Non-inhibitory effects of the potent antioxidant C-phycocyanin from Plectonema sp. on the in vitro glycation reaction
When glucose and Amadori products are auto-oxidized, glycation occurs, resulting in the formation of early (Amadori) and late advanced glycation end products (AGEs), as well as free radicals. Glycation and an increase in free radical activity induce diabetic complications. Antioxidant and antiglycat...
