Abstract：
:Antibodies directed against advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) formed during a Maillard reaction have been generated and characterized. Since protein-bound AGEs recognized by the antibodies were labile to acid hydrolysis, the antibodies were further characterized by using the AGE-alpha-acetyl-L-lysine methyl ester (AGE-ALME) with a brown and fluorescent property as well as the AGE-proteins. The antibodies reacted with fluorescent compounds, rather than brown pigment compounds, in the AGE-ALME. The fluorescent compounds in the AGE-ALME were separated into four fluorescent compounds by reversed-phase thin layer chromatography (TLC). Of the fluorescent compounds tested, compound 3 (Rf = 0.63), as designated on a TLC plate, showed the highest affinity for the antibodies. In addition, the antibody recognition to the cross-linked oligomers with fluorescence in the AGE-protein was investigated by using bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase), which is known as a model protein for studying AGE-induced cross-linking. Fluorescence in the AGE-RNase existed in both of the oligomers and the monomer. The cross-linked oligomers exhibited higher affinity to the antibodies than did the monomer, which has a similar degree of fluorescent intensity. These results indicate that our antibodies against cross-linked protein-bound AGEs may serve as a useful tool to elucidate pathophysiological roles of advanced Maillard reaction in diabetic complications and aging processes.
