Description

Small molecular compound for inhibiting ASCT2, derivative thereof and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ASCT2 targeted inhibitors, in particular to a small molecular compound for inhibiting ASCT2, a derivative thereof and application thereof.
Background
Na + The dependent glutamine vector 2 (alanine-ser-ine-cysteine transporter, ASCT 2) is Na encoded by the SLC1A5 gene + The dependent transporter, which is a neutral amino acid transporter, glutamine is required to perform its biological function, first to enter the cell via ASCT 2. ASCT2 is mainly distributed on cell membranes, mediates the transportation of neutral amino acids such as glutamine, alanine, serine, cysteine and the like, and provides an important substrate for rapidly growing tumor cells. The increase in glutamine decomposition in cancer cells is related to the increase in expression of membrane transporter protein mediating glutamine cell uptake, and compared with normal tissue, ASCT2 is highly expressed in tumor tissue such as non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer and liver cancer, and the demand of cancer cells for glutamine is greatly increased to support metabolic demand, and ATP and macromolecular substances such as synthetic proteins, nucleic acids and the like are produced. Inhibition of ASCT2 protein expression, prevention of intracellular glutamine uptake is a new tumor treatment modality and has been demonstrated to be effective on melanoma tumor cells, prostate cancer, breast cancer and acute myelogenous leukemia. At present, the research on ASCT2 functions is focused on the aspect of tumor proliferation, and the research discovers that inhibiting ASCT2 in prostate cancer, breast cancer cells and melanoma can reduce glutamine uptake, activate mTorrC 1 channels, inhibit cell growth and cell cycle processes, and therefore inhibit proliferation of tumor cells.
Because ASCT2 can be expressed abnormally or excessively in tumor tissues such as non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer and the like. Meanwhile, the literature reports that ASCT2 is closely related to the survival time of clinical patients, so that the ASCT2 is considered to be a potential anti-tumor metabolic target. The first ASCT2 inhibitor developed was GPNA, a structural analogue of glutamine, which inhibits sodium-dependent amino acid transporters including ASCT 2. Because of the high levels of drug concentration required to inhibit ASCT2 transport function, they are currently only used as tool drugs in the field of tumor-based research. V-9302 is the first powerful small molecule inhibitor aiming at the glutamine transporter ASCT2, inhibits ASCT2 transport function mainly by combining with an ASCT2 allosteric region, finally generates good anti-tumor proliferation effect, and V-9302 can obviously inhibit proliferation of colon cancer cells, increase oxidative stress injury and promote death of tumor cells. This study opens the way to the development of inhibitors targeting ASCT2, targeted therapies for glutamine metabolism. However, it has been experimentally confirmed that V-9302 is not an ASCT2 specific inhibitor, and its target is not a single ASCT2 transporter, but acts on other transporters LAT1, etc.
