摘要:
The invention relates to compounds and methods for inhibiting production and function of 3-deoxyglucosone and other alpha-dicarbonyl sugars in skin, by way of fructosamine-3-kinase inhibition, thereby treating or prevention various diseases, disorders or conditions. Additionally, the invention relates to treatment of various diseases, disorders or conditions associated with or mediated by oxidative stress since 3DG induces ROS and AGEs, which are associated with the inflammatory response caused by oxidative stress.
摘要:
Disclosed is a class of compounds which inhibit the enzymatic conversion of fructose-lysine into fructose-lysine-3-phosphate in an ATP dependent reaction in a newly discovered metabolic pathway. According to the normal functioning on this pathway, fructose-lysine-3-phosphate (FL3P) is broken down to form free lysine, inorganic phosphate and 3-deoxyglucosone (3DG), the latter being a reactive protein modifying agent. 3DG can be detoxified by reduction to 3-deoxyfructose (3DF), or it can react with endogenous proteins to form advanced glycation end-product modified proteins (AGE-proteins). Also disclosed are therapeutic methods of using such inhibitors to alleviate deleterious effects of 3DG.
摘要:
The invention relates to the discovery that 3-deoxyglucosone (3DG) and other alpha-dicarbonyl sugars associated diseases and disorders are present and produced in the skin. Further, the invention relates to the discovery that amadorase, an enzyme that mediates 3DG synthesis, is also present in the skin. Thus, the invention further relates to methods of inhibiting production and function of 3-deoxyglucosone and other alpha-dicarbonyl sugars in skin thereby treating or prevention various diseases, disorders or conditions. Additionally, the invention relates to treatment of various diseases, disorders or conditions associated with or mediated by oxidative stress since 3DG induces ROS and AGEs, which are associated with the inflammatory response caused by oxidative stress.

摘要:
Concentrations of one or more carbohydrates phosphorylated at a secondary hydroxyl, including fructose-3-phosphate and sorbitol-3-phosphate, in biological tissue or cells of diabetic patients are determined by .sup.31 P NMR Spectroscopy, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) or other appropriate analytical techniques. Elevated levels of such phosphorylated carbohydrates, relative to a prescribed standard or threshold level, are associated with an increased risk for developing the degenerative complications of diabetes. A method is provided for determining the relative concentrations of such phosphorylated carbohydrates, whereby the relative risk of a patient for the development of diabetic complications and the efficacy of therapeutic intervention in prevention of such complications may be assessed.
