Abstract

Water-soluble and urea-soluble protein fractions from control and streptozotocin-diabetic rats were analyzed for AGEs with a CML-specific monoclonal anti-AGE antibody and a polyclonal anti-AGE antibody. AGEs, CML in particular, were significantly increased in the diabetic rats whereas aminoguandine treatment resulted in significant decrease in AGEs. The data also confirm that CML, a glycoxidation product, is a major epitope of AGE structures in lenses.
