Glycation of LDL by Methylglyoxal Increases Arterial Atherogenicity: A Possible Contributor to Increased Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Diabetes

OBJECTIVE: To study whether modification of LDL by methylglyoxal (MG), a potent arginine-directed glycating agent that is increased in diabetes, is associated with increased atherogenicity. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Human LDL was isolated and modified by MG in vitro to minimal extent (MG(min)-LDL...
