Descripción general

Prepared by reacting BSA with glycoaldehyde under sterile conditions. Glycated-BSA shows a 5,000 - 10,000% increase in fluorescence as compared to normal BSA (confirmed by fluorescence spectrophotometry, excitation/emission 370/440 nm). AGE-BSA has been reported to induce apoptosis in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells and inhibit nitric oxide synthase activity in proximal tubular epithelial cells. Advanced glycation end products and their receptors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes, induction of proinflammatory cytokines, and stimulation of smooth muscle proliferation, and fibronectin production.
Prepared by reacting bovine serum albumin (BSA) with glycoaldehyde under sterile conditions. Fluorescence of AGE-BSA is confirmed by fluorescence spectrophotometry, excitation/emission = 370/440 nm. Glycated BSA shows a 5000-10,000% increase in fluorescence compared to control BSA. AGE and their receptors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes, induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and stimulation of smooth muscle proliferation and fibronectin production. AGE-BSA has also been shown to induce apoptosis in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and inhibit nitric oxide synthase activity in proximal tubular epithelial cells of the kidney.

  1. Hello, I am working on detecting and eventually reducing Oxidative stress in diabetes in vitro. I am using SHSY5Y and RT4 D6P2T cells. Can I use this product to immitate the diabetic condition (presence of AGE) ideally leading to oxidative stress?

    1 respuesta
    1. While cell culture use is not part of the validation process for the AGE-BSA, independent laboratories have used the AGE-BSA to induce hypoxic stress. The following references may be useful:

  2. What compounds are present in this product 121800-M (AGE-BSA)? It is a mixture of different AGEs? In paper, DOI: 10.1038/srep27848 it is provided that it is a `mix of Nε -(carboxymethyl)-lysine,pentosidine, and others`. Could you please clarify this?

    1 respuesta
    1. This product is prepared by reacting bovine serum albumin with glycoaldehyde, resulting in a glycated BSA with a 5,000–10,000% increase in fluorescence (excitation/emission = 370/440 nm) compared to control BSA, as confirmed by fluorescence spectrophotometry. The range of modifications is not determined using mass spectrometry. End products or impurities have not been further characterized.

  5. If the diluted AGE-RAGE is prepared a year ago and was stored in -60 degree, can it still be used?

    1 respuesta
    1. Unfortunately, the solution stability has not been determined. However, other sources state that following reconstitution, this chemical is stable at -20 to -70 °C for only 3 months.
