Technical Field
The present invention relates to a novel p62 ligand compound and a pharmaceutical or food composition for preventing or treating protein conformational diseases, comprising the same.
Background
The N-terminal canonical pathway is a proteolytic system in which a specific N-terminal residue of the protein serves as a degradation signal (fig. 1). The N-terminal regular degradation signal is through the type I basic residues including N-terminal arginine (Nt-Arg), lysine (Nt-Lys) and histidine (Nt-His); and type II hydrophobic residues including phenylalanine (Nt-Phe), leucine (Nt-Leu), tryptophan (Nt-Trp), tyrosine (Nt-Tyr), and isoleucine (Nt-Ile). These N-terminal residues bind to a specific N-recognizer (hereinafter referred to as N-ligand).
The present inventors have for the first time discovered or cloned previously known N recognizers, namely UBR1, UBR2, UBR4 and UBR5, and found that they utilize the UBR cassette as a substrate recognition domain (Tasaki, T., et al, Mol Cell Biol 25,7120-36 (2005)). The inventors have also found that the UBR cassette binds to type I N-terminal canonical ligands (Nt-Arg, Nt-Lys, Nt-His) such as the N-terminal arginine residue to recognize the substrate and link the ubiquitin chain to this substrate. It was further found that UBR1 and UBR2 have N domains (Sriram, S.M., Kim, B.Y. & Kwon, Y.T., Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 12,735-47(2011)) that play an important role in the binding of type 2N-terminal canonical ligands (Nt-Trp, Nt-Phe, Nt-Tyr, Nt-Leu, and Nt-Ile). The ubiquitinated substrate resulting from the binding between the N-recognizer and the N-terminal canonical ligand is delivered to the proteasome where it is degraded into short peptides. In this process, specific N-terminal residues (Nt-Arg, Nt-His, Nt-Lys, Nt-Trp, Nt-Phe, Nt-Tyr, Nt-Leu) are the primary determinants of binding, as the N-recognizer provides the majority of the hydrogen bonds required to target the N-terminal regular substrate (Sriram, S.M. & Kwon, y.t., Nat Struct Mol Biol 17,1164-5 (2010)).
If a misfolded protein that is poorly folded in a cell is retained for a long time, it is aggregated and blocks proteasome function or reduces other cellular functions that cause cytotoxic substances, and thus the misfolded protein is ubiquitinated by ubiquitin conjugating enzymes and delivered to proteasomes for degradation (Ji, C.H. & Kwon, y.t., Mol Cells 40,441-449 (2017)). In normal cells, this process is smooth and minimizes damage caused by misfolded proteins, while in senescent neurons it is slowed down so that ubiquitinated misfolded proteins accumulate and these excess protein waste is converted back into aggregates (Ciechanover, a. & Kwon, y.t., Exp Mol Med 47, e147 (2015)). In addition, neuronal cells of patients suffering from degenerative brain diseases such as huntington's disease, parkinson's disease, human mad cow disease, greige's disease, and the like have a strong property of converting specific mutant proteins into aggregates even in protein conformation diseases, and thus are not degraded by the proteasome as described above. The reason for this is that, since the proteasome has a narrow inner diameter of about 13 angstroms, a misfolded protein must be unfolded, and when the protein is aggregated, it is not unfolded.
Meanwhile, autophagy (autophagy) is a major intracellular protein degradation system in addition to the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Autophagy is a protein degradation process that substantially maintains cell homeostasis and gene stability by degrading organelles of aging or damaged Cells or proteins that are damaged or abnormally folded (Ji, C.H. & Kwon, y.t., Mol Cells 40,441- & 449 (2017)). In particular, when misfolded protein aggregates accumulate in the cytoplasm, they may become cytotoxic substances and therefore should be received and degraded by autophagy. The mechanisms of autophagy are mainly divided into major autophagy (macroautophagy), minor autophagy (microaautophagy) and concomitant protein-mediated autophagy, and they are divided into major autophagy and selective autophagy depending on the purpose of degrading intracellular substrates (Dikic, I. & Elazar, z., Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 19, 349-. Among these, selective autophagy and the accompanying protein-mediated autophagy cause the selective degradation of undesirable intracellular proteins and dysfunctional organelles. The development of new therapies based on diseases that accumulate pathologically misfolded proteins and dysfunctional organelles by inducing selective autophagy is currently establishing a new paradigm. The p62/SQSTM1/Sequestosome-1 protein is crucial for initiating the formation of autophagosomes as mediators in the mechanism of selective autophagy and for delivering the contents. At this time, p62/SQRSM1/Sequestosome-1 binds to misfolded proteins and aggregates thereof, and is thus delivered to autophagosomes. p62 undergoes self oligomerization as a key process in delivering misfolded proteins to autophagosomes (Ji, C.H. & Kwon, y.t., Mol Cells 40,441- & 449 (2017)). At this point, the misfolded proteins are concentrated together to reduce volume, thereby promoting degradation using autophagy. The PB1 region regulates the self-oligomerization of p62, but the mechanism of regulation is not well known. Misfolded protein-p 62 conjugates delivered to autophagosomes can be degraded by lysosomal enzymes when the autophagosomes bind to lysosomes. Through the mechanisms described above, autophagy is critical for maintaining cell homeostasis by modulating intracellular changes in damaged proteins and cellular organelles. When autophagy function is diminished, it leads to accumulation and aggregation of misfolded proteins, resulting in protein conformation disease (2015) (Ciechanover, a. & Kwon, y.t., Exp Mol Med 47, e 147). The key technology of the present invention is to provide a method for effectively eliminating misfolded proteins or aggregates thereof that cause protein conformational diseases. For this purpose, it is necessary to activate only selective autophagy and not to activate host autophagy, which has a broad effect on various biological pathways.
Active studies have been conducted on activation of autophagy to treat protein conformational diseases. The regulator that normally inhibits autophagy in subjects is mTOR. The method of activating autophagy using mTOR inhibitors is the most widely used (Jung, c.h., Ro, s.h., Cao, j., Otto, N.M. & Kim, d.h., FEBS Lett 584,1287-95 (2010)). In particular, amyloid β (Ab) and tau were eliminated while cognitive ability was simultaneously improved in AD animal models overexpressing APP by treatment with rapamycin (rapamycin) (Caccamo, a., Majumder, s., Richardson, a., Strong, R. & oldo, s., J Biol Chem 285,13107-20 (2010)); elimination of tau protein in an animal model of AD overexpressing tau protein (Rodriguez-Navarro, j.a. et al Neurobiol Dis 39,423-38 (2010); and elimination of overexpressed mutant alpha-synuclein protein aggregates in a PD mouse model (Webb, j.l., Ravikumar, b., Atkins, J., Skepper, J.N. & Rubinsztein, d.c., J Biol Chem 278,25009-13 (2003)). It was confirmed that huntingtin aggregates were effectively eliminated by using CCI-779 (a rapamycin-like substance) in HD mice, thereby improving animal behavior and cognitive ability (Ravikumar, b., Duden, R. & Rubinsztein, d.c., Hum Mol gene 11,1107-17 (2002)). However, mTOR plays an extremely important role in a variety of intracellular pathways including NF-kB. Thus, although it exhibits excellent activity to eliminate misfolded protein aggregates of protein conformation diseases, there is a limit in that these host autophagy activators (mTOR known to regulate host autophagy is a drug target) are used as therapeutic agents.
As described above, no effective therapeutic agent currently exists for the treatment of most protein conformational diseases. In the case where ubiquitin ligase ligands are used to eliminate misfolded proteins as a major cause, it is difficult to eliminate misfolded proteins when they are aggregated. Furthermore, mTOR inhibitors (which are the most commonly used compounds as a major autophagy activator) play a broad role in regulating overall gene expression in cells in response to stimuli from various external environments in addition to regulation of autophagy, and thus have disadvantages in terms of being unsuitable as therapeutic agents. Therefore, there is a need to develop a method for eliminating misfolded protein aggregates without reducing the activity of mTOR (a regulator of host autophagy) by activating p62 (a key regulator of selective autophagy).
Disclosure of Invention
Under these circumstances, the inventors have conducted extensive studies to find a preventive and therapeutic agent for protein conformational diseases, which uses a material that activates autophagy independently of mTOR, and thus found that a ligand that binds to p62, more particularly, to the ZZ domain of p62 binds to LC3 and activates autophagy, resulting in effective elimination of pathogenic protein aggregates such as mutant huntingtin and α -synuclein, and thus it can be used for the prevention, amelioration or treatment of various protein conformational diseases.

Yet another embodiment of the present invention provides a technique to eliminate misfolded protein aggregates, which are causative agents of degenerative brain diseases, by activating p62 that delivers the misfolded protein aggregates directly to autophagosomes.
The key technology of the present invention is to effectively eliminate misfolded protein aggregates (which cause degenerative brain diseases) by simultaneously activating p62 and autophagy.
The pharmacokinetics and key technology of the present invention are summarized in figure 1.
In particular, as shown in fig. 1, major pathogenic proteins of protein conformational diseases such as mutant huntingtin and α -synuclein are converted into water-insoluble misfolded proteins, and then aggregate with each other and grow into oligomeric aggregates. These misfolded proteins grow further while acting as cytotoxic substances in neurons and subsequently grow into large oligomeric or fibrous aggregates, eventually forming inclusion bodies. In the above process, endoplasmic reticulum associated protein (R) such as BiP is produced in large amounts of Nt-Arg by ATE 1R-transferase via N-terminal arginylation (R), and then arginylated BiP (R-BiP) is translocated into the cytoplasm and binds to misfolded huntingtin or α -synuclein (R). As a ligand, Nt-Arg of R-BiP binds to ZZ domain of p 62. Due to the binding, the abnormally activated closed form of p62 is changed to an open form, resulting in structural activation (iv) and thus exposing the region where PB1 and LC3 bind. This activation results in the formation of oligomers and high molecular weight aggregates due to the disulfide bond of p62 (c), and enhanced binding to the autophagosome marker LC3 that is ultimately delivered to the autolysosome (c). In addition, p62 bound to N-terminal arginine migrates to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and activates PI 3P-mediated autophagosome biosynthesis ((c)), thereby enhancing intracellular autophagy ((b)).
p62 is the first type of target proposed by the present inventors for autophagy activation (fig. 1, viii). Furthermore, studies that suggest p62 as a drug target for autophagy activation or elimination of protein aggregates in degenerative brain diseases have not been completed before.
Autophagy is a mechanism used to degrade or recover unwanted or depleted cellular components in cells and can contribute to the production of energy and metabolites used in biosynthetic processes under conditions such as nutrient and energy deprivation. The mechanism of autophagy is mainly divided into major autophagy, minor autophagy and concomitant protein-mediated autophagy, and it is divided into bulk autophagy and selective autophagy depending on the purpose of degrading intracellular matrices. Among these, selective autophagy and the accompanying protein-mediated autophagy cause the selective degradation of undesirable intracellular proteins and dysfunctional organelles. The development of new therapies based on diseases that accumulate misfolded proteins and dysfunctional organelles by inducing selective autophagy is currently establishing a new paradigm.
The p62 protein is crucial for initiating the formation of autophagosomes (as a mediator in the mechanism of selective autophagy) and for delivering the contents. It was observed that significant p62 activation of the novel p62 ligand according to the invention induced p62 to oligomerize on its own. In addition, in view of the fact that autophagosome targeting of p62 was increased via this self oligomerization, this suggests that the novel p62 ligands according to the invention can induce targeting and degradation of the p62 protein by intracellular autophagy. These results suggest that the novel p62 ligand compounds according to the present invention can be used as more effective or complementary substitutes for existing anti-protein disease drugs.
Proteolytic Targeting chimeras (PROTAC) are compound chimeras that recognize the ligand for the target protein and the ligand for the E3 ubiquitinase. Since the paradigm for existing therapeutics for diseases is inhibition of proteinases, it is important to develop a new therapeutic for diseases where proteins misfolded that cannot be targeted with existing therapeutics. From these perspectives, PROTAC is an attractive new therapy development approach to achieve selective degradation under the ubiquitin-proteasome system relative to proteins that cannot be targeted using conventional enzyme inhibition approaches. However, current research on PROTAC is limited to the use of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by using only ligands that recognize the E3 ubiquitinase, and thus has folding problems associated with misfolded proteins in the aforementioned proteasome system. In contrast, since the novel p62 ligand according to the present invention is capable of inducing not only intracellular autophagy, but also autophagosome targeting of a cargo substrate protein interacting with p62, it can provide novel therapeutic agents capable of selective degradation under protein autophagy mechanisms that cannot be targeted using conventional enzyme inhibition methods.
The novel compounds according to the present invention act as ligands binding to the ZZ domain of the p62 protein, facilitate the delivery of p62 to autophagosomes, activate autophagy, and eliminate misfolded protein aggregates, and are therefore useful as drugs for the prevention, amelioration, and treatment of various protein conformational diseases.
