Glycation of Human Serum Albumin in Diabetes: Impacts on the Structure and Function
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2014Diabetes mellitus is one of the most serious diseases in the world. The levels of glycated proteins in the blood of diabetics are higher than that of non-diabetic subjects. The glycation of proteins is believed to link to the occurrence of diabetic complications and related diseases.

In vitro glycation of human serum albumin by dihydroxyacetone and dihydroxyacetone phosphate
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2012Amino groups in proteins can non-enzymatically react with reducing sugars to generate a structurally diverse group of compounds referred to as advanced glycation end products (AGEs). The in vivo formation of AGEs contributes to some of the complications of diabetes including atherosclerosis, cataract formation, and renal failure.

Characterization of the Glycation of Albumin in Freeze-Dried and Frozen Human Serum
Analytical Chemistry, 1997Human serum albumin (HSA) in fresh frozen and freeze-dried serum reference materials was examined by mass spectrometry and a variety of affinity chromatography techniques. The relative molecular mass distribution of HSA in fresh frozen serum was found to be identical to that of an HSA standard.

Biochemical, biophysical, and thermodynamic analysis of in vitro glycated human serum albumin
Biochemistry (Moscow), 2007Glycated human serum albumin (HSA) is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases, and we have therefore investigated possible alterations in HSA on glycation. HSA was incubated for 5 and 20 weeks independently with constant glucose concentration at 37 degrees C under aerobic conditions. Biochemical, spectral, electrophoretic, circular

Multispectroscopic studies of the interaction of folic acid with glycated human serum albumin
Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2018The interaction between glycated human serum albumin (gHSA) and folic acid (FA) was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques, such as fluorescence, circular dichroism, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and electrophoretic light scattering technique. These methods characterize the binding properties of an albumin-folic acid system.

Effect of glycation on human serum albumin–zinc interaction: a biophysical study
JBIC Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2018Zinc deficiency is common in diabetes. However, the cause of this phenomenon is largely unknown. 80% of the absorbed zinc is transported through the blood in association with human serum albumin (HSA). Under persistent hyperglycemia, HSA frequently undergoes non-enzymatic glycation which can affect its structure and metal-binding function.

Detergency effects of nanofibrillar amyloid formation on glycation of human serum albumin
Carbohydrate Research, 2008The prolonged glycation of human serum albumin (HSA) results in significant changes in its structure. The identity of these structural changes and the influence of carbohydrates on these changes require further study. Here, we evaluated structural changes and amyloid formation of HSA upon incubation with Glc, Fru, or Rib. Fluorescence spectrophotometry,

The effect of full glycation on structure and function of human serum albumin
Journal of Biomolecular Structure and DynamicsHuman serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein carrier found in blood. The level of glycated human serum albumin (GHSA) can be used as a diabetes biomarker. Therefore, many attempts have been made to design selective GHSA detection methods. GHSA has been found to show unique characteristics.

Identification and relative quantification of specific glycation sites in human serum albumin
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2010Glycation (or non-enzymatic glycosylation) is a common non-enzymatic covalent modification of human proteins. Glucose, the highest concentrated monosaccharide in blood, can reversibly react with amino groups of proteins to form Schiff bases that can rearrange to form relatively stable Amadori products.
