Crit Rev Toxicol 2024; 54:485-617. [PMID: 39150724 DOI: 10.1080/10408444.2024.2362985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
The term "glycation compounds" comprises a wide range of structurally diverse compounds that are formed endogenously and in food via the Maillard reaction, a chemical reaction between reducing sugars and amino acids. Glycation compounds produced endogenously are considered to contribute to a range of diseases. This has led to the hypothesis that glycation compounds present in food may also cause adverse effects and thus pose a nutritional risk to human health. In this work, the Senate Commission on Food Safety (SKLM) of the German Research Foundation (DFG) summarized data on formation, occurrence, exposure and toxicity of glycation compounds (Part A) and systematically assessed potential associations between dietary intake of defined glycation compounds and disease, including allergy, diabetes, cardiovascular and renal disease, gut/gastrotoxicity, brain/cognitive impairment and cancer (Part B). A systematic search in Pubmed (Medline), Scopus and Web of Science using a combination of keywords defining individual glycation compounds and relevant disease patterns linked to the subject area of food, nutrition and diet retrieved 253 original publications relevant to the research question. Of these, only 192 were found to comply with previously defined quality criteria and were thus considered suitable to assess potential health risks of dietary glycation compounds. For each adverse health effect considered in this assessment, however, only limited numbers of human, animal and in vitro studies were identified. While studies in humans were often limited due to small cohort size, short study duration, and confounders, experimental studies in animals that allow for controlled exposure to individual glycation compounds provided some evidence for impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, cardiovascular effects and renal injury in response to oral exposure to dicarbonyl compounds, albeit at dose levels by far exceeding estimated human exposures. The overall database was generally inconsistent or inconclusive. Based on this systematic review, the SKLM concludes that there is at present no convincing evidence for a causal association between dietary intake of glycation compounds and adverse health effects.

Abstract
Diabetes-mediated development of micro and macro-vascular complications is a global concern. One of the factors is hyperglycemia induced the non-enzymatic formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Accumulated AGEs bind with receptor of AGEs (RAGE) causing inflammation, oxidative stress and extracellular matrix proteins (ECM) modifications responsible for fibrosis, cell damage and tissue remodeling. Moreover, during hyperglycemia, aldosterone (Aldo) secretion increases, and its interaction with mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) through genomic and non-genomic pathways leads to inflammation and fibrosis. Extensive research on individual involvement of AGEs-RAGE and Aldo-MR pathways in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN), cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and impaired immune system has led to the discovery of therapeutic drugs. Despite mutual repercussions, the cross-talk between AGEs-RAGE and Aldo-MR pathways remains unresolved. Hence, this review focuses on the possible interaction of Aldo and glycation in DN and CVDs, considering the clinical significance of mutual molecular targets.

The Prolonged Activation of the p65 Subunit of the NF-Kappa-B Nuclear Factor Sustains the Persistent Effect of Advanced Glycation End Products on Inflammatory Sensitization in Macrophages.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) prime macrophages for lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. We investigated the persistence of cellular AGE-sensitization to LPS, considering the nuclear content of p50 and p65 nuclear factor kappa B (NFKB) subunits and the expression of inflammatory genes. Macrophages treated with control (C) or AGE-albumin were rested for varying intervals in medium alone before being incubated with LPS. Comparisons were made using one-way ANOVA or Student t-test (n = 6). AGE-albumin primed macrophages for increased responsiveness to LPS, resulting in elevated levels of TNF, IL-6, and IL-1beta (1.5%, 9.4%, and 5.6%, respectively), compared to C-albumin. TNF, IL-6, and IL-1 beta secretion persisted for up to 24 h even after the removal of AGE-albumin (area under the curve greater by 1.6, 16, and 5.2 times, respectively). The expressions of Il6 and RelA were higher 8 h after albumin removal, and Il6 and Abca1 were higher 24 h after albumin removal. The nuclear content of p50 remained similar, but p65 showed a sustained increase (2.9 times) for up to 24 h in AGE-albumin-treated cells. The prolonged activation of the p65 subunit of NFKB contributes to the persistent effect of AGEs on macrophage inflammatory priming, which could be targeted for therapies to prevent complications based on the AGE-RAGE-NFKB axis.

Akt Signaling and Nitric Oxide Synthase as Possible Mediators of the Protective Effect of N-acetyl-L-cysteine in Prediabetes Induced by Sucrose. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1215.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate possible mechanisms involved in the protective effect of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) on hepatic endocrine-metabolic, oxidative stress, and inflammatory changes in prediabetic rats. For that, normal male Wistar rats (60 days old) were fed for 21 days with 10% sucrose in their drinking water and 5 days of NAC administration (50 mg/kg, i.p.) and thereafter, we determined: serum glucose, insulin, transaminases, uric acid, and triglyceride levels; hepatic fructokinase and glucokinase activities, glycogen content, lipogenic gene expression; enzymatic and non-enzymatic oxidative stress, insulin signaling pathway, and inflammatory markers. Results showed that alterations evinced in sucrose-fed rats (hypertriglyceridemia, hyperinsulinemia, and high liver fructokinase activity together with increased liver lipogenic gene expression and oxidative stress and inflammatory markers) were prevented by NAC administration. P-endothelial nitric oxide synthase (P-eNOS)/eNOS and pAKT/AKT ratios, decreased by sucrose ingestion, were restored after NAC treatment. In conclusion, the results suggest that NAC administration improves glucose homeostasis, oxidative stress, and inflammation in prediabetic rats probably mediated by modulation of the AKT/NOS pathway. Administration of NAC may be an effective complementary strategy to alleviate or prevent oxidative stress and inflammatory responses observed in type 2 diabetes at early stages of its development (prediabetes).

Aerobic Exercise Training Reduces Atherogenesis Induced by Low-Sodium Diet in LDL Receptor Knockout Mice. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11102023. [PMID: 36290746 PMCID: PMC9598599 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11102023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the efficacy of aerobic exercise training (AET) in the prevention of dyslipidemia, insulin resistance (IR), and atherogenesis induced by severe low-sodium (LS) diet. LDL receptor knockout (LDLR KO) mice were fed a low-sodium (LS) (0.15% NaCl) or normal-sodium (NS; 1.27% NaCl) diet, submitted to AET in a treadmill, 5 times/week, 60 min/day, 15 m/min, for 90 days, or kept sedentary. Blood pressure (BP), plasma total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) concentrations, lipoprotein profile, and insulin sensitivity were evaluated at the end of the AET protocol. Lipid infiltration, angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1), receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), carboxymethyllysine (CML), and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) contents as well as gene expression were determined in the brachiocephalic trunk. BP and TC and gene expression were similar among groups. Compared to the NS diet, the LS diet increased vascular lipid infiltration, CML, RAGE, 4-HNE, plasma TG, LDL-cholesterol, and VLDL-TG. Conversely, the LS diet reduced vascular AT1 receptor, insulin sensitivity, HDL-cholesterol, and HDL-TG. AET prevented arterial lipid infiltration; increases in CML, RAGE, and 4-HNE contents; and reduced AT1 levels and improved LS-induced peripheral IR. The current study showed that AET counteracted the deleterious effects of chronic LS diet in an atherogenesis-prone model by ameliorating peripheral IR, lipid infiltration, CML, RAGE, 4-HNE, and AT1 receptor in the intima-media of the brachiocephalic trunk. These events occurred independently of the amelioration of plasma-lipid profile, which was negatively affected by the severe dietary-sodium restriction.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies demonstrate the role of early and intensive glycemic control in the prevention of micro and macrovascular disease in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Hyperglycemia elicits several pathways related to the etiopathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD), including the generation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). In this review, we revisit the role played by AGEs in CVD based in clinical trials and experimental evidence. Mechanistic aspects concerning the recognition of AGEs by the advanced glycosylation end product-specific receptor (AGER) and its counterpart, the dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide-protein glycosyltransferase (DDOST) and soluble AGER are discussed. A special focus is offered to the AGE-elicited pathways that promote cholesterol accumulation in the arterial wall by enhanced oxidative stress, inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress and impairment in the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT).

Abstract
In recent decades, complex and exquisite pathways involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and inflammatory stress responses have been demonstrated to participate in the development and progression of numerous diseases, among them diabetes mellitus (DM). In those pathways, several players participate in both, reflecting a complicated interplay between ER and inflammatory stress. In DM, ER and inflammatory stress are involved in both the pathogenesis of the loss of glycemic control and the development of degenerative complications. Furthermore, hyperglycemia increases the generation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which in turn refeed ER and inflammatory stress, contributing to worsening glycemic homeostasis and to accelerating the development of DM complications. In this review, we present the current knowledge regarding AGEs-induced and ER/inflammation-mediated regulation of the expression of GLUT4 (solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 4), as a marker of glycemic homeostasis and of cardiovascular disease (CVD) development/progression, as a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in DM.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) play an important role in oxidative stress and inflammation, processes implicated in the development and progression of kidney dysfunction. In the present study, we investigated the participation of the pro-oxidant protein thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) and of epigenetic mechanisms on kidney tissue (in vivo, in non-diabetic rats) and on terminally differentiated glomerular podocytes (in vitro) chronically exposed to AGEs. AGEs induced total kidney and glomerular TXNIP expression and decreased H3K27me3 content. Concomitant treatment with the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) reversed only the increased TXNIP expression. TXNIP expression positively correlated with proteinuria and negatively correlated with H3K27me3 content. In vitro studies in podocytes showed that 72 h exposure to AGEs decreased nephrin expression and increased Txnip, Nox4, Col4a1, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers (Acta2, Snail1, and Tgfb1). Podocytes treatment with NAC reversed Nox4, Col4a1, Acta2, and Tgfb1 increased expression but did not abrogate the reduced expression of nephrin. MiR-29a expression was downregulated by AGEs in vivo, but not in vitro. In conclusion, treatment of non-diabetic rats with AGEs induced TXNIP expression and decreased the contents of the repressive epigenetic mark H3K27me3 and of miR-29a, potentially driving injury to glomerular filtration barrier and podocytes dysfunction.

Abstract
Prediabetes (intermediate hyperglycemia) consists of two abnormalities, impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) detected by a standardized 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Individuals with isolated IGT or combined IFG and IGT have increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Diagnosing prediabetes early and accurately is critical in order to refer high-risk individuals for intensive lifestyle modification. However, there is currently no international consensus for diagnosing prediabetes with HbA1c or glucose measurements based upon American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria that identify different populations at risk for progressing to diabetes. Various caveats affecting the accuracy of interpreting the HbA1c including genetics complicate this further. This review describes established methods for detecting glucose disorders based upon glucose and HbA1c parameters as well as novel approaches including the 1-hour plasma glucose (1-h PG), glucose challenge test (GCT), shape of the glucose curve, genetics, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), measures of insulin secretion and sensitivity, metabolomics, and ancillary tools such as fructosamine, glycated albumin (GA), 1,5- anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG). Of the approaches considered, the 1-h PG has considerable potential as a biomarker for detecting glucose disorders if confirmed by additional data including health economic analysis. Whether the 1-h OGTT is superior to genetics and omics in providing greater precision for individualized treatment requires further investigation. These methods will need to demonstrate substantially superiority to simpler tools for detecting glucose disorders to justify their cost and complexity.

Geriatr Gerontol Int 2019; 19:1017-1022. [PMID: 31522460 DOI: 10.1111/ggi.13762] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2019] [Revised: 08/01/2019] [Accepted: 08/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
AIM Advanced glycation end-products are important factors in muscle function and physical performance among older adults. However, the association between sarcopenia and urinary carboxymethyl-lysine (uCML) levels remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship among uCML levels, skeletal muscle mass, physical performance and sarcopenia among community-dwelling older adults. METHODS This work was a community-based cross-sectional study. The participants were recruited from the Taichung Community Health Study-Elderly and were followed up until 2017. A total of 104 participants underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry examination, physical performance tests and measurement of uCML levels. After the natural log transformation of the uCML levels, Pearson's correlation coefficient and a general linear model were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS The mean uCML levels of older men and women were 1.34 μg/mg and 1.63 μg/mg creatinine, respectively. After multivariate adjustment, grip strength among older women significantly decreased as uCML levels increased. Participants with uCML levels and Timed Up and Go test values higher than the median had a 13.76-fold risk of acquiring sarcopenia compared with those whose corresponding variables were lower than the median after adjusting for age, sex, body fat percentage, and serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. CONCLUSIONS uCML levels were negatively associated with grip strength among older women. The joint association of uCML and Timed Up and Go test values was correlated with the risk of acquiring sarcopenia among older adults. This finding suggests that uCML levels can be used as a biomarker for screening sarcopenia and as a strategy for treating sarcopenia. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2019; 19: 1017-1022.

Advanced glycation end products-induced insulin resistance involves repression of skeletal muscle GLUT4 expression. Sci Rep 2018; 8:8109. [PMID: 29802324 PMCID: PMC5970140 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-26482-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2017] [Accepted: 05/14/2018] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Little is known about advanced glycation end products (AGEs) participation in glucose homeostasis, a process in which skeletal muscle glucose transporter GLUT4 (Scl2a4 gene) plays a key role. This study investigated (1) the in vivo and in vitro effects of AGEs on Slc2a4/GLUT4 expression in skeletal muscle of healthy rats, and (2) the potential involvement of endoplasmic reticulum and inflammatory stress in the observed regulations. For in vivo analysis, rats were treated with advanced glycated rat albumin (AGE-albumin) for 12 weeks; for in vitro analysis, soleus muscles from normal rats were incubated with bovine AGE-albumin for 2.5 to 7.5 hours. In vivo, AGE-albumin induced whole-body insulin resistance; decreased (~30%) Slc2a4 mRNA and GLUT4 protein content; and increased (~30%) the nuclear content of nuclear factor NF-kappa-B p50 subunit (NFKB1), and cellular content of 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78). In vitro, incubation with AGE-albumin decreased (~50%) the Slc2a4/GLUT4 content; and increased cellular content of GRP78/94, phosphorylated-IKK-alpha/beta, nuclear content of NFKB1 and RELA, and the nuclear protein binding into Slc2a4 promoter NFKB-binding site. The data reveal that AGEs impair glucose homeostasis in non-diabetic states of increased AGEs concentration; an effect that involves activation of endoplasmic reticulum- and inflammatory-stress and repression of Slc2a4/GLUT4 expression.

Abstract
AIM Hypothalamic obese rats are characterized by pre-diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperadiposity, inflammation and, liver dysmetabolism with oxidative stress (OS), among others. We studied endocrine-metabolic dysfunctions and, liver OS and inflammation in both monosodium l-glutamate (MSG)-neonatally damaged and control litter-mate (C) adult male rats, either chronically treated with N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine since weaned (C-NAC and MSG-NAC) or not. METHODOLOGY We evaluated circulating TBARS, glucose, insulin, triglycerides, uric acid (UA) and, aspartate and alanine amino-transferase; insulin sensitivity markers (HOMA indexes, Liver Index of Insulin Sensitivity -LISI-) were calculated and liver steps of the insulin-signaling pathway were investigated. Additionally, we monitored liver OS (protein carbonyl groups, GSH and iNOS level) and inflammation-related markers (COX-2 and TNFα protein content; gene expression level of Il1b, Tnfα and Pai-1); and carbohydrate and lipid metabolic functions (glucokinase/fructokinase activities and, mRNA levels of Srebp1c, Fas and Gpat). KEY FINDINGS Chronic NAC treatment in MSG rats efficiently decreased the high circulating levels of triglycerides, UA, transaminases and TBARS, as well as peripheral (high insulinemia and HOMA indexes) and liver (LISI and the P-AKT:AKT and P-eNOS:eNOS protein ratio values) insulin-resistance. Moreover, NAC therapy in MSG rats prevented liver dysmetabolism by decreasing local levels of OS and inflammation markers. Finally, NAC-treated MSG rats retained normal liver glucokinase and fructokinase activities, and Srebp1c, Fas and Gpat (lipogenic genes) expression levels. SIGNIFICANCE Our study strongly supports that chronic oral antioxidant therapy (NAC administration) prevented the development of pre-diabetes, dyslipidemia, and inflamed-dysmetabolic liver in hypothalamic obese rats by efficiently decreasing high endogenous OS.
