"Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) induces alterations in the intracellular redox balance, leading cells to functional injury. Current literature reports that intracellular signaling triggered by the interaction of AGEs with their specific receptors RAGEs depends on the cell type and the state of activation/stress.
"In this work, NT2 human neurons were exposed for 48 h to glycated fetal serum containing 750-3000 pmol/ml pentosidine; the treatment induced an increase in apoptosis rate linear with...
