Source:
Type:
GLO-I, or glyoxalase I, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the detoxification of reactive carbonyl species, particularly methylglyoxal, which is a byproduct of various metabolic processes.
-Glyoxalase-I (Glo-I) and glyoxalase-II (Glo-II) comprise the glyoxalase system and are responsible for the detoxification of methylglyoxal (MGO). MGO is formed non-enzymatically as a by-product, mainly in glycolysis, and leads to the formation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs).
-Elevated levels of GLO-I in cancer cells can help them cope with these toxic byproducts, promoting cell survival and proliferation.
-High levels of GLO-I may be associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in certain types of cancer.
-Inhibiting GLO-I could sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapy and other treatments by increasing their vulnerability to oxidative stress.
-Many studies have reported that GLO-I is overexpressed in several types of cancers, including breast, lung, prostate, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. This overexpression is often associated with aggressive tumor behavior and poor prognosis.
Inhibitors: – Several flavonoids such as quercetin, luteolin, and fisetin have been shown to inhibit glyoxalase I activity in enzyme assays. - Curcumin. - Resveratrol - EGCG
