Dietary Advanced Glycation End Products and Aging
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a heterogeneous, complex group of compounds that are formed when reducing sugar reacts in a non-enzymatic way with amino acids in proteins and other macromolecules. This occurs both exogenously (in food) and endogenously (in humans) with greater concentrations found in older adults. While higher AGEs occur in both healthy older adults and those with ch...
متن کاملAdvanced glycation end products
Aging is the progressive accumulation of damage to an organism over time leading to disease and death. Aging research has been very intensive in the last years aiming at characterizing the pathophysiology of aging and finding possibilities to fight age-related diseases. Various theories of aging have been proposed. In the last years advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have received particula...
متن کاملAdvanced glycation end products in age-related macular degeneration.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the localization of N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), a component and major immunologic epitope of advanced glycation end products, in aged eyes and choroidal neovascular membranes (CNVMs) surgically excised from eyes with age-related macular degeneration. METHODS Immunohistochemistry for CML was performed using 8 snap-frozen, surgically excised CNVMs. Twelve eye...
متن کاملRole of advanced glycation end products in cardiovascular disease.
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are produced through the non enzymatic glycation and oxidation of proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. Enhanced formation of AGEs occurs particularly in conditions associated with hyperglycaemia such as diabetes mellitus (DM). AGEs are believed to have a key role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease in patients with DM through the mo...
متن کاملAdvanced glycation end products, soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products, and risk of colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGE) accumulate in human tissue proteins during aging, particularly under hyperglycemia conditions. AGEs induce oxidative stress and inflammation via the receptor for AGEs (RAGE) and soluble RAGE (sRAGE) can neutralize the effects mediated by RAGE-ligand engagement. METHODS We examined the association between N(ε)-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), a prom...
