N-acetylcysteine inhibits atherosclerosis by correcting glutathione-dependent methylglyoxal elimination and dicarbonyl/oxidative stress in the aorta of diabetic mice

In diabetic animal models, high plasma/tissue levels of methylglyoxal (MG) are implicated in atherosclerosis. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a cysteine prodrug that replenishes intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels, which can increase the elimination of MG in diabetes mellitus (DM). The present study in...
