Docking and molecular dynamics studies toward the binding of new natural phenolic marine inhibitors and aldose reductase.
Phenolic marine natural product is a kind of new potential aldose reductase inhibitors (ARIs). In order to investigate the binding mode and inhibition mechanism, molecular docking and dynamics studies were performed to explore the interactions of six phenolic inhibitors with human aldose reductase (hALR2). Considering physiological environment, all the neutral and other two ionized states of each phenolic inhibitor were adopted in the simulation. The calculations indicate that all the inhibitors are able to form stable hydrogen bonds with the hALR2 active pocket which is mainly constructed by residues TYR48, HIS110 and TRP111, and they impose the inhibition effect by occupying the active space. In all inhibitors, only La and its two ionized derivatives La_ion1 and La_ion2, in which neither of the ortho-hydrogens of 3-hydroxyl is substituted by Br, bind with hALR2 active residues using the terminal 3-hydroxyl. While, all the other inhibitors, at least one of whose ortho-sites of 3- and 6-hydroxyls are substituted by Br substituent which take much electron-withdrawing effect and steric hindrance, bind with hALR2 through the lactone group. This means that the Br substituent can effectively regulate the binding modes of phenolic inhibitors. Although the lactone bound inhibitors have relatively high RMSD values, our dynamics study shows that both binding modes are of high stability. For each inhibitor molecule, the ionization does not change its original binding mode, but it does gradually increase the binding free energy, which reveals that besides hydrogen bonds, the electrostatic effect is also important to the inhibitor-hALR2 interaction.

Phenolic marine natural products as aldose reductase inhibitors.
Four different types of marine natural compounds isolated from tunicates were found to inhibit human aldose reductase. They all are characterized by a heterocyclic system, and at least two phenolic groups are present in the structure. Two of the compounds tested showed an inhibitory potency 5/6-fold higher than that of the known AR inhibitor sorbinil. One notable structural feature of these active compounds is the lack of either the carboxylic acid or the spiro-hydantoin commonly present in the principal classes of currently used inhibitors.

Study of non-covalent enzyme-inhibitor complexes of aldose reductase by electrospray mass spectrometry.
Specific non-covalent interactions between aldose reductase (AR), its NADP+ cofactor and five inhibitors have been characterized by electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS). These results indicated that the protein could be desorbed and maintained in the gas phase in a form very close to its native conformation. Collisionally induced dissociation (CID)-MS and CID-MS-MS showed that the adenosine diphosphate part of the cofactor interacts strongly with AR. The relative stability of the ternary AR x NADP+ x inhibitor complexes was established and successfully correlated with the IC50 values. All inhibitors were shown to only bind to AR holoenzyme. These results are important for the field of drug development insofar as ES-MS might provide a rapid and very sensitive method for the screening of potential drugs or for the identification of compounds displaying high binding affinity to a target biomolecule.

The role of the polyol pathway in diabetes mellitus.
The mechanism by which hyperglycaemia leads to diabetic complications has not been fully elucidated. Non-enzymatic glycosylation leads to considerable functional and structural alteration of proteins. Hyperglycaemia also induces changes in intracellular metabolites, particularly in the polyol pathway. Aldose reductase inhibitors, which block the polyol pathway, have been shown to prevent complications in animal models, and this provides the rationale for the large scale trials that are presently being conducted.

Properties of novel aldose reductase inhibitors, M16209 and M16287, in comparison with known inhibitors, ONO-2235 and sorbinil.
Properties and efficacies of novel aldose reductase (AR) inhibitors, M16209 (1-(3-bromobenzo[b]furan-2-ylsulfonyl)hydantoin) and M16287 (1-(3-chlorobenzo[b]furan-2-ylsulfonyl)hydantoin), were examined in vitro and in vivo, compared with known AR inhibitors, ONO-2235 and sorbinil. These four compounds inhibited partially purified aldose reductases from various origins, and the potencies of M16209 and M16287 were on the whole similar to ONO-2235, and were greater than that of sorbinil. The IC50 values of the four AR inhibitors did not substantially depend on the substrate used. Kinetic studies of inhibition of partially purified bovine lens (BLAR) revealed that M16209, M16287 and sorbinil were uncompetitive with glyceraldehyde and noncompetitive with nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), whereas ONO-2235 was noncompetitive with both glyceraldehyde and NADPH. Aldose reductase became less sensitive to the four inhibitors as enzyme purification progressed, although the susceptibility to inhibition was partially reversed by incubation with dithiothreitol. In addition, the four compounds slightly affected those enzymes of carbohydrate and glutathione metabolism which were tested. M16209 and M16287 prevented sorbitol accumulation in isolated rat tissues as potently as ONO-2235 and sorbinil. M16209 and M16287 were effective in the prevention of galactosemic cataracts and amelioration of diabetic neuropathy with almost the same potency, while ONO-2235 was effective only in neuropathy, and sorbinil was effective in galactosemic cataracts and diabetic neuropathy with a different potency. These results indicate that M16209 and M16287 are potent aldose reductase inhibitors, which could be applicable to treatment for diabetic complications.
