abstract：:Cigarette smoking is associated with a number of fatal diseases, including cancer of different organs. A number of oxoaldehydes are found in cigarette smoke, among which methylglyoxal (MG) is known to cause toxicity to cells upon accumulation. In biological systems, MG is converted to s-d-lactoylglutathione by glyoxal...
