Inhibitors of AKR1B10 belonging to the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily are considered promising candidates for anti-cancer drugs. AKR1B1, a structurally similar isoform of AKR1B10, is involved in glucose metabolism. Thus, selective inhibition of AKR1B10 is required for the development of anti-cancer drugs. In this study, we first compared correlations between melting temperature and the 50% inhibition concentration obtained from differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) and an enzyme inhibitory experiment, respectively, and a good correlation was found, except for compounds with low solubility. This result indicates that the DSF method is useful for drug screening for the AKR superfamily. We then evaluated their selectivity as inhibitors against all seven major human AKR1 family proteins and found that C18 is most specific for AKR1B10.
