Inhibition of aldose reductase by maesanin and related p-benzoquinone derivatives and effects on other enzymes.
A naturally occurring p-benzoquinone derivative, maesanin, inhibited porcine lens aldose reductase. Systematic investigation of related p-benzoquinone derivatives revealed that 2,5-dihydroxy-p-benzoquinone was a potent inhibitor of aldose reductase and aldehyde reductase but had no effect on NADH oxidase. Kinetic analysis showed this p-benzoquinone exhibited uncompetitive inhibition against DL-glyceraldehyde and noncompetitive inhibition against NADPH.
