Abstract

The present invention provides ligand-bound copper clusters (CuCs), formulations containing ligand-bound copper clusters, and their use in treating patients with liver cirrhosis.

Description

Ligand-bound copper clusters, compatibility of ligand-bound copper clusters and application of ligand-bound copper clusters in treatment of liver cirrhosis
The invention is a divisional application of invention patents based on application numbers of 2020113065781, application date of 11/19/2020, entitled "compatibility of ligand-bound copper clusters, ligand-bound copper cluster-containing copper clusters and application thereof in treating liver cirrhosis".
Technical Field
The present invention relates generally to the field of liver cirrhosis treatment technology, and more particularly to the formulation of ligand-bound copper clusters (CuCs), ligand-bound copper cluster-containing formulations, and their use in the treatment of liver cirrhosis.
Background
The liver is the largest solid organ of the human body and has many important functions, including: manufacturing blood proteins that aid in clotting, oxygen delivery, and the immune system; and storing excess nutrients and returning a portion of the nutrients to the blood; making bile to aid in the digestion of food; help the body store sugar (glucose) in the form of glycogen; eliminating harmful substances in vivo, including drugs and alcohol; breakdown saturated fats and produce cholesterol.
Cirrhosis is a slowly progressive disease that develops over many years due to long-term, persistent liver damage. As cirrhosis progresses, healthy liver tissue is gradually destroyed and replaced by scar tissue. These scar tissues can prevent blood flow through the liver and slow the liver's ability to process nutrients, hormones, drugs and natural toxins. It also reduces the production of proteins and other substances produced by the liver. Cirrhosis may ultimately lead to liver failure and/or liver cancer that may require liver transplantation.
In the early stage of cirrhosis, the liver compensation function is strong, and no obvious symptoms exist. The late stage symptoms comprise complications such as liver function damage, portal hypertension, upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, hepatic encephalopathy, secondary infection, spleen hyperfunction, ascites, canceration, etc. The liver gradually becomes deformed and hardened, and cirrhosis progresses. Histopathologically, cirrhosis manifests itself as extensive hepatocyte necrosis, nodular regeneration of residual hepatocytes, connective tissue proliferation and fibroseptal formation, leading to destruction of hepatic lobular structures and formation of false lobules.
Cirrhosis has different causes. Some patients with cirrhosis have liver damage due to a variety of causes. Common causes of cirrhosis include long-term alcohol abuse, chronic hepatitis b and c infection, fatty liver disease, toxic metals, genetic disorders, nutritional disorders, industrial poisons, pharmaceuticals, blood circulation disorders, metabolic disorders, cholestasis, schistosomiasis, and the like.
Cirrhosis can be diagnosed by a number of tests/techniques. For example, if liver enzymes including alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin levels are elevated and blood protein levels are reduced, a blood test may indicate cirrhosis.
Currently, although treatment can delay the progression of cirrhosis by eliminating the cause of cirrhosis, there is no specific treatment for cirrhosis.

Throughout this application, the disclosures of these publications in their entireties are hereby incorporated by reference into this application in order to more fully describe the state of the art to which this invention pertains.
The ligand-bound copper cluster comprises a copper core consisting of 2 to several hundred copper atoms, and a ligand; the ligand is bound to the copper core as a component of its molecule, forming a ligand-bound copper cluster that is stable in solution. Due to the low copper atom contrast, it is difficult to give a very accurate copper nucleus size by transmission electron microscopy, generally speaking, the copper nucleus size is 0.5-5nm by transmission electron microscopy.
The present invention provides copper clusters (CuCs) bound by one or more ligands, wherein the copper core is bound to the one or more ligands. The binding of the ligand to the copper core means that the ligand forms a complex stable in solution together with the copper core through a covalent bond, a hydrogen bond, an electrostatic force, a hydrophobic force or a van der waals force, or the like. In some embodiments, the diameter of the copper core is in the range of 0.5-5nm, preferably 0.5-3nm, more preferably 0.5-2.5 nm.

The test powder (GSH-CuCs sample) was dissolved in ultrapure water to 2mg/L as a sample, and then the test sample was prepared by the pendant-drop method. The specific method comprises the following steps: 5 mul of the sample was dropped on a copper mesh, and the sample was naturally volatilized until the water drops disappeared, and then the morphology of the sample was observed by a JEM-2100F STEM/EDS field emission high resolution transmission electron microscope.
A and B panels of FIG. 1 show typical scanning electron microscope images of GSH-CuCs, and their size distribution was calculated from different transmission electron microscope images. The result shows that the GSH-CuCs have good dispersibility, and the size of the GSH-CuCs is between 0.5 and 5.0 nm.
2) X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was measured on ESCALAB 250xi X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Double-sided conductive adhesive (3 mm. Times.3 mm) was attached to an aluminum foil, and test powder was uniformly applied to the double-sided adhesive tape and covered with a layer of aluminum foil. The sample was held at 8 mpa pressure for 1 minute. The residual powder on the surface was removed and then a central sample (1 mm. Times.1 mm) was cut out for XPS testing.
The C-frame of FIG. 1 is XPS spectrum of copper element in GSH-CuCs. The two peaks appear at 931.98 and 951.88eV, respectively, which can be attributed to the 2p of copper 3/2 And 2p 1/2 Binding energy of electrons. No Cu 2p near 942.0eV 3/2 Satellite peaks confirmed the absence of Cu (II) electrons. Since the binding energy of Cu (0) is only 0.1eV away from that of Cu (I), it is impossible to exclude the formation of Cu (I), and the valence of copper in the resulting GSH-CuCs is likely to be between 0 and + 1.
3) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
The FT-IR spectra were tested on a PerkinElemer LS 55 fluorescence spectrometer. The test powder was dissolved in ultrapure water and measured at room temperature. The scanning range is 200-800nm, the sample cell is a standard quartz test tube, and the light path is 1cm.
Fig. 1, panel D, shows a comparison of FT-IR spectra of GSH-CuCs (top) and GSH (bottom). GSH exhibits a number of characteristic infrared bands, namely COOH (1390 and 1500 cm) -1 ) N-H stretching (3410 cm) -1 ) And NH2 group N-H bend (1610 cm) -1 ). At 2503cm -1 The peak observed at (a) can be attributed to the S-H tensile vibration mode. Stretching vibration band (2503 cm) except S-H -1 ) In addition, GSH-CuCs have corresponding infrared characteristics. The results indicate that the S-H bond is broken and the GSH molecule is bound to the surface of the copper core through the formation of copper-sulfur bonds.
4) Fluorescence spectroscopy
The test powder was dissolved in ultrapure water and measured by fluorescence spectrometry at room temperature.
As shown in panel E of fig. 1, at an excitation peak of 365nm, the copper cluster showed red emission with a peak at 595nm and a corresponding full width at half maximum (FWHM) of about 80nm. Notably, due to the aggregation-induced emission enhancement, the FL intensity of GSH-CuCs will increase significantly when ethanol is added to the solution. In addition, large stokes shifts (230 nm) show good promise for fluorescent probes and bioimaging.

3.6 results of the experiment
3.6.1 successful mold making
The liver of the mouse in the model group is divided into round or oval masses with different sizes by the hyperplastic septa, ALT, TBil and AST indexes in serum are obviously increased relative to a blank control group, ALB is obviously reduced relative to the blank control group, and MAO indexes have no obvious difference with the blank control group, but the numerical value is also increased. All the results prompt that the mold making of the experiment is successful.
3.6.2 Effect of test drugs on alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (TBil), aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), monoamine oxidase (MAO) and Albumin (ALB)
As can be seen from FIG. 2A, the ALT activity in the model group showed a very significant increase (from an average of 43.5. + -. 8.1U/L to 188.5. + -. 4.9U/L, P < 0.01) relative to that in the blank control group, suggesting that liver function in the cirrhosis model mice was diseased. Compared with the model group, the low and high dose (the lowest 37.0 +/-5.7U/L and the highest 38.6 +/-5.6U/L) of Cu-1 and Cu-2 and the administration of a positive control (42.8 +/-5.4U/L) can significantly reduce ALT activity to the level of a blank control group (P < 0.01).
As can be seen from FIG. 2B, the AST activity of the model group showed a significant increase (from 141.8. + -. 13.5U/L to 192.0. + -. 11.3U/L, P < 0.05) relative to that of the blank control group. The AST activity can be obviously reduced to 146.3 +/-8.4U/L or 144.3 +/-8.1U/L by high-dose administration of Cu-1 and Cu-2 respectively, the AST activity is at the same level with a blank control group (141.8 +/-13.5U/L), and the AST activity is obviously different from that of a model control group (P is less than 0.01). Positive controls also reduced AST activity ((165.5 + -11.6U/L, P < 0.05), but at a lower magnitude than the high dose groups of Cu-1 and Cu-2.
As can be seen from FIG. 2C, the TBil concentration of the model group showed a significant increase (from 1.02. + -. 0.20. Mu. Mol/L to 2.91. + -. 0.39. Mu. Mol/L) relative to that of the blank control group, and was significantly different from that of the blank control group (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the serum TBil (the maximum is 1.16 +/-0.30 mu mol/L, the minimum is 1.08 +/-0.08 mu mol/L, and the P is less than 0.01) is remarkably reduced by the low dose and the high dose of Cu-1 and Cu-2, and the level is close to that of a blank control group (1.02 +/-0.20 mu mol/L).
As shown in FIG. 2D, the MAO activity in the model group was increased compared to that in the blank control group (18.8. + -. 2.9U/L for the blank control group and 21.5. + -. 0.7U/L for the model group), but there was no statistical difference, indicating that the carbon tetrachloride-induced change in the MAO activity index was not significant in the liver cirrhosis mice. However, compared with the model group, the high doses of Cu-1 and Cu-2 can respectively significantly reduce the serum MAO level to 17.3 +/-1.5U/L (P < 0.01) or 18.3 +/-2.1U/L (P < 0.05), and the effect is better than that of the positive control.
As can be seen from fig. 2E, the ALB level of the model group showed a significant decrease (from 24.2 ± 0.6g/L to 22.1 ± 1.3 g/L) relative to the ALB level of the blank group, which was significantly different from that of the blank group (P < 0.05), indicating that carbon tetrachloride treatment could significantly reduce serum ALB level. However, cu-1 and Cu-2 did not significantly affect serum ALB levels.
The results show that the ligand-bound copper cluster reduces ALT, AST, TBIL and MAO levels in a dose-dependent manner, and prompts the recovery of the liver function of a mouse, and the effect of the ligand-bound copper cluster is superior to that of a positive control medicament in at least some indexes
3.6.3 pathological assays
Cirrhosis is a pathological feature of diffuse fibrosis of liver tissue and the formation of pseudolobules. The results of HE staining pathological examination showed that, as shown in fig. 3A, the blank control group mice had clear normal liver tissue structure, intact liver lobules, aligned hepatocyte chords, radially arranged with central vein as the center, normal liver cell nuclei, and only a small amount of fibrous tissue in the region of the confluence; as shown in fig. 3B, in the liver of the model control group mouse, the arrangement of hepatocytes was disturbed, ballooning occurred, hepatic lobules were nearly disappeared, pseudolobules (right arrow in fig. 3B) appeared in large numbers, collagen fibers were proliferated in large numbers and formed round or oval fibrous spaces (left arrow in fig. 3B). Compared with the model control group, as shown in fig. 3C, the positive control group has obviously reduced liver damage degree, obviously tends to be neat in cell arrangement, collagen fibers are proliferated but obviously reduced, fibrous intervals are not formed, and false leaflets almost disappear; however, the gap between the liver cells of the positive control group was significantly increased compared to the normal liver tissue (downward arrow in fig. 3C). Compared with a model control group, the liver cells of the two copper cluster drug (Cu-1 and Cu-2) administration groups show extremely remarkable liver injury recovery phenomena, which are shown in that the fibroplasia and false lobule in the liver are obviously reduced, and certain dose dependence is shown.
Fig. 3D and 3E show HE staining patterns of the repair effect of low and high dose dosing on liver tissue damage, represented by Cu-1 copper clusters, respectively. As shown in fig. 3D, in the Cu-1 copper cluster low dose group, the hepatocytes were aligned, the pseudolobules were almost disappeared, the collagen fibril proliferation was also significantly decreased, and the hepatic cell gap was increased to some extent with respect to the normal liver tissue (indicated by the downward arrow in fig. 3D). As shown in fig. 3E, the Cu-1 copper cluster high dose administration group had a more significant improvement effect than the low dose administration group, the pseudolobules completely disappeared, the collagen fiber proliferation was not significant, the phenomenon of increase in the liver cell gap was hardly visible, and there was no significant difference from the normal liver cells. From this, it can be seen that the Cu-1 copper cluster drug exhibited better effect of repairing liver tissue damage than the positive control drug.
The Masson staining results were identical to the HE staining results.
The Cu-2 copper cluster drug also showed similar effects to the Cu-1 copper cluster drug.
In conclusion: the tested drugs of the Cu-1 and Cu-2 copper clusters obviously reduce liver fibroplasia and false lobule of liver. The liver function index test result also shows the phenomenon of liver function recovery. Of these, alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBil) are the most common. Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) also recovered significantly, and the change in Albumin (ALB) was not significant. The two copper cluster test substances can obviously improve the liver function and the pathological structure of the liver cirrhosis mouse in the liver cirrhosis mouse, and the overall effect is superior to that of the positive control sorafenib, thereby providing experimental basis for further application in the future.
