Protein fructosylation: fructose and the Maillard reaction
Abstract
Fructose, as is the case for other reducing sugars, undergoes the Maillard reaction with proteins and amino acids. The first stage of the reaction results in one or more substituted amino sugars. These products in turn enter the advanced and final stages of the Maillard reaction, which involve the formation of reactive intermediates, cross-linking of proteins, and the formation of brown and fluorescent polymeric materials. It would appear that the initial stages of the reaction occur more rapidly with fructose than with glucose. The Maillard reaction with any sugar, including fructose, results in a decrease in protein quality due to the loss of amino acid residues and decreased protein digestibility. Maillard products can inhibit the uptake and metabolism of free amino acids and of other nutrients such as zinc and some advanced Maillard products have mutagenic and/or anticarcinogenic properties. In vivo the Maillard reactions between proteins and fructose, glucose, and other reducing sugars may play a role in aging and in some of the clinical complications of diabetes.

“Reactive oxygen species are produced by the Maillard reaction [20], [21], damaging pancreatic beta cells, and leading to a subcellular stress response (the “unfolded protein response” in the endoplasmic reticulum) that drives insulin inadequacy [22], [23].”

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.
