Methylglyoxal (MG) is a highly reactive dicarbonyl compound. It is produced by processes like glycolysis, glucose autooxidation, lipid peroxidation, and protein glycation. It is a major precursor of advanced glycation end products (AGE). It also exacerbates oxidative stress in the organism. Althoug…
