Cell-specific glycopeptide ligands

Abstract
Cell-specific ligands comprising conjugates of saccharides and amino acids or peptides are synthesized from amino acids such as ornithine, lysine, peptides such as dilysine, diornithine or oligolysine and selected saccharides having reactive functional groups protected by appropriate blocking groups. Such glycopeptides are useful as tissue specific substances, which when coupled with bioactive materials through metabolizable or hydrolyzable linkages, deliver such bioactive materials to the selected site. In this manner, antiinflammatory drugs such as dexamethasone are linked through a metabolizable or hydrolyzable linkage and on administration to an animal suffering from inflammatory disease carries the drug to the site of inflammation for intracellular release. Other examples include the macrophage ligand N.sup.2 -N.sup.2, N.sup.6 -Bis-[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-6-lysyl-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine, 5, which when coupled to .beta.-glucocerebrosidase, can deliver the enzyme selectively to kupffer cells. This is useful in the enzyme replacement therapy of Gaucher's disease.
Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The use of drugs for therapeutic purposes would be greatly enhanced by a method which would introduce them selectively into those cells where the pharmacological action is needed. Several approaches to accomplish this purpose have been investigated. Two groups of investigators; J. C. Chabala and T. Y. Shen, Carbohyd. Res., 67, 55 (1978); M. M. Ponpipom, R. L. Bugianesi, and T. Y. Shen, Canad. J. Chem. 58, 214 (1980), M. R. Mauk, R. C. Gamble and J. D. Baldeschwieler, Science 207, 309 (1980); Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77, 4430 (1980), have synthesized and incorporated glycolipids into liposomes and studied their distribution in vivo showing the importance of carbohydrates as cell-surface determinants.
Other investigators have studied the use of human albumin microspheres covalently coupled to succinoyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-ValCH.sub.2 Cl which is an active site-directed inhibitor of human leukocyte elastase. These investigators reported that such conjugates directed the inhibitor to the lungs when administered intravenously in rats, R. R. Martodam, D. Y. Twumasi, I. E. Liener, J. C. Powers, N. Nishino and G. Krejcarek, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 76, 2128 (1979). Earlier work of G. Ashwell and A. Morell, Adv. Enzmol. 41, 99 (1974) demonstrated that exposed sugar residues in glycoproteins serve as determinants for in vivo (i.e. clearance) and in vitro (i.e. uptake) recognition.
Many other selective drug delivery systems have been described, G. Gregoriadis (Ed.) "Drug Carriers in Biology and Medicine", Academic Press 1979; Nature 265, 407 (1977) including binding a drug or dose of radioactive atom to tumor specific antibodies. In addition, deoxynucleic acid (DNA) has been used as a carrier for antitumor drugs such as daunorubicin, adriamycin and ethidium bromide.
These methods, although useful in certain cases have some problems. In some cases the targeting is too imprecise and the payload too small. Use of DNA and liposomes as carriers also has certain problems related to potential toxicity and pharmaceutical requirements.
The present invention provides a tissue specific ligand which is chemically bound to a bioactive agent for administration and which is specific in its targeting ability. The ligand is carefully selected to avoid toxicity or side effects and is relatively easy to prepare and standardize for in vivo administration.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention in the present instance includes a composition for chemically binding drugs or other bioactive substance for administration and delivery of the bioactive substance to a preselected tissue site.
The composition of the present invention comprises a relatively low molecular weight chemical conjugate comprising a saccharide moiety preferably including 1-4 linked monosaccharide units functionaly linked to a polyfunctional backbone which in turn is optionally linked to a biologically active moiety for delivery to specific tissues for intracellular release. The polyfunctional backbone comprises from 1 to 4 alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or aralkyl residues linked through a functional substituent selected from O--; S--; NH--; --S--S--; ##STR1## These compositions are symbolically represented as follows:
[Sa].sub.n --B.sub.n --[BA].sub.n
wherein Sa is a saccharide comprising from 1 to 4 linked monosaccharide units.
B is a polyfunctional backbone and spacer arm moiety represented by --Xn(W).sub.n Y.sub.n -- wherein X and Y are the same or different and are selected from --O--; --S--; --NH--; --S--S--; ##STR2## W is selected from lower alkyl, lower alkenyl, aryl, or aralkyl e.g. phenyl or benzyl;
n is an integer of from 1 to 4 inclusive and BA represents a biologically active substance or hydrogen.
The saccharide employed in the composition of the present invention is a saccharide comprising from 1-4 monosaccharide units containing for example as monosaccharide units D-Man(D-mannose), D-Gal(D-galactose), L-Fuc(L-fucose), D-GlcNAc(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose), NeUNAc(N-acetylneuraminic acid), D-Glc(D-glucose), GalNAc(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose) and substituted derivatives thereof.
Such conjugates, wherein BA represents hydrogen, are saccharide containing ligands which can be reversibly linked to a biologically active substance for selective delivery to tissues and organs for intracellular release. The biologically active substances include enzymes, hormones, genetic fragments, antibiotics, and radioactive isotopes.
The composition of the present invention is preferably a synthetic glycopeptide which can be chemically bound by means of a hydrolyzable or metabolizable linkage to a drug or other bioactive substance.
Preferred compositions of the present invention include novel glycopeptides comprising a compound including a peptide moiety selected from one or more amino acids such as serine, cysteine, ornithine, diornithine, lysine, dilysine and oligolysines or a mixture of these functionalized amino acids; a saccharide moiety including a mono-, di- or oligosaccharide or thiosaccharide moiety and an alkylenecarbonyl linking function, said linking carbonyl function forming an amide linkage with the amine groups of said peptide moiety and a hemiacetal or a thiohemiacetal linkage with the aromatic carbon of said saccharide moiety and preferably containing from 1-8 carbon atoms.
Thus, the composition prepared in accordance with the present invention include for example glycopeptides derived from ornithine, lysine, dilysine or an oligolysine of the general formula: ##STR3## wherein R is a saccharide compound selected from the group consisting of ##STR4## and R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl and NHR.sub.2 in which R.sub.2 is 6-aminohexyl, and acid addition salts thereof.
Although the compounds illustrated hereinabove disclose glycopeptide compounds in which the saccharide moiety is linked to the peptide through a sulfur linkage and a methylene or ethylene chain connected to the amide linkages, applicant includes as part of the subject invention the corresponding compounds in which the sulfur linkage is replaced by oxygen. It is further noted that the alkylene chain in addition to methylene and ethylene can include alkylene chains preferably containing from 1-8 carbon atoms.
Preferably the compositions of the subject invention are glycopeptides of ornithine, lysine or dilysine or an oligolysine and a selected sugar residue derived from galactose, fucose, mannose and other saccharides including di- and oligosaccharides. Especially preferred compositions are derivatives of ornithine, dilysine, lysine and oligolysine selected from N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine (5); N-6-aminohexyl-N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-manopyranosylthio)propionyl-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysinamide trifluoroacetate salt (7); N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine (12); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[1-imino-2-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio) ethyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[1-imino-2-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)ethyl]-L-lysine (17); N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-D-lysine (14); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine (16); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3(.beta.-D-galactopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.beta.-D-galactopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine (20); N-6-aminohexyl-N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup. 6 -bis[3-(.beta.-D-galactopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.beta.-D-galactopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysinamide trifluoroacetate salt (22); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.beta.-L-fucopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.beta.-L-fucopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysine (26); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bia[(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)acetyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)acetyl]-L-lysine (32); N-6-aminohexyl-N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-lysinamide trifluoroacetate salt (34); N.sup.2,N.sup.5 -[bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosylthio)propionyl]-L-ornithine (37); Man.sup.9 Lys.sup.8 (39); N.sup.2 -{N.sup.2,N.sup.6 -bis[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosyl)propionyl]-L-lysyl}-N.sup.6 -[3-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosyl)propionyl]-L-lysine (41).
The compositions of the present invention are prepared by reactions of ornithine, lysine, dilysine, or an oligolysine with w-carboxyalkyl per-0-acylglycosides or -1-thioglycosides that involve amide-bond formation. The carbohydrates selected can be mannose, galactose, fucose or other saccharides including di- and oligosaccharides.
The corresponding compounds in which the amide linkage is replaced by an amidine linkage are prepared by reaction of ornithine, lysine, dilysine, or oligolysine with 2-imino-2-methoxyethyl 1-thioglycosides of mannose, galactose, fucose or other saccharides including di- and oligosaccharides. These intermediates are illustrated in the case of L-lysine by the following formula: ##STR5## in which R is illustrated as follows: ##STR6##
Compounds of the type in which the glycopeptide contains a terminal amino function are readily prepared from the corresponding glycopeptide having a free carboxyl group by reaction of the said glycopeptide with a monoblocked hexylamine, e.g., 6-t-butyloxycarbonylaminohexylamine, in the presence of a condensing agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide followed by hydrolysis of the 6-(butyloxycarbonyl) function and resultant production of an intermediate compound of the formula ##STR7## and the corresponding oligolysine derivatives wherein R is as described above.
In addition to the novel glycopeptide composition described hereinabove the present invention also includes adducts of said glycopeptides with known bioactive substances. Said adducts are preferably formed by amidation of a terminal amine function of the glycopeptide compound to form an amide which is readily hydrolyzed intracellularly or is formed as an ester with a free carboxyl function of the glycopeptide compound.
