Description
Invention field
The present invention relates to method and chemical compound, androstane-5-alkene-3 β for example, 4 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol are used to regulate inflammation, metabolic disorder and described other patient's condition herein.Treatment, the improvement of using chemical compound to regulate inflammation to can be used for the following patient's condition, prevent or delay its progress, for example multiple sclerosis, arthritis or lupus erythematosus of type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia, lung inflammation state (for example, cystic fibrosis), acute or chronic asthma/adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and autoimmune disorder for example.
Background of invention
There are many factors to help the formation of many chronic autoimmune disorders and inflammation and keep.Usually, the etiology of this disease is not fully understood.Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF α) is at first to reply the panimmunity stimulant by mononuclear phagocyte and the cytokine that discharges.When the animal or human is given, it causes inflammation, fever, cardiovascular effect, hemorrhage, hemopexis with to actute infection and shock state process in those similar acute stages of being seen reply.Therefore, TNF α excessive or that do not regulated generates and involves the numerous disease state.This is comprising endotoxemia and/or toxic shock syndrome, for example, and people such as Tracey, people such as Nature330:662-664 (1987) and Hinshaw, Circ.Shock 30:279-292 (1990); Cachexia, for example, people such as Dezube, Lancet, 335 (8690): 662 (1990); And ARDS, wherein in ARDS patient's lung extract, found high TNF α concentration.For example, people such as Millar, Lancet 2 (8665): 712-714 (1989).
As if TNF α also involves bone resorption disease, comprises arthritis.When being activated, leukocyte can produce bone-absorption again, and TNF α can contribute to some extent to this activity, for example, people such as Bertolini, people such as Nature 319:516-518 (1986) and Johnson, Endocrinology 124 (3): 1424-1427 (1989).TNF α has also shown in vitro and in vivo to be stimulated bone resorption and suppresses bone formation by stimulating osteoclast to form and activating and be suppressed to bone cell function.Proved with monoclonal anti-TNF alpha antibody blocking TNF α rheumatoid arthritis (people such as Elliot, Int.J.Pharmac.17 (2): 141-1451995) and crohn (people such as von Dullemen, Gastroenterology, 109 (1): be favourable 129-1352005).
Nuclear Factor-Kappa B (NF-κ B) molecule is the mediator of inflammation in many clinical patient's condition.For example dexamethasone, prednisone or hydrocortisone are glucocorticoid receptor (GR) (GR) agonist to be used for the treatment of some therapeutic agents of inflammation, they suppress NF-κ B indirectly by the activity that increases GR, for example, people such as H.Harkonarson, Am.J.Respir.Cell Mol.Biol.25:761-771,2001.Yet, the elevated levels of natural GR agonist and pharmacology's level of synthetic GR agonist produce unwanted toxicity usually, comprise loss of significant immunosuppressant and bone mass or osteopenia, for example, people such as T.L.Popper, Antiinflammatory agents:Anti-inflammatory steroids, RA.Scherer﹠amp; M.W.Whitehouse edits, Academic Press, New York, the 9th chapter, the 1st volume, 245-294 page or leaf, 1974.The many unwanted toxicity relevant with glucocorticoid all is that the activation by GR causes.Therefore, evaluation can suppress the NF-kB activity and obstructed overactivation GR cause these toxic compounds represented one class can be used for treating inflammation and related symptoms for example pain, fever or tired medicine.
Inflammation unwanted or damageability occurs in many chronic or acute patient's condition, for example, and in ARDS, COPD and the sepsis.Activatory mononuclear cell works in the relevant pathology of transmitting inflammation with neutrophil cell.Particularly importantly activatory neutrophil cell, it shows the accumulation increase of the NF κ-B transcription regulaton factor in the nucleus and the generation of proinflammatory cytokine increases.Neutrophil cell also is the source of toxicity oxygen species, and the generation of toxicity oxygen species mediates tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) secretion by activated macrophage at least in part, and this may be a organ injury seen in sepsis and depleted necessary.
Can take place by different approach with the signal transduction of inflammation-related, and this can improve the NF-kB activity in the affected cell.NF-κ B is incorporated into TNF-α receptor on the cell membrane by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) activation from TNF-α, follows by the activation of (comprising map kinase) of a series of signal transducer.The activation of NF-κ B in Cytoplasm causes that it translocates in the nucleus and causes and comprise the gene activation that NF-κ B replys composition in promoter.Cytoplasmic NF-κ B is incorporated into Toll sample receptor 4 on the cell surface by bacteria lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activation from LPS, and the activation of intracellular signal transduction thing takes place subsequently, comprises the activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase.Known TNF-α and LPS induce intensive struvite replying in vivo and external in cell.The cell of replying this pro-inflammatory signal comprises the immunocyte of macrophage, mononuclear cell and other type.
There is multiple T cell subsets as if in the evolution of some morbid state, to work.Proposed to comprise the important function of T cell mass in the various aspects of mediation immunity of the uniqueness of modulability and/or suppressor T lymphocyte, for example, people such as E.Suri-Payer, J.Immunol., 160 (3): 1212-1218,1998; People such as J.Shimizu, J.Immunol., 163 (10): 5211-5218,1999; People such as M.Itoh, J.Immunol., 162 (9): 5317-5326,1999; People such as A.M.Miller, J.Immunol., 177:7398-7405,2006.CD4

+The all ingredients of cell or testing regulations, for example, H.Yagietal., International Immunol., 16 (11): 1643-1656,2004; People such as W.R.Godfrey, Blood, 105 (2) 750-758,2005.
Recognized the insulin resistant that does not tolerate the experimenter of glucose already.People such as Reaven (American Journal of Medicine, 60 (1): 80-88,1976) glucose of use continuous infusion proves in different non-obesities, non-ketosis subject group with oral glucose tolerance test with insulin (insulin/glucose clamp technology) and has insulin resistant.These experimenters tolerate tangible empty stomach hyperglycemia and difference from critical glucose.Diabetic groups in these researchs comprises (IDDM) of insulin-dependent and the experimenter of non-insulin-depending type (NIDDM).
Consistent with the insulin resistant that continues is easier definite hyperinsulinemia, and it can be measured by the circulating plasma insulin concentration in the accurate mensuration experimenter blood plasma.The result that hyperinsulinemia can be used as insulin resistant occurs, for example in obesity and/or diabetes (NIDDM) experimenter and/or glucose do not tolerate among the experimenter, in IDDM experimenter, be to occur perhaps as the result who compares excessive insulin injection with the insulin that endocrine gland pancreas normal physiologic discharges.
By experiment clinical the and epidemiological study of property described hyperinsulinemia and obesity and with trunk ischemic diseases () association (Stout, Metabolism, 34:7,1985 for example, atherosclerosis; People such as Pyorala, Diabetes/Metabolism Reviews, 3:463,1987).After oral glucose load, 1 rise relevant with the coronary heart disease danger of increase with the plasma insulin of the significance,statistical that occurred in 2 hours.
A kind of model of people's diabetes is db/db mices.The db/db mouse model is described to some extent, for example, people such as D.Koya, The FASEB Journal, 14:439-447,2000; People such as K.Kobayashi, Metabolism, 49 (1): 22-31,2000; People such as J.Berger, J.Biol.Chem., 274 (10): 6718-6725,1999.The db/db mice has sudden change on the gene of coding leptin receptor, along with its functional pancreas beta cell agglomerate worsens in time, having given with bulimia nerovsa, obesity, insulin resistant and diabetes is the phenotype of feature, particularly for the animal of C57BL/Ks genetic background.The db/db mice is typically becoming during ages obviously fat and is beginning to rise at 10 to 14 days plasma insulins in about 3 to 4 weeks.Can observe blood sugar increasing ages in 4 to 8 weeks, having blood glucose out of control increases, and the beta cell of the production insulin of islets of langerhans seriously exhausts, and death when about 10 monthly ages.The progress that this model has been used to characterize the formation of drug candidates influence and diabetes and has kept relevant parameter (for example, hyperglycemia and weight increase) begins or the ability of its speed.
Related to cardiac hypertrophy with PPAR-gamma agonist treatment diabetes, perhaps cardiac weight increases.Show that with rosiglitazone maleate (a kind of PPAR-gamma agonist) treatment the patient may experience hydrops and liquid capacity dependent event, for example edema and congestive heart failure.The cardiac hypertrophy relevant with the PPAR-gamma agonist treatment typically handled by ending treatment.
The physiological action of hydrocortisone is its antagonism to insulin.High hydrocortisone concentration can reduce the insulin sensitivity in this organ in the liver, and it tends to increase gluconeogenesis and increases blood sugar level people such as (, Front Neuroendocrine., 14:303-347,1993) M.F.Dallman.This effect has increased the weight of impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes.In the storehouse Cotard that the circulation composition by too much hydrocortisone causes, the antagonism to insulin in susceptible individual can cause diabetes (people such as E.J.Ross, Lancet, 2:646-649,1982).
Hydrocortisone can be in vivo 11 β-dehydrogenase activity by 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases be converted into cortisone.Its back reaction, promptly the cortisone of non-activity is converted into active hydrocortisone, is to be realized by the 11 β-reductase activity of these enzymes in some organ.This activity is called corticosteroid 11 β-reductase activity again.11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases have the isozyme of at least two kinds of uniquenesses.The expression of 11 β-HSD 1 type produces two-way enzyme or dominant 11 β-reductase in various kinds of cell system, its can from otherwise be the 11-ketosteroid parent of non-activity 11 beta-hydroxysteroids of regenerating.
The mitochondrion PCK (is called the PEPCK-mitochondrion again, PEPCK-M, PCK2 and mtPEPCK) in various people's tissues, express, mainly in liver, kidney, pancreas, intestinal and fibroblast, express (people such as Modaressi, Biochem.J., 333:359-366,1998).Although not fully record, the PEPCK-mitochondrion lacks and has related to arrest of development, hypoglycemia and liver anomalies.(PEPCK-C) is different with the endochylema form, and mitochondrion form (PEPCK-mitochondrion) is a constitutive expression, and is not subjected to hormonal stimulation to regulate (Hanson and Patel, Adv.Enzymol.Relat.Areas Mol.Biol., 69:203-281,1994).Two kinds of forms all are positioned on the independent chromosome, are positioned at chromosome 14q11, and PEPCK-C is present in chromosome 20q11 and goes up people such as (, Hum.Mol.Genet, 2:1-4,1993) Stoffel.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a kind of autoimmune disease (Bar-Or, A., J.Neuroimmunol.100:252-259,1999) as inflammatory disease of central nervous system.Although the natural process of this disease is by for example interferon (IFN)-β, copolymer, cyclophosphamide and mitoxantrone are treated the (Hafler that improves with immune regulative-inhibitive ability of immunity chemical compound recently, D.A. and Weiner, H.L., Immunological Reviews 144:75,1995; Goodkin, D.E., Lancet 352:1486,1998), but neither one can be blocked the progress of disease in these medicines, and have some to have the serious side effects that limits its prolonged application among them.In addition, significantly the patient of quantity performance go on business to the replying of IFN-β, comprise recurrence remission form patient and secondary progress type MS patient.Therefore, need new chemical compound, be used for treating separately or improving its process by the progress that for example delays MS in therapeutic alliance.
Need effective medicine of cost or Therapeutic Method at present and more effectively treat the above-mentioned patient's condition.The invention provides one or more therapeutic agent and the Therapeutic Method that is used for the treatment of in these patient's condition.Therefore, described medicine and method can be used for reducing and one or more relevant symptoms of the described patient's condition herein.In addition, the application of medicine of the present invention and method can be united with one or more routine treatments that are used for these diseases.

The biodynamics chemical compound.The method of evaluation or characterising biological kinetics chemical compound can be carried out as mentioned above.Described method comprises in addition randomly carrying out a kind of rules comes the determination test chemical compound whether to make the activity or the level of the mediator of acute biological answer-reply be subjected to about 20% or about 25% to about 70% or about 75% adjusting in vitro tests, randomly, with the suitable reference activator of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) or antagonist for example dexamethasone or hydrocortisone compare, wherein test compound does not make glucocorticoid receptor (GR) be subjected to surpassing about 10%, about 20% or about 30% activation or antagonism.In these embodiments, acute irritation or infringement biology can be to make the experimenter be exposed to ionizing radiation or pro-inflammatory signal, chemical compound or the compositions of abundant amount, randomly, wherein pro-inflammatory signal, chemical compound or compositions be antibacterial LPS or TNF α and/or randomly wherein the mediator of acute biological answer-reply be NF-κ B or I κ B.
The infringement of acute irritation or biology can be that the usefulness vehicle control mice to the mice that heals with medicine of quantity sufficient and quantity sufficient gives the influence to the mediator of acute biological answer-reply of competent antibacterial LPS and experiment with measuring chemical compound, described measurement was carried out in the following time: (i) described acute replying to maximum or approaching maximum, about 1.5 hours after giving antibacterial LPS randomly by peritoneal injection, for example, about 70-110 minute or 75-105 minute and (ii) before giving competent antibacterial LPS and/or afterwards one or two point At All Other Times, time point before giving competent antibacterial LPS and be maximum or randomly near the later time after maximum acute replying, about 2.0 or 2.5 hours after giving antibacterial LPS randomly by peritoneal injection, and randomly wherein the mediator of acute biological answer-reply be NF-κ B or I κ B.
Giving competent antibacterial LPS can be randomly in fact according to described method or its suitable variant carry out herein, and randomly, wherein chemical compound is partly regulated the level of mediator of acute biological answer-reply or active ability in fact according to described method or its suitable variant carry out herein.
Other stimulation that can analyze or infringement biology comprise the perfusion again of ischemia and one or more ischemic tissues; Low relatively, in or high-intensity heat or chemical burn; Or be exposed under other toxin or the poisonous substance.Biology, the influence of infringement can be estimated in multiple tissue or organ, for example, and spleen, blood, bone marrow, lung, brain, liver, intestinal, colon or heart.
The variable that can estimate comprises that typically the experimenter produces maximum time or the time period of replying for infringement biology that is given.Usually, damage the biological answer-reply that produces maximum in preceding 30 minutes to 48 hours that accept to damage the experimenter acute biology.Given biomolecule is replied usually the maximum of acute biology of infringement and is continued about 15 minutes to about 2 hours, although some were replied in the given time period, and accumulates in a couple of days or longer time subsequently.The time period of maximum biological answer-reply is time period easily for the effectiveness of estimating drug candidates or the mechanism of action.
17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 beta-triols performances of short duration, but the ability of very effective effect (described effect is disappeared and recovered normal function) is called as biodynamics in this article replys (referring to embodiment 9).By ' biodynamics reagent ' 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β for example, 7 β, the biodynamics that 17 beta-triols cause reply with chemical compound for example its effector biomolecule of causing of dexamethasone for example ' biostatics is replied ' of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) or NF-κ B is fully different, it is the indirect inhibition of being undertaken by the activation of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) that described biostatics is replied.Biostatics was replied and come down to " all replying " under all time, that is, ' biostatics medicine ' for example the biological efficacy of dexamethasone has relatively little variation under given concentration in target cell or tissue.
Therefore, the drug action of biostatics medicine mainly changes with its concentration or pharmacokinetic property.On the contrary, biodynamics reagent is 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β for example, and 7 β, 17 beta-triols are characterised in that drug action is subjected to the concentration of target cell or tissue and as the character that stimulates biology on basis and the influence of combination of strength.Therefore, stimulate biology be by for example be exposed to may lethal dose ionizing radiation for example gamma-radiation or X-ray or contact antibacterial LPS, TNF α, maybe can activate or other reagent of inflammation-inhibiting mediator for example NF-κ B, IKB, IL-6, c reactive protein are caused.In this respect, the biodynamics medicine can show between pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic action than the common observed more uncertain statistics dependency of biostatics medicine.
An aspect of biodynamics medicine is that it reduces the potential ability of the system toxicity relevant with passing through adjusting biostatics medicine identical or similar target biomolecule at least in part.Biostatics medicine for example dexamethasone can be used for the treatment of various inflammatory conditions clinically, and still the biological activity of ' all replying under all time ' can cause toxicity.In the situation that suppresses NF-κ B, its activity great majority or institute in a organized way long-time (for example, above 1,2 or 4 hour to about 1,2,3 day or more of a specified duration) constant and relatively complete inhibition (for example, be suppressed about 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95% or in fact 100%) can cause observable unwanted side effect, because the normal biological function that some foundation level of NF-kB activity is great majority to be organized is needed.With use glucocorticoid for example the relevant known toxicity of dexamethasone may occur at least in part when for example NF-κ B is closed relatively completely in affected biomolecule.By contrast, the biodynamics medicine can be brought into play ofer short duration replying, and can improve or reduce observable toxic side effects.
Another aspect of biodynamics medicine is that they may bring into play the ability of therapeutical effect in tissue-specific mode.Therefore, animal is to attacking the NF-kB activation that may show as in various degree of replying for example be exposed to infringement biology (antibacterial LPS that for example may lethal dose or pour into affected tissue after of short duration ischemia again) in different tissues.Biodynamics medicine replying in the relatively large tissue of animal therein works, for example, spleen of mice or heart tissue, and other organizes the NF-κ B function in the brain for example uninfluenced relatively, and for mediating concerning the target biological molecules of replying of infringement biology to small part, relatively low to replying of infringement biology.
The biodynamics medicine can be partly since the ability that they partly suppress target biological molecules work.As described in example 7 above, 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 beta-triols and some other chemical compounds of describing herein suppress the NF-kB activation in the cell on outer body ground, but all do not observe complete inhibition under any concentration.The activity of this and biostatics medicine dexamethasone forms contrast, and biostatics medicine dexamethasone fully suppresses the NF-kB activity in sufficiently high concentration.As if this part of external NF-κ B suppress partly to be reflected by its activity described in this embodiment.Therefore, at least some situations, the biodynamics medicine is characterised in that the ability that partly suppresses or activate target biological molecules in the system of example in vitro tests as described in example 7 above.The inhibition of NF-κ B is seemingly indirect, because do not think 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β at present, and 7 β, 17 beta-triols and other chemical compound of describing herein directly are incorporated into the NF-κ B in Cytoplasm or the nucleus.
The variant that is fit to of the rules of Miao Shuing or its in this embodiment can be used for characterizing other chemical compound by regulating for example NF-κ B and as the ability of biodynamics or biostatics agents act of (can detect activatable maybe can detect antagonism or inhibition) molecule in vivo.Chemical compound can also be analyzed in vitro tests, for example in the test described in the embodiment 7, so that further characterize their mechanism of action.The variant that is fit to of rules comprises the test compound and different route of administration that uses various dose in the body of describing among this embodiment, for example about 0.1mg/kg is to the dosage range of about 350mg/kg, with it with per os, give or give or be drawn into nasal passage, vomeronasal organ or alveolar or lead in the air flue (for example, bronchus or bronchioles) of alveolar by intranasal through cheek, Sublingual or non-intestinal (for example Intradermal, subcutaneous, intravenous or intramuscular injection).The test dose that is fit to typically is about 1-150mg/kg.The biomolecule that can measure in vivo is I κ B, kinases such as src kinases, map kinases or other signal mediator of describing herein for example.This characterizing method can be in multiple experimenter one or more in carry out Rodents for example Rhesus Macacus or machin of rat, Canis familiaris L., inhuman primate for example for example.Can comprise about 3-12 animal to every group, for example the animal groups of every group of 4-8 animal is used vehicle or the placebo that is fit to, it may be the test compound of biodynamics medicine, male biodynamics medicine reference examples is as 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 beta-triols, male biostatics medicine reference examples such as dexamethasone, and will in different cell masses or tissue, compare by the group of replying and one or more matched group of test compound, for example, vehicle control group, contrast of positive or negative biodynamics medicine or the contrast of positive or negative biostatics medicine.
With this analytical applications during in the mankind, the scope of experiment option is compared with other animal naturally and is reduced.People's tissue or sample for example blood, bone marrow or lung-douching fluid than other types of organization that need obtain by invasive technique spleen or liver is easier obtains being used for analyzing for example.Therefore, usually, use the mankind reply evaluation before or carry out zooscopy simultaneously.

Embodiment 2.The analysis of immunne response.Find chemical compound 3 α, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane have makes described chemical compound be used for the treatment of for example biological characteristics of the medicine of asthma of inflammatory conditions as excellence.Particularly, described application of compound is not attended by the bounce-back of IL-13, and the bounce-back of IL-13 is for example known side effect of dexamethasone of antiinflammatory glucocorticoid compound.IL-13 after using glucocorticoid rebounds and makes asthmatic patient be more prone to take place acute onset subsequently, and therefore, the anti-inflammatory agent that does not have this side effect is favourable.It is unexpected that the IL-13 bounce-back does not take place.
In the asthma mouse model of ovalbumin (OVA) sensitization, 3 α have been observed, 16 α, the ability of 17 α-trihydroxy androstane restriction eosinocyte load and the crucial inflammation mediator of minimizing (IL-5, IL-13, cysteinyl-leukotriene).By the 1st and the 12nd day peritoneal injection OVA (in the Alumen adjuvant) make the BALB/c mouse sensitization.Attack air flue by sending OVA to lung with OVA, perhaps send saline to lung at the 28th and the 30th day.At the 31st day, will put to death and analyze lung tissue with 6 mices of saline treatment with 6 mices that OVA attacks.Remaining animal is divided into 6 groups (every group of 6 mices).Following group to mice is treated by subcutaneous injection once a day.The 1st group of vehicle contrast (0.1% carboxymethyl cellulose, 0.9% saline, 2% Tween 80,0.05% phenol).The 2nd group of dexamethasone (5mg/kg).The 3rd group of 3 α, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane (1mg/ mice).Three sacrifice of animal in the 1-3 group were put to death three animals of residue in the 1-3 group at the 38th day in 1 hour after the 35th day treats the last time.
As shown in the table, 3 α, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane are not created in observed IL-13 increase in the animal for the treatment of with dexamethasone.
The treatment group | IL-13(pg/mL) |
Saline control | 220 |
Ovalbumin | 230 |
Vehicle (the 35th day) | 220 |
Dexamethasone (the 35th day) | 340 |
3 α, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane (the 35th day) | 195 |
Vehicle (the 38th day) | 190 |
Dexamethasone (the 38th day) | 390 |
3 α, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane (the 38th day) | 210 |
After attacking the 38th day, except the IL-13 bounce-back reduces, compare with dexamethasone treatment group (145pg/mL), use 3 α, 16 α, the IL-5 level reduction (90pg/mL) in the animal lung tissue that 17 α-trihydroxy androstane is treated.At the 38th day, the IL-5 level in the vehicle control group was 75pg/mL.Other formula 1 chemical compound as herein described is used by this way,, comprise 3 β to identify their treatments or to improve inflammation and do not have the ability of IL-13 and/or IL-5 rebound effect, 16 β, 17 β-trihydroxy androstane, 3 β, 16 α, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane, 3 β, 16 β, 17 α-trihydroxy androstane, androstane-5-alkene-2 α, 3 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol, androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol and 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 beta-triols.These results show that F1C is used in interior therapeutic lung inflammation or asthma.
In another kind of rules, following from murine bone marrow cultivating fertilizer maxicell group.In brief, use PBS and 27g syringe needle to derive from the bone marrow of Balb/C mice from femur flushing (flush).Cell is cultivated in the 2/3RPMI-1640 of the cell that contains 19%FBS and secretion IL-3.Before being used for testing, make medullary cell the mixture differentiation that comprises IL-3 18-25 days.So the medullary cell of cultivating has with the similar Phenotype of mucosal mast cell and is called as the mastocyte (BMMC) of derived from bone marrow.
Check by the stream cell counting technology of routine external breeding mastocyte homogeneity and dye with the cell type specificity marker.At the 14th and 21 day of breeding, gather in the crops sophisticated mastocyte and preparation and be used for the test cultivation.Purpose be want assessing compound for example dehydroepiandrosterone mastocyte is stimulated the influence of bonded threshing.With the preparation mastocyte with 1 * 10
7The density distribution of cell/mL is in the test culture hole.In contrast culture, after IgE receptor and IgE antigen-antibody complex are crosslinked, induce the mastocyte threshing.In parallel cultivation group,, use anti--IgE antibody activation subsequently with the dehydroepiandrosterone preincubate of mastocyte and various dose.Measured as discharging beta-glucuronidase by the cytosol storage granule from cell, in the presence of not having to stimulate, mastocyte does not have can detected threshing.Introduce anti--IgE receptor antibody to culture and cause the remarkable release of beta-glucuronidase.When mastocyte is exposed to independent dehydroepiandrosterone, there is not measurable threshing.Yet before with anti--IgE antigen-antibody complex activation, 5 to 10 minutes the mastocyte of dehydroepiandrosterone that is exposed to 100 μ M dosage in advance shows about 70% threshing inhibition.The dehydroepiandrosterone of reduced levels shows the ability that suppresses threshing and diminishes pro rata.In similar rules, F1C is 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β for example, 7 β, 17 beta-triols, androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol or androstane-5-alkene-3 α, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol is than the big 10-1000 of effectiveness times of dehydroepiandrosterone.
Embodiment 3.The treatment of mortality inflammation/shock.In mortality shock rules, use two kinds of chemical compounds, 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone (3 beta-hydroxies-16 α-bromine androstane-17-ketone) and 3 β, 16 alpha-dihydroxy-s-17-oxo androstane.In rules, give a treated animal with 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone by oral gavage of 3mg, and another group is accepted 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone of 3mg by subcutaneous injection.One group of control animals receive placebo contrast.In these rules, give 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone to mice giving the bacteria lipopolysaccharide of lethal dose (LPS) before 24 hours and afterwards 1 hour.When the observation period (after giving LPS 72 hours) finishes, do not have a survival in the placebo animal of vehicle treatment, and accept 65% survival is arranged by the animal of orally give 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone.The animal of accepting 16 α bromine epiandrosterones by subcutaneous injection has 50% survival.The animal that survived 72 hours all gets well from the LPS contact.
In second test, before giving the LPS of lethal dose 24 hours and 1 hour by oral gavage afterwards give 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone or 3 β to mice, 16 alpha-dihydroxy-s-17-oxo androstane.The animal of vehicle treatment group is used as placebo.At 72 hours, the placebo mice had 25% survival, used 3 β, and the mice of 16 alpha-dihydroxy-s-17-oxo androstane treatment has 50% survival, and the mice for the treatment of with 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone has 80% survival.
In another experiment, shown 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone and 3 β, 16 alpha-dihydroxy-s-17-oxo androstane prevents by making mice be exposed to the LPS of sublethal dose and the ability of inductive injury of lung.In this test, before the LPS that gives 100 μ g to trachea and the lung of animal under the shallow degree anesthesia situation 24 hours and 1 hour by oral gavage afterwards give chemical compound, Sterile Saline (negative control) or vehicle (vehicle contrast) to the group of 5 mices.At 48 hours, obtain sample from the lung of animal with sacrifice of animal and by alveolar wass (BAL).With the cell counting in the BAL liquid, the cell number multilist shows the inflammation and the damage of lung.In this test, the cell response of transmitting inflammation and injury of lung penetrates in the lung in the existence of LPS.In negative control and vehicle control group, BAL liquid comprises about 6 * 10
7Cell/mL.With 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone (p=0.02) or 3 β, the cell number of the animal groups of 16 alpha-dihydroxy-s-17-oxo androstane (p=0.04) treatment has the cell counting (about 4.4 * 10 in the BAL fluid of remarkable minimizing
7Cell/mL).This result shows, in for example asthma of chemical compound injury of lung or infringement therein and uncontrolled or excessive inflammation-related or the clinical patient's condition of COPD activity arranged.Can characterize other chemical compound in a similar manner, for example, 17 α-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 beta-triols or 17 beta-aminos androstane-5-alkene-3 β-alcohol.
Embodiment 4.Remove antibacterial from lung tissue.Use disclosed in advance rules to prove that 16 α-bromine epiandrosterone removes the ability that Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) infects from lung tissue, people such as A.van Heeckeren, J.Clin.Invest., 100 (11): 2810-2815 1977; People such as A.van Heeckeren, Am.J.Respir.Crit.Care Med., 161:271-2792000.Described rules are carried out in the CFTR mice, and it is used as the animal model of people's cystic fibrosis, people such as S.D.Freedman, and Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA, 96 (24): 13995-14000 1999; People such as W.Zeng, Am.J.Physiol.Cell.Physiol.273:C442-C455 1997.Use comprises the agarose beads of antibacterial, and (50 μ L comprise about 6.1 * 10

Embodiment 23.In fact as described in the above-mentioned embodiment 6 in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) ability of bounds evaluation 1 compounds for treating multiple sclerosis (MS).The rules of implementing the EAE animal model are described in people such as (, Ann.NY.Acad.Sci.USA, 1051:730-42,2005) D.Auci.The female SJL mice (6-8 week age, average weight 25g) that derives from Charles-River remained under the standard laboratory conditions (do not contain non-specific pathogen antibacterial), free contacting foodstuff and water, and before beginning one's study, allow the week that conforms.Six groups that animal are divided at random every group of seven animals, and following processing: (1) mice is handled with vehicle, (2) mice is used SU5416 (Z-3-[(2,4-dimethyl pyrrole-5-yl) methylene]-the 2-indolone) handle, (3) mice is with 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 α-triol is handled, and (4) mice is used androstane-5-alkene-3 α, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol is handled, and (5) mice is used androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol handle, and (6) mice is with 3 α-trifluoromethyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 17-isoallopregnane-3 is handled, (7) mice is with 17 α-trifluoromethyl-androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 17-isoallopregnane-3 handle and (8) mice with 5 α-androstane-3 β, 17-isoallopregnane-3-16-oxime processing.1:1 Emulsion (75 μ g proteolipid protein(PLP) (PLP) and the 6mg/mL mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RA in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)) with 200 μ L is induced EAA.To distribute between four positions of 200 μ L injections in draining into secondary lymph node and inguinal lymph nodes.Pertussis toxin, PT is given with 200ng/ mice i.p. as co-adjuvant and after the 0th day and immunity second day.When the clinical onset of disease, begin each group is handled with the 100 μ L vehicles that contain the 0.1mg chemical compound, perhaps handle, q.d.po (oral gavage), and continuation 30 days after immunity with independent vehicle.The clinical symptoms that clinical onset is defined as disease in 25% mice reaches the time of 2-3 level.Clinical scale is undertaken by the observer who does not recognize treatment: 0=does not have disease, and the 1=tail is soft to hang down the paraparesis of 2=moderate, the paraparesis of 3=severe, the dying state of 4=, 5=death.By the ANOVA of paired data and non-parametric Mann-Whitney check being carried out statistical analysis to the significant difference of clinical score.<0.05 P value is considered to statistically significant.For statistical analysis, the mice that dies from EAE is 5 in death assignment on the same day only, deletes from experimental group then.
As expected, in the 19th day after immunity, 8/8 (100%) all develops the EAE sign that standard in the mice of vehicle processed group.The average natural law of morbidity is 15.5 ± 3.9 (SD).In this animal groups, the persistent period of disease is 12.3 ± 4.3 days.From the 1st day to the 30th day average accumulated scoring was 24.8 ± 7.8, was 22.7 ± 15.8 from (handling the back) average accumulated scoring of the 31st day to the 54th day.Using SU5416, androstane-5-alkene-3 α, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol and 5 α-androstane-3 β, observe in the animal that 17-isoallopregnane-3-16-oxime is handled and observed closely similar EAE process in the mice of vehicle processed group, so the mice of handling shows and can compared with the control cumulative incidence rate, disease persistent period and average accumulated fall ill.By contrast, with androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol, 3 α-trifluoromethyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 17-isoallopregnane-3 or 17 α-trifluoromethyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, the mice that 17-isoallopregnane-3 is handled shows with vehicle processed group mice compares the EAE process that significantly improves, and causes average accumulated scoring and one or more all significantly reductions in the persistent period.And in further contrasting, there are not accumulation incidence rate or the fatality rate of a kind of appreciable impact EAE in these chemical compounds.Although last 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 α-triol only shows the tendency that reduces with respect to the accumulation EAE of vehicle processed group mice outbreak and persistent period, still this effect seemingly biology important (14.9 ± 17.6 and 7 ± 7.9 pairs 24.8 ± 7.8 and 12.3 ± 4.3).This chemical compound do not have statistical significance to be since the whole observation period a large amount of mices be endowed 0 scoring, therefore cause high standard deviation.
When processing in the 30th day finished, the monitoring mice was up to other 24 days.Might observe that disease becomes chronic disease in the vehicle processed group mice, its accumulation scoring can be compared with the accumulation scoring in the processing procedure.Compare with the processing time, in the SU5416 group, observe the phenomenal growth of accumulation scoring in the follow-up time course, be increased to 35.5 ± 13.2 from 25.5 ± 8.9 average accumulated scoring, and 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, the growth of 17 α-triol is then littler, for rising to 18.4 ± 20.6 from 14.9 ± 17.6.With 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, in the mice that 17 α-triol is handled, 85.7% when 57.1% in the time of also might observing the EAE sickness rate and finishes from the processing time is increased to follow-up time end.On the other hand, other chemical compound seemingly in the follow-up time, kept to the processing time in similar accumulation scoring.This is for 3 α-trifluoromethyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, and 17-isoallopregnane-3 is significant especially, and its 11.2 ± 4.8 average accumulated scoring in the processing time process is increased to follow-up time 10.8 ± 10.3 when finishing.
These results show, 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 17 α-triol, androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 7 β, 16 α, 17 β-tetrol, 3 α-trifluoromethyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β, 17-isoallopregnane-3 and 17 α-trifluoromethyl-androstane-5-alkene-3 β has been brought into play powerful antiinflammatory performance in the inductive EAE model of the PLP of 17-isoallopregnane-3 in the SJL mice.For these discoveries are converted into clinical setting relevant especially be following observed result, promptly, give when the EAE clinical symptom even developed 24% mice in the rules of beginning in after immunity the 12nd day, chemical compound is still activated in this EAE model.What particularly point out is to find that SU5416 is invalid in this case.Reported before that SU5416 was effectively people such as (, J.Med.Chem.48:5412-5414,2005) L.Bouerat in EAE.Yet in order to obtain such result, the SU5416 chemical compound is to give in the animals received immunity.By contrast, in these rules, after the rank symptom is obvious, just give for example 17 β-acetenyl androstane-5-alkene-3 β of chemical compound, 7 β to animal, 17 α-triol, this shows that chemical compound can be used for treating effectively existing disease and is used for prevention or the delay disease incidence.
