A New Perspective on Therapeutic Inhibition of Advanced Glycation in Diabetic Microvascular Complications: Common Downstream Endpoints Achieved Through Disparate Therapeutic Approaches
American Journal of Nephrology, 06/30/09
Sourris KC et al. - A commonality among the chemically disparate compounds that inhibit the formation and accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) or their signalling pathways is their end organ protection in experimental models of diabetes complications. Although this group of therapeutics are structurally and functionally distinct with numerous mechanisms of action, the most important factor governing their therapeutic capability is clearly their ability to alleviate the tissue burden of advanced glycation, rather than the biochemical mechanism by which this is achieved.
