Amino Acids |
Organic compounds that generally contain an amino (-NH2) and a carboxyl (-COOH) group. Twenty alpha-amino acids are the subunits which are polymerized to form proteins. |

Animals |
Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. |

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. |

Glycation End Products, Advanced |
A heterogeneous group of compounds derived from rearrangements, oxidation, and cross-linking reactions that follow from non-enzymatic glycation of amino groups in PROTEINS; LIPIDS; or NUCLEIC ACIDS. Their accumulation in vivo accelerates under hyperglycemic, oxidative, or inflammatory conditions. Heat also accelerates the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) such seen with the browning of food during cooking. |
