Nepsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) is known to be formed by oxidative cleavage of Amadori products between C-2 and C-3 of the carbohydrate chain. We report here that CML formation from Amadori compounds is highly accelerated under alkaline conditions. Incubation of glycated human serum albumin (HSA) in 0.1 N NaOH led to the formation of CML whereas glycated HSA reduced by NaCNBH3 or non-glycated HSA did not generate CML. Nalpha-t-butyloxycarbonyl-Nepsilon-fructoselysine (Boc-FL), a model compound of Amadori product, was converted to CML under alkaline conditions. CML level of human sera (n=224) preincubated with 0.1 N NaOH correlated well with glycated albumin value (r=0.912) and hemoglobin A1c (r=0.797).
Nε-(羧甲基)赖氨酸(CML)已知是由碳水化合物链C-2和C-3之间的阿马多里产物氧化裂解形成的。我们在此报告,在碱性条件下,由阿马多里化合物形成CML的过程会大大加速。将糖化人血清白蛋白(HSA)在0.1 N NaOH中孵育会导致CML的形成,而经NaCNBH3还原的糖化HSA或未糖化的HSA则不会产生CML。阿马多里产物的模型化合物Nα-叔丁氧羰基-Nε-果糖赖氨酸(Boc-FL)在碱性条件下会转化为CML。用0.1 N NaOH预孵育的人血清(n = 224)的CML水平与糖化白蛋白值(r = 0.912)和血红蛋白A1c(r = 0.797)密切相关。
