Vitamin D and advanced glycation end products and their receptors
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are destructive molecules in the body that, at high levels, contribute to the progression of various chronic diseases. Numerous studies have suggested a modifying effect of vitamin D on AGEs and their receptors. This study sought to summarize the effects of vitamin D on AGEs and their receptors, including receptor

Receptor for Advanced-Glycation End Products [PDF]
Background— The beneficial effects of reperfusion therapies have been limited by the amount of ischemic damage that occurs before reperfusion. To enable development of interventions to reduce cell injury, our research has focused on understanding mechanisms involved in cardiac cell death after ...

Elevated hemoglobin glycation index identify non-diabetic individuals at increased risk of kidney dysfunction [PDF]
Hemoglobin glycation index (HGI), calculated as the difference between the observed value of HbA1 and the predicted HbA1c based on plasma glucose concentration, is a measure of the individual tendency toward non-enzymatic hemoglobin glycation which has ...

Association between plasma sRAGE and emphysema according to the genotypes of AGER gene
Background Higher soluble receptor for advanced glycation end product (sRAGE) levels are considered to be associated with severe emphysema. However, the relationship remains uncertain when the advanced glycation end-product specific receptor (AGER) gene ...

Role of galectin-3 in bone cell differentiation, bone pathophysiology and vascular osteogenesis [PDF]
Galectin-3 is expressed in various tissues, including the bone, where it is considered a marker of chondrogenic and osteogenic cell lineages. Galectin-3 protein was found to be increased in the differentiated chondrocytes of the metaphyseal plate ...
