Abstract Glycolysis is drastically increased in tumors and it is the main route to energy production with a minor use of oxidative phosphorylation. Among the key enzymes in the glycolytic process, LDH is emerging as one of the most interesting targets for the development of new inhibitors. In this context, in the present work, we carried out a virtual screening procedure followed by chemical modifications of the identified structures according to a "hit-to-lead" process. The effects of the new molecules were preliminary probed against purified human LDH-A. The compounds active at low micromolar level were additionally characterized for their activity on some cellular metabolic processes by using Raji human cell line. Within the series, 1 was considered the best candidate, and a more detailed characterization of its biological properties was performed. In Raji cells exposed to compound 1 we evidenced the occurrence of effects usually observed in cancer cells after LDH-A inhibition: reduced lactate production and NAD/NADH ratio, apoptosis. The flow cytometry analysis of treated cells also showed cell cycle changes compatible with effects exerted at the glycolytic level. Finally, in agreement with the data obtained with other inhibitors or by silencing LDH-A expression, compound 1 was found to increase Raji cells response to some commonly used chemotherapeutic agents. Taken together, all these finding are in support of the LDH-A inhibiting activity of compound 1.
