Capsaicin, an active ingredient from chilli peppers, attenuates glycative stress and restores sRAGE levels in diabetic rats

The effects of capsaicin (CAPS) on protein glycation and the subsequent formation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) were assessed. In vitro glycation assays showed that CAPS retards the late stages of glycation and crosslinking reaction. The dual mechanisms of action involving antioxidant and...
