AGEs and their interaction with AGE-receptors in vascular disease and diabetes mellitus. I. The AGE concept

Bierhaus, A·1998·Cardiovascular Research

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: This is the first part of a bipartite review that summarizes the rising knowledge on the molecular mechanisms underlying the action of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) and their contribution to diabetic complications and vascular disease. While the first part presented here focusses on AGE formation, the second part will describe the AGE-protein/receptor interactions and their role in mediating AGE-dependent intracellular signalling. RESULTS: Nonenzymatic glycation, in which reducing sugars are covalently attached to free amino groups and ultimately form AGEs, has been found to occur during normal aging and at accelerated rate in diabetes mellitus. Oxidation, accompanying glycation in vivo, further supports chemical modifications. AGE formation and protein crosslinking are irreversible processes that alter the structural and functional properties of proteins, lipid components and nucleic acids. AGE modifications do not only change the physicochemical properties of the afflicted molecules, but also induce cellular signalling, activation of transcription factors and subsequent gene expression in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS: AGEs elicit a wide range of cell-mediated responses that might contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, vascular and renal disease and Alzheimer's disease. Substances that inhibit AGE formation, reduce oxidative stress or destroy already formed crosslinks may limit the progression of disease and may offer new tools for therapeutic interventions in the therapy of AGEs mediated disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
