Title: COMPOUND FOR INHIBITING RORyt ACTIVITY, PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR AND APPLICATION THEREOF

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical synthesis, in particular to a compound for inhibiting RORγt activity, a preparation method therefor and application thereof. 
     BACKGROUND 
     At present, autoimmune diseases affect 5% of the world&#39;s population. More than 70 kinds of human diseases, including psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and inflammatory bowel disease, are associated with autoimmune disorders (Goodnow et al., 2005). At present, the treatment of autoimmune diseases mainly relies on some non-selective immunosuppressants, which have limited efficacy and large side effects. Therefore, there are no very specific drugs for the treatment of autoimmune diseases in clinical practice. Therefore, the development of new autoimmune drugs with high efficacy and low side effects has become an urgent clinical need. 
     Studies have shown that a T cell subset, Th17, is associated with the occurrence of human autoimmune diseases and related animal models (Linden 2006; Kikly et al., 2006). In rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease and other autoimmune diseases, the expression of IL17, a characteristic cytokine of the Th17 cells, is up-regulated, and inhibiting the expression of IL17 and the formation of Th17 cells can reduce the occurrence or clinical severity of autoimmune diseases (Bowman et al., 2006; Kikly et al., 2006). Existing studies have shown that the differentiation and formation of the Th17 cell are controlled by a transcription factor RORγt. In RORγt knockout mice, the differentiation ability of Th17 cells is reduced, and the number of Th17 cells is reduced, and the probability of induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) autoimmune disease in mice and clinical scoring index is significantly reduced (Ivanov et al., 2006). This means that a RORγt functional inhibitor can be used as a directional target for the development of therapeutic drugs for Th17-mediated autoimmune diseases. 
     RORγt is a member of steroid nuclear receptor family, and its protein molecule includes a conserved DNA binding domain and a ligand binding domain composed of 12 helices. The ligand binding domain is an important region for ligand binding, nuclear localization, and dimer forming. Steroid receptor co-activator molecules (SRCs) can bind to AF2 region of a ligand domain to depolymerize a transcription inhibitory complex, recruit transcription activator molecules, and initiate the transcription of related genes (Glass and Rosenfeld, 2000). At present, a natural ligand of RORγt has not been found, but two recent studies have found that a synthetic molecule digoxin and derivatives thereof (Huh et al., 20011; Fujita-Sato et al., 2011) and SR1001 (Solt et al., 2011) can specifically bind to the ligand domain of RORγt to inhibit the function of RORγt and reduce the differentiation ability of Th17 cells, and alleviation the clinical symptoms of autoimmune disease EAE in mice. However, digoxin and derivatives thereof are very toxic (Paula et al., 2005), and SR1001 molecule, even administrated at high concentrations (40 mg/kg), can only reduce the clinical symptoms of EAE slightly in vivo although it can effectively inhibit the differentiation of Th17 cells in vitro. In addition, SR1001 can interact with other RORs, thus has poor selectivity (Solt et al., 2011). On the one hand, these studies show that inhibiting the function of RORγt to treat autoimmune diseases is a feasible solution, but an ideal target drug has not yet been found. Therefore, looking for an RORγt functional inhibitor with high efficiency, low toxicity, and strong specificity will be an important aspect for the development of drugs for Th17-mediated autoimmune diseases.

     Use of the compound for inhibiting RORγt activity as described in any of the above embodiments in preparation of a therapeutic formulation for treatment of autoimmune diseases, in preparation of a formulation that inhibits formation of a Th17 cell, in preparation of a formulation that inhibits RORγt transcription activity, or in preparation of a formulation that inhibits transcription and expression of IL17A gene and/or IL17F gene. 
     In the present disclosure, it has been found by means of researching that the compounds having the structural formula (A) have a good inhibitory effect on RORγt activity. Specifically, luciferase activity reporter system and Th17 cell differentiation experiments prove that the compound may inhibit the transcription effect of a key transcription factor RORγt for Th7 cell differentiation, and may inhibit the transcription and expression of genes IL17A and IL17F targeted by RORγt. The intracellular expression of IL17A at the protein level is also significantly inhibited as detected by the flow cytometer, indicating that the compound molecule has an obvious inhibitory effect on Th17 cell activity. Therefore, the compound may be used to produce a formulation of corresponding activity inhibitor, and provide a leading structure for the development of therapeutic drugs for autoimmune diseases. 
     In particular, in the present disclosure, seed compounds of the compound represented by structural formula (A) have been further researched and subjected to substitution. For some of the substituents, creative designs and studies have been conducted. Some compounds that have significant inhibitory effects on RORγt activity have been found from numerous compounds. The research on these compounds can further provide more reliable technical support for leading drugs and even candidate drugs of the therapeutic drugs for autoimmune diseases.

     The compound for inhibiting RORγt activity as described above may be used in preparation of a therapeutic formulation for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, in preparation of a formulation that inhibits formation of a Th17 cell, in preparation of a formulation that inhibits the RORγt transcription activity, or in preparation of a formulation that inhibits transcription and expression of IL17A gene and/or IL17F gene. The compounds having the structural formula (A) has a good inhibitory effect on RORγt activity. Specifically, luciferase activity reporter system and Th17 cell differentiation experiments prove that the compound may inhibit the transcription effect of a key transcription factor RORγt for Th7 cell differentiation, and may inhibit the transcription and expression of genes IL17A and IL17F targeted by RORγt. The intracellular expression of IL17A at the protein level is also significantly inhibited as detected by the flow cytometer, indicating that the compound molecule has an obvious inhibitory effect on Th17 cell activity. Therefore, the compound may be used to produce a formulation of corresponding activity inhibitor, and provide a leading structure for the development of therapeutic drugs for autoimmune diseases. 
     The compound for inhibiting RORγt activity, the preparation method therefor and the application thereof of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to specific examples.

       FIG. 20  shows the results of RORγt transcription activity inhibited by compounds 28 and 31. Compound 28 (left): EC50=0.14 μM. Compound 31 (right): EC50=0.85 μM. It can be seen from  FIG. 20  that Compounds 28 and 31 have a significant effect on inhibiting RORγt transcription activity. 
       FIG. 21  shows data of intracellular protein expression of IL-17A inhibited by Compounds 6, 10, 22, 28, and 31. It can be seen from  FIG. 21  that Compounds 6, 10, 22, 28, and 31 have significant inhibitory effects. In the figure, the results of solvent group, 1.56 μM compound group, 3.12 μM compound group, and 6.25 μM compound group are shown from left to right. 
       FIG. 22  shows results of mRNA expression of RORγt (left), IL17A (middle), and IL-17F (right) inhibited by Compounds 6, 10, 22, 28, and 31 in the differentiation induced by Th17 cells in vitro. In the figure, the results of solvent group, 1.56 μM compound group, 3.12 μM compound group, and 6.25 μM compound group are shown from left to right. It can be seen from  FIG. 22  that Compounds 6, 10, 22, 28, and 31 have significant inhibitory effects. 
     In addition, similar experiments were performed on other compounds. Although the results were slightly worse than those of Compounds 6, 10, 22, 28, and 31, significant effects on inhibiting RORγt transcription activity can also be observed as the dosage and concentration increased.
