为了克服顺铂类药物的毒性大和选择性差问题, 本研究以5,7-二碘-8-羟基喹啉(IQ-OH)铂(II)配合物[Pt(IQ- O)(DMSO)Cl] (PtIQ)为中间体, 以2-(1H-咪唑并[4,5-f][1,10]菲咯啉-2-基)喹啉-8-醇(Py)为辅助配体, 合成新型的8-羟基喹啉修饰的铂(II)多吡啶配合物[Pt(IQ-O)(Py)]Cl (PyPt). 通过核磁共振(NMR)、紫外-可见分光光度法(UV-vis)、红外光谱(IR)和元素分析手段对配合物PyPtPtIQ进行了结构表征. 密度泛函理论计算显示, PyPtPtIQ的最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)与最低未占据分子轨道(LUMO)之间的能隙分别为2.3和3.2 eV, 说明PyPtPtIQ的抗癌活性存在差异. 相对于人肺癌细胞(A549)和人肺癌顺铂耐药细胞(A549/DDP), PyPt对人乳腺癌细胞(MDA-MB-231)表现出更好的抑制作用, 其IC50值为(0.05±0.04) μmol/L, 优于cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)2] (>50.0 μmol/L)、PtIQ [(9.0±0.1) μmol/L]、IQ-OH (>50.0 μmol/L)、Py (>50.0 μmol/L)和临床药物顺铂[(11.1±0.3) μmol/L]; 此外, PyPt对正常肝细胞(HL-7702)的毒性很小, 说明PyPt对MDA-MB-231癌细胞具有更好的选择性. 流式细胞术和显微镜成像显示, PyPt能明显诱导细胞凋亡[ca. (48.0±0.9)%]和衰老[积分光密度(IOD)值=(1.9±0.1)×106], 优于PtIQ [凋亡率=(44.2±0.6)%, 衰老IOD值= (1.8±0.1)×106]和空白对照组[凋亡率=(6.1±0.6)%, 衰老IOD值=(2.1±0.1)×105]. 分子对接结果表明, PyPt与端粒酶逆转录酶(hTERT)中DNA链间的结合能为–53.0 kJ/mol, 明显强于PtIQ (–30.2 kJ/mol). 彗星电泳实验、免疫荧光实验、实时荧光定量PCR(RT-qPCR)和蛋白质印迹(western blotting)实验结果显示, PyPt通过抑制hTERT表达、激活caspase3/7蛋白和引起DNA损伤来诱导MDA-MB-231癌细胞凋亡和衰老, 其诱导能力强于PtIQ. 体内实验显示, PyPt对MDA-MB-231实体瘤有很好的抑制效果, 抑制率为44.4%, 且未对小鼠的存活率(n=6)和体重造成影响. 总之, 本工作开发了一种以DNA和hTERT为靶点的新型8-羟基喹啉修饰铂(II)多吡啶抗癌金属药物.

To overcome the problems of high toxicity and poor selectivity of cisplatin-based drugs, a novel 8-hydroxyquinoline-modified platinum(II) polypyridine complex, [Pt(IQ-O)(Py)]Cl (PyPt), was synthesized using 5,7-diiodo-8-hydroxyquinoline platinum(II) complex [Pt(IQ-O)(DMSO)Cl] (PtIQ) as an intermediate and 2-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)quinolin-8-ol (Py) as an auxiliary ligand. The structures of PyPt and PtIQ were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and elemental analysis. Density functional theory calculations showed that the energy gaps between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of PyPt and PtIQ were 2.3 eV and 3.2 eV, respectively, indicating that there were differences in the anticancer activities of PyPt and PtIQ. Comparing with human lung cancer cells (A549) and human lung cancer cisplatin-resistant cells (A549/DDP), PyPt exhibited better inhibitory effects on human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231), with an IC50 value of (0.05±0.04) μmol/L, which was superior to cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)2] (>50.0 μmol/L), PtIQ [(9.0±0.1) μmol/L], IQ-OH (>50.0 μmol/L), Py (>50.0 μmol/L) and the clinical drug cisplatin [(11.1±0.3) μmol/L]. Additionally, PyPt had little toxicity to normal liver cells (HL-7702), indicating that PyPt had better selectivity for MDA-MB-231 cancer cells. Flow cytometry and microscopic imaging showed that PyPt could significantly induce apoptosis [ca. (48.0±0.9)%] and senescence [IOD value=(1.9±0.1)×106] in cells, which was superior to PtIQ [apoptosis rate=(44.2±0.6)%, senescence IOD value=(1.8±0.1)×106] and the blank control group (apoptosis rate=(6.1±0.6)%, senescence IOD value=(2.1±0.1)×105). Molecular docking results indicated that the binding energy of PyPt with the DNA strand in telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) was –53.0 kJ/mol, which was significantly stronger than that of PtIQ (–30.2 kJ/mol). Comet assay, immunofluorescence assay, real time-PCR detection (RT-qPCR) and western blotting experiments showed that PyPt induced apoptosis and senescence in MDA-MB-231 cancer cells by inhibiting hTERT expression, activating caspase3/7 proteins and inducing DNA damage, and its induction ability was stronger than that of PtIQ. In vivo experiments showed that PyPt had a good inhibitory effect on MDA-MB-231 solid tumors with an inhibition rate of 44.4%, and did not affect the survival rate (n=6) and body weight of mice. In conclusion, a novel 8-hydroxyquinoline-modified platinum(II) polypyridine anticancer metal drug targeting DNA and hTERT was developed.
