Human glyoxalase I (GLO I), a rate-limiting enzyme for detoxification of methylglyoxal (MG), a by-product of glycolysis, is known to be a potential therapeutic target for cancer. Here, we searched new scaffolds from natural compounds for designing novel GLO I inhibitors and found trans-stilbene scaffold. We examined the inhibitory abilities to human GLO I of commercially available trans-stilbene compounds. Among them, piceatannol was found to have the most potent inhibitory activity against human GLO I. Piceatannol could inhibit the proliferation of human lung cancer NCI-H522 cells, which are dependent on GLO I for survival, in a dose-and time-dependent manner. In addition, piceatannol more significantly inhibited the proliferation of NCI-H522 cells than that of NCI-H460 cells, which are less dependent on GLO I. Importantly, overexpression of GLO I in NCI-H522 cells resulted in less sensitive to the antiproliferative activity of piceatannol. Taken together, this is the first report demonstrating that piceatannol inhibits GLO I activity and the GLO I-dependent proliferation of cancer cells. Furthermore, we determined a pharmacophore for novel inhibitors of human GLO I by computational simulation analyses of the binding mode of piceatannol to the enzyme hot spot in the active site. We suggest that piceatannol is a possible lead compound for the development of novel GLO I inhibitory anticancer drugs. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
