Background: Aldo-keto Reductase 1B10/AKR1B10

Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10), also known as ARL-1 or aldose reductase related protein, is a cytosolic, NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase that reduces variety of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, dicarbonyl compounds, and some drug ketones (1). It is related to AKR1B1 in amino acid sequence and tertiary structure. However, its substrate specificity differs from AKR1B1 in its inability to reduce sugars and prostaglandin H2, and in its high catalytic efficiency for retinals, isoprenyl aldehydes, and cytotoxic aldehydes (2). It is primarily observed in the human colon, small intestine, and adrenal gland, with a low level in liver. Its up‑regulated expression is detected in hepatocellular carcinoma, cervical cancer, lung squamous cell carcinoma, and lung adenocarcinoma in smokers (3). Thus, it is considered as a potential diagnostic and/or prognostic marker in carcinomas and serum. The functional studies of this enzyme suggest that the up‑regulation of AKR1B10 is related to cell survival by reducing chemo-agents or metabolites in cells to less toxic reduced forms (4). Its inhibition may be a potential target for reducing the progression of cancers (5).
