drug release effect after glycosylation, and the anti-inflammatory effect in vivo is enhanced.
3. Rat oral pharmacokinetics of glycosylated JAK inhibitor 1-j-I
The representative compound 1-j-I with the best therapeutic effect on colitis in vivo was selected and evaluated for its pharmacokinetic properties in small intestine, colon and plasma after oral administration to rats. Compound 1-j-I (20 mg/kg) was orally administered to male Sprague Dawley rats (n=3/time point). At each time point (0.5, 1, 3,6, 8 and 24 hours), plasma samples were collected by cardiac puncture and small intestine and colon tissue samples were collected and small intestine and colon tissues were weighed. Plasma and tissue samples were prepared by extraction with 200 μl of acetonitrile and quantified by LC-MS/MS. (LC-MS/MS condition parameters are as follows: liquid chromatography separation is usedNX-C18 (50 mm. Times.2 mm,3 μm) column was eluted with a gradient of 0.3mL min -1 with 0.1% formic acid and pure methanol as mobile phases. Adopting electrospray ionization source, positive ion mode and multi-reaction monitoring scanning)
Plasma and intestinal Wu Pa Tinib concentrations after oral administration of 1-j-I in rats
The experimental results show that only a small amount of the original drug Wu Pati Ni is detected in the small intestine and blood plasma after the 1-j-I is orally taken, which indicates that the glycosylated prodrug 1-j-I cannot be absorbed in the small intestine and enter the blood circulation, and the original drug component with high concentration of at least 6 hours can be detected in the colon, which indicates that the glycosylated prodrug can realize colon targeted drug release.
Whether or not the JAK inhibitor has an effect of targeted treatment of colitis after glycosylation depends on the experimental results of the present invention, mainly on whether or not 1) the JAK inhibitor itself has an anti-colitis activity. According to the design thought of the invention, the glycosylation JAK inhibitor enters the colon part to exert the anti-inflammatory effect by releasing the original drug, so if the JAK inhibitor has no anti-colitis effect, the anti-colitis effect cannot be exerted even if the colon targeted drug release effect is increased after glycosylation. 2) Colon drug release effects of glycosylated JAK inhibitor prodrugs. According to the experimental results of the invention, among the selected glycosyl, other glycosyl modified JAK inhibitors except L-fucose (D) and D-xylose (e) have obvious colon drug release effect, and the JAK inhibitors have colon targeted drug release effect after being subjected to glycosylation modification so as to enhance the anti-inflammatory effect. By comprehensively considering the two factors, it is easy to estimate that the colon can play a role in targeted drug release by modifying the JAK inhibitor with the anti-colonitis effect by glycosyl with obvious drug release effect, and simultaneously, the systemic toxic and side effects of the drug are reduced, and compared with the original drug small molecule JAK inhibitor, the JAK inhibitor has higher safety and is expected to have more remarkable anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, the glycosylated JAK inhibitor prodrugs according to the present invention are not limited to the structure described in compound 1, but include all glycosylated prodrug compounds obtained by glycosyl modification of JAK inhibitors having anti-colitis effect with colonic release effect.
In conclusion, the series of glycosylated JAK inhibitors prepared by the invention have obvious colon targeted drug release effect, almost no original drug ingredients can be detected in small intestine and blood plasma after oral administration, and a large amount of active ingredients can be released to play an anti-inflammatory role after reaching the colon, thus not only playing the targeted drug release effect, but also greatly reducing the systemic toxic and side effects of the drug.
