Description

Polyethylene glycol modified GLP-1 derivatives and medicinal salts thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to GLP-1 derivatives and medicinal salts thereof, in particular to modified GLP-1 derivatives and medicinal salts thereof and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an intestinal peptide hormone secreted by L cells at the far end of the human small intestine and having the efficacy of reducing blood sugar, and the amino acid sequence of the intestinal peptide hormone is HAEGTFTSDVSSYLEGQAAKEFIAWLVKGRG. The main physiological mechanisms of action of GLP-1 include enhancement of blood glucose dependent insulin secretion, inhibition of glucagon secretion and slowing of the rate of gastric emptying. The insulinotropic action of GLP-1 is also blood glucose dependent, avoiding the risk of hypoglycemia. The rate of gastric emptying decreases, the rate of glucose absorption also slows, and the amplitude of postprandial glucose excursions decreases, so GLP-1 plays a more important role in controlling postprandial glucose than insulin. In addition, GLP-1 can also increase satiety, reduce appetite, and thereby reduce weight. Moreover, during the treatment of type II diabetes, weight gain can aggravate insulin resistance in patients, leading to various metabolic disorders, so the unique advantage of GLP-1 in reducing weight makes it very competitive in the treatment of type II diabetes. However, GLP-1 has a prominent hypoglycemic activity, but its half-life in vivo is short and it cannot be a good drug for type II diabetes. Besides regulating blood sugar, the GLP-1 receptor agonist also has the effects of stimulating beta cell proliferation, inhibiting beta cell apoptosis, relieving insulin resistance, protecting cardiovascular system and the like.
GLP-1 sequences have been modified at present, and although the GLP-1 derivatives have longer in vivo half-life compared with unmodified sequences, the GLP-1 derivatives are still easy to be cleared from the kidney and degraded by diacyl peptidase-4 and NEP-24.11 enzymes which are widely present in vivo, so the in vivo half-life is not ideal. In addition, existing methods to improve half-life in vivo generally alter the GLP-1 sequence to increase half-life in vivo. However, the greater the sequence heterogeneity with respect to the human body, the stronger the immune response of the human body, so that the existing derivatives with improved GLP-1 sequence and thus improved half-life in vivo cannot meet the therapeutic needs. Thus, the half-life of the GLP-1 derivatives currently available in vivo is still not ideal for use in the treatment of type ii diabetes. For example, the commercially available drug, leuprolide, is a chemically synthesized exenatide, which is administered twice a day.
In view of the above, there is an urgent need in the art to develop modified GLP-1 derivatives and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof having excellent hypoglycemic effects and having an ideal and less heterogeneous in vivo half-life.

Detailed Description
After extensive and intensive studies, the inventors have unexpectedly found a GLP-1 derivative which is less heterologous to the human body but has an excellent half-life and therapeutic effect. In addition, GLP-1 derivatives (with the sequence of HX) shown in the formula (I) are modified by high molecular weight branched maleimide polyethylene glycol1EGTFTSDVSSYLEX2QAAKEFIAWLVKGRGCX3-NH2(ii) a Wherein, X1Is Abi/Ala/Ser/D-Ala, X2Gly or Glu, and X3 is Gly or none), the in vivo half-life period of the GLP-1 derivative is greatly prolonged under the condition of not influencing the hypoglycemic activity, and thus the long-time hypoglycemic effect is obtained. Based on this, the present invention has been completed.
Specifically, the C-terminal of the polypeptide chain employed in the present invention has a cysteine residue with a free thiol group. And branched polyethylene glycol with maleimide activation is adopted. In a buffer solution with pH of 6.5-7.5, an active group in a maleimide molecule and a free sulfhydryl on a polypeptide chain form a stable covalent bond to obtain the PEG-GLP-1 compound. In an acidic buffer solution, the PEG-GLP-1 can be adsorbed on a cation exchange chromatography column, and finally, the linear gradient elution is carried out through a salt solution, so as to obtain the PEG-GLP-1 compound (namely the modified GLP-1 derivative of the invention).
The main advantages of the invention include:
(a) the modified GLP-1 derivative has long half-life period and low administration frequency.
(b) The sequence used by the modified GLP-1 derivative has small heterogeneity with human body, and is not easy to generate immune reaction.
(c) The modified GLP-1 derivative of the invention is not easily degraded by enzymes in the human body or excreted from the kidney.
The invention will be further illustrated with reference to the following specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The experimental procedures, in which specific conditions are not noted in the following examples, are generally carried out under conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturers. Unless otherwise indicated, percentages and parts are percentages and parts by weight.
The invention relates to a GLP-1 derivative synthesized by Hangzhou Zhongtai peptide Biochemical company Limited, wherein the branched maleimide polyethylene glycol is purchased from Sonopongg biological corporation

In vitro activity assay of PEG modified products of GLP-1 derivatives
According to a GLP-1R signal transduction pathway, an HEK293 cell line transiently transfected with an alkaline phosphatase reporter gene expressing GLP-1R and driven by cAMP is established and used for screening GLP-1R agonist. When GLP-1R binds to the agonist, cellular cAMP concentration increases and the expression of the alkaline phosphatase reporter gene, driven by cAMP, is upregulated. The ability of the compound to agonize GLP-1R activity can be judged by detecting the activity of alkaline phosphatase.

Wherein the Exenatide sequence of the experimental comparative example was synthesized by Hangzhou Zhongji peptide Biochemical Co., Ltd and had a purity of > 95%, and the Exenatide sequence was as follows:
His-D-Ala-Glu-Gly-Thr-Phe-Thr-Ser-Asp-Leu-Ser-Lys-Gln-Nle-Glu-Glu-Glu-Ala-Val-Arg-Leu-Phe-Ile-Glu-Trp-Leu-Lys-Gln-Gly-Gly-Pro-Ser-Ser-Gly-Ala-Pro-Pro-Pro-Cys-NH2
about 12 weeks old db/db mice 20 were randomized into two groups:
1)1000nmol/kg PEG40KD-group GLP-1;
2)1000nmol/kg PEG40KD-Exenatide group.
A single abdominal subcutaneous dose was administered according to mouse body weight (40 g. + -.3 g). Mice were observed for mortality within 14 days of dosing. Until the end of the observation period, none of the mice in the group of the present invention died and were freely moving, while 2 mice died in the comparative group.
The results show that: the physiological toxicity of the comparative example group was greater than that of the group of the present invention.
