The present invention relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting nonenzymatic cross-linking (protein aging) which contain novel 2-substituted-2-imidazolines. Accordingly, a composition is disclosed which comprises an agent capable of inhibiting the formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts of target proteins by reacting with the carbonyl moiety of the early glycosylation product of such target proteins formed by their initial glycosylation. The method comprises contacting the target protein with the composition. Both industrial and therapeutic applications for the invention are envisioned, as food spoilage and animal protein aging can be treated.
本发明涉及含有新型2-取代-2-咪唑啉的组合物和抑制非酶交联(蛋白质老化)的方法。因此,本发明公开了一种组合物,其中包括一种能够通过与目标蛋白质的早期糖基化产物的羰基部分反应来抑制目标蛋白质的高级糖基化终产物形成的药剂。该方法包括将目标蛋白质与该组合物接触。本发明预见了工业和治疗应用,因为可以治疗食品变质和动物蛋白质老化。
