Abstract:
The concentration and accumulation rate of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the body are highly correlated with glycometabolic disorders. Therefore, the clinical detection of AGEs is of great value for the early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of these diseases. However, due to the complexity of its structure, the diversity of glycosylation sites, and the limitations of existing detection methods, there is still a lack of widely available detection methods in clinical practice. Starting from the structure and classification of AGEs and the value of clinical testing, this article summarizes current status of various laboratory detection methods of AGEs, and the deficiencies and challenges of these testing methods, future directions are further prospected.
