Carnosine Catalyzes the Formation of the Oligo/Polymeric Products of Methylglyoxal
Background/Aims: Reactive dicarbonyl compounds, such as methylglyoxal (MG), contribute to diabetic complications. MG-scavenging capacities of carnosine and anserine, which have been shown to mitigate diabetic nephropathy, were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Methods: MG-induced cell toxicity was cha...
