Glycated proteins accumulated in vivo may provide stable active sites for catalyzing the formation of free radicals hence glycation and glycoxidation are intimately interrelated (Baynes and Thorpe,2000;Wiernsperger,2004;Lunceford and Gugliucci,2005)
Glycated proteïene opgebou in vivo kan stabiel aktiewe terreine vir kataliseer die vorming van vrye radikale vandaar glycation en glycoxidation intiem interafhanklik (Baynes en Thorpe, 2000; Wiernsperger 2004; Lunceford en Gugliucci, 2005).
