Thyroid hormone analogs. Synthesis of 3'-substituted 3,5-diiodo-L-thyronines and quantitative structure-activity studies of in vitro and in vivo thyromimetic activities in rat liver and heart
摘要:
Twenty-nine novel 3'-substituted derivatives of the thyroid hormone 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) have been synthesized by using established methods and by a new route involving manipulation of a 3'-formyl intermediate. In vitro hormone receptor binding (to intact nuclei) and in vivo thyromimetic activity (induction of mitochondrial 3-phosphoglycerate oxidoreductase, GPDH) were measured in rat liver and heart for these new analogues and for the 18 previously reported 3'-substituted 3,5-diiodo-L-thyronines. Analysis of the binding data using theoretical conformational and quantitative structure-affinity methods implies that the 3'-substituent recognition site on the thyroid hormone receptor is hydrophobic and limited in depth to the length of the natural iodo substituent, but has sufficient width to accommodate a phenyl or cyclohexyl group. Receptor binding is reduced by approximately 10-fold in 3'-acyl derivatives which form strong intramolecular acceptor hydrogen bonds with the adjacent 4'-hydroxyl. The compounds studied showed no differences in their relative affinities for heart and liver nuclei, suggesting that receptors in these tissues are similar. However, the relationships between thyromimetic activity (induction of GPDH) and nuclear binding showed some tissue differences. A high correlation between activity and binding is observed for full agonists in the heart, but an equally significant correlation for the liver data is only seen when 3'-substituent bulk (molar refractivity) is included in the analysis. These results suggest the possibility that differential tissue penetration or access to receptors may occur in vivo.
The current invention provides peptide nucleic acid derivatives targeting the 3′ splice site of exon 4 in the human SCN9A pre-mRNA. The peptide nucleic acid derivatives potently induce SCN9A mRNA splice variant(s) lacking the SCN9A exon 4 in cells, and are useful to safely treat pains or conditions involving Nav1.7 activity.
A peptide nucleic acid derivative of Formula I is provided to tightly bind to a splice site within a pre-mRNA in a sequence specific manner. Given with excellent cell membrane permeability and strong affinity for RNA, the said peptide nucleic acid derivative induces exon skipping in cells treated with the peptide nucleic acid at sub-femtomolar concentration as “naked” oligonucleotide. The said compound shows therapeutic activity in subjects upon systemic administration even at 1 μg/Kg or less, and therefore is useful to treat a disease or symptom at affordable treatment cost.

Provided are peptide nucleic acid derivatives targeting the 5′ splice site of “exon 5” within the human androgen receptor pre-mRNA. The peptide nucleic acid derivatives potently induce splice variants of the androgen receptor mRNA in cells, and are useful to safely treat dermatological indications or conditions involving androgenic activity upon topical administration.
Provided are peptide nucleic acid derivatives targeting a part of the human HIF-1α pre-mRNA. The peptide nucleic acid derivatives potently induce exon skipping to yield splice variants of HIF-1α mRNA in cells, and are useful to treat indications or conditions involving the overexpression of HIF-1α.
