15845907 Basta G, Lazzerini G, Del Turco S, Ratto GM, Schmidt AM, De Caterina R: At least 2 distinct pathways generating reactive oxygen species mediate vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 induction by advanced glycation end products. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2005 Jul;25(7):1401-7. Epub 2005 Apr 21.

OBJECTIVE: The interaction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) with their main receptor RAGE in endothelial cells induces intracellular generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1.
The inhibition of NAD (P) H oxidase by apocynin and diphenylene iodonium, and of the mitochondrial electron transport system at complex II by thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTFA), significantly inhibited both AGE-induced ROS production and VCAM-1 expression, whereas these effects were potentiated by rotenone and antimycin A, specific inhibitors of mitochondrial complex I and III, respectively.
