Cysteinylprolyl ester-mediated drug release from a lipid–drug conjugate
For small-molecule drugs, lipidation via a cleavable linkage can extend half-life in circulation through interaction with albumin. Here we modified the cysteinylprolyl ester (CPE) system used in peptide thioester synthesis, which normally requires basic conditions, for use as an self-immolative linker and release device for a lipid-gemcitabine conjugate. To improve release under physiological conditions for medical application, a methyl group at the α-position of cysteine on the CPE unit was incorporated in anticipation of the Thorpe-Ingold effect. As a result, Ac-Gly-(α-Me)Cys(SH)-Pro-gemcitabine 11 drastically promoted the release of gemcitabine in comparison with Ac-Gly-Cys(SH)-Pro-gemcitabine 10. Furthermore, in the presence of bovine serum albumin and/or 2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid, the gentle and continuous release of gemcitabine from the lipid–gemcitabine conjugate 16 was achieved. In addition to gemcitabine, this method could allow high clearance drugs, including nucleic acid and prostacyclin derivatives, to maintain their biological activity long enough to become effective.
