“…One explanation for these discrepant results may be the nature of the tests used in the two studies to assess direct toxicity of AGE-BSA in pericytes [25]. The finding that AGE-BSA is also toxic to aortic endothelial cells but only at the high concentration of 62.5 m g/ml is in agreement with Tezuka et al [26] showing that AGE-BSA at 50 m g/ml inhibits the proliferation of cultured human umbilical cord vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Despite the low level of AGE-mediated toxicity in BAEC, it is possible that exposure to AGE-BSA may have resulted in changes to the cytoskeleton and cell permeability as reported by Esposito et al [10].…”

“…Previous studies have reported that AGE-modified proteins have a number of biological effects [28], endothelial cell migration and tube formation [26], alteration in cell shape/ cytoskeleton along with perturbation of barrier and coagulant function [10]. Most of these effects are suggested to be mediated by the interaction of AGE with AGE-specific receptors which are localized on various cell types, including smooth muscle cells, monocytes, macrophages and mesangial cells [29].…”

“…Although the AGE-induced changes appeared to be modest, chronic exposure to AGE accumulated during prolonged hyperglycemic states may give rise to local deterioration in the growth or function of the endothelium. Tezuka et al reported that similar concentrations of AGE stimulated the migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells but did not affect their proliferation [11]. Although no explanation as to why the endothelial cell growth under AGE differed between the two studies is available, the differences in the type of growth supplements employed or in the AGE preparations may be responsible.…”

“…After long term incubation, these early products are converted to advanced glycation end products (AGE), 1 which are characterized physicochemically by fluorescence, brown color, and intra-or inter-molecular crosslinking (1, 2), and biologically by specific recognition by AGE receptors. The presence of AGE in several human tissues suggests that they may be involved in the aging process, diabetic complications, and atherosclerosis (3-11).The physiological significance of AGE has been analyzed primarily using AGE structure(s) expressed in vivo and AGEbinding proteins or AGE receptors, through which AGE are believed to elicit several biological phenomena in monocytes/ macrophages (12-17), endothelial cells (18,19), and mesangial cells (20,21). Several AGE receptors have been characterized (22-25), one of which is a novel 35-kDa protein (called RAGE) from bovine lung endothelium that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily (23).…”
