Rage: A Novel Cellular Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products

Abstract: Exposure of proteins to reducing sugars results in nonenzymatic glycation with the ultimate formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). One means through which AGEs modulate cellular functions is through binding to specific cell surface acceptor molecules. The receptor for AGEs (RAGE) is such a receptor and is a newly identified member of the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed on endothelial cells (ECs), mononuclear phagocytes (MPs), and vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in both vivo and in vitro.… Show more

“…The effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus and smoking on periodontal parameters and salivary matrix metalloproteinase-8 levels (5). AGEs cause formation of greater amount of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) as they induce the release of cytokines through a multistep process which leads to more MMP being secreted.…”

“…In support of this hypothesis, recent immunological studies using anti-AGE antibodies in several human tissues suggest that AGEs may be involved in aging processes, diabetic complications, and atherosclerosis (85). AGEs have been postulated to modulate cellular function through binding to specific cell surface receptors termed RAGE (receptors for advanced glycation end-products) (86). The binding of AGEs to RAGE elicits several responses, such as induction of cytokines, cell growth in macrophages, and enhancement of anglogenesis, and results in induction of cellular oxidant stress (86,87).…”
