A Study on Modification of Human Albumin by Proteomic Technique
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a heterogeneous group of complex compounds which may play a role in the pathogenesis of chronic complications associated with diabetes and aging. Glucose has the ability to crosslink proteins through creation of AGEs. This study was carried out on glycated human albumin (HA) by glucose which were analyzed by LC/MS with the aim of identifying specific peptides from glycated HA. Our objective was to find typical peptides as biomarker for clinical diagnose of diabetes and aging. This method was in vitro incubation of HA with glucose of different concentrations. Glycated and unglycated HA were digested by trypsin. AGE-peptides originated by enzymatic digestion were analysed by LC/MS. Analysis of the LC/MS data show that there were differences between peptides of glycated and unglycated HA. Some peptides detected in unglycated HA cannot be found in glycated HA. These typical peptides were considered as important markers for glycated HA.
