Aldose Reductase in The Retina
Aldose reductase (E.C. 1.1.1.21), an intracellular enzyme of polyol pathway, catalyzes NADPHdependent reduction of glucose to sorbitol. Under normoglycemia, most of the cellular glucose is phosphorylated into glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase. A minor part of non-phosphorylated glucose enters the polyol pathway, the alternate route of glucose metabolism. However, under hyperglycemia, because of...
متن کاملImmunodetection of aldose reductase in normal and diseased human liver.
Aldose reductase is an NADPH-dependent aldo-keto reductase best known as the rate-limiting enzyme of the polyol pathway that is implicated in the complications of diabetes. Aldose reductase appears to be involved in a variety of disease states other than diabetes, presumably due to its ability to catalyze the reduction of a broad spectrum of aldehydes, including some cytotoxic products of lipid...
متن کاملQuantitative Structure Activity Relationship Analysis of Benzimidazole Derivatives as Aldose Reductase Inhibitors
Hyperglycemia is involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, and macro-vascular disease via multiple mechanisms, of which increased aldose reductase activity. Aldose reductase inhibitors, when administered from the onset of hyperglycemia, prevent the progression of polyol accumulation–linked complication. In this work, we report quantitative structure activity...

متن کاملHuman aldose reductase and human small intestine aldose reductase are efficient retinal reductases: consequences for retinoid metabolism.
Aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) are NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases that catalyse the reduction of a variety of carbonyl compounds, such as carbohydrates, aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes and steroids. We have studied the retinal reductase activity of human aldose reductase (AR), human small-intestine (HSI) AR and pig aldehyde reductase. Human AR and HSI AR were very efficient in the reduction of...
