TECHNICAL FIELD

This invention relates to a series of substituted heterocyclic compounds which are inhibitors of receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) kinase-mediated disease or disorder and use the therapeutics.


RELATED ART

Receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) kinase is a serine/threonine protein kinase, referred to as RIPK1, RIP1 or RIP. RIP1 kinase has a crucial role whether the cell live or die. RIP1 is involved in the apoptosis and non-apoptotic cell death; necroptosis [1]. The intracellular domains of TNF receptor1 (TNFR1), FAS and TRAIL receptor 2 (TRAILR2) together include death domain (DD), they were stimulated by ligands tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), Fas ligand (FASL) and TRAIL which recruit RIP1 and binding of their DD to that of RIP1. Stimulation of TNFR1 by TNFα leads to the formation of the complex I which leads to the activation of NF-kB has an important role in modulating the RIP1 of activation and activates an important cell survival program [2]. RIP1 activation can lead to cell death pathway by the formation of a RIP1-TNF receptor associated death domain protein (TRADD)-FAS-associated DD protein (FADD)—caspase 8 complexes (complex IIa), which stimulates caspase activation and leads to RIPK1-dependent apoptosis (RDA). [3-9]. If caspase-8 activity is blocked, the recruited protein receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) kinase which drives necroptosis by driving formation of a RIP1-RIP3-mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) complex (complex IIb), which drives the cell lysis and disruption of cell membrane [10-11].


Necroptosis and RIP1 have been serve a crucial checkpoint during embryonic development. The activation of necroptosis and RIP1 may represent an important pathological mechanism and implicated in many human diseases by mediating cell death and inflammation. Necroptosis may also has been related to disordered of pathogenesis of the central nervous system (CNS) diseases, atherosclerosis, Huntington's disease, colitis, steatohepatitis, acute hepatitis, stroke, myocardial infarction, the intestinal epithelium and skin. Therefore, necroptosis inhibitors are a crucial role for clinical drug development. [12-14]


Necroptosis can be inhibited by inactivating RIP1 kinases or RIP3 kinase. The first and often used inhibitor of necroptosis is RIP1-inhibitor necrostatin-1 (Nec-1). Nec-1 demonstrated efficiency in vitro and in vivo. Nec-1 ameliorated renal and brain ischemia/reperfusion injury, ConA-induced hepatitis, DSS-induced colitis and decreased the symptoms of Huntington's disease in a murine study [15-19].


The novel compounds of this invention inhibit RIP1 kinase activity and are, therefore, expected to be-useful in the treatment of disease and/or condition associated with inflammation and/or necroptotic cell death [20].


In recent, RIP1 kinase inhibitors differ structurally from necrostatin class of compounds [21-22].

The term “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances in which it does not. For example, “optionally substituted alkyl” means either “alkyl” or “substituted alkyl” as defined below. Further, an optionally substituted group may be un-substituted (e.g., CH2CH3), fully substituted (e.g., CF2CF3), mono-substituted (e.g., CH2CH2F) or substituted at a level anywhere in-between fully substituted and mono-substituted (e.g., CH2CHF2, CF2CH3, CFHCHF2, etc.). It will be understood by those skilled in the art with respect to any group containing one or more substituents that such groups are not intended to introduce any substitution or substitution patterns (e.g., substituted alkyl includes optionally substituted cycloalkyl groups, which in turn are defined as including optionally substituted alkyl groups, potentially ad infinitum) that are sterically impractical and/or synthetically non-feasible. Thus, any substituents described should generally be understood as having a maximum molecular weight of about 1,000 daltons, and more typically, up to about 500 daltons (except in those instances where macromolecular substituents are clearly intended, e.g., polypeptides, polysaccharides, polyethylene glycols, DNA, RNA and the like).


As used herein, C1-Cn, includes C1-C2, C1-C3, . . . C1-Cn. By way of example only, a group designated as “C1-C4” indicates that there are one to four carbon atoms in the moiety, i.e. groups containing 1 carbon atom, 2 carbon atoms, 3 carbon atoms or 4 carbon atoms, as well as the ranges C1-C2 and C1-C3. Thus, by way of example only, “C1-C4 alkyl” indicates that there are one to four carbon atoms in the alkyl group, i.e., the alkyl group is selected from among methyl, ethyl, propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, and t-butyl. Whenever it appears herein, a numerical range such as “1 to 10” refers to each integer in the given range; e.g., “1 to 10 carbon atoms” means that the group may have 1 carbon atom, 2 carbon atoms, 3 carbon atoms, 4 carbon atoms, 5 carbon atoms, 6 carbon atoms, 7 carbon atoms, 8 carbon atoms, 9 carbon atoms, or 10 carbon atoms.


The terms “heteroatom” or “hetero” as used herein, alone or in combination, refer to an atom other than carbon and hydrogen. Heteroatoms are independently selected from among oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorous, silicon, selenium and tin but are not limited to these atoms. In embodiments in which two or more heteroatoms are present, the two or more heteroatoms can be the same as each another, or some or all of the two or more heteroatoms can each be different from the others.


The term “alkyl” as used herein, alone or in combination, refers to an optionally substituted straight-chain, or optionally substituted branched-chain saturated hydrocarbon monoradical having from one to about ten carbon atoms, more preferably one to six carbon atoms.

Whenever it appears herein, a numerical range such as “C1-C6 alkyl” or “C1_6 alkyl”, means that the alkyl group may consist of 1 carbon atom, 2 carbon atoms, 3 carbon atoms, 4 carbon atoms, 5 carbon atoms or 6 carbon atoms, although the present definition also covers the occurrence of the term “alkyl” where no numerical range is designated.


The term “aliphatic” as used herein, alone or in combination, refers to an optionally substituted, straight-chain or branched-chain, non-cyclic, saturated, partially unsaturated, or fully unsaturated nonaromatic hydrocarbon. Thus, the term collectively includes alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl groups.


The terms “cycle”, “cyclic”, “ring” and “membered ring” as used herein, alone or in combination, refer to any covalently closed structure, including alicyclic, heterocyclic, aromatic, heteroaromatic and polycyclic fused or non-fused ring systems as described herein. Rings can be optionally substituted. Rings can form part of a fused ring system. The term “membered” is meant to denote the number of skeletal atoms that constitute the ring. Thus, by way of example only, cyclohexane, pyridine, pyran and pyrimidine are six-membered rings and cyclopentane, pyrrole, tetrahydrofuran and thiophene are five-membered rings.


The term “cycloalkyl” as used herein, alone or in combination, refers to an optionally substituted, saturated, hydrocarbon monoradical ring, containing from three to about fifteen ring carbon atoms or from three to about ten ring carbon atoms, though may include additional, non-ring carbon atoms as substituents (e.g. methylcyclopropyl).

Biological Activity
Cell Culture:

Human colon carcinoma cell HT-29 (KCLB 30038), BV2 mouse microglial cell (cell was a kind gift from Dr. Nak-Yun Sung, Senior researcher at Korea Prime Pharmacy CO., LTD.) and human microglial cell HMC3 (ATCC® CRL-3304™). HT-29 cell was grown in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640, BV2 cell was grown in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) and HMC3 cell was grown in Minimum Essential Media Eagle (MEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% mixture of penicillin and streptomycin (Gibco). Cells were maintained at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere.


Cell-Based Necroptosis Assay for RIPK1 Activity:

To measure the activity of RIPK1 inhibitor in necroptotic cells, HT-29 cells were treated by control DMSO, human TNFα (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, USA), SM-164 (Biovision, California, USA) and a pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK (Invivogen, San Diego, USA). Cells were pretreated with Z-VAD-FMK 20 μM. After 30 min, human TNFα 10 ng/ml, SM-164 100 nM and RIPK1 Inhibitor (0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.1, 1, 10 uM) were treated for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK-8) (Dong-in, Seoul, Korea).


Immunoblotting:

Biological activity of the compounds of RIPK1 inhibitor was determined by measuring their ability to inhibitor TNFα induced phospho-RIPK1 (ser 166) levels, phospho-RIPK3 levels, phospho-MLKL levels in HMC3 cells. Cells were pretreated with Z-VAD-FMK 20 PM. After 30 min, human TNFα 20 ng/ml, SM-164 100 nM and RIPK1 inhibitor (0.1, 1, 10 nM) were treated for 7 h under serum free media. Cells were lysed with cold lysis buffer containing 25 mM HEPES pH 7.6, 150 nM NaCl, 1% NP40, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, and protease inhibitor mixture (Bimake, Houston, USA) using sonicators. The cells were centrifuged at 15,000 rpm, 4° C. for 5 min. After protein concentration of the lysates (supernatants) was quantified using BCA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, USA), lysates were mixed with LDS sample buffer and heating at 70 for 10 min. (Invitrogen, California, USA). Extracts were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) followed by electro-transfer to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes and probed with an anti-phospho-RIPK1 antibody, anti-phospho-RIPK3 antibody and anti-phospho-MLKL antibody (Cell Signaling technology, Danvers, USA) and 3-actin (Proteintech, Rosement, USA), followed by horseradish peroxidase conjugated anti-rabbit (Cell Signaling technology, Danvers, USA), anti-mouse IgG and revealed with Super Signal West dura kit (Pierce). The membranes are placed in an image analyzer (Imagequant, LAS 500, GE Healthcare), connected to a computer which allows the image generation (software Image reader LAS 500).


Inflammation Cytokine:

Total RNA was extracted and purified from PureLink™ RNA mini kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, USA) according to the manufacture's protocol. Reverse transcription reactions were performed with AccuPower CycleScript RT PreMix (dT20) (Bioneer, Daejeon, Korea). Synthesis of cDNA was carried out using SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA) and RT-PCR conditions were 15° C. for 30 sec, 42° C. for 4 min, 55° C. for 30 sec in 12 cycles, and heat inactivation was performed 95° C. for 5 min. For qPCR, SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, USA) was used in QuantStudio 3 (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA) and the PCR conditions were 95° C. for 10 min, 40 cycles of 95° C. for 15 s, and 60° C. for 30 s. The relative mRNA levels were calculated using cycle threshold (Ct) method. GAPDH was used as the endogenous control. PCR primers used in this study are listed in Table 1.
