Since pyridoxamine, which traps intermediates in the Maillard reaction and lipid peroxidation reaction, significantly inhibits the development of retinopathy and neuropathy in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat, treatment with advanced glycation end product inhibitors and antioxidants may be a potential strategy for the prevention of clinical diabetic complications. However, the paradoxical effect of green tea has been reported; although plasma hydroperoxide levels were ameliorated, the level of N epsilon-(carboxyethyl)lysine (CML) in tendon and plasma was increased by the oral administration of green tea to diabetic rats. In the present study, we measured the effect of natural compounds on CML formation by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A significant amount of CML was observed when bovine serum albumin was incubated with ribose for 7 days. Under the same conditions, natural compounds, such as desgalactotigonin, showed inhibitory effects, whereas quercetin and acteoside enhanced CML formation, indicating that natural compounds contain both inhibitors and enhancers for CML formation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008239 Lysine An essential amino acid. It is often added to animal feed. Enisyl,L-Lysine,Lysine Acetate,Lysine Hydrochloride,Acetate, Lysine,L Lysine
D009828 Oleanolic Acid A pentacyclic triterpene that occurs widely in many PLANTS as the free acid or the aglycone for many SAPONINS. It is biosynthesized from lupane. It can rearrange to the isomer, ursolic acid, or be oxidized to taraxasterol and amyrin. Oleanol,Hederins,Oleanane Triterpenes,Triterpenes, Oleanane
D010636 Phenols Benzene derivatives that include one or more hydroxyl groups attached to the ring structure.
D011794 Quercetin A flavonol widely distributed in plants. It is an antioxidant, like many other phenolic heterocyclic compounds. Glycosylated forms include RUTIN and quercetrin. 3,3',4',5,7-Pentahydroxyflavone,Dikvertin
D005960 Glucosides A GLYCOSIDE that is derived from GLUCOSE. Glucoside
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D014315 Triterpenes A class of terpenes (the general formula C30H48) formed by the condensation of six isoprene units, equivalent to three terpene units. Triterpene,Triterpenoid,Triterpenoids
D015227 Lipid Peroxidation Peroxidase catalyzed oxidation of lipids using hydrogen peroxide as an electron acceptor. Lipid Peroxidations,Peroxidation, Lipid,Peroxidations, Lipid
D015416 Maillard Reaction A group of nonenzymatic reactions in which ALDEHYDES; KETONES; or reducing sugars react with the amino groups of AMINO ACIDS; PEPTIDES; PROTEINS; LIPIDS; or NUCLEIC ACIDS.The reaction with reducing sugars (glycation) results in formation of Schiff bases which undergo Amadori rearrangement and other reactions that result in the irreversible formation of ADVANCED GLYCATION END PRODUCTS (AGEs). Food browning, such as occurs when cooking with high heat (grilling, frying, roasting, etc.) is attributed to the Maillard reaction. Non-enzymatic glycation and subsequent formation of AGEs also occurs in vivo and is accelerated under hyperglycemic and inflammatory conditions, and OXIDATIVE STRESS. Browning Reaction,Food Browning,Fructation,Glucation,Glycation,Lipid Glycation,Non-Enzymatic Glycation,Non-Enzymatic Glycosylation,Nonenzymatic Protein Glycation,Protein Glycation,Ribation,Browning Reactions,Browning, Food,Glycation, Lipid,Glycation, Non-Enzymatic,Glycation, Protein,Glycosylation, Non-Enzymatic,Non Enzymatic Glycation,Non Enzymatic Glycosylation,Protein Glycation, Nonenzymatic,Reaction, Browning,Reaction, Maillard,Reactions, Browning
