Glycation-induced inactivation and loss of antigenicity of catalase and superoxide dismutase

Abstract: Oxidative mechanisms are thought to have a major role in several biological phenomena, including cataract formation and diabetic complications. Here we investigate the inactivation of catalase and superoxide dismutase, both powerful antioxidant enzymes, by sugars of different glycating abilities, and the loss of antigenicity that was monitored by the loss of activity after immunoprecipitation with monospecific antibodies. The antigenicity of non-glycated or glycated enzymes separated by affinity chromatography… Show more

“…The decrease in CAT activity could have resulted from in activation by glycation of enzyme [20]. In the present study, extract treated groups showed a significant increase in the hepatic and renal SOD and CAT activities of the diabetic rats.…”

“…CAT is a hemeprotein which catalyses the reduction of H 2 O 2 and protects the tissues from highly reactive hydroxyl radicals. The decreased activity of CAT during diabetes may be due to excess production of H 2 O 2 (Yan and Harding, 1997). Drug treatment resulted in a significant elevation of intestinal CAT in diabetic rats proving that AGLE can reduce glycation of enzymes or ROS and improve the antioxidant status.…”
