Tumor suppressor PTEN was aberrant silenced in gastric cancer (GC) in our previous study. Activation of PTEN through DNA demethylation is a potential strategy for the treatment of GC. Procyanidin B2 (PB2), an effective DNMT inhibitor, exert positive effects on various diseases. In our work, PB2 suppressed cell proliferation and migration while inducing cell apoptosisin vitro, and inhibited tumorigenesis and developmentin vivo. PB2 hypomethylated and reactivated PTEN expression via targeting and combining with DNMTs. Targeted glucose metabolism and Seahorse analysis showed that PTEN inhibited cell proliferation via HK1-mediated G6P and PFK1-mediated F1,6-2P, and the tumor-suppressor role of PTEN was not dependent on its phosphatase activity. Furthermore, PTEN promoter methylation could be used as a potential marker to predict GC development. This work aimed to investigate whether PB2 inhibit GC by reactivating PTEN’s tumor suppressor function, providing a powerful tool in the development of medical and editable natural compounds.
