TL;DR

Investigation of the formation and quantitative significance of Nω-(carboxyethyl)arginine (CEA), an underexplored MGO-derived arginine adduct indicates that CEA is a reliable marker for evaluating MGO-mediated protein degeneration and dicarbonyl stress in vitro and in vivo.

Glyoxalase 1 Regulates Methylglyoxal-Derived Nucleic Acid Adduct Burden

It is found that an elevated CEdG adduct burden is associated with increased DNA strand breaks, whereas increased CEG modifications are associated with reduced translational efficiency and mechanistically link metabolic stress-derived chemical lesions to genome instability and translational dysfunction.

Methylglyoxal as a Convergent Mediator of Diabetic Complications: Generation, Protein Targets, Tissue Distribution, and Therapeutic Reduction—A Clinically Oriented Mechanistic Synthesis

It is proposed that routine parameters such as gamma-glutamyl transferase and red cell distribution width may serve as accessible proxies for MGO burden, with the explicit caveat that these mappings require prospective validation and do not constitute a validated clinical instrument.

Lysine iminylation derived from ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Collective evidence from isotope tracing as well as genetic, dietary, and pharmacological manipulation experiments uncovered that C3-iminylation originates from cytochrome P450 (CYP)-mediated oxidation of omega-3 fatty acids, enabling further exploration of their biological and clinical implications.
