The biological activities of deoxy sugars (deoxy monosaccharides) have remained largely unstudied until recently. We compared the growth inhibition by all 1-deoxyketohexoses using the animal model Caenorhabditis elegans. Among the eight stereoisomers, 1-deoxy-d-allulose (1d-d-Alu) showed particularly strong growth inhibition. The 50% inhibition of growth (GI50) concentration by 1d-d-Alu was estimated to be 5.4 mM, which is approximately 10 times lower than that of d-allulose (52.7 mM), and even lower than that of the potent glycolytic inhibitor, 2-deoxy-d-glucose (19.5 mM), implying that 1d-d-Alu has a strong growth inhibition. In contrast, 5-deoxy- and 6-deoxy-d-allulose showed no growth inhibition of C. elegans. The inhibition by 1d-d-Alu was alleviated by the addition of d-ribose or d-fructose. Our findings suggest that 1d-d-Alu-mediated growth inhibition could be induced by the imbalance in d-ribose metabolism. To our knowledge, this is the first report of biological activity of 1d-d-Alu which may be considered as an antimetabolite drug candidate.
