Glycated Lysine Residues: A Marker for Non-Enzymatic Protein Glycation in Age-Related Diseases
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nonenzymatic glycosylation or glycation of macromolecules, especially proteins leading to their oxidation, play an important role in diseases. Glycation of proteins primarily results in the formation of an early stage and stable Amadori-lysine product which undergo further irreversible chemical reactions to form advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). This review focuses these products in lysine rich proteins such as collagen and human serum albumin for their role in aging and age-related diseases. Antigenic characteristics of glycated lysine residues in proteins together with the presence of serum autoantibodies to the glycated lysine products and lysine-rich proteins in diabetes and arthritis patients indicates that these modified lysine residues may be a novel biomarker for protein glycation in aging and age-related diseases.

Influence of Flavonols As in vitro on Low Density Lipoprotein Glycation
The non-enzymatic glycation of Low density lipoprotein (LDL) is a naturally occurring chemical modification of apolipoprotein B as a result of condensation between lysine residues and glucose. Glycated LDL is poorly recognized by LDL receptors and initiates different processes that can be considered proatherogenic. Thus, LDL glycation may contribute in the increased atherosclerotic risk of pati...

Introduction: Non-enzymatic glycation of proteins has been implicated in various diabetic complications and age-related disorders. Proteins undergo glycation at the N-terminus or at the O-amino group of lysine residues. The observation that only a fraction of all lysine residues undergo glycation indicates the role of the immediate chemical environment in the glycation reaction. Here we have co...

متن کاملStrategies for proteomic analysis of blood glycated proteins
of proteins, non-enzymatic glycation is one of the less frequently studied in proteomics. Glycated proteins are formed by a non-enzymatic reaction between reducing carbohydrates (e.g., glucose, fructose, ribose or derivatives such as ascorbic acid) with amino groups located in N-terminal position or in lysine and arginine residues (Figure 1) [1]. Analytical guidelines required to succeed in the...
