Protein denaturation occurs at sites of inflammation. We hypothesized that denatured protein may provide a more susceptible target for glycation, which is a known mediator of inflammation. We examined the effects of thermal denaturation on the suscep

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (Glyc3P), a glycolytic intermediate, non-enzymatically glycosy-lated (or glycated) and inhibited the pig heart cytoplasmic aspartate aminotransferase (cAAT). Glyc3P (5.0 mM) decreased cAAT activity by 47% after 1 min at 23

The physiological and biochemical demands on contracting muscle make this tissue particularly susceptible to molecular and cellular damage. We looked at membrane structures in cardiac and skeletal muscle and in erythrocytes for exercise-induced lipid

Acrolein-modified proteins are markers of disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Acrolein (H2C=HC-CH=O), which can be produced by the oxidative properties of amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide, localizes to areas immediately surrounding early Abeta ag

Protein glycation, which promotes aggregation, involves the unwanted reaction of carbohydrate oxidation products with proteins. Glycation of lens alpha-crystallin occurs in vivo and may contribute to cataractogenesis. Anti-glycation compounds such as

Carnosine, a histidine-containing dipeptide, is a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease. There is evidence that carnosine prevents oxidation and glycation, both of which contribute to the crosslinking of proteins; and protein crosslinking promo

Glycation alters protein structure and decreases biological activity. Glycated proteins, which accumulate in affected tissue, are reliable markers of disease. Carnosine, which prevents glycation, may also play a role in the disposal of glycated prote

Acrolein is a reactive lipid peroxidation byproduct, which is found in ischemic tissue. We examined the effects of acrolein on cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase (cAAT), which is an enzyme that was previously shown to be inhibited by glycating agen
