title: Synthesis of a novel radical trapping and carbonyl group trapping anti-AGE agent: a pyridoxamine analogue for inhibiting advanced glycation (AGE) and lipoxidation (ALE) end products.
abstract: [structure: see text] Pyridoxamine is known to be an effective inhibitor of both advanced glycation (AGE) and advanced lipoxidation (ALE) end products. The synthesis of a novel multifunctional AGE and ALE inhibitor, 6-dimethylaminopyridoxamine (dmaPM, 11) is described. The 6-dimethylamino substituent increases the radical trapping ability of pyridoxamine's phenolic group. Results obtained during ribose glycations show that both the new dmaPM and a known strong radical trapping agent, 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox), prevent intermolecular protein cross-linking more effectively than pyridoxamine (PM).
