Definitions
- the present invention relates to cycloundecadepsipeptide compounds and analogues presenting mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) inhibitory activity and reduced cytotoxicity.
- the present invention further relates to the pharmaceutical compositions containing cycloundecadepsipeptide compounds and analogues for use in the treatment and/or prevention of cell death associated disorders and diseases, related to the MPTP opening.
- MPTP mitochondrial permeability transition pore
- Oxidative stress accompanied by calcium overload, ATP depletion, and elevated phosphate levels induces mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) with formation of nonspecific MPT pores (MPTP) in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
- MPT mitochondrial permeability transition
- MPTP nonspecific MPT pores
- MPT results from opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (MPT pores or MPTP) (Halestrap 2010).
- MPT induction is a key event in cell death and is implicated in a variety of disorders and diseases. For example:
- MPT also appears to play a key role in damage caused by ischemia, as occurs in a heart attack and stroke (Baines, Kaiser et al. 2005; Nakagawa, Shimizu et al. 2005; Schinzel, Takeuchi et al. 2005; Halestrap 2010). • Research has shown that the MPT pore remains closed during ischemia, but opens once the tissues are reperfused with blood after the ischemic period, playing a role in reperfusion injury (Lim, Hausenloy et al. 2010).
- MPT is also thought to underlie the cell death induced by Reye's syndrome, since chemicals that can cause the syndrome, like salicylate and valproate, cause
- MPT may also play a role in mitochondrial autophagy (Lemasters, Nieminen et al. 1998).
- Neurodegeneration a process that results in damage and death of neurons, is also a disorder where MPTP is found to be involved (Barrientos, Martinez et al. ; Du and Yan ; Du, Guo et al. 2008; Ibarra and Martinon 2009; Martin, Gertz et al. 2009).
- MPTP plays an important role in muscular dystrophies (Palma, E., T. Tiepolo, et al. 2009; Millay, D. P., M. A. Sargent, et al. 2008
- MPTP is involved in cell death induced by metabolic stress and/or oxidative stress and/or loss of cellular calcium homeostasis and/or aging cells and/or toxic agents (pathogens) and/or infectious agents (pathogens) (Burke et al. 2007; King et al. 2008; Sokol et al. 2005; Plotnikov et al. 2009).
- MPTP is accepted as a therapeutic target for both pharmacological and conditional strategies to block pore formation by direct interaction with MPTP components or indirectly by decreasing MPTP inducers (Zorov, Juhaszova et al. 2009; Giorgio, Soriano et al. 2010).
- sanglifehrin A as well as attenuation of reactive oxygen species accumulation through mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, is the most promising.
- Inhibiting the opening of the MPTP can treat and/or prevent cell death associated disorders and diseases.
- the MPTP opening has an important role in triggering organ dysfunction and pathology.
- Cell death associated disorders and diseases, wherein the MPTP opening is involved include but are not limited to, ischaemia-reperfusion injuries, metabolic and/or oxidative stress disorders, diseases involving loss of cellular calcium homeostasis, age related cellular degeneration, diseases involving toxic and/or infectious pathogens.
- Ischaemia and ischaemia-reperfusion injury the opening of the MPTP may be induced by ischaemia-reperfusion and can play an important role in the following diseases or conditions:
- cell death associated diseases or disorders relate to the MPTP opening, involve organ dysfunction or pathologies in which the opening of the MPTP may be also an important trigger for cell death and is induced by metabolic stress and/or oxidative stress and/or loss of cellular calcium homeostasis and/or aging cells and/or toxic agents (pathogens) and/or infectious agents (pathogens) including but not limited to:
- muscular dysthrophies including but not limited to Ulrich congenital
- ⁇ neurodegenerative diseases including but not limited to: amyothrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (Martin, Gertz et al. 2009; Martin 2010), Alzheimer disease (Du and Yan 2010), Parkinson disease , multiple sclerosis (Forte, Gold et al. 2007), Huntington disease (Brustovetsky, Houseovetsky et al. 2003)
- Agents that block MPT include the immune suppressant cyclosporin A (CsA) N-methyl-Val-4-cyclosporin A (MeVal-4-CsA), a non-immunosuppressant derivative of CsA; another non-immunosuppressive agent, NIM81 1 , 2- aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), and bongkrekic acid.
- CsA immune suppressant cyclosporin A
- MeVal-4-CsA N-methyl-Val-4-cyclosporin A

- An advantage of the compounds according to the present invention may lie in the impact of an ester bond within macro cyclic backbone in comparison to the regular cyclic amide backbone of the corresponding cycloundecapeptide compounds described in the prior art. Without being bound to theory, it is believed that the replacement of an amide by an ester bond between amino-acid AXX 7 in position 7 and D-HIV in position 8 results in a strong effect upon the conformational and physico-chemical properties such as increased conformational flexibility and lipophilicity as well as the absence of a hydrogen donor bond.

- D-MeAla-EtVal-Leu-MeLeu-Ala-OMe was used to the next coupling step without further purification.
- a sample of crude product (23 mg) was re-purified by semi- preparative RP-HPLC and the peptide was lyophilized to give Fragment (Ba) H-Abu-D-MeAla-EtVal-Leu-MeLeu-Ala-OMe as a white powder.
- the MPTP activity was evaluated by measuring the Calcium Retention Capacity (CRC) of mouse liver mitochondrial preparations.
- CRC Calcium Retention Capacity
- MPC Permeability Transition Pore
- CRC of mitochondria was assessed fluorimetrically using the Ca2+ indicator Calcium Green-5N. Mitochondria was incubated 1 min with ranging concentrations of the test compound and the concentration of compound necessary to double the CRC (IC 2 ) was determined by constructing dose-response curves.
- Mitochondria were isolated from the liver of 9-10 week old male C57BI/6j mice. After isolation the liver was kept at 4°C in a Tris-buffered (pH 7.4) sucrose-based isotonic solution and quickly minced and homogenized with a Teflon/glass potter. The suspension was spun for 6 min at 700 x g, and the resulting supernatant was spun for 6 min at 7,000 x g. The mitochondrial pellet was carefully resuspended in excess volume of sucrose buffer and spun again as above. The final mitochondrial pellet was resuspended with a minimal volume of sucrose buffer. Protein concentration was determined with the biuret method. Mitochondrial suspensions were used immediately and not beyond 4 h from isolation.
- the CRC of mitochondrial preparations was assessed fluorimetrically in the presence of the Ca 2+ indicator Calcium Green-5N at room temperature using a Fluoroskan Ascent FL fluorometer (Thermo Electron Corporation).
- Every treatment was represented by the mean value ⁇ SD of (1 ) the CRC and (2) the ratio between CRC (as just defined) and CRCo (concentration of Ca 2+ which opens the PTP in the absence of the compound).
- IC2 (nM) was calculated as the concentration of compound necessary to double the CRC, relative to the CRC observed in the absence of any compound (CRCo).
- Cytotoxicity was evaluated by measuring proliferation of HepG2 cells. Cells were incubated with ranging concentrations of the test compound for 72hrs. Cell proliferation is measured by the signal intensity of the incorporated nuclear dye. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 5 0) was determined by constructing dose-response curves.
- Cells were grown in RPMI 1640, 10%FBS, 2 mM L-alanyl-L-Glutamine, 1 mM Na Pyruvate or a special medium in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37°C. Cells were seeded into 384-well plates and incubated in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37°C. Compounds were added 24 hours post cell seeding. At the same time, a time zero untreated cell plate was generated.
- IC 5 o is the test compound concentration that produces 50% of the cell proliferation inhibitory response or 50% cytotoxicity level.
- AIM MathlQ based software
- Table 1 shows that the selected compounds according to the invention have a MPTP inhibitory activity at least equal to half of the CsA activity as well as at least equal to half of the activity of the compounds of the prior art.
- the selected compounds of the invention are at least three-fold less cytotoxic than CsA as well as least three-fold less cytotoxic than the compounds of the prior art.
- Example 3 Acute pancreatitis Models The compounds have been shown to significantly ameliorate disease outcome in the bile acid-induced murine acute pancreatitis model which closely reproduce clinical pathologies.
- the bile acid-induced murine acute pancreatitis model is similar to gallstone induced clinical acute pancreatitis, which results from retrograde passage of bile into the pancreatic duct when gallstones impact at the sphincter of Oddi.
- Gallstone pancreatitis is the commonest form of the disease within the majority of countries in the world, except those where alcohol consumption is relatively very high.
- Biliary pancreatitis was induced by retrograde perfusion of the pancreatic duct with 2 mM TLCS; sacrifice and assessments were made 24 hours later (Laukkarinen, J.M. et al, 2007).
- the bile acid-induced murine acute pancreatitis model is a close representative of clinical acute pancreatitis, underlining the possible clinical utility of an early administration of compound 057 as a treatment for this disease.
