摘要: Natural Xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitors represent promising therapeutic agents for hyperuricemia (HUA) treatment due to their potent efficacy and favorable safety profiles. This study involved the construction of a comprehensive database of 315 XOD inhibitors and development of 28 machine learning-based QSAR models. The ChemoPy light gradient boosting machine model exhibited the best performance (AUC = 0.9371 and MCC = 0.7423). This model identified three potential XOD inhibitors from the FooDB database: daphnetin, 7-hydroxycoumarin, and piceatannol. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations revealed favorable interactions, with piceatannol showing a remarkable stability through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. ADME predictions suggested that all three compounds possess desirable drug-like properties and safety characteristics. Subsequent in vitro enzyme inhibition assays validated computational predictions, with piceatannol exhibiting the strongest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 8.80 +/- 0.05 mu M). Multispectroscopic analyses revealed that piceatannol-XOD binding was predominantly mediated by hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces, which induced conformational changes characterized by decreased alpha-helical content and increased proportions of beta-sheets, beta-turns, and random coils. This study presents an efficient strategy for the identification of natural XOD inhibitors, elucidates the molecular mechanism of piceatannol-mediated XOD inhibition, and establishes a foundation for its therapeutic application in HUA treatment.
