pubmed-article:16936331 | pubmed:abstractText | Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), including Nepsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine-protein adducts (CML) are involved in micro/macrovascular changes and are co-localized with adhesion molecules in inflamed tissues. Serum levels of CML were investigated in systemic sclerosis (SSc) characterized by microvascular modifications and correlated with indices of micro/macrovascular damage. | lld:pubmed |
