Advanced glycation end products modulate transcriptional regulation in mesangial cells [PDF]
Advanced glycation end products modulate transcriptional regulation in mesangial cells. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) stimulate synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) in a receptor-mediated manner on mesangial cells.

AGEs in human lens capsule promote the TGFβ2-mediated EMT of lens epithelial cells:Implications for age-associated fibrosis [PDF]
Proteins in basement membrane (BM) are long-lived and accumulate chemical modifications during aging; advanced glycation end-product (AGE) formation is one such modification. The human lens capsule is a BM secreted by lens epithelial cells. In this study,

Targeting RAGE prevents muscle wasting and prolongs survival in cancer cachexia [PDF]
Background: Cachexia, a multifactorial syndrome affecting more than 50% of patients with advanced cancer and responsible for ~20% of cancer-associated deaths, is still a poorly understood process without a standard cure available. Skeletal muscle atrophy
