Description

Polypeptide drug conjugate and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and relates to a polypeptide drug conjugate, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Malignant tumors are one of the major diseases threatening human life and health at present, and the infiltration and metastasis thereof are characteristic markers of the malignancy thereof. The blood metastasis of tumor cells is the main way for the distant metastasis of tumor, and is also the main factor of treatment failure and death of most tumor patients clinically at present.
The tumor metastasis process comprises three main links, namely the migration of tumor cells from a primary part to a blood circulation system after the tumor cells penetrate through vascular endothelial cells of tumor tissues, the running of the tumor cells along with blood and the implantation of the tumor cells at a metastasis part, and relates to the interaction among various cell adhesion molecules, extracellular matrix and other blood cells. The research finds that the blood platelet plays a crucial role in the process of tumor metastasis, and the specific action mechanism mainly comprises the following aspects: firstly, the tumor cells entering the blood circulation activate platelets, and the platelets are aggregated to form tumor emboli, so that the tumor cells are protected from the attack of blood turbulence and an immune system; the surface of the platelet has molecules which can be mutually adhered with tumor cells and vascular endothelial cells, so that the platelet can be adhered and fused with damaged endothelial cells and can also be adhered with the tumor cells, and the platelet has a bridge function of promoting the adhesion of the tumor cells and the endothelial cells, thereby helping the adhesion of the tumor cells and the vascular endothelial cells at a metastatic part; and thirdly, after the tumor cells are implanted in the metastasis part, the platelets can directly promote the growth and the propagation of the tumor cells by secreting various bioactive factors, promote angiogenesis and provide a proper microenvironment for the growth of the tumor. The tumor cells and the platelets interact to form cancer emboli (i.e. tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation, TCIPA) and the secretory protease thereof to destroy the microvasculature to enter the surrounding tissues are the rate-limiting step of tumor hematogenous metastasis.
Therefore, inhibition of platelet function would be a promising means for inhibiting tumor metastasis. At present, a plurality of antiplatelet drugs are successfully used for the research of inhibiting the tumor cell metastasis on animal models. For example, the number of lung metastases in platelet-deficient mice in experimental tumor metastasis models is significantly reduced; the GPIIbIIIa monoclonal antibody can effectively inhibit the adhesion of platelets and tumor cells, thereby inhibiting tumor metastasis; the platelet ADP receptor inhibitor ticagrelor successfully inhibits the metastasis of tumor cells in a mouse model and prolongs the survival period of mice. However, systemic suppression or knockout of platelets in animals presents a systemic hemorrhagic risk and is an important factor limiting the clinical applications of such methods.
On the other hand, atherosclerosis (atherosclerosis) is a common pathological basis for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and is also a significant cause of death of patients. Pathological studies have shown that the development of atherosclerosis includes lipid infiltration, platelet activation, thrombosis, intimal damage, inflammatory response, oxidative stress, vascular smooth muscle cell activation, and the like. Although many scholars have put forth different theories about the pathogenesis of AS, platelet activation is a key step in the normal coagulation mechanism and is also a major cause of pathological thrombosis in vascular atherosclerotic diseases such AS Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Therefore, antiplatelet therapy is a very important aspect of the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Currently available oral antiplatelet drugs include aspirin, clopidogrel, the P2Y12 receptor antagonist, and prasugrel, all of which improve the ischemic symptoms in patients with atherosclerosis. However, since current oral antiplatelet agents have a greater risk of ischemic events and a higher tendency to bleed, it is imperative to find new therapeutic agents that reduce the risk of ischemic events and bleeding.
Therefore, how to specifically inhibit the platelet from binding to tumor cells and how to make the platelet inhibitor specifically bind to the atherosclerosis site without affecting the normal blood coagulation function of the platelet is a bottleneck problem in the two technical fields. The key to solving the problem is that the targeted delivery of the existing antiplatelet drugs is realized, so that the specific high-concentration enrichment at the tumor tissue site or the atherosclerosis site is realized.
Polypeptide conjugate (PDC) is a novel conjugate. The peptide chain with about 10 amino acids at one end is used as a targeting structural domain of a targeting tumor cell, and the other end is a drug molecule with a biological function, so that the high-efficiency targeting delivery of the drug molecule is realized, and the scientific aims of synergy and attenuation of tumor treatment are fulfilled. Compared with Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC), the molecular weight of the antibody drug conjugate is smaller, and immune response is not easy to cause; compared to the complex process of antibody production, PDC can be synthesized entirely by chemical methods, with higher efficiency, and easier purification. Thus, PDC has become an increasingly developing trend of next-generation targeted drugs. Based on the technical scheme, the invention aims to couple the tumor blood vessel targeting polypeptide (CREKA) and the existing platelet inhibitor together to form a novel polypeptide drug conjugate, and is expected to realize the scientific targets of inhibiting tumor metastasis and inhibiting the development of atherosclerosis with high efficiency and low toxicity.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a polypeptide drug conjugate and a preparation method and application thereof.

The polypeptide drug conjugate provided by the invention is a brand-new drug conjugate, and ticagrelor is commonly used in single drugs, but is prepared into a polypeptide molecule combined drug, so no related research is available.
Ticagrelor is a selective ADP receptor-P2Y 12 inhibitor developed by American Aspirin company and marketed in 2011, belongs to a new chemical class, namely cyclopentyl triazolopyrimidine (CPTP), is a novel platelet aggregation inhibitor, selectively antagonizes Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP), inhibits ADP-mediated platelet activation and aggregation, and has a similar action mechanism with clopidogrel. However, in contrast, the interaction between ticagrelor and the platelet P2Y12 receptor is reversible, inhibiting thrombus formation, without conformational changes and signaling, and with rapid recovery of platelet function in the blood following withdrawal. Although it can better preserve platelet number and function, there is still a bleeding risk in clinical applications. CREKA (Cys-Arg-Glu-Lys-Ala) polypeptide is a pentapeptide screened and identified by an in-vivo peptide library, can be combined with blood coagulation plasma protein in tumor blood vessels, is further positioned in the tumor blood vessels or in atherosclerotic blood vessels, and is a targeting polypeptide widely applied in the process of medicament design. Therefore, the ticagrelor and the CREKA polypeptide are combined to form a novel polypeptide drug conjugate, so that the platelet function in a tumor tissue or the platelet function in an atherosclerosis part can be specifically inhibited, the platelet function in a normal blood circulation process is not influenced, and the ultimate goal of inhibiting tumor metastasis or preventing acute coronary syndrome with high efficiency and low toxicity is realized.
