Sentences with phrase «glycation damages the protein»

Not exact matches

The test, which could be available to patients within two years, identifies the chemical signatures found in the plasma of blood joint proteins damaged by oxidation, nitration and glycation; the modification of proteins with oxygen, nitrogen and sugar molecules.

Advanced glycation end - products promote oxidative damage to proteins, lipids and nucleotides.

Glycation causes damage to the body's proteins, which can result in inflammatory diseases like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and dementia.

These damaged proteins are called advanced glycation end products (AGEs).

Elevated blood sugar leads to glycation (basically, oxidation and caramelization of blood sugars), which leads to sticky sugar - protein and sugar - lipid complexes that damage the lining of the blood vessels and other organs leading to their dysfunction.

The biological mechanisms of lifespan extension through calorie restriction are not fully understood, but researchers say it may involve alterations in energy metabolism (as mentioned above), reduced oxidative damage, improvements in insulin sensitivity, reduction of glycation, modulation of protein metabolism, downregulation of pro-inflammatory genes and functional changes in both neuroendocrine and autonomic nervous systems.

Increases advanced glycation end products wherein sugar molecules attach to proteins and end up damaging them

Surplus glucose relentlessly reacts with your body's proteins, causing damaging glycation reactions while fueling the fires of chronic inflammation and inciting the production of destructive free radicals (Basta 2004; Uribarri 2005; Toma 2009).

In addition, to stop the damaging «glycation» reactions that can take place when dietary carbohydrates react with proteins in the body, you can also take about 50 - 100 mg daily of vitamin B6 pyridoxine, which most multi-vitamins contain (and meal replacement powders like LivingFuel SuperGreens).

The high blood sugar causes damage to proteins (AGE or Advanced Glycation End - Products), which then raise the risk of dying.

As a bonus, olive leaf extract protects against the damage of high blood sugar — against advanced glycation end products (AGEs), free radicals which form when elevated blood glucose levels react with proteins and run wild.
